EFCC arraigns fishermen for fishing in unauthorized waters

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) yesterday September 24th arraigned six fishermen Adekunle Oshingbosi; Momodu Ibrahim; Idowu Tuesday; Togbosi Christian; Benjamin Eyinle; Anthony Medoho,  and their company, Oshine Resources Ventures Limited before a Federal High Court sitting in Lagos for allegedly fishing in unauthorized waters.
According to the EFCC, the men were arrested on March 27th by officers of the Nigerian Navy for fishing in Nigerian territorial waters without getting authorized approval thereby violating Sections 1(1)(2) of the Seas Fishery Act Cap S4, 2004. 
When the 2 count charge of conspiracy and stealing was read to the men, they pleaded not guilty and applied for bail through their counsel.
The presiding Judge, Justice Ibrahim Buba granted them bail in the sum of N10 million each with one surety in like sum each, who is to produce two recent passport photographs. They were remanded at the Ikoyi prisons pending when they meet their bail conditions.

  132. Can you just imagine the kind of things that happen in Nigeria some times. Imagine EFCC to arrest fishermen claiming they were not fishing in unauthorized zone. Can this commission called EFCC do their appropriate work? It is only in this country that Political Armed robbers will do their dirty business but this useless commission will not question them. Just where the poor masses are is where they exhibit their their senseless authority rather than looking into $9.3 million dollar deal with a CAN private jet. In fact, where did this man get money for his private jet? What about the 7 billion in the CBN's president account, what have they done about other unbelievable issues? Look at the fools arresting fishermen, LOL, Nigeria

  138. One can now conclude that the EFCC have gone nut. Have the law establishing the EFCC been amended to d extent that it now covers the arraignment of persons violating or tresspassing in Nigeria's territorial waters? For God's sake, where are the Nigerian Navy? Does it mean that all the embezzlements and syphoning of public funds going are no longer within the powers of EFCC to prosecute persons as we saw in d days of Uncle Nuhu Rhibadu? I weep for this country. Look at the treatment that awaits a poor man who has choosen to work hard legally to sustain life. Hmmm I think this is the height of the ongoing madness under the rulership of Ebele.

  184. lol, don't remember the last time i laughed this hard, so fishermen that are trying to make honest hardworking living are the ones remanded for 10 mil, while the bigger thieves are being praised. this is a very useless country indeed. they might as well shoot them for trying to make a honest living. God help Nigeria
