I Was Never Arrested By EFCC - Uche Ogah by MxtaMichealz(m): 5:52pm On Oct 11, 2016 |
The President, Masters Oil and Gas Ltd,
Mr Uche Ogah has denied reports
making the rounds that he has been
arrested and detained by the Economic
and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC
over an oil deal with one Bridget
Adeosun that went awry.
Addressing journalists, yesterday, Ogah
described the report as “false, wicked
and fabricated”.
He said, “ I was neither arrested,
detained, nor under any investigation
for any criminal charge whatsoever.
The EFCC has a process of inviting
anyone under investigation, either in
writing or by inviting you through other
means. That has not been done, as you
can see me physically here”.
Recounting the genesis of the
misunderstanding with Adeosun, Ogah
said the woman met him sometime in
2011 through one member of his Staff
for financial assistance in the
procurement of import license for
Premium Motor Spirit (PMS).
According to him, he insisted on going
through legal and other due processes
in the alliance with her.
“The transaction was properly
executed. I spent N1.8 billion and made
a loss of N10 billion. This transaction
took place in 2011. She never argued or
refuted anything from that day until
when they paid us interest on foreign
exchange differentials. She rushed to
the DMO to claim the N51million
interest. We stopped her at the DMO
with an injunction,” he explained.
Ogah further added that despite the
fact that the woman has dragged him to
five police stations and the EFCC since
then, he had always floored her; a
situation he believes is responsible for
her frustration.
He revealed that the former Inspector
General of Police, IGP Solomon Arase
hurriedly took the case to court on the
eve of his retirement, adding that he
wrote to the new IGP Ibrahim Idris, two
weeks ago demanding that the case be
re-investigated, vowing that he will
never succumb to the Adeosun’s
blackmail.
He also said that he was aware that his
political detractors were using Mrs.
Adeosun.
Ogah said his efforts so far, even
through Adeosun’s church to make her
see reasons has not yielded fruits,
vowing that he will continue to play
along with his good conscience on the
matter. |
