EFCC & The Invitation Of Rivers LGAs Chairmen
BY  Dr. BRIAN WILFRED | PORTHARCOUT, NIGERIA, |  POSTED 0CT. 10, 2008 |


The Nigerian politics was initially, without doubt, becoming dangerous under Obasanjo-led administration.
The Obasanjo was accused of using the EFCC to witch-hunt political rivals or foes. A lot of people, who
were babes politically, hid their voices and were singing Hossanna in the highest for Obasanjo. But some,
who were adults politically, spoke out and received their own shares of Obasanjo EFCC gifts, extended to
them through the now crying Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, who ones acted as the body’s German shepherd.

EFCC under Mrs. Florida Waziri, though seeking for direction, is without doubt, bent to work. Beside that a
lot of people have brought the EFCC under Waziri to the altar of cruxification, the EFCC is now working
than the formal noise it made under Ribadu. Ribadu was seeking for relevance and derailed or played the
script more than his principal, Obasanjo, wrote it.

The summons by the EFCC of some Local Government Chairmen in Rivers State, as reported in many
dailies, is a welcome development. The opposition party in the state, the Action Congress (AC), had been in
the fore to police and check how the Chairmen spend government allocations to the LGAs. Those who were
reportedly invited by the EFCC were the controversial Prince Precious Oforji – Oyigbo LGA chair, Chief
Azubuike Nmerukini – Port Hacourt LGA Chair, Timothy Nsirim – Obi/Akpo LGA Chair, and Hon. Kerian
Wobodo – Ikwerre LGA Chair.

Much as the Action Congress in the State under the leadership of Prince Tonye TJT Princewill abhors any
form of graft that has become a thorn in the neck of many office holders in Nigeria, the party is in alliance and
wish to encourage the EFCC to continue with the investigations on how our LGAs are run by the various
council bosses. And it is our wish that the body throws its beam on other LGAs part from the
aforementioned, irrespective of the party in the LGA.

AC is in conformity with the assertion credited to the chairman of the EFCC, Mrs. Waziri is stoical to fight
crime to a halt and make sure that files of many lying-low cases before the EFCC looked into by her
predecessor – Mallam Ribadu – are looked into, without minding whose toe is stepped on.

The EFCC while carrying its duty should be sanctum without hoodwinking any person. Witch-hunting people
were replete before Waziri assumed office. AC is desperate to seeing a Rivers State that is free from the
‘winner’ takes it all syndrome. Since the party was not mandated to arrest or invite any person for quiz, it can
only help police various offices in our state saddled with the protection and development of our state.

AC wants to encourage the EFCC to continue with its investigations of official crimes, extended to other
states in the Niger Delta. As so doing, the level of nursing financial crimes perpetrations by some individuals
could be tamed.

Dr. Brian Wilfred is Special Assistant to Prince Tonye TJT Princewill, Leader Rivers AC and member Niger
Delta Caretaker Committee.
