Cross River Watch confirms that Mr Ntufam John Okon is currently being held at EFCC South South Zonal office in Port Harcourt.
Okon was arrested on Wednesday May 4, by operatives of the anti graft commission who stormed the State PDP secretariat along Murtala Mohammed Highway. The agency also quizzed two of Okon’s co accused, Senator Chris Anyanwu and Buhari’s former counsel and Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Mike Ahamba, on the matter.
"The trio were allegedly paid N1.2billion out of the N23.29billlion bribe allegedly given by former Petroleum Minister, Diezani Alison Maduekwe to compromise INEC officials in the last general election. Anyanwu and Ahamba were allegedly paid N700m while Okon was paid N500million".
CrossRiverWatch learnt that the Commission is preparing charges against the PDP Chair and he may be charged to court soon. Other suspects named in the bribery scandal include some oil industry chiefs who were believed to have been used by the former Minister of Petroleum Resources Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke to raise the bribe.
"The oil barons contributed $88.35million of the $115million (N23.29b) sent to Fidelity Bank by the ex-minister. The money was for some officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to alter the results of last year’s presidential election."

PDP government was too corrupt men! see as them dey talk about money as if say na paper?Check out enzyhub.com for your news,sports and entertainment.
ReplyDeleteInteresting lol
ReplyDeleteFoolish Buhari lapdogs. Continue with the smoke screen. No matter how much they witch-hunt members of PDP in the name of fighting corruption, it doesn't change the fact that Nigerians are fed up with the government. What of all the APC members that are thieves and corrupt?
ReplyDeleteyh yh ... another arrest from efcc again. i think the police even do a better job when it come to arresting sef.
ReplyDeleteatleast, with the police... the alleged would be lock up till thy kingdom comes waiting for trial.
with efcc... we have no idea of wht they are doing with their endless debat in court that finally get swept under the rug wen everbdy gets tired.
in other news, wht the hell are they about the dansugate trial??
Ok. If they're guilty they should return our money and face prosecution, but I still maintain that those who looted our money aren't Only in PDP. Go after all of them irrespective of party divide
ReplyDeleteI hope apc holds the federal level after 2019.because if they don't,the same treatment would be given to them.apc didn't get campaign funds????let them continue witch hunting"
ReplyDeleteSo what about the APC candidate that was caught on camera demanding his 12 million bribe back during the rivers rerun election in ikwerre LGA??? See change na! Buhari and Hypocrisy!
ReplyDeleteGd
ReplyDelete-D great anonymous now as Vivian Reginalds
Okkk
ReplyDeleteGud for him.
ReplyDelete#FINEST
Oya pay
ReplyDeleteWhen I hear stories like dis i wonder if Apc governors are saint and never did any wrongdoing,am a non partisan but hate when we spread hate story to stay at the top,abi na center as we do claim here.he should be punished for wrong doing but am expecting to hear how Apc campaign fund was gotten,or how that huge fund was put together.
ReplyDeleteAny law student can successfully argue this case away.
ReplyDeleteFirst the money disbursed by DIEZANI wasn't government money, it was contributed by individuals, secondly the man received 500million,did he bribe the INEC rec? Did they manipulate results? No!.. which APC state chairman wasn't given funds to deliver for his party? So why are there going after only PDP chairmen? This is a clear case of witch hunting, out democracy is under threat from Buhari and his security dogs.
I do hope EFCC will arrest APC peeps as well when they are done with politicking with PDP.. APC too did pay bribe to INEC officials..it will be justice when both sides are probed and arrested.
ReplyDeleteJohn Achot Okon hahahaha, how far. E remain Liyel Imoke
ReplyDeleteIs it only pdp that gave money to deliver their party, how about apc?
ReplyDeleteHe is innocent of all claims. When d thieves be der chilling the innocent will be suffering
