@SamuelOmogor Who actually saw this when Buhari was in power? We just see the good things about a government when it’s out of power. We will definitely point out a few things to compare Tinubu with the next government in power.

@officialEFCC I am sure you also released press statement after this incident.
Keep deceiving the gullible.

EFCC PRESS STATEMENT
EFCC Condemns False Narratives on Loss of Officer
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, expresses grief on the loss of one of its officers, Assistant Superintendent of the EFCC, ASE II Aminu Sahabi Salisu who was killed in cold blood while on a legitimate duty on January 17, 2025 by a suspected internet fraudster, Joshua Chukwubueze Ikechukwu.
Additionally, the Commission views with great concern the irresponsible, callous, inhuman and outrageous narratives being circulated on social media on the whys and wherefores of the fatal accident. It is heinous to reduce the death of a gallant officer who was carrying out patriotic and official duties to social media razzmatazz.
More worrisome is the fact that some faceless commentators are pitching their tents with an alleged criminal who unleashed terror on officers of the EFCC in their line of duty. There is no justification whatsoever to rationalise a murderous act. The milk of human kindness demands that a grieving family, Commission and nation should be spared the shenanigans of false narratives and conjectures on the death of the slain officer.
Salisu, alongside other investigators of the EFCC, were at Dr. J.O. Ukwutinife Close, Ifite, Awka, Anambra State, to arrest some suspected internet fraudsters in the early hours of January 17. The operation was duly documented at the Anambra State Command Headquarters and Area Command of the Nigeria Police in line with operational protocols.
The operation was initially smooth sailing with 37 suspected internet fraudsters already arrested at a two-storey building housing Ikechukwu and other occupants of the house.
However, Ikechukwu, who sighted the investigators through a CCTV Camera mounted at his doorpost and who also confessed sighting them, declined to open his door for the investigators who politely demanded entrance to his apartment. Defying all the introduction and physical sighting of the investigators, he resorted to firing shots at them and killed Salisu in the process and wounded another officer detailed to conduct a search in his apartment.
Preliminary investigations showed that Ikechukwu was involved in coding and online medical supplies of doubtful legitimacy. Two laptops, ipads, several recording devices were recovered from his apartment and his involvement in internet fraud is already established. Though currently in police custody owing to the murderous dimension of his case, the Commission will surely bring him to trial.
The EFCC also wishes to alert the public that the activities of internet fraudsters are becoming patently hazardous to public safety and security. Intelligence has shown that these criminals are carrying arms, involved in kidnapping, banditry, ritual killings and other deadly acts. The public should not fold its arms or allow itself to be deceived that they are mere “Yahoo boys and girls”.
As for the EFCC, every subsequent attack on any of its officers will be met with the force of the law. The Commission will not fold its arms and allow any of its officers to be killed again in cold blood. As a law enforcement agency of repute, the EFCC is unrelenting in riding the nation of internet fraud and other acts of corruption.
While mourning the loss of its officer who paid the supreme price in the service of the nation, the Commission appreciates the invaluable support, condolences and prompt response of sister agencies and well-meaning individuals standing shoulder to shoulder with it at this trying time.

@officialEFCC I would like to extend my condolences to the EFCC and the nation as a whole. This situation serves as an important lesson for the commission to re-evaluate their operational strategies and implement more protective measures in carrying out their duties.

@officialEFCC Please, you may want to check the amount in figures and words if they agree. Its from here that i could know if you are fraudulent with money figures or words.

Lagos Court Jails Businesswoman 17 Years for N57.6m Fraud
Justice I.O. Ijelu of the Lagos State High Court sitting in Ikeja, on Thursday, December 12, 2024, convicted and sentenced a businesswoman, Oluremi Phillips to 17 years imprisonment for N57,690,000 (Fifty Seven Thousand, Six Hundred and Ninety Naira) fraud.
Philips was previously standing trial before Justice S.O. Solebo of the Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja, Lagos, following her arraignment on January 27, 2022.
However, the trial could not be concluded before the retirement of Justice Solebo in November 2022, a development that resulted in the re-assigning of the case file to Justice Ijelu.
She was on May 22, 2023 re-arraigned before Justice Ijelu alongside her company, Omritas Energy Limited, on a five-count charge bordering on stealing and issuance of dud cheques to the tune of N57,690,000.
Count one reads: "Oluremi Ebun Philips and Omritas Energy Limited, sometime in 2016, at Lagos, within the jurisdiction of this Honourable Court, fraudulently converted and stole the sum of N57, 690,000.00, property of AYM Shafa Limited meant for the supply of Automotive Gas Oil (AGO) which you failed to supply."
Count two reads: "Oluremi Ebun Philips and Omritas Energy Limited, on or about the 10th of April 2017 at Lagos, within the jurisdiction of this Honourable Court, knowingly issued a Diamond Bank cheque of Nigeria Plc for the sum of N14,298,075.00 payable to AYM Shafa Limited, which when presented for payment was dishonoured on the grounds that no sufficient funds were standing to the credit of the account."
The defendant, again, pleaded "not guilty" to all the counts preferred against her.
In the course of the trial, the prosecution counsel, T.J. Banjo called three witnesses through whom several documentary evidence were presented in court to prove the case against them.
The defence also presented three witnesses during the trial.
Delivering judgment , Justice Ijelu held that the prosecution proved the case against the defendants beyond every reasonable doubt and convicted them on counts one to five.
The Judge, thereafter, sentenced the first defendant to nine years imprisonment on count one, with an option of fine of N2million to be paid within 90 days, and two years each on counts two to five.
The sentences are to run concurrently.
The second defendant was fined N250,000 on count one, and N100,000 each on counts two to five.
The court further ordered the restitution of N57,690,000 to be paid to the victim within 90 days.
The company was also ordered to be wound up within 90 days, if it fails to fulfill the restitution.
The convicts bagged their imprisonment when they fraudulently converted and stole the sum of N57, 690,000.00, property of AYM Shafa Limited meant for the supply of Automotive Gas Oil (AGO). They neither supplied the products nor returned the money to the victim.

@NigeriaGov What are the criteria for the selection of the household in Nigeria to receive this transfer? I have a family, my children are in school. I buy petrol to drop them off at school every school day. I believe many have not received this either. Why is it so? Are we not Nigerian?

English

@ASUU_NIG_ I belive ASUU is made up of talented professors who can scheme a plan to stop students victimisation and extortion at Universities and other Higher levels of education in Nigeria.
English

@ASUU_NIG_ This ASUU matter, I actually did not want to make any comment but this caught me.
It's good lecturers can not be without students and students without lecturers.
English

@ASUU_NIG_ Let's not just fight for the money, let's fight to remove and/or stop these bad people who are tarnishing the image of lecturers and ASUU as a body.
English

@ASUU_NIG_ Students' need to have these questions answered before stepping in as u may wish. Again, your statement looks threatening too based on lecturer-student experiences in our higher educational fercilities.
English

@ASUU_NIG_ However, I have had several cases of lecturers victimising students at all levels of higher education in Nigeria with evidences. Practically, was it becos the FGN had not met their demand(s)? Will it stop when their demand(s) are fully met?
