The spokesperson of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olisa Metuh is said to have used some of the funds he allegedly received from former National Security Adviser (NSA), Sambo Dasuki to purchase a property in the exclusive Banana Island area of Lagos State. The revelation was made today, February 9, 2016, by Junaid Sa’id, a witness in the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) money laundering case against Metuh. The PDP spokesperson is said to have used bout N500m out of funds received from Dasuki, who’s also being tried for corruption, to buy the property. “Investigation revealed that after payment of N400m by ONSA, a total sum of N366m was paid into the same account by one Kabiru Ibrahim, who also paid in N150m; Capital Field Investment Limited paid in N91m, and one Eyitonye, paid in N82m,” Sa’id said “These funds formed the naira equivalent of $2m, which the first defendant [Metuh] gave to one Nneka Ararume in cash. Investigations revealed that all this money was used for PDP campaign activities and for personal use by the first defendant. “The money used for PDP campaign activities were from the sum of N400m. Among the disbursement made, the sum of N77.5m was paid to CMC connect for campaign activities; the sum of N25m was paid to Abba Dabo for campaign activities; and the sum of N21.7m was paid to Chief Tony Anenih. Another sum of N5m was discovered to have been paid to Chief Kema Chikwe, and the sum of N50m was found to have been transferred to a joint account of the first defendant and his wife. “The sum of N500m was also discovered to have been transferred to Daniel Ford International Limited in two tranches of N200m and N300m for the purpose of buying landed property at Banana Island, Lagos, by Metuh,” he added. Metuh was previously imprisoned at the Kuje Prison on the charges but is currently free on bail. Dasuki is at the center of the massive money laundering investigation and is alleged to have supervised the looting of $2.1 billion in funds which were meant for the procurement of arms for Nigeria's military. He was arrested by the Department of State Services (DSS) on December 1, 2015 and handed over to the EFCC the day after. The former NSA is reported to have implicated several prominent persons in the deal including former governors, ex-ministers and members of the PDP. Dasuki was released on bail from Kuje Prison in December 2015 but was soon re-arrested by the DSS.

Malam working under Igbo as errand boy: at the appropriate time, the malam will be singing like canary, the African finch to expose the Igbo. Metuh is really, really in for a long haul trouble.

Hello Naijapals, I got this from an article somewhere in Europe. A Nigerian wrote. Do you agree with him?
“IF BUHARI AND IDIAGBON WERE ALLOWED TO RUN NIGERIA WITHOUT BEEN OVERTHROWN BY BABANGIDA, NIGERIA WOULD HAVE BEEN CORRUPTION FREE AND ONE OF THE VERY BEST PLACES TO LIVE ON EARTH.
THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS, CORRUPTION IS A MORAL ISSUE. NO ONE LIKES CORRUPTION. NO MATTER HOW CORRUPT YOU ARE YOUR CONSCIENCE TELLS YOU THAT CORRUPTION IS EVIL. IT IS LEFT FOR YOU TO ACCEPT THE SIMPLE FACT.
BUHARI IS THE GREATEST ENEMY TO MOST NIGERIAN POLITICIANS BECAUSE HE DOES NOT GIVE THEM THE OPPORTUNITIES TO STEAL GOVERNMENT FUNDS. YOU ARE HATED WHEN YOU STAND FOR UNCOMPROMISING ETHICS.
THE ONLY POSSIBLE WAY TO FIGHT CORRUPTION IS TO IDENTIFY THE SOURCE OF CORRUPTION AND SHUT IT DOWN. YOU DO NOT OFFEND ANYONE BY DOING THE RIGHT THING.
BUHARI MIGHT BE OLD BUT HE IS NOT OUT OF TOUCH. THE MAN IS A FULL PATRIOT AND A TRUE NATIONALIST. I AM POSITIVE THINGS WILL WORK OUT FINE IN NIGERIA SOMEDAY. GOD IS IN CONTROL.
IF NOT FOR THE STUPIDITY, GREED, SELFISHNESS, CORRUPTION, ABSENT MINDEDNESS AND MISMANAGEMENT OF RESOURCES OF NIGERIAN AND AFRICAN LEADERS PUT TOGETHER, NO AFRICAN WILL EVER STEP FOOT TO EUROPE, ASIA OR TO THE UNITED STATES TO TAKE ALL THESE NONSENSE FROM WHITE PEOPLE”

public treasury and public project fund turns to personal moneys of crude kleptomaniac political vultures. to my consternation they also take salaries and fat allowances at the end of each month in addition to this blatant corruption.
