What a lame defence from the corrupt former Attorney General! He hasn't told the court how he manage to accumulate stupendous wealth to build hotels, University, schools, fuel mega stations, hospitals, mosques and estates with his income as a minister of justice for 8 years. Who were the people giving him gifts and on what occasions? This must be clearly stated. What type of business was he doing that earned him 10b while holding office as AG? This guy is in a hot soup. Too much corruption.
Is this not what every one of them is doing, both present and former? So why are we doing like it's a new thing. The fear now is after forfeiture of the those properties, what would happen to them? won't they be relooted by the so called corrupt Anti crime govt agents and politicians.
So it's purely corruption fighting corruptions for their personal gains. Period

Every news from these politicians is like rage bait. Because mehn... Howwwwww!!!!

The worst part, after a few months, the case will die, nothing will happen to him... And he'll go home to a "hero's welcome" from hungry paid welcome party.

As African China sang, "Poor man wey thief moneyz dem go show e face for crime fighter. But rich man wey thief money, dem no dey see e face for crime fighter"
That guy isn't getting off the noose anytime soon,the forces against him are too huge for him to survive this even from his home state of kebbi......that guy will be jailed.......he should have just retired quietly and enjoy his loot but no he decided to bark off the wrong tree.

Imagine what one government official earns while agbadorians defend them for a meagre 30k monthly income. I hope they have increased it to the minimum wage threshold of 70k monthly though.
Imagine how much obi is collecting for his infantile attempt at the presidency and as toxic leader of opposition,your head go ache.

Is he telling us that he was collecting bribes in the name of gifts, while prosecuting other public officials for the same offense, when he was the attorney general?

He called the bribes “traditional gifts”. The man admitted by his own words that he was a corrupt public officer.

It is so sad that Buhari was seen as the messiah, who would save Nigeria from corruption, and deal with corrupt persons. Unfortunately, right under his watch, corruption took another level. There’s hardly any public officer under Buhari who does not have a corruption issue. It is a very big shame on them all.

How can this country get better with such greedy crooks in the positions of power. Nothing works. Electricity, housing, transportation, security, healthcare, all in shambles because of their wickedness.

While they were busy stealing, blind and bewitched youths were here supporting them and telling us that PDP was the issue. While they were busy leading the nation to a precipice, closing borders, carrying out horrible policies to impoverish citizens, untrained youths were here supporting them. It’s the same presently. Someone made one sentence “subsidy is gone” in 2023 and scattered the country. They met the dollar at 176 in 2015 and took it to 1,600 by 2024 and yet tell their deaf supporters that they are making profit. Who will save us from APC? Even the supporters, seeing that Malami left the party have distanced themselves from him, telling us that it is the fault of ADC. They can never stop pointing fingers at others.
So how much should the dollar be,considering our level of production.

Including Obi Peter, if his Yansh opens, then we will know how much Anambra State money he has embezzled while some of his praise-singers, like you, are singing his praise ... Don't forget, Barrister Adeyanju called him a criminal; he threatened to sue Adeyanju, but till now, we haven't seen his letter. ...perhaps you will like to remind him that he was called a criminal. ...or has he conceded that he is a criminal? . I think so...

Is he not Obis friend in the same party? Are they not the ones now parading themselves now as the saviours of Nigerians? Obi also lodged state funds in his bank. But same Obi will be pretending. What's the difference? Birds of the same feather flock together. Mr. Saint Peter has gone back to structures of criminality.

As funny as this may sound, its so outrageous that most of the MDAs in Nigeria, legalize accepting gifts in their constitution. I think that needs to be stopped.

It's not like I owe you a reply, but I need to make it clear that Peter Obi just needs a robust platform where he can contest and win the presidential election because running under another mushroom party will give Tinubu an automatic victory.

If Obi becomes president, he's not like your regular politicians who don't relate with ordinary people - he's a man that Nigerians can hold accountable. That's one of the reasons he's different.

A public officer receiving gifts that are 3 times his salary.
Is that no an occasion for conflict of interests?
Were the gifts declared?
Who are the benefactors and what was their intent in giving these gifts?
As attorney-general, won't receipt of these gifts make you pervert justice, turn a blind eye to their crimes and provide cover for them?

The OP must be ADC member that deliberately omitted the #10 billion part?
Don't forget, Malami was an accomplished lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria before becoming AGF. He has told you how he earned the 10 billion naira. The onus is on you to disprove it. I thought the EFCC said he stole 250 billion, why are they now sueing him to court for 8 billion. Anyways, we will also interrogate Tinubu's sources of income and how he made his money as soon as he leaves office in 2027.
Re: I Got ₦958 Million As Gifts, ₦374 Million Salary, Allowances, Malami Tells Court by Mathewrichard99: 7:52am On Feb 03
You see there are some money a person would steal that would eventually choke you. It's just like keeping a cow inside a Greenland forest with lots of fresh leaves to eat. The cow will eat and over eat, and get tired. That's the story of Malami, he's a foolish cow that was placed in a Greenland field and of course gluttonously eat and eat and eat without caution. Good investigation ongoing but will it end well as expected or would be truncated as usual calling it political victimization. As an outsider, watching the actions of Malami and others since Buhari era, I know it's going to be a very dirty ending after Buhari. So much illegality from the legal champion of the country. The EFCC chairman of that era should also be investigated. That young man called Abdul Rasheed or so......he was planted as EFCC chairman by Malami and often give returns of illicit sales of seized assets etc.....to Malami. Even collecting bribe to give justice to fraudsters, scammers, corrupt people and oil bunkerers and share the proceeds with Malami. We know all these, it even came as an editorial in Nations newspaper during that era but nothing was done. Nigeria is bleeding terribly, only that we are so lucky to still have a lot of blood inside Nigeria to prevent her from collapsing finally........

That is so true in this Emilokan regime of Oshiomole's Assembly of Past Crooks, APC where sins are forgiven for their redeemed saints who remain loyal to the Ogas at the top.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has withdrawn the alleged money laundering suit it filed at the Federal High Court against Lagos Speaker Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa.

Naija News understands that the anti-graft did not give any particular reason for its application for withdrawal.

Following the application to withdraw, Justice Nicholas Oweibo discharged the ‘lien/Post No Debit’ placed on Obasa’s three accounts in Standard Chartered Bank.

The accounts are (US Dollars) 0001852063; (Current) 0001852056 and (Saving) 5002309624.

The judge also set aside the ex-parte orders he made on September 15, 2020, which led to the freezing of the accounts.

Recall that the court on September 15, 2020, granted an interim order freezing Obasa’s accounts following the EFCC’s application in a suit marked FHC/LCS/1064/2020.

The agency had said it was investigating the Speaker for the alleged offences of conspiracy, diversion of funds, abuse of office and money laundering.

But Justice Oweibo, on August 16, 2023, heard the application to unfreeze the accounts in his chamber.

During the hearing, the EFCC was represented by Mr. Sulaiman I. Sulaiman, while Obasa was represented by Mr. Adeyinka Olumide-Fusika (SAN).

The EFCC lawyer told the court that the application to unfreeze the accounts was pursuant to Section 44(2)(K) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended) and Sections 26, 29 and 34 (1) of the EFCC (Establishment) Act, 2004, and under the court’s inherent jurisdiction.

Section 44 of the Constitution concerns constitutional rights to property.

Justice Oweibo held: “It is hereby ordered that an order is hereby granted to the respondent/applicant setting aside the ex-parte orders of this court made on the 15th day of September 2020 upon the ex-parte motion of the Applicant/ Respondent in relation the funds of the Respondent/Applicant domiciled in the accounts stated in the following schedule:

“ACCOUNT NAME, FINANCIAL ACCOUNT INSTITUTIONS, TYPE OF ACCOUNT, 1. Mudasiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered, (US Dollars) 0001852063 2. Mudasiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered (Current) 0001852056 3. Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered (Saving) 5002309624.

“Issued at Lagos, under the seal of this Honourable Court and by the hands of the Presiding Judge this 16th day of August 2023.”
