Two children of Governor Sule Lamido of Jigawa State have been taken into custody by the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, EFCC.
The siblings are Aminu Lamido, a 2010 graduate of Mass communication of Bayero University, and Mustapha Lamido, an alumni of the University of Abuja.
The brothers were arrested in Kano and have been flown to Abuja at the wee hours of Friday.
It was not immediately clear the reason for their arrest but our source gathered it may not be unconnected with investigations into the account and finances of 27 local council of Jigawa state.
Confirming the arrest, Mr. Idris of EFCC Kano office said, “The suspects and their files have been taken to Abuja”, without giving further details.
Meanwhile, Governor Lamido has abandoned the Governors ‘ forum retreat in Sokoto for Abuja to secure the release of his children.
A competent source in Dutse revealed that ” Lamido is shattered by the development and has abandoned everything to attend to the emerging situation ” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

ReplyDeleteNE will never cease to be funny! Pls, these are men not "children." Anytime people steal Nigerian money, their kindreds will start to play the tribal card. Shame to all supporters of corruption!
ReplyDeleteThese are the so called democrats, calling for one MUMU "BOKO" M. Buhari to be their(village) president in 2015. Idiots from the North that are pulling this country backward, yet they have the guts to call my able President GEJ all sort of names.
ReplyDeleteMake DEVIL PUNISH all the stupid Malo wey dey insult and accuse GEJ of CORRUPTION when they are the HEAD of CORRUPTION in NIGERIA.
Banana republic indeed. But the children of other thieves who are loyal PDP members and FL families can be walking about freely. so this is what political and comatoose EFCC that cant prosecute Oduah can do better in GEJ era. It is a pity
ReplyDeleteThe same yard stick should be used for every one,not only perceived enemies of the government.Where is the credibility of not investigating corrupt ministers and then flexing your muscles on others.EFCC has deviated from its main function as an anti corruption agency and is now a tool to fight perceived opposition.come to think of it, the agency has always been used to fight government opposition and never truly been independent in the discharge of its duties.
ReplyDeleteare these the children of someone who want the succeed the president?. this has cast a dent on the reputation of the G-7 group. they are accusing GEJ yet they are worst. a kettle calling a pot black. shame on you.
