Nairaland GeneralN423bn Theft: Kaduna Protesters Ask ICPC To Arrest El-rufai by frog12(op): 11:56am On Jul 08, 2024
N423bn theft: Kaduna protesters ask ICPC to arrest El-Rufai
4th July 2024

Godwin Isenyo

A group, the Kaduna Citizens Watch for Good Governance, on Wednesday, formally submitted a petition to the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission against ex-governor Nasir El-Rufai.

The group asked the anti-corruption agency to commence an immediate probe of El-Rufai towards his prosecution for alleged N423bn theft.


The petition by the group comes on the back of a report by the Kaduna State House of Assembly indicting El-Rufai and his appointees for alleged misappropriation of loans and theft to the tune of N423bn.

Last week, El-Rufai commenced legal action against the Assembly and the state government, seeking to quash the incriminating report.

He contended that the Assembly violated his rights to a fair hearing by failing to invite him to defend himself in the course of the probe leading to the report.

On Wednesday, members of the Kaduna Citizens Watch for Good Governance marched to the ICPC office on Wurno Road, Kaduna to demand El-Rufai’s immediate arrest and probe.

The PUNCH reports that the same group had on June 20, 2024 led a protest to the Kaduna State Government House asking Governor Uba Sani to invite anti-graft agency to arrest his predecessor.

Addressing newsmen shortly after submitting their petition to the ICPC, the Chairman of the group, Victor Duniya, said they submitted a similar petition to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission in Abuja.
Duniya argued that prosecuting El-Rufai and his cabinet members for alleged fraud would serve as a deterrent for people in public office in the state.

He said, “Yesterday, the 2nd of July 2024, we officially lodged petitions at the headquarters of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and the zonal office of Independent and Corrupt Practices Commission Kaduna against the former governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir Ahmad El-rufai, and many members of his administration that the Kaduna State House of Assembly ad hoc committee report on sourcing and usage of domestic loans from 29th May 2015 to 29th May 2003 indicted.

“Our petitions requested immediate investigations, arrests, and prosecutions of Mallam El-Rufai and his appointees who were involved in the mismanagement, siphoning, and many illegal financial and administrative activities contained in the report.

“Holding the former governor and those that pillaged the treasury and shortchanged people’s interest accountable will deter other elected and appointed public officials from mindless looting of public treasury with impunity.

“We have absolute confidence in the capacity and determination of the anti-graft agencies in combating corruption in Nigeria.”

The PUNCH reports that ad hoc committee set up by the Kaduna State House of Assembly to investigate all finances, loans and contracts awarded under the former governor, Nasir El-Rufai, on June 5, submitted its report to the House.


The committee indicted the former governor, saying most of the loans obtained under the El-Rufai’s administration between 2015 and 2023, were not used for the purpose for which they were obtained.

ABIODUN SANUSI and IMOLEAYO OYEDEYI

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission have revealed that the Kaduna State House of Assembly was yet to report the alleged N423billion money laundering allegedly committed during the administration of former Governor of the state, Nasir El-Rufai. Recall that the state Assembly had in April set up a 13-man panel, headed by the Deputy Speaker, Henry Danjuma, to probe El-Rufai’s administration over allegations of wanton misappropriation of the state funds.

The ad-hoc committee was mandated to investigate all finances, loans and contracts awarded under the former governor.
The probe by the assembly came weeks after the incumbent governor of the state, Uba Sani, lamented that El-Rufai left him a huge debt profile.

Sani, who spoke during a town hall meeting in Kaduna, had said, “Despite the huge debt burden of $587m, N85bn, and 115 Contractual Liabilities sadly inherited from the previous administration, we remain resolute in steering Kaduna State towards progress and sustainable development.”

But while presenting the report during Wednesday’s plenary, Danjuma said most of the loans obtained under the El-Rufai’s administration were not used for the purpose for which they were obtained, while in some cases, due process was not followed in securing the loans.

Receiving the report, the Speaker of the Kaduna House of Assembly, Yusuf Liman, said that a total N423bn was siphoned by the El-Rufai’s administration while leaving the state with huge liabilities.

A copy of the report sighted by Sunday PUNCH read in part, “The Governor of Kaduna State between 29th May, 2015 to 29th May, 2023 as the Chief Executive Officer of the state breached his Oath of Office contained in the 7th Schedule to the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended and failed to exercise due discretion in the administration of the state, thereby indulged in: 1. Plunging the state into unwanted, unjustified and fraudulent domestic and foreign debts over and above the total Loans obtained by Kaduna State from 1965 to 1999 and the majority of which were obtained without due process.”

blame MK and zuma for dividing ANC's votes. it's a betrayal.


WannaHowzit:
SA founding fathers and mothers taught us the value of negotiation and power-sharing, and not winner takes all. Radical black groups like MK and EFF were also invited, they declined (their problem, the rest of us move in).

The Africa you're wailing for could learn a thing or too about working with the opponent, then they wouldn't be where they are today, engaged in unending civil wars.

look like lamola accomplished some stuff at his age and was justice minister for 5 years. but nothing is better than someone with experience. Dr. Pandor is very good and could have been retained by ramaphosa. why drop what is good? we need good people. i suspect the influence of misfits.


WannaHowzit:
Yeah, she was great but had been a cabinet member for too long. It's time for young blood and Lamola has been applauded all round for professionalism and efficiency in the justice ministry. He'll grow into the job - they all did, included Pandor who started off as basic education minister or something.

Foreign AffairsRe: Ronald Lamola: Meet SA's New Minister Of Foreign Affairs - Aged 40 (PICS) by frog12: 3:40pm On Jul 06, 2024
that's why this is shameful. allowing the racist DA party in power is a bad idea. i think na DA party that want Dr Pandor removed because he was going against europe plan with gaza. this is just like putting bawa in charge of EFCC when you have other qualified candidates there that can do the job better. na disaster this people dey bring. and you know wetin happen after bawa was in charge of EFCC. SA is the worst country.

Dr Pandor was doing an excellent job. I wish she was retained. She is not afraid to tell the truth to the western world the way it is.
I also love her command of the English language.

2. The court didn't rule that the delegates who FINALLY Participated in the Primaries were FALSE DELEGATES.
Thus,, this means that the Status-Quo still remains. The delegates who participated in the primaries were still regarded as VALID.
They are still regarded as TRUE DELEGATES in that particular primaries, since the court didn't declare them otherwise:


Mr lawyer. no be the court say the process was fraudulent? wetin that mean?


BluntCrazeMan:
FROM MY OWN ANALYSIS..
THESE ARE THE THINGS I NOTICED FROM THE JUDGEMENT..

1. The Court accepted that the 378 delegates were THE TRUE DELEGATES, but were illegally excluded from the Primaries.. But nothing was said about the authenticity of those delegates who finally participated in the primaries (who were not elected at the various wards).

2. The court didn't rule that the delegates who FINALLY Participated in the Primaries were FALSE DELEGATES.
Thus,, this means that the Status-Quo still remains. The delegates who participated in the primaries were still regarded as VALID.
They are still regarded as TRUE DELEGATES in that particular primaries, since the court didn't declare them otherwise.


3. The Court went ahead and ORDERED PDP to INCLUDE the Excluded DELEGATES in the PRIMARIES which was held in FAR-BACK FEBRUARY-2024.

HOW COULD THAT BE POSSIBLE.??
WHAT EXACTLY DID THE COURT MEAN BY THAT.?
IS IT FOR THE PDP TO CONDUCT A FRESH PRIMARIES.??
OR FOR PDP TO APPROPRIATE VOTE-COUNTS TO THOSE EXCLUDED DELEGATES
(I really don't understand that part of the rulings -- thus, the plaintiffs might have to seek for further interpretations of that part of the ruling)

If the Court wanted to render the Primaries NULL-AND-VOID, The Judges would have mentioned it inside the Judgement.!!

4. Thus, if PDP “INCLUDES” the excluded delegates without removing those delegates who were Not elected at the wards, then it means that the delegates who were elected at the wards are lesser in number to those who finally participated in the primaries..

IN ALL SINCERITY,, THIS JUDGEMENT IS SUBJECT TO FURTHER INTERPRETATIONS.
