Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in search of more evidence on the unraveling $2.1 billion arms purchase scandal have raided the Abuja offices of former Vice President Namadi Sambo.

The raid was carried out Saturday night in the central business district in Abuja, according to Daily Trust.

Sambo is an architect.

EFCC sources hinted that the former VP’s office is being investigated over allegations that some of the funds disbursed for political campaigns under the former NSA Sambo Dasuki were routed through the VP’s office.

Wat kind of expensive lie is dis? How can dat fund still be in dat office till now if truly there was money there. Dat money would have been removed and hidden. Beside why go there in d night. See, dis guys shld stop making it look as if they are very busy. We are not fools plssss. Why not do it wit transparency, I mean in d day time. Contact d former VP wit a warrant and do ur search. It u find anything there then good,  if u don't , u keep a beaming light on him till u get evident instead of to disrespect d office of d Vice president of dis country. We shld not forget dat wat goes around will surely come around. Time shall tell. My humble opinion

Reasonable investigations by intelligent people are not made public, you must secretly get your evidence to avoid destruction of facts and evidence. This their useless newspaper evidence and unlawful detention can't stand in the court of law, after detaining someone then you start gathering the evidence for prosecution, doing the right thing with the wrong procedures will jeopardise legal process, that could make a criminal go free without charges.

Do I believe them? YES I do. Nemadi Sambo has since ran to America and you are here defending him. Do you believe that monies budgeted for arms were diverted into private bank accts? As a result, countless lives were lost?  Do you believe there is BH? Do u believe dat over $300m dollars was given Ayo Fayoshe for guber elections in Ekiti State? Do u believe that over 17B Naira was just traced to 3 wives of ex Naval chiefs? Do you believe that CORRUPTION and impunity was at its ebb  during the past administration? Do you believe that this our  Nigeria can be cleansed (or efforts made to cleans it)?
Like OBARO said, if PMB decides not to fight corruption, who will loose? Nigerians  or PMB?
Sis, forget partisanship and mediocrity, and focus on the bigger picture.

Well, I believe they just decided to make the visit a surprise so that they can gather evidence (If you tell a thief you're coming, you won't find anything).. They sure wouldn't have gone there to look for 2.1 billion dollars, these media outlets too just throw stories around anyhow... They probably went there to get incriminating evidence (Documents) to be precise.. However, na their wahala, when they get all these money in the end, how much go reach my pocket??? Omo,it's a survival of the fittest world in AFRICA... Ja fun ori e...#NoTime
