EFCC Nabs Imo State Commissioner of Finance, Accountant General
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) today arrested two Imo government officials for fraud related charges. The agency interrogators are currently quizzing the Imo state commissioner of finance, Deacon, Okafor Chike John and the accountant general of the state, Eche Ezenna George.
The two officials are currently in the Abuja office of the EFCC. It is unclear how the agency effected the arrest of the two officials however, a source at the EFCC office in Abuja involved in the investigations said their arrest is linked to a loan transaction from Zenith bank involving N47 billion.
UPDATE: The officials are being interrogated regarding their activities with the current regime of Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo state. The governor enjoys constitutional immunity from arrest and prosecution
Thieves as Governors, in government.
Governance in Nigeria my country has been made a nonsense with more stealing than daylight robbery, which way Nigerians? I love my fatherland!

Idle EFCC dogs waiting for the whistle
I remember, Gov. Okorocha was the only governor to call on the same EFCC clowns to establish a monitoring unit in every State Gov. House to monitor and nip fraud in the bud, not chasing after officials after they leave offices. Why didn't that drooling aboki fool Lamorde take up the charge back then? It's bcos he's a hopeless idiot waiting to be pointed to places he can scavange for crumbs. A man who cannot think independently taking orders from another retard from the creeks. Birds of the same feather indeed. Stupid Lamorde is a "Federal Character" employee who rode on Ribadu's back to attain dubious notoreity. He met with Dumbo, the next day the EFCC seized and publicized ex-Gov. Sylva's 48 Abuja properties. Cheap propaganda con men working for the Clown Prince. Lamorde is a toothless clown without a single success story under his Burukutu belt. The efcc has been reduced to a "witching" tool under the Utuoke monkey with a fedora. Shame, shame on all of them.
Agidi Dumbo Already Panicking
Aboki Lamorde is a Chihuahua dog barking bcos its owner is scared, not bcos it can bite or fend off the oppressor. Dumbo is "opressed" by the success of Imo Governor Okorocha that's why he sent that guava-bellied aboki clown Lamorde to distract Owerri. Iwuanyanwu and co. are at work here with their fake petitions for the evil party PDP, but Never again will they abuse Imo state where they were unceremoniously sacked by Oguta women. Yeye EFCC. Where's Ohakim today? Subsidy thieves? Bankole? Adetola and Farouk? Alams and a million other pdp cabal thieves? Lamorde epitomizes stupidity. Core aboki without common sense. Distracting a "working" governor just bcos Dumbo is a disgraceful act. Rochas is coming in 2015 to offer Free Education to Naijas! The pdp knows their days are limited no matter who they front. Thieves chasing innocents. Dishonest Dumbo has no moral right to go after Okorocha, he lacks the credibility the Governor has. Animals.

Is Only a fool that will tell us that Rochas have performed more than mbakwe.that is to say the person is myopic and he has no political awareness.
For God sake more money have lost in Rochas administration compared to both ohakim and udenwa.
In this present administration there is no law and due process in government spending they even releases billions any how without any due process.give jobs without due process make payment as though the money is their personal cash.
Haba you guys are aware that Rochas will one day put una in trouble.

Why must we always simplify or localize complex issues? Whenever there is a criminal case some selfish and unthinking persons will politicize it and call it PDP affair. When will we stop thinking like fools and think straight? Abdulgafar or what you call yourself, i think you should lean to reason through your head rather than your anus and ask for result of investigations rather than jumping into unhealthy conclusions. Thank you.
Ass-hole EFCC, Now reduced to tribal witch hunt department.
Efcc, on your way to Owerri, did you not see where and how the state governor is massively spending the state's money? When did borrowing money become an offence for any government? Ass-hole Efcc. Go to hell. Efcc has now been reduced to an instrument for tribal vendetta.
IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH US?
The EFCC arrests Imo State Finance Commissioner and Accountant General, and the first twelve comments on SR are that Ndigbo is being victimised, Ohakim looted more, Rochas is working, or Rochas is being persecuted because he is running for Presidnet in 2015. When will we ever grow out of this moronic tantrums? Are we forbidden from thinking? So EFCC must not investigate anyone again because Ohakim stole more? Or because Ndigbo fought the civil war?
Check the latest edition of Tell magazine and watch how the Imo State Government itself had called for the EFCC to set up a unit in its secretariat since it claims it has eliminated fraud. The Governor himself boasts that there is zero corruption in the state, so shouldn't you all be happy that this claim is being put to test?
fee dee fee
what i just notice in the whole matter is that pdp is at work. Is it a crime for Rochas to contest for the presidency? Its high time we stand up with our pen and voice against these nonsense, when those pdp members who ate our money and refuse to digest it are moving about freely. Mark my word Tinubu and Buhari will be next. Gov. Rochas, never be intimidated, ur people are behind U and we in the northern parts are also behind U, continue ur good work.
A lot of people have been
A lot of people have been waiting for the probing of Ohakim and I keep asking why he has not been arrested and from my investigations, the man has no case to answer! Its almost 2 years, and Rochas has not been able to come up with a single petition against Ohakim. he even admitted it in a stakeholders meeting at the Government House. Last 4 weeks, he said consultants are working on it and that it will be published in 14days, yet we hhave seen nothing. ohakim even asked him for an open debate, yet the man refused to show up. He should leave Ohakim alone and do his job. I have been following up the war of words and I can say for sure that OHAKIM IS CLEAN! Take it or leave it. Whoever has any petition against Ohakim should forward it to EFCC. I have a friend in EFCC and he said, the petition they have are politically motivated without facts and even the writer have refused to show up with the documented facts.
Crooks in Imo.
Ice hi Meeks, you need to learn to shout up. Do you mean the efcc should not do their work. The amount is 47billion Naira just in case you forgot. Let them do their investigation. People like you should support them. Because you can see a lot of work does not mean the governor is not a crook. In fact the governors doing the most work are the biggest crooks except for maybe Rauf (Osun) and Adams (Edo).
may God save Nigeria.dey cannot fustrate okoroncha
We are in de dark age in nigeria
Imo, most balkanized & ungovernable state. Petitions since 1999.
We keep our fingers crossed until we know what's happened. But even if an angel is fetched to govern Imo state, petitions from deeply vested interest groups must fly and fly against the Angel. When Ohakim was there, it was petition galore, EFCC visits. Ohakim's predecessor, Udenwa, was harassed by petitions throughout his tenure. They even pursued him to Abuja when he became minister under late Yar'Adua.
But one thing: unlike his other two predecessors, Gov. Okorocha is seen to have been putting Imo state's money into visible development projects. Some in Imo state believe that compared with late sam Mbakwe, first executive governor of Imo state beginning 1979, Okorocha has out-performed Mbakwe in a given short time of less than two years.
Re: Kudos to EFCC!
Good job? What good job? How many times have we been here before?
EFCC itself is a fraud, the sooner we get that the better things will be for us!
Wrong Arrest
It is very sad that the EFCC has consistently turned a blind eye and deaf ears to the massive looting of the former regime but has consistently harassed officials of Rochas regime that has glaringly changed the lot of Imolites. i am very confident that the Imo govt. officials will come out untouched because every one knows that the are looting and stealing in this govt like the past regime. I encourage the EFCC to do their job without being selective and also to avoid doing a hatchet man's job to Imo govt. officials because they don't belong to the PDP.
WHO IS FOOLING WHO?
This is nonsense, Ohakim looted and raped Imo state resources and till today, Efcc did not arrest him.
WHO IS FOOLING WHO?
Kudos?
Well I hope this is not another political move?

Loan Transaction?
Zenith Bank should go for the collateral if it all about loan. May be they gave out the loan by compromising on loan requirement.
EFCC is just an over zealous toothless bingo
This is another witch hunt.
EFCC that could not proscute 1.7 trillion naira oil subsidies fraud have found the power to proscute 47 billion naira. Okorocha decision to vie for President s the reason for this.
Rochas is doing well in Imo State
This is a clear case of political withch-hunt. Go to other states like Cross River mr EFCC, nothing is working there. You are busy pursueing men who work for the masses. Go ahead and invite Rochas, the widows and the masses of imo are praying for him. Fuck you EFCC
Jail them na Ndigbo, them no get mouth for naija...
It is dishearting, absurd and despicable the way we have come as a nation so far. Pot-belly Lamorde must have a hidden agenda of his fore fathers to wipe out or throw Ndigbo behind bars. Over 75% of convicts since he became the Boss of EFCC are my eastern brothers. He has blindly choosed to look the other way when it concerns Yorubas and his Hausa-fulani tribesmen. What has happened to Otedolla and Farouk. They are walking the streets of lagos and abuja spending the resources of SE people. The only person he wants us to believe it's a subsidy criminal is Ifeanyi Uba. The rest are saints and must be adored. Obviously naija is still one because of oil. But for how long can Biafra continue o fold it's arms why naijas squander our Oil revenue. How long!
Kudos to EFCC!
Kudos to EFCC for doing a good job. While it keeps the flag flying, it should not allow itself to be used to settle political scores.
