PoliticsPanic: Tompolo In Fresh Trouble Over Fraud, 25 Witnesses Ready To Confess by boman2014(op): 4:06pm On Jan 24, 2016
Ex-Niger Delta militant leader, Government Ekemupolo, is
reportedly in more trouble, as fresh charges of fraud have
been leveled against him.


[img]http://i.onthe.io/vllkytaHR0cDovL2kuY2RubmFpai5jb20vby81TENqd2VBT3lJZjVqQTJLYk5YS3h3a00uanBn.prx.c6ede2f2.jpg[/img]

Government Ekpemupolo, also known as Tompolo
The ex-warlord popularly called Tompolo, has allegedly been
charged alongside 12 others. They are to face a 22-count
charge filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC).

The charges were filed on Friday, January 22, at a Federal
High Court in Lagos. They bordered on stealing, advanced fee
fraud and money laundering to the tune of over N46bn.

Those to be arraigned alongside Tompolo in the fresh 22
counts is a former Director-General of NIMASA, Patrick
Akpobolokemi, whose four brothers – Victor, Nobert,
Emmanuel and Clement – who are still at large, were said to
have aided the suspects to commit the fraud.
The other suspects are Kime Engozu, Josephine Otuaga, Rita
Uruakpa and Pondi Kestin.

This new charges come, eight days after Justice Ibrahim Buba
ordered the arrest of the embattled ex-militant lord, for his
failure to appear on Thursday, January 14.
Tompolo was to appear to take his plea on a separate 40-
count of alleged N34bn fraud earlier filed against him and nine
others by the EFCC.

According to The Punch, EFCC listed 25 witnesses that will
testify against Tompolo and his 12 co-suspects when trial
begins on the fresh charges which are yet to be assigned to
any judge.
It is gathered that among the witnesses are seven EFCC
investigators, officials of the Nigerian Maritime Administration
and Safety Agency (NIMASA), officials of the Ministry of
Transport, Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development,
and officials of Bureau of Public Procurement.

Also to give testimony against the suspects are officials of four
commercial banks in Nigeria.

Meanwhile, there are calls to declare Tompolo a wanted
fugitive in the country. One of such calls has been made by
Prince Arerebo Bodi, a chieftain of the ruling All Progressives
Congress (APC) in Bayelsa state.

Chief Bodi who believes Tompolo is wasting time by playing
the “blame game”, told the EFCC to declare the ex-militant
leader wanted , if he refuses to submit himself the commission.

CrimeMan Stabs 7 Months Pregnant Neighbour After She Catches Him Trying To Rob Her by boman2014(op):
A mother of two, Mrs. Oyinyechi Chinaka, who was 7 months
pregnant with her 3rd child, was reportedly stabbed several
times by her neighbor when she caught him rummaging
through her purse and trying to steal money from it in her
home on Anjorin street, Mushin, Lagos. She was quickly
rushed to Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH), Idi-
Araba, but she lost the pregnancy.


[img]http://2.bp..com/-MEnyRLSOCDk/VqRP8mlpUTI/AAAAAAAIGJg/0hBCG9qYcxw/s400/1a.gif[/img]

The suspect was said to have stabbed Mrs. Chinaka with a
kitchen knife severally times on her stomach, arm and neck
and left to bleed to death.

The victim, who spoke to Sunday Vanguard on her hospital
bed said:



“ I was at home that fateful day when my children
came to me in the kitchen where I was cooking to say
electricity had been restored, and that I should come
to the living room to play a cartoon video, called
Power Ranger, for them. I left what I was doing and
went to operate the television for them. But to my
astonishment, I saw the neighbour in my room. He
was going through my purse to steal money. I caught
him red handed. He was shocked .I said, ‘ So, you are
the one stealing all the money that has been missing in
this compound’. I was shocked because I trusted him
and we had never quarrelled before. I usually left my
children with him and he entered my house the way
he liked, but for him to be stealing was shocking to
me. As I was still talking to him, he ran out of the
room and before I knew what was happening, he
came back with a kitchen knife and told me that he
will stab me with it. I thought he was joking but to my
shock, he moved close and, as I attempted to escape,
he held me and started stabbing me with the knife . He
stabbed me until I lost consciousness. I did not know
what happened next. I only found myself in hospital
and, after surgery, I was revived. My husband told me
that I was stabbed and would have died but for God’s
mercy. I could not feel my baby anymore. I was seven
months pregnant but my baby was not kicking”.



Mr. Henry , Mrs Chinaka’s brother- in-law, explained the
trouble the family went through to get medical help for her.
“When we heard that she was stabbed, the family
rallied round and rushed her to LUTH.

Doctors told us
that she had to use the only ICU machine but a lot of
people were on queue to use it. We ran helter skelter to
look for money to deposit for her treatment. We had to
deposit N500,000 and we have spent more than a
million naira on her treatment but nobody knew who
stabbed her and she was on life support machine for
months . Unknown to us, the assailant’s elder brother
had reported him to the police at the Olosan Police
Station and the police had charged him to court for
attempted murder without carrying out thorough
investigation nor did they visit the woman in the
hospital” , Henry said.


“ We have been prevailing on the police to include the
case of murder in the charge against the assailant
because the woman lost her seven months old
pregnancy due to the stabbing. The baby is in the
mortuary but the DPO of the Olosan Police Station and
the IPO are not ready to cooperate with us as they
went on to charge the boy to court without hearing
from the family of the victim. We are appealing to the
police to revisit the case and amend the charge to
include murder. We want justice to be done.”
In his statement to the police, the suspect said he was pushed
by an evil spirit to stab Mrs. Chinaka.

“I went to her house to steal money. She caught me
but a spirit told me to stab her, so I went to the kitchen
and took the knife and stabbed her with it. I stabbed
her because I did not want her to reveal to other
neighbours that I am a thief. I fled the house when I
saw blood gushing out. It was my brother who
exposed me. He saw a cut wound on my hand and he
questioned me where I got it. I had to confess to him
that I used knife to stab Mrs Chinaka. My elder brother
took me to the Olosan police station and I was
arrested”.

A human rights activist, Mr. Ishola Agbodemu, urged the
police to get justice for the victim especially since her unborn
baby was murdered.

“If she had not been stabbed and made to go through
such a terrible experience, she would have given birth
to a child by now. The child’s murder should not be
overlooked by the police”, Agbodemu said.

PoliticsSporadic Gun Shots: Gunmen Invade Lawmaker's House by boman2014(op): 7:12pm On Jan 21, 2016
The residence of a lawmaker representing Toro/Jama’a
constituency in the Bauchi State House of Assembly, Hon.
Tukur Ibrahim has been attacked by gunmen, NAN reports.


The state’s police command’s spokesman, DSP Haruna
Mohammed, who made this known to journalists, said the
attack occurred at about 1.20am on Thursday, January 21.


According to him, the armed men who were five in number
forced the main entrance of the house and started shooting
sporadically “with the intention of either robbing or kidnapping
their target.”

“On hearing the sound of gunshots, Police patrol team, led by
DPO Toro Division, rushed to the scene and engaged the
hoodlums in a fierce gun battle. The exchange of fire lasted for
more than 20 minutes, after which they (hoodlums) were
forced to abandon their mission and escape towards the
mountainous hills,” he said.


The force spokesman said there were no casualties in the gun
fight, adding that the police recovered one live and 16
expended 7.62mm ammunition from the scene.
Mohammed said efforts had been doubled to arrest the fleeing
suspects.

Meanwhile, last week, gunmen stormed Zalau village of Lame
District in Bauchi and kidnapped the 45-year-old wife of Hon.
C. Nuhu, a lawmaker representing Lame constituency at the
Bauchi House of Assembly.

Meanwhile, the former Ondo State House of Assembly Speaker
Victor Olabimtan, who was recently abducted, has narrated his
experience in Kidnappers den. Olabimtan who was held
hostage for three days said he was forced to trek barefooted in
the bush by his abductors.

Olabimtan was abducted on Sunday, January 10, at Kwali on
his way to Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), shortly
after he declared his intention to rule Ondo state.

Diezani Alison-Madueke, the controversial ex-oil minister, on
January 21, finally appeared before police in London, UK.

[img]http://i.onthe.io/vllkyt7qpf4vaa434.9d674c70.jpg[/img]

Diezani Alison-Madueke



PM news reports that Diezani was at the Charing Cross Police
Station, London to honour the summons by the authorities.
The former minister was given bail on the same condition
granted earlier and asked to return to the station on 21 June.


Alison-Madueke, who was one of the most influential officials
in the President Goodluck Jonathan government, was arrested
by the UK in October 2015 by the National Crimes Agency,
together with four other people.


The accusations against her were looting and money
laundering in the United Kingdom using a network of relatives
and businessmen.


President Muhammadu Buhari had restated many times that
his administration was determined to fully sanitize Nigeria’s oil
industry and make it totally free of corruption and shady deals.
He had also pledged to begin the prosecution of those involved
in shady deals in the oil sector.


Alison-Madueke has stayed away from Nigeria since Buhari
was sworn in as president.


The publisher of Ovation magazine, Dele Momodu, recently
released photos of cancer-stricken former minister.

PoliticsWhy We Handcuffed Olisa Metuh – Nigeria Prisons Service by boman2014(op): 3:23pm On Jan 20, 2016
Nigeria Prisons Service (NPS) has defended the manner the national publicity secretary, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Chief Olisa Metuh was treated when he appeared for his trial at the Federal High Court in Abuja in Handcuffs on Tuesday, January 19.

[img]http://i.onthe.io/vllkyt2hrtcgqbmakg.49b0f398.jpg[/img]

Olisa Metuh is alleged to have received N400m, part of the money meant for the procurement of arms, from the Office of the National Security Adviser in November 2014. According to the NPS, putting handcuffs was at the discretion of the prison officer, who supervised his court appearance.


The spokesperson for the NPS, Francis Enobore, who gave the clarification in a phone conversation with The Punch dismissed allegations by the PDP that the service mistreated Metuh all in a bid to play out a script orchestrated by President Muhammadu Buhari.

He said: “Handcuffing an inmate is at the discretion of the officer in-charge, depending on the security situation, the environment and intelligence report available to the officer. Sometimes they look at the atmosphere and take the necessary decision.
“If you suspect that the atmosphere, security-wise, may not be conducive to the inmates in your custody, you can use handcuffs; to avoid a situation where you have to start telling stories, you use your discretion to study the environment and take appropriate measures to ensure the safety of the inmates in your custody.

“Remember that we not only try to secure the inmate from escaping, we equally provide protection for the inmate. The officer in-charge must ensure that the life of the inmate is not jeopardised. It is the officer in-charge of the escort that studies the security environment and takes the decision to use handcuffs.”


Meanwhile, a Federal High Court in Abuja on Wednesday, January 20 adjourned its ruling on an application filed by the national publicity secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Olisa Metuh.
At the hearing today, the judge over the case, Okon Abang ruled that the respondents were still within time to file their reply briefs and therefore the matter was not ripe for hearing. He adjourned the case to Monday, January 25.

PoliticsFG Moves To Sell Pipelines, Begins Maintenace, Surveilance by boman2014(op): 5:30pm On Jan 18, 2016
The federal government has began aggressive fixing and
surveillance of pipelines as part of plans to meet up with the
January deadline for the privatization of pipelines across
Nigeria.


The Nation reports that a close source to the company hired by
the Pipelines and Products Marketing Company (PPMC) to
provide 24 hours surveillance for the pipelines revealed that the
move is aimed at improving the state of the refineries so as to
attract investors.

He said: “Based on my interaction with the management of the
PPMC, I can tell you authoritatively that the government is
serious with the issue of selling the pipelines to private entities,
with proven track records of managing facilities that are
previously owned by the state. Part of the seriousness is the
issue of putting the pipelines in good condition to stimulate the
confidence of investors.

“People may think that increased security network noticed
around pipelines in the country was a fluke. No, it is not. It was
introduced as part of efforts to provide a solid footing for the
privatization of the pipelines across the country.”



It would be recalled that the managing director, PPMC, Mrs
Esther Ogbue on a tour of some selected pipelines in Ogun
state said the government is putting in place modalities to
repositioning the pipelines for growth.

Ogbue noted that government is not leaving any stone
unturned, in order to ensure that the pipelines are well
managed and further benefit the operators, especially
marketers, who sell directly to consumers.

Meanwhile, the minister of state for petroleum resources,
Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu, had in December last year, said the

President Muhammadu Buhari has made massive reductions
in the revised 2016 national budget.

President Buhari addressing the Nigerian parliament. The
presidency has made a massive cut in the 2016 Budget
The presidency has drastically cut its N8.09 billion provision in
the 2016 budget for the purchase of various brands of vehicles
for State House operations during the year.


Premium Times reports that a review of the fresh copy of the
budget uploaded to the website of the Budget Office of the
Federation on Friday, January 15, showed a massive cut by
about 83.5% in the total allocation for the vehicles.
According to the revised budget, the government will now
spend only N1.34 billion to buy only five BMW saloon cars and
jeeps as well as buses for use by the Presidency during the
year.

Budget change




There were other adjustments asides reduction in the provision
for vehicles. Certain allocations to various departments and
units in the presidency contained in the original budget were
revised.


It would be recalled that a total of N7.52 billion was provided
previously for the purchase of various exotic vehicles, including
BMW saloon cars, in addition to another N566 million for the
procurement of vehicles, including 16-seater Toyota Hiace
coaster buses for the State House.


The Senate President, Bukola Saraki, had on Thursday,
January 14, accused the presidency
of substituting the original copy of the budget presented by
President Buhari to the National Assembly (NASS) on
December 22, 2015 with a new version.
Saraki’s claim comes following days of suspense which trailed
claims and counterclaims that the document was missing.
Meanwhile, the controversy surrounding Nigeria’s budget was
reportedly stirred by intents to defraud the nation.
Investigations reveal that between the 1,810-page budget
availed by Buhari and that presented by Ita Enang, the special
adviser to the president on Senate matters, there were huge
discrepancies.


Most of the differences between the two budgets concerned the
state house and the presidency in general.
The Cable reports that another N3.9 billion was included for
routine care of the presidential villa, while the money specified
for the procurement of BMW salon cars was reduced from N3.6
billion to N340 million

The President Muhammadu Buhari-led federal government has
concluded plans to make about N7.5million available to small
scale entrepreneurs engaged in tools fabrication in Aba, Abia
state.


This much was disclosed at the Aba Urban Development
summit at the Enitona Hotels Aba by Senator Enyinnaya
Abaribe, senator representing Abia south senatorial zone in the
National Assembly.


[img]http://i.onthe.io/vllkyt5n51ekld5f5.4d4f4dc0.jpg[/img]


President Muhammadu Buhari surely loves every Nigerian
regardless of their ethnicity.
According to Leadership, he informed that the federal
government was prepared to encourage local fabricators of
machine, tools, and spares.
Abaribe hailed the theme of the summit, “Extracting Practical
Solutions to Unlocking the Potentials of Aba” as being apt and
hoped that the recommendations will be adopted and
implemented.

Governor Okezie Ikpeazu while declaring the summit open,
stated that collective effort to return Aba, the commercial nerve
centre of the state to its former glory should be done as a
matter of urgency.

According to him, there was a time when every spare part that
could not be found any where in the country would be brought
to Aba and be fabricated locally, adding that some textiles
made in Aba were also exported to other parts of Africa and
international investors.


According to him, Aba remains one of the best places to invest
in and stated his readiness to provide investors the right
environment that would grow their businesses.
The Governor stated that Aba occupies a strategic position in
the economic development of not only Abia state but the South
East generally, adding that his dream is to develop Aba into a
mega city.
Dr Ikpeazu who said that a sea port and industrial parks are
part of the mega city of his dream which is realizable with the
cooperation of the business community.

While pledging to continue improving security in the state and
to do all that is possible to make Abia one of the safest places
in the country, the governor promised to enter into discussion
with Nigerpet on how to open up Aba to a modern city.


Ikpeazu also commended the residents of the town for their
cooperation and made a call for investors to establish 5 – Star
Hotels in Aba as a way of attracting investments into the state.
This news is a corroboration of a report which emerged last
week about the president showing love for the Igbos in spite of
widespread criticisms that he is only concerned about fellow
northerners.

PoliticsAudit Report That Caused Trouble For Top Armed Foreces Officers by boman2014(op): 9:53am On Jan 16, 2016
More revelations are expected to surface in the Army, Navy,
Ministry Of Defense and police following the ongoing probe
into the $2.1 billion arms procurement fund as contained in an
audit report exclusively obtained by Sahara Reporters on
Friday, January 15.

The former Chief of Defence Staff, Alex Badeh



The audit report was said to have detailed the huge fraud in the
procurement of arms which sparked President Muhammadu
Buhari’s order to the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) to investigate the role played by several
retired and serving officers as well as civilian contractors.
The report showed that the audit committee started work at the
end of August 2015, and looked at procurement of weapons
and equipment for the period from 2007 to 2015.


A committee that was set up examined documents and
information provided by different ministries, departments and
agencies. It also evaluated information it gathered from
organizations that provided funds in both local and foreign
currencies to the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA)
, the Defense Headquarters, and the various arms of Nigeria’s
military services.


The committee examined more than N643.8 billion in local
currency contributions to defense expenditure, with the foreign
currency component topping $2 billion. The audit committee
disclosed that their collation of defense funds did not “include
grants from State Governments and funds collected by the
DSS [Department of State Services] and [the] police.”
The audit report states: “in spite of this huge financial
intervention, there has not been significant improvement in the
capacity and capability of the Armed Forces.”


The committee, however, disclosed that it has covered the audit
of procurement activities by the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) and
ONSA, but hinted that those of the Ministry of Defense (MOD),
DHQ, Nigerian Army (NA) and Nigerian Navy (NN) are still
ongoing.


The audit committee stated in its report: “The procurement
activities funded by ONSA were wide ranging and included
acquisitions of platforms, weapons, ammunition and
equipment. Most of the ONSA-funded contracts were awarded
to Messrs Societe D’ Equipmente Internationaux (SEI) Nigeria
Limited and E-Force Interservices Nigeria Limited.”


The audit report showed that between February 2014 and May
2015, SEI “handled 38 ONSA funded contracts. Twenty-eight of
the contracts were for the NA while 10 were for the NAF.
However, the Committee could only establish the cost of three
of the NA contracts amounting to nine hundred and twenty-
nine million, five hundred and thirty-five thousand US Dollars
($929,535,000.00). The total cost for the 10 NAF contracts
was nine hundred and thirty million, five hundred thousand, six
hundred and ninety US Dollars ($930,500,690.00). Thus, a
total cost of one billion, eight hundred and sixty million, thirty-
five thousand, six hundred and ninety US Dollars ($
1,860,035,690.00) was expended by the ONSA to fund the NA
and NAF contracts.”

There were several anomalies discovered by the audit
committee and one of them is the absence of cost of defense
items in the NAF letters awarding the contracts.
“Rather, the vendors’ invoices that were all issued on the same
date (March, 19 2015) reflected such details. Additionally,
some of the award letters contained misleading delivery dates
that indicated fraudulent intention in the award process. The
observed discrepancies are in clear contravention of extant
procurement regulations,” it states.


According to the audit committee, its members are yet to
physically inspect the purchased equipment; hence it “thus
cannot confirm their delivery or serviceability status.” In
particular, the committee “particularly noted the issue of
procurement of two Mi-24 helicopters through SEI Nigeria Ltd
that were deployed to the North East Operations in
unserviceable condition which resulted in the unfortunate death
of the late Group Captain U.N. Akpan and Master Warrant
Officer Zabesan H.”

Among the contracts highlighted by the audit committee is that
of the $520 million awarded by the ONSA to E-Force Nigeria
Ltd in February 2014 for the supply of 12 combat helicopters,
rocket launchers and the training of Special Forces.
The committee discovered that the Central Bank of Nigeria
(CBN), following the directives of ONSA, mobilized E-Force
Nigeria Ltd with $146 million after the contracts were signed.
Even so, the NAF “has emphatically denied knowledge of the
procurement or delivery of the helicopters to the Service.”
The audit stated that the Nigerian Army “did not reflect the
procurement of the rocket launchers in its submission to the
Committee.”


The audit committee also emphasized the buying of four
Alpha-Jets in July 2014, and revealed that the ONSA awarded
a contract of more than $7 million to Messrs Abbatare Nigeria
Ltd, Konet Limited and Air USA for the procurement of the jets,
including weaponization, avionics upgrade and provision of
spares for the NAF. But it finds out that the jets were bought on
an “as is” basis through Mr. Uptal Nandy, a UK-based Indian
veterinary doctor. “As is,” “where is” meant that the equipment
would be supplied in its present condition “and the seller was
not obliged to carry out any repairs or maintenance on the
aircraft.”

The audit report further showed that the Nigerian Air Force
personnel “confirmed that only two of the aircraft were ferried
to Nigeria in April 2015 after cannibalization of engines from
NAF fleet.” It disclosed that the remaining two Alpha-jets were
“still in the USA awaiting repairs and clearance from the USA
State Department.”

The reports states that: “The audit uncovered a series of
suspicious transfers of funds through the CBN. The committee
stated that, between September 17, 2012 and March 9, 2015,
former National Security Adviser, retired Colonel Sambo
Dasuki, and ONSA’s former Director of Finance and
Administration, Mr. S.A. Salisu, ordered the CBN to transfer
various sums of money totaling more than €9.9 million. The
funds were transferred to “various accounts in Nigeria, Niger
Republic and UK for unascertained purposes.”


Meanwhile, officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) on Wednesday, January 13, sealed off the
Abuja house of former Chief of Defence Staff (CDS)
during President Jonathan’s administration, Air Chief Marshal
Alex Sabundu Badeh located at No 19 Kumasi Crescent, Wuse
II. The development is believed to be connected with the
ongoing probe into the $2.1 billion arms scam.

CrimeHow Mob Killed Police Officer In Lagos Yesterday (photo) by boman2014(op): 2:49pm On Jan 11, 2016
It was a gory sight yesterday, January 10, when a group of
angry mob shot a police officer to death in Agege area of
Lagos.



The Nation reports that the mob shot dead Police Corporal
Sunday David after he allegedly killed two persons in the area.
David, who was not in his police uniform was shot as he tried
to flee after the act.


Also known as Iku Sunday, David who was attached to the
Special Anti-Robbery Sqaud (SARS), got knocked down in
traffic around Elere, and was shot in Salawu Street, Orile-
Agege. at about 3pm.

Sunday David


The Nations reports that his blood splashed on the seats of his
newly bought Toyota Camry saloon car; the side glass and the
open roof were shattered.
An eyewitness said:
“It was at the point of searching that the police realised he was
one of their own. The man shot two people, one in the chest
and the other in the neck. He lives around here and they said
he was running when those chasing him caught up with him in
traffic and killed him.

“We heard that nothing was taken from his car. The people he
shot were rushed to the hospital but we later heard they died in
the hospital.”



Another eyewitness told The Nation that the late policeman just
opened fire on the victims on a football pitch. The late Sunday,
who is survived by three children, is in trouble because of the
guns found on him, according to senior police officer. This is
against Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Solomon Arase’s
direction which forbids policemen from going home with their
guns.


Police spokesman Joseph Offor, a Deputy Superintendent of
police (DSP), said one of the victims was responding to
treatment. The other did not survive. According to Offor, the
corporal was driving with his friend identified as Taiwo
Balogun before they were shot by unknown assailants.


“One Raheem Sulaiman of 18, Adeyinka Road, Orile Agege
sustained gunshot wound on the neck. Corpses of the dead
have been deposited at the Mainland General Hospital for
autopsy. The injured is receiving treatment at the Ikeja General
Hospital.
“Investigation is ongoing and the matter will be transferred to
the State Criminal Investigations Department (SCID), Panti,”

he
said.

Meanwhile, one person was reportedly killed following a fatal
accident involving two trailers at tollgate Ota along Abeokuta-
Lagos expressway.
