'I Didn't Say Snake Swallowed JAMB's N36 Million' - Clerk Tells CNN by AlexReports(m): 5:09am On Feb 14, 2018
Lagos, Nigeria — Controversy is trailing the disappearance of $100,000 from the coffers of Nigeria's examination board. The exam board alleges that a clerk in Benue State has blamed a snake for swallowing the missing money. The money was supposed to be remitted to the agency.


Fabian Benjamin, spokesman of the Joint Admissions and Matriculations Board, told CNN that a staffer confessed to auditors a snake had "swallowed" the missing money. "She confessed that she had the money, kept it in a vault in the office but a snake came and swallowed the money," Benjamin told CNN.
"The staff and others in her category that are found culpable have been suspended and will be handed over to appropriate authorities," he added.

The clerk, identified as Philomena Chiesche, denied the allegations, saying the exam board invented the story about the snake. She also accused the exam board of turning her in to authorities, who she claims still haven't questioned her about the missing funds.

"I did not say any money was swallowed by a snake. Nobody questioned me about that case. I am just a clerk and I serve under directors who are accounting officers. I wonder why they are personalizing the case?" the clerk told CNN.

Social media erupted at the nature of the allegations. A Twitter account has been made for the snake. Nigeria's Economic and Financial Crimes Commission tweeted that the agency's national symbol, the eagle, shows no mercy for "money-swallowing snakes."

No difference between GEJ's govt and that of BUHARI as far as stealing/corruption is concerned.

The only palpable difference is GEJ has "tushed" thieves and corruption was "international" . Buhari, a local champion with local thieves who aren't "tushed" enough to give better justifications for their stealing. If not grass cutting it'd be snake.

If corruption under the two governments were to be "DESIGNERS"

Didn't allow myself get drawn into the ridiculous wave of actually believing the story in the first place. Reason I never commented on the issue. Haba, we were supposed to use our heads nao. Both CNN and the initial person they interviewed are fake news.

This is the craziest part of the whole thing. I wondered why a clerk would have access to all the funds. Truly not possible without accountants and directors......so why are they focusing on just the messenger when the ogas at the top are the real culprits?

The said theft happened under GEJ, it was discovered as a auditing excercise ordered by the PMB administration. Atleast comprehend and understand the story first before making senseless remarks.

You are a good student of history

Someone might just find the money and silently stow it away for future embezzlement as they did to NIA $44m

She is just a clerk for God sake. you can't accuse or expect her to account for funds when directors and accountants are working with her.
