Ambode Reacts To EFCC Searching His House, Says No Cause For Alarm by Gemid94(op): 2:57pm On Aug 20, 2019
Former Lagos Governor Akinwunmi Ambode has urged his supporters to remain calm and law-abiding as there was no cause for alarm.

Ambode, in a statement by his media aide, Mr. Habib Aruna, spoke on the backdrop of a search by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on his Epe Country home and Parkview Ikoyi residence where the anti-graft agency conducted the exercise without any incident.

He said the Commission has not opened any direct communication with him on any issue, adding that he was ready and willing to respond if or when they do so.

The statement reads: “This morning, operatives of Economic and Financial Crimes Commission visited the Epe Country home and Parkview Ikoyi residence of Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode, former Governor of Lagos State, with warrants to conduct a search. These searches were carried out extensively and at the end of the exercise the operatives left without any incident.

“The former Governor reiterates that the EFCC has till date not had any direct communication with him on any subject matter whatsoever and if or when it occurs he is ready and willing to respond.

“The former governor wishes to assure his supporters and the generality of Lagosians to continue to remain calm and law-abiding as there is no cause for alarm.”

The former governor reiterated his belief in the rule of law and due process and remains grateful for the opportunity to have served Lagos State diligently and conscientiously.

It would be recalled that Ambode, in an earlier response to allegations by the EFCC that it had frozen certain accounts linked to him, insisted that no account of his contained N9.9bn let alone being frozen by the Commission as those accounts were opened and operated by the Lagos State Government.

Leaders are those Nigerians are after these days. Government or some cabal can be after whom they are after and use their EFCC to do that. That's their business.

But by the time we Ekweremadu the leader abroad they will start fixing home and by the time we Ekweremadu their children studying abroad they will start fixing the universities. Again by the time we Ekweremadu them when abroad on medical checks they will fix the hospitals. If we Ekweremadu them when holidaying in Dubai they will know we also deserve some comfort at home here.

Numberge is the new awakening and a case study is ongoing. Ekweremaduing is a such a great formulae

Ambode should be tried in accordance with Nigerian law and Lagos law.

Well, I think they have so many dirts on him and will be having his feathers ruffled more in the coming days. But, here is the twist; remember that last dying kick of Samson that eventually destroyed all his enemies in the bible, that will yet again be relive in our time and the actor will be Mr Ambode. He won't go down alone. I guess Jagaban will regret this battle. His Political dynasty might crumble. I hope 'Mr world class project' won't chicken out yet again.

He should face the wrath of the law if he is guilty,no one is above the law
I don’t know why politicians are always scared of law enforcement if there is no skeleton in their closet

We do appreciate your time as our Governor.
We are giving you a pass mark to some extent.

As long as you are not guilty and you have no skeletons in your cupboard, this too shall pass.

But it is good to know we have a President who does not intervene in the rule of law.

God bless Nigeria.

Word right out of my mouth. That Tinubu man is evil and Nigeria, as a country, is a joke!

Why hasn't the EFCC gone to search Tinubu's house to find where and how he got his bullion vans and what he did with them.
