The Independent Corrupt Practices and other offences
Commission (ICPC) has started investigating four former
governors over allegations of financial mismanagement.

(lower right) and, Chime (lower left) are under investigation
The four ex-governors are Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers,
Sullivan Chime of Enugu, Ibrahim Shema of Katsina and
Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano.
Four investigative teams departed from Abuja on Monday to
the states of Rivers, Enugu, Katsina and Kano to check the
accuracy of the financial statements of the former
governors.

“ We will ensure that we thoroughly investigate all allegations
brought before us so that nobody would be left in doubt
about our commitment to fighting corruption, ” told the press
the source inside ICPC who declined to be identified, adding
that “ the [ICPC ] chairman has dispatched a team to the
affected states and they are expected to report back in the
next two weeks. ”
Speaking on conditions of anonymity, the source concluded
that if found guilty nobody would be spared from
punishment.

Despite ICPC didn’t confirm the fact of on-going
investigations against ex-governors officially yet, it is
rumoured that the investigative teams focus on the
allegations of possible corrupt practices concerning the
shady tenders of contracts awarded to relatives and friends
of the then-governors.
Six days ago the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) has begun a probe into the
administration of the former governor of Rivers state, Rotimi
Amaechi.
