Why EFCC Invited Eight Of Buhari’s Ministers

 

The nation’s number anti-corruption agency, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), has reportedly invited eight former ministers, who served under former President Muhammadu Buhari.

 

 

 

 

Sources disclosed that the eight former ministers were all invited for questioning over allegations bordering on corruption.

The invitation letters, according to sources, requested the former top government officials to come and explain how they spent funds allocated to their ministries on some designated projects when they held sway at their respective positions.

 

Daily Trust reports that the letter was extended to the former ministers before the suspension of Abdulrasheed Bawa as chairman of the commission. The anti-graft agency had commenced investigations.

 

The source said apart from the former minister of Women’s Affairs, Pauline Tallen, who was invited last week over alleged N2bn fraud and “part of the money allegedly diverted from the African First Lady Peace Mission Project,” about seven others have also been invited.

 

It would be recalled that Sale Mamman, also a former minister of power under former President Buhari, was last month arrested and detained by the commission in connection with an alleged N22 billion fraud related to power projects.

 

Also, it was learned that the immediate past minister of police affairs, Muhammad Maigari Dingyadi, has also been summoned over how the Police Trust Fund was handled.

 

Speaking further on condition of anonymity, the source said Dingyadi would provide answers to allegations of purchasing refurbished vehicles for the Nigeria Police as new.

 

“Well, I’m not aware of the letter, I’ve not seen it. Maybe they sent it to the office, I will inquire from the office”, the minister of police affairs, Dingyadi, said in a phone conversation with the aforementioned platform.

 

The former Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika, and the immediate past Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, were also invited by the anti-graft agency.

Today, as Abdulkabir Aliu, the visionary founder and CEO of Matrix Energy Group, marks his 50th birthday, a wave of celebration sweeps across Nigeria and beyond. From the corridors of power to the hearts of communities he has touched, Aliu’s journey is hailed as a testament to brilliance, resilience, and boundless generosity. It is a moment not just to honor a man but to reflect on a legacy of transformation that has shaped industries and uplifted lives.

Born into a Nigeria striving for greatness, Aliu has become one of its brightest beacons. At 50, he embodies the golden age—a point where wisdom meets vigor, where achievements inspire and the horizon stretches toward even greater heights. Under his leadership, Matrix Energy Group has emerged as a colossus in Nigeria’s energy landscape. From oil and gas logistics to LPG distribution, shipping, and fertilizer blending, the breadth of his enterprise reflects a mind unbound by limits and a heart committed to national growth.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s tribute captures the essence of Aliu’s impact: a transformative force not only in energy but in the social fabric of the nation. “Abdulkabir Aliu exemplifies the spirit of resilience, innovation, and service that elevates communities and strengthens our nation,” the President remarked, lauding his extraordinary contributions to Nigeria’s economic and social progress.

But Abdulkabir Aliu’s achievements go beyond boardrooms and balance sheets. His philanthropic endeavors speak of a man who understands the deeper purpose of success. In Maiduguri, his vision gave rise to a state-of-the-art Kidney Complex, a beacon of hope in a region often in need. At the Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospitals Complex, his generosity has restored dignity and life through the renovation of healthcare facilities. Over 4,000 scholarships bear his name, a lifeline to students whose dreams might otherwise have withered. Women empowered through his skills training and financial support carry forward his legacy of compassion and opportunity.

In a nation too often plagued by fleeting promises, Aliu stands as a pillar of integrity and vision. At 50, he is not merely celebrating years but the culmination of dreams fulfilled and the promise of dreams yet to come. Abdulkabir Aliu is a living testament to what it means to be a leader, a benefactor, and above all, a patriot. As Nigeria raises its glass to toast his golden jubilee, one thing is clear: his legacy is only just beginning.

UK-Based Nigerian Pastor Not Facing Deportation Over Alleged £1.87m Mismanagement – Lawyer

UK-Based Nigerian Pastor Not Facing Deportation Over Alleged £1.87m Mismanagement – Lawyer

 

Dele Olawanle, the lawyer for UK-based Nigerian pastor Tobi Adegboyega, has refuted claims that the British government plans to deport the cleric over allegations of mismanaging £1.87 million in church funds.

Recent reports alleged that SPAC Nation, a church founded by Adegboyega, was shut down by UK authorities following accusations of financial mismanagement and lack of transparency. Reports also claimed that a British immigration tribunal had ruled for Adegboyega’s deportation after concluding investigations.

A report by The Telegraph stated that “various manifestations of [Adegboyega’s] church have been closed down by either the Charity Commission or the High Court due to financial concerns and lack of transparency.” The report also included allegations of unethical fundraising practices, including encouraging impoverished young members to take out loans, commit benefit fraud, and even sell blood to make donations.

Despite these allegations, Olawanle, in a statement shared on his social media account on Wednesday, strongly denied the claims of deportation.

“People have inundated me with calls and messages since last night. I couldn’t stop laughing when I read that Tobi Adegboyega faces deportation from the United Kingdom,” Olawanle said. “The newspaper that carried this news was ignorant of basic immigration law. Deportation is for criminals, and Pastor Tobi is not one. He has lived in the UK for over 20 years without any criminal conviction and has contributed significantly to the British community.”

Olawanle clarified that although SPAC Nation faced scrutiny from the courts and the Charity Commission, Adegboyega himself was not found guilty of any personal wrongdoing.

He further criticised the spread of sensationalism and misinformation, particularly from members of the African community and other clerics, saying, “Many adversaries, including so-called pastors, are quick to make ignorant comments without facts. It’s disheartening to see people take joy in others’ struggles.”

Olawanle concluded by emphasizing Adegboyega’s resilience and contributions, stating, “He has faced many challenges but remains a winner. The joy some derive in seeing others go down reflects a societal problem.”

Despite the controversy, the pastor has reportedly been lauded for his work by notable figures, including former Prime Minister Boris Johnson and senior officials within the Metropolitan Police.

The statement underscores Adegboyega’s continued commitment to his community and dismisses ongoing reports as baseless.
