Patience Jonathan Tenders Video Evidence To Explain How She Got $8.4m And N7.4bn



BY SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORKJAN 16, 2019

Patience Jonathan, a former First Lady of Nigeria, has presented to the court some video clips as evidence that the $8.4 million and N7.4 billion claimed to be proceeds of unlawful activities, were generated through legal means.

The video clips were presented to Justice Mojisola Olatoregun of the Federal High Court in Ikoyi, Lagos, on Tuesday during the forfeiture hearing of the sums filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

On April 20 last year, Justice Olatoregun had given an order for interim forfeiture of the funds.

Mrs Jonathan, alongside Globus Integrated Services Ltd, Finchley Top Homes Ltd., Am-Pm Global Network Ltd, Pagmat Oil and Gas Ltd and Magel Resort Ltd and Esther Oba, were accused of unlawful activities and conspiracy.

N1.085billion and N226.3million discovered in Finchley’s Ecobank account, N39.4million also in Finchley’s Diamond Bank account, N55.9million discovered in Pagmat Oil and Gas Diamond Bank account are part of the funds handed over in the interim to EFCC.

Rotimi Oyedepo, counsel to EFCC called on the court to grant final handover of the funds to the Federal Government.

However, Chief Ifedayo Adedipe (SAN) countered the EFCC’s request saying hard evidence were not given by the anti-graft agency to convince the court that its application be granted.

Adedipe said the claims by EFCC that the funds are illegal proceeds does not hold water, noting that the agency failed in calling Patience to its office to reveal the source of the funds and the agency did not charge her for any offence.

Joining the defendant, Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN), counsel to the companies involved in the case told the court that according to the provisions of the Advanced Fee Fraud Act, EFCC’s submission for the final handover of the funds was too early.

Ozekhome said that if the companies’ affidavits to show cause are deliberated upon and the court finds no merit in them, then the EFCC’s request could prove to be reasonable.

Ozekhome said an affidavit to show cause was filed by his clients, one of the companies displayed its certificate of incorporation, its board agreement that Patience Jonathan be made co-signer, and bank documents to show that accounts were signed by other individuals who are co-signers.

According to him, one of the companies implicated in the case rolled in income from the sale of groceries, drinks, lighting, among others, and that there was video evidence to back this claim up.

Hearing on the matter will continue on Wednesday.

Wow...

This is audaciously audacious I must concede but certainly not surprising.

Video evidence to prove a lack of guilt, while Gandollar's was the direct opposite. But we are all witnesses to the effectiveness or lack thereof.

Reading how the monies traced to those slush accounts were made is the definition of an oscar worthy movie script.

You can imagine making billions of Dollars from selling a poor yellow garri as a staple and grocery or even selling thunder a.k.a (lighting~lightning) pun intended.

Mrs. Jonathan claimed that the funds, domiciled in Skye bank plc, were hers, being the only signatory to the accounts. However, she disowned the convicted companies, blaming Dudafa for opening the accounts in the companies’ name instead of hers.

$5,842,316.66 suspected to be proceeds of theft 

While the former first lady was still battling to have the $15 million unfrozen, the commission obtained an order for interim forfeiture of $5.9 million in the name of Mrs. Jonathan and another N2.4bn opened in Ecobank in the name of one La Wari Furniture and Bath Limited, a company suspected to be linked to the former first lady.

Rather than come forward to show the Federal High court why said sum should not be permanently forfeited, Mrs. Jonathan headed to the court of appeal.

In January, the appeal court dismissed her suit for lacking in merit. The court held that EFCC is empowered by Section 17 of the Advance Fee fraud Act to apply for the forfeiture of property reasonably suspected to be proceeds of unlawful activity.

$8.4m, N9.2bn linked to Mrs. Jonathan “temporarily” forfeited

On Tuesday, May 8, Justice Olatoregun ordered the interim forfeiture of $8.4 million and N9.2 billion linked to Mrs. Jonathan following an ex-parte application of EFCC alleging that the funds came from the coffers of Bayelsa state government.

An investigator of the EFCC, Huleji Tukura, who deposed to the affidavit filed along with the ex-parte application, claimed that Mrs. Jonathan allegedly stole the money when she served as permanent secretary in the state.



“The total sum of $4,036,750.00 (Four million, thirty-six thousand, seven hundred and fifty United States’ dollar)
On the 5th day of October, 2016, the 1st respondent withdrew the sum of $1,000,000.00 (ONE MILLION DOLLARS) cash from the said account leaving the balance of the sum of $3,645,013.73 which sum we are urging this honourable court to forfeit in the interim to the Federal Government of Nigeria

NIGERIA is ruined TOTALLY by these THIEVES and these are the thieves sime dead brain individual are clamoring again for, to continue where they stopped.

PDP IN NIGERIA AGAIN?
