Just because of tribal and party affiliations, so many idiots that don't know where their next meal will come from are shouting Victory for Democracy over a person operating 16 different accounts, and who is not a renowned businesswoman. Her only source of fame is being wife of a former President.
Am not trying to plead her case, but there is not wrong in owing 16 accounts and it is very easy to owe such number of accounts. I will dare to advise many entrepreneurs or people with enough money not to cluster all of them in one account.

NDIC insured each depositor up to only N500k, it then means should the back fold up and you have N3b inside, you will only get N500k period! But if you are prudent, spreading that N3b among multiple banks creates a better safety net.

Also different banks have different products, securities and services. I can have a CD account with bank A, and Fixed Deposit account with Bank B and Money Market account with Bank C, If you are a contractor or a consultant, it is possible to start opening account within the same bank as your client for easy and speed of payments, this will remove third-party bank verification and less the delay in your money becoming available to re-use to process materials for the contract, going getting your goods from abroad, if your current bank does not have the right relationships or better foreign correspondence bank, you will be forced to seek another bank and since each bank will place a cap on your transactions, which might delay your projects, you want to have more, so things will be easier for you..etc, etc, etc...All these are legit and before you know it, you have 10s of bank accounts all over the place...Each company that you form, a separate legal entity and will start having their own sets of different accounts, but you control all these accounts....When you do not have even one million to call your own, you will not comprehend the prudence in having multiple accounts, but once the money start coming, it will all make sense.

This is the beauty of democracy involving the rule of law and separation of powers. The EFCC should be carrying out intensive investigative work b4 arraigning a suspect.

one village woman with 16 account Nigeria will Remain under develop
Nigeria is FINISHED!
If EFCC, with all the wherewithal it has to investigate financial crime, with the hind knowledge that we all have that this woman actually stole those money or at best, 'did not legitmately earn' those money, EFCC still cannot close the case, then it is FINISHED.

Looting/Crime pays a lot, in Nigeria

Please, rejoice because she has gotten her money back, This is Nigeria.
"The Choice we make today, will determine our tomorrow"


But please, dont try to justify her owning 16 different bank account because l am sure you are also aware that those accounts cotains millions of Dollars, that she used fictitous names to open others (her Cooks, Cleaners, Servants, e.t.c) and there even many more of such accounts in different banks.
I suspect that this woman will have more bank accounts than even Dangotte group of Industries.

I clearly stated in my opening phrase that, am not pleading her case, aka....not justifying her as you paraphrased it.

I was just responding to someone who thinks owning 16 bank accounts is dubious, which is not.

Contrary, owning multiple bank accounts is a shrewd financial strategy, if you command lots of money.

Thumbs up to the Nigerian justice system, again and again EFCC should learn from their counterparts around the world how to carry out these kind of investigative work. Its not an easy task, even just by watching FBI movies one will appreciate the effort and pains put into investigations boarding on financial fraud.

She still won't be able to touch the money. Unless the government decides to let her.

Bros no vex, but you don't know anything. Sambo Dasuki has been granted bail several times but is still in detention because the government has decided not to let him go. If you still don't get my drift, then your head na coconut.

Have you forgotten about Fayose Zenith Bank account that was frozen? Has he not been making withdrawal since it was unfrozen?
I'm not talking about the legality here. If the government wants to deal with you, court orders can't save you.

EFCC which way to go again?
Re: Court Unfreezes 16 Accounts Belonging To Patience Jonathan by Nobody: 10:56am On Dec 06, 2017
I imagined a case ought to have been built before even freezing the account in the first place.
The fact you see a fat account belonging to any one in Nigeria does not mean it came off government coffers.

What is sad is that people who seek power in Nigeria use their positions to canvass for personal businesses. If only Efcc had focused on breach of civil service ethics, they would have had a case, unfortunately the wife of the President is not constitutionally recognised even if they have offices and stipends but you can’t hold them accountable for anything. Quite sad.
