PoliticsUs Faults Ribadu‘s Removal by eleda(op): 5:52am On Mar 02, 2008
US faults Ribadu‘s removal
By Agency Reporter
Published: Sunday, 2 Mar 2008
For the first time since the controversy surrounding the redeployment of Economic and Financial Crimes Commission Chairman, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu to NIPSS, the government of the United States has expressed its concern over the matter publicly, Empowered Newswire reports.

Mallam Nuhu Ribadu

Empowered Newswire, a US-based Nigerian news agency, obtained a copy of a report of the American government on Money Laundering and Financial Crimes across the world released at the weekend.

It stated that Ribadu‘s removal would undermine the perception of Nigeria‘s commitment to fighting corruption and the needed independence of the efforts to quell financial crimes in the country.

The report, which rarely mentioned individuals by name, actually mentioned Ribadu repeatedly specifically connecting his redeployment by the Inspector-General of Police to NIPSS for the rest of the year, to the ongoing trials of seven former governors.

The report praised EFCC and Ribadu but came down heavily on the Nigerian Police which it stated was also empowered to investigate financial crimes but is ”is incapable of handling financial crimes because of alleged corruption and poor institutional capacity.”

According to the report: ”EFCC‘s success in investigating and prosecuting financial crime, especially high-level corruption, has brought it both the support of the international community and the ire of corrupt officials.”

The US government added that in December 2007, ”the Government of Nigeria reassigned the EFCC Chairman, the country‘s highest ranking and most publicly visible anti-corruption official, Nuhu Ribadu, to a year-long training course.

“This reassignment coincides with the high-profile trials of several officials, including seven former governors.”

As far as the US government was concerned, the report made it clear the EFCC Chairman is ”the face” of the anti-corruption efforts in Nigeria.

The US said Ribadu is the one known spearheading Nigerian Anti-Money Laundering and financial crimes efforts and ”his removal could undermine the perception of the GON‘s commitment to fighting corruption.

“The reassignment of Ribadu may also impact the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit‘s autonomy and its ability to act independently.”

Nonetheless, the US government recognised that the EFCC investigations became political last year in the midst of an election year.

Said the report: ”In 2006, the EFCC received a surge of petitions and leads provided by whistleblowers. Reportedly, many of these alleged abuses of office involved politically exposed persons and/or their collaborators.
PoliticsIts The Day For Yar Adua by eleda(op): 3:53am On Feb 26, 2008
Which way will the pendulum of justice swing today?

President Umaru Yar’Adua

This is one question that the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal will provide an answer to as it delivers judgment in the petitions in which two presidential candidates are seeking the nullification of the April 21, 2007 poll.

Incidentally, Presidential Umaru Yar’Adua, whose victory in the election is being contested by Maj.-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari of the All Nigeria Peoples Party, Maj.-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari and Alhaji Atiku Abubakar of Action Congress, leaves Abuja today for a trip to China.

The tribunal had last week sent notices to the lawyers of the petitioners and defendants informing them that judgment would be given on February 26.

It closed hearing in the petitions by Buhari and Abubakar on February 5, 2008 and reserved judgment after all the parties had argued their cases.

Buhari, a former Head of State, is, among others, asking that the election be voided on the grounds that it was marred by widespread irregularities and that Yar’Adua of the Peoples Democratic Party did not score the highest number of votes cast.

Abubakar, an ex-Vice-President, also asked for the nullification of the poll because of malpractices.

Among other resaons he cited for his request is that he was excluded from contesting the election by the Independent National Electoral Commission.

As part of its efforts to lessen anxiety among Nigerians, the tribunal on Monday granted the requests of some broadcasting stations to transmit the judgment live.

The media outfits that got the approval are the Nigerian Television Authority, CHANNELS, Africa Independent Television and the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria.

Also in Abuja, the Police authorities, in their bid to prevent a breakdown of law and order, on Monday positioned battle-ready policemen opposite the headquarters of the ANPP.

They also stationed an Armoured Personnel Carrier and a contingent of combat-ready policemen at the main gate of National Assembly.

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps also moved to compliment the efforts of the Police by deploying over 17,000 officers and men in Abuja, and other parts of the country to ensure peace and order during and after the judgment.

It said that 2,000 out of the 17,000 officers were posted to strategic locations in Abuja for the purpose.

The Public Relations Officer of the NSCDC, Mr. Emmanuel Okeh, who disclosed this in an interview with our correspondents, said the remaining officers were deployed in Kano, Kaduna, Katsina, Adamawa, Bauchi, Delta, Rivers and Bayelsa States.

Okeh said that the NSCDC was prepared to prevent those who might want to take law into their hands “if the verdict of the tribunal did not go the way they want it.”

He said, “We want people to go about their normal business because there is no cause to panic.

“The NSCDC, like other security agencies, will ensure that nothing untoward happens in any part of the country during and after the judgment of the tribunal.

“We have mapped out plan to deploy our men in all the nooks and crannies of Abuja and in other parts of the country to ensure maximum peace and orderliness.

“We are ready at all times to ensure safety of lives and property in the country.”

As at 12 p.m. when our correspondents visited Area 3, where the Court of Appeal whic is sitting as the tribunal is located, only the policemen attached to justices of the court were seen.

The courtroom where the panel sat and took evidence during the hearing of the petitions was under lock and key.

At the AC secretariat in Abuja, a source told our correspondents that Abubakar’s running mate, Senator Ben Obi, would lead other party bigwigs to hear the judgment.

Some of the ANPP chieftains to witness the judgment are the National Chairman, Chief Bisi Akande; Chief Audu Ogbeh; Chief Tom Ikimi; Alhaji Lawal Keita; and a former Senate President, Dr. Iyorchia Ayu.

Meanwhile, the conduct of government business at the Presidential Villa was minimal on Monday.

The only notable public figure that visited was the Governor of Bayelsa State, Chief Temipre Sylva.

Sylva, who fielded questions from State House correspondents, expressed confidence that the PDP would emerge victorious at tribunal

He said, “We are very optimistic in PDP. We have had a good case, and I believe that there is no way we will not get victory tomorrow(today).

“We have just won in Abia. I believe that tomorrow (today), our victory will be crowned.”

I’ll deliver Lagos to PDP – Egwu

A former Governor of Ebonyi State, Dr. Sam Egwu, on Wednesday said that if elected as the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, he would ensure that the party win the 2011 governorship election in Lagos State.

Egwu, who was in Lagos as part of his campaign programme, told party stalwarts at the state secretariat that it had been unfortunate that the party had suffered setback in the state for eight years.

He said, “By the next election, a PDP governor will emerge in Lagos. You have kept the spirit of the party moving in the state, despite all the turbulence that the party had faced, I will fight to ensure that power comes to PDP in the state so that you people will reap the fruit of democracy.”

While soliciting for their support in making his ambition come to reality as the national chairman of the party, Egwu said that he did not just emerge as a candidate from the South-East, but that as one who had fought to entrench the party in his state.

Egwu also promised to ensure that all party officials from ward to national level were empowered if elected.
