One of Nigerian Army’s finest, Brigadier General Charles Nengite, has been arrested by security personnel. Presently, he is allegedly in detention
His arrest is connected with the ongoing financial probe at the NDDC
President Muhammadu Buhari had approved the setting up of an Interim Management Committee at the NDDC, and ordered a forensic probe into the affairs of the Commission
The NDDC was set up to massively develop the poverty-stricken, infrastructure - starved oil rich Niger Delta
Sadly, the Commission turned into a cash cow for politicians and their cronies, and made billionaires out of thousands of them while the region suffered criminal neglect.
General Nengite’s arrest was triggered by the United States which, allegedly, discovered $16M in his wife’s bank account.
Asked to explain how she accumulated so much, she was unable to do so, the report stated
Based on that, it is reported, US anti-graft agencies tipped off its Nigerian counterpart
Her husband, Brig. Nengite, was, therefore, invited for questioning. He was subsequently, allegedly, arrested and detained
Nengite’s troubles is suspected to have started when he was seconded to the NDDC between 2016 and the outgoing 2019. He was there under the administration of Nsima Ekere and Nelson Brambaifa. Nsima, a former Akwa Ibom Deputy Governor held sway at the Commission until he quit to fly APC’s governorship flag during the 2019 General election
If Nengite is indicted, it will be a huge loss to the Nigerian Army and an end to a brilliant career
Nengite was the best overall graduating officer at the Nigerian War College in his set at the elite College.

Best graduating criminal one might say. The way money and sex influence decisions at Nigeria's High Levels makes it difficult to separate the good from the bad.

What a shame, Nigeria being ruled by con men at different levels! The "If Nengite is indicted, it will be a huge loss to the Nigerian Army and an end to a brilliant career" is all bullshit! So, he should be free with the nation's loot because NIgerian Army don't want to suffer a huge loss? Who ever wrote this must be very sick......Buhari, pls clean them out. Nigeria needs to move forward.

What a shame. No top men in Nigeria is free. There are many like Nengite as we speak who have stolen funds in their various bank account across the world who are just watching and waiting when security agencies will bounce on them. Presently, they are helpless. They can't return it for fear and they can't keep it hidden forever.
