ABUJA, Oct 29 (AGCNewsNet) – Nigeria’s investigation into an alleged coup plot against President Bola Tinubu has intensified, with security operatives reportedly interrogating the managing director of a federal agency in the South-South region over a suspicious transfer of funds to former Petroleum Minister Timipre Sylva. According to sources, the agency head was picked up by military investigators who suspect that a large payment made to Sylva could be tied to an alleged plan to finance a coup. “The MD transferred a huge sum to Sylva. Investigators are working on the theory that the funds were connected to the alleged coup,” one intelligence officer was quoted as saying. Over the weekend, operatives reportedly raided Sylva’s Abuja residence, arresting his younger brother, Paga Sylva — who also serves as his Special Assistant on Domestic Affairs — along with his driver. The former Bayelsa governor, said to be outside Nigeria at the time, has since delayed his return after learning of multiple arrests linked to the probe. Efforts to get official comments from the Defence Headquarters were unsuccessful.https://www.agcnewsnet.com/article/6430 Click here to continue reading: https://www.agcnewsnet.com/article/6430

I thought some folk had condemned Sahara reporters for sharing unsubstantiated information. But alas they are the only authentic media outlet in Nigeria today. Someone made a thread about how Wike had no place in the state council meeting only for the same Wike to give an explanation for his absence. Now this new has also gained traction, good job Sowore! |

Obi who always talk before thinking has not opened his mouth on this matter. Perhaps because the Lagos chapter of APC has warned him to always think before he talks. He should not allow his mouth to be faster than his thinking. |

tunjijones:During the military, they only running after Tinubu and other thieves that have run Nigeria aground. No military will come after you, if you don't drag power with them. You ask yourself, is civilian run Nigeria better than military? Boko Haram and other insecurity today, are offshoot of political thugs. Large debt we entered, is all about mismanagement of civilians. The massive amount of money to run civilian govt compare it to military among others. All form of lawlessness that democracy brings. |
