Food for thought.It might be that this move by EFCC is politically motivated. We are all aware of countless of baseless and libelous accusations against GEJ. They accused him of inventing Boko Haram to reduce Northern population, Being the Grand Patron of NDA and so on. But, none of them are tenable.

In order to shun prejudgments, I think we shouldn't conclude yet.
It is food for thought because you guys refuse to use the content of your heads. She is not listed as a director of the company is she? She used proxies and you want EFCC to go after her directly right?

So why hasn't GEJ sued for Libel? Because he is clueless or because he knows the accusations were right and only misguided kids thing other wise?

It is wrong for Efcc to hire mercenaries to tell lies. Let Patience Jonathan tell Nigerians how she got the money. As a former First Lady, she had lot of opportunities to do business and make money. I was thinking that Efcc would have told us the source of the funds. Is it from Nigerian Treasury or stolen? Let Efcc tell us or shut up. Efcc needs to come clean on Patience Jonathan allegations against them.

This Government has made you all dumb and myopic, of course you are not a south southerner to know that that money is not a big deal for business people. Just because she was a first lady doesn't mean she has know source of income. IF EFCC WANTS TO KNOW WHAT HARD EARNED MONEY IS, THEY SHOULD CALL HER FOR QUESTIONING, SHE SAID THE MONEY IS HERS, THEY CALL HER FOR QUESTIONING PERIOD

^ Chief southerner, just read your comment again with open heart . Since you seem to know what business she does may be you are in a better position to tell to us what business she does before her husband came into power as a former president. Built a 5 star Aridolf hotel worth 10 billion naira. How much was her networth before jonathan became a politician? How did she come across $20M Lodged in other people's acct Mr business consultant? Still yet I personally like most Nigerians Dont know What business she's known for. No wonder Sanusi cried hell about the $50B NNPC saga back then. You can reply 1000 times but ain't talking back to you.

Mama Peace says $15m in her account is for medicals, so we can equally replace all her body parts with new ones for $551,973 and return the balance to the coffers of government...

Ndi Ara!

How many body parts does MaguN have for the millions he has spent on renting a house and furnishing it despite our country's minimum wage being N18,000?


anonimi:





Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Mr. Ibrahim Magu, has rented a mansion in the elitist Maitama District of the Federal capital territory (FTC) Abuja, News Express can report this morning.

The storey building located at No. 8B, Rudolf Close, off Katsina Ala Crescent, in the highbrow Maitama District, was the abode of a former federal minister who died some time in May 2014.

An impeccable source said: “The property was rented to the Acting EFCC Chairman for N40,000,000 at N20,000,000 per annum.

“Furthermore, the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) curiously awarded a contract to Africa Energy, a company owned by Rtd Air Comm. Umar Muhammad, to furnish the residence at the cost N43,000,000, in a Government where the President is known to have frowned at and rebuked his ministers for requesting N20,000,000 each to secure accommodation and furnish them.

“It is shocking that the man spearheading the anti-corruption crusade of the government will be involved in such a venture. More surprising is the involvement of FCDA in renting a house for EFCC and under what arrangement.”

News Express made efforts to get the reaction of Magu and EFCC but the commission’s spokesmen Osita Nwajah and Wilson Uwujaren did not respond to text messages sent to them seeking their reaction to the story.

Is this CORRUPTION happening under the nose of our able retired General, only saviour, fighter of corruption, the DullardPoo of Daura?
If the senators confirm him on the job what more will Magu do?

There is something about this that the EFCC are refusing to tell us. She has pointedly told the EFCC to come and get her and they are yet to move a muscle.

She's part of the former first family( I think they still enjoy some form of immunity). Moreover, she's not a party in the case. So they can't invite her, atleast not yet

“It is an irony that it was the former First Lady who went to court for the repatriation of her confiscated
money when she realised that the EFCC and its co-travellers were playing politics with this issue after she
had come out publicly to say that the said money belongs to her and that she has all evidence to prove the
sources of her money. Up till this very moment, the EFCC has refused to interrogate or invite her for
questioning.

Why can't EFCC take up this challenge by her if they are sincere

Before you continue with insults...didn't EFCC confiscate Fayose account even when he never dealt with anybody any of the accused directly? Is Agbele same as Fayose? What happened to arresting accomplice to crime? So Patience Jonathan shouldn't be invited even when she has claimed ownership? And sued them? And if they weren't mercenaries, who accepts charges against him/her hook, line and sinker?

They would only invite people who documents show have the money. Was her name in any document? This is for people who use proxy to open accounts. She is just crying wolf because by law EFCC can only invite those whose names are tied to the money.

She's not a party to the case, why should they invite her? Can we for just an hour brush aside sentiments and get angry we those who have looted our nation dry. I know the next thing u might mention Tinubu or Ameachi (both have stolen, yes). But let us face reality, the probability of this administration prosecuting them is zero. But the good news is, power is transient and as such some other people will take over that will open the books a then probe them no matter the years.
So as Nigerians who all these politicians have stolen from, we should be concerned with the recovery of the loots and judicious use of same.

So why did they freeze Fayose account when Fayose never had any monetary interaction with Dasuki or even direct fund transfer? They only assumed the cash maybe from NSA...or did anybody mark those notes transported via airplane according to them

1st she said it's for medical bills... How sick can a person be to require $15m for medical bills. Even cancer and HIV patients don't require such.

2nd she said it's her hard earned money..... besides doubling as a 1st lady and permanent sec where I'm quite sure they don't pay in $$, which other job on earth would pay $15m in 2years as salary.
We don't need a wizard to conclude that madam P is guilty of theft. And she is stupidly claiming right through the same lawyers that just want to say anything just to get paid.

Shame! Shame!! Shame!!!

What is media trial here? This statement was released by Patience herself and not by EFCC. In the first place, EFCC did it investigation without mentioning her name, not until she came up publicly to report herself by owning up the froze accounts, and even sued EFCC.
Besides, what brought APC into this matter? I asked because least any objective minded one can see is that it's EFCC and not APC that is investigating her. I am however in agreement with that your prayer, Therefore I say big Ameen!

Yes immunity ends immediately one vacates office, but there are feelers that part of the terms of the peace accord was not prosecuting the former first family( I might be wrong about the peace Accord) . However, I see no challenge especially considering the fact she's not a party in d case. Or are u saying you can claim the money in someone else's account?
