He should simply explain where he got the money from
I know it’s a witch-hunt but that doesn’t mean the lawyer should not explain where he got the money from and it’s purpose

Mallam Ruga and Magu's EFCC are working though the commission has it flaws, their efforts are commendable.


$2m involved? Mallam Ruga don nail these ones.

Our potential yams

Is this how APC intend to win at the tribunal? By intimidating Atiku’s lawyer?

While it is good that they have arraigned the lawyer, he should go and prove his innocence in court. However, EFCC what happened to Danjuma Goje's case? What has happened to Akpabio's case? I think you should stop been an arm of APC! and persecute who ever has been seen to have broken the law irrespective of party lines! SELECTIVE JUSTICE IS INJUSTICE!

Serves him right.


Say no to kwaraption

Hahaha apc want to paint our incoming president red.

Ehn? You have to go through financial institution for large amounts? I didn't know that... I have such a payment pending and I would hate to fall afoul of the law.

So how much will bank charge to do that kind transfer, and what will be VAT? Important questions because I need to transfer early next week

Meanwhile the people who wrote the law are busy moving cash in bullion vans, suitcases, bags, and so on.

EFCC with selective fight na 5 n 6

Atiku is cumming..when Atiku finally cums, he will right all these wrongs

Haaaa this corruption fight is not too democratic in nature, is more or less like fighting your opponent to weakens him down which is noting to Atiku , the real Gamer

Efcc will never see the bullion van master



Buhari is pighting kwarupsion
