For the first time after she was
accused of turning to a snake through which she swallowed N36m from the vault
in the account office of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, in
Makurdi, Benue State, 16-year-old Dor, has opened a can of worms.
Philomena Chieshe, a sales clerk
in JAMB office, Makurdi shocked the world penultimate weeks ago after she
claimed that her housemaid connived with another JAMB staff, Joan Asen, to
“spiritually” swallow N36m from the vault in her office.
In her confessional statement
while being interrogated by a team of auditors, she said that Joan Asen and her
accomplices confessed that they have been stealing the money “spiritually”
through a mysterious snake that always sneaked into the office to swallow the
money from the vault.
According to her “It was a
mystery to me too. I have been saving the money in the bank, but I found it
difficult to account for it. So I started saving it in a vault in the office.
But each time I open the vault, I will find nothing. I became worried and
surprised how the millions of Naira could be disappearing from the vault.
“I began to interrogate everybody
in the house and office, and no one could agree on what might have happened to
the money. I continued to press until my housemaid confessed. She said that the
money disappeared “spiritually”. She said that a “mysterious snake” sneaked
into the house and swallowed the money in the vault.”
However, when Dailypost reached
out to the erstwhile housemaid, who was relieved of her job following the
shocking revelation in November 2017, she denied ever confessing to have turned
to a snake or swallowing any money.
Dor, a native of Angantiv in Obi
LGA of Nasarawa State, recalled that her ‘madam’ truly went to Plateau State
for a conference last year but she did not follow her.
According to her, few days after
returning home from the crusade, hosted by a popular man of God in Jos, her
boss (Philomena) asked her to go that she was relocating to Abuja.
“That was towards the end of
2017. I was at home when they went for the crusade. When madam came back from
Jos, she asked me to go that they were relocating to Abuja and she would not go
with me.
“I came to her house in 2015 July
and I did not at any point steal even her one kobo before I left last year.
Maybe she was not referring to me, but I am sure she didn’t have any maid
before and after me,” Dor, who now resides in Karu area of Nasarawa said when
an insider directed us to her new residence.
When this reporter stormed
Philomena’s family house in High Level, Makurdi on Saturday to confirm if it
was Dor, who actually turned to a snake, a man we met there said she had since
relocated.
“Madam Philo no dey live here
again,” he said rudely.
Meanwhile, Fabian O. Okoro,
JAMB’s director of Information and Technology, could not be reached for update
about the situation as this morning.
