Copied from www.saharareporters.com Yar'adua Set to Announce the Appointment of Ibori's Money Laundering Accomplice, David Edevbie as Chief of Staff. [size=8pt][/size] Last View on Fri 8th August, 2008 Last Modified on Fri 01st August, 2008 11:11:35 am Author: Posted by Admin Sahara Saharareporters, New York[b] Update: [/b] Saharareporters has confirmed that David Edevbie, the former Delta State commissioner of finance named in several money laundering investigations pertaining to his governor, James Ibori, has been appointed as Yar'adua's "Chief of Staff", though the name of the office will be changed, Mr. Edevbie would be performing the role of the "Chief of Staff" to the president. The new position, "Principal Secretary to the President" is unavoidably the most powerful in the presidency. The announcement is set for Monday. Saharareporters has learnt that Ibori has ironically become one of the most powerful politicians in Yar'Adua's government, which has pledged to combat corruption. As has been extensively reported by Saharareporters, the former Delta governor bankrolled the flawed election that brought Yar'Adua to power in May 2007, and that investment seems to be yielding handsome rewards. For instance, Yar’Adua is expected to appoint David Edevbie into the Federal cabinet any moment from now. Edevbie was Ibori’s former commissioner of finance. It will be recalled that four years ago, the then Federal Minister of State for Finance, Mrs Nenadi Usman, alerted Nigeria to how state commissioners for finance were aiding governors in looting the treasury. Last year, Yar'adua rejected David Edevbie on account of security reports from the EFCC that the Metropolitan Police in London had named him as an accomplice in the money laundering charges against Ibori. That was when the Metropolitan Police froze Ibori’s worldwide assets worth $40 million, including a Challenger 604 private jet he had ordered from Canada. Mr. Edevbie was subsequently dropped from being appointed as the Director-General of the Bureau of Public Enterprises (BPE). Saharareporters cannot confirm the government agency to which Edevbie is now being appointed, but our source in the presidency said it was unlikely it would still be the BPE. Meanwhile, Saharareporters can confirm that Ibori will be traveling out of Nigeria any moment from now. |
