Two Bankers Remanded In Prison For Stealing LG Workers’ Salaries

An Akure Magistrate Court has remanded two bankers, Kasali Fajana and Ajayi Dauda, in prison custody for allegedly stealing the sum of N2.5 million meant for the salaries of workers in Akoko northwest local government area of Ondo State

An Akure Magistrate Court has remanded two bankers, Kasali Fajana and Ajayi Dauda, in prison custody for allegedly stealing the sum of N2.5 million meant for the salaries of workers in Akoko northwest local government area of Ondo State. Fajana and Dauda as well as others still at large are accused of committing the offence. 

A police prosecutor, Pelumi Adejuwon, told the magistrate court that the stolen fund was meant for the payment of local government workers’ salaries. Mr. Adejuwon said the accused persons stole the money after using stones and other tools to break the windscreen of a vehicle where the money was loaded. 

According to him, the alleged crime violated sections 6 (6) and 1 of the Robbery and Firearms (Special Provision Act) Cap R 11 laws of the Federation of Nigeria 2004.

The defense attorney to the accused persons, Oluwarotimi Daramola, urged the court to grant his clients bail on liberal terms, assuring the presiding magistrate that the accused would not jump bail.

The police prosecutor objected to the application for bail, pleading with the court to remand the accused persons in prison custody to enable the prosecution to forward the case file to the Ministry of Justice for further legal advice.

In his ruling, Magistrate Sunday Adeduro ordered that the two accused persons be remanded in prison custody.

Jonathan Cannot Stop Corruption Even When You Give Him 60 Years To Rule - APC. by newbeatThe All Progressives Congress says President Goodluck Jonathan cannot fight corruption even if he is given 60 years to rule Nigeria.

The APC said this in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, while reacting to a promise by Jonathan that he would institute anti-corruption programmes if re-elected next month.

The APC said Jonathan’s inability to tackle corruption was not surprising as “a corrupt government can never fight corruption.”
It said it was surprising that Jonathan was still initiating a plan to tackle corruption despite the presence of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission as well as the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission.
The statement read, “Mr. President said he wants to put in place the institutions to tackle corruption before taking on the cankerworm that has almost destroyed the fabric of our society. Pray, whatever happened to the EFCC and the ICPC? Were they not institutions specifically created for the purpose of tackling corruption, but which the Jonathan administration chose to castrate?
‘’There is no better way to say this: President Jonathan lacks the political will to tackle corruption, and he will not tackle it if he spends 60 years in office.”
The party said it was unfortunate that despite spending about five years in office, the Jonathan administration was just beginning to diagnose the problems of Nigeria.
It said, “A President who has spent the last six years trying to diagnose the main problems facing the country will apparently need another four years to plan how to tackle the challenges. By then, all of us would have been buried under the rubble of corruption and our country would have been decimated by insecurity.
“It is therefore time for Nigerians to vote in a President who will hit the ground running, a President who will tackle the problems of corruption and insecurity headlong, without giving excuses for failure.”
On insecurity, the party said Jonathan should have learnt from the APC presidential candidate, Maj.Gen Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) who was responsible for quelling the Maitatsine insurgency in the early 1980s.

The APC said it was unfortunate that rather than devise means to tackle insecurity, Jonathan blamed everybody but his administration.
