EFCC arrests Dangote - Slams 121-count charge on NERC boss, others

THE Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday arrested billionaire-businessman, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, over his alleged involvement in the African Petroleum (AP) shares trading scandal. A source in the commission confirmed that he was quizzed in Abuja by the operatives of the anti-graft agency.

AP Chairman, Femi Otedola, and the company’s shareholders had reportedly petitioned the commission over the alleged indictment of Dangote over the shares scandal, which had seen the Securities and Exchange Commission sanctioning Nova Securities, owned by a son of Chief Tony Anenih, former chairman of the Board of Trustees (BOT) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Nova Securities and Dangote’s company had been reportedly involved in the alleged illegal sale of AP shares causing a free fall in the stock’s value. Otedola who is ranked behind Dangote as the second richest in Nigeria had accused his erstwhile friend of plots to ruin his business empire, an allegation which had been denied by Dangote’s camp.

Dangote is the vice-chairman of the Nigerian Stock Exchange and had been reportedly planning to succeed the incumbent chairman, Mr. Obadele Otudeko.

Another source, however, said that Dangote surrendered himself to the commission in Abuja, following a summons sent to him by the commission over the alleged scam.

As of press time, he was said to still be undergoing interrogation. However, there were indications that he was released on administrative bail last night.

Deep in a noisy, snory sleep,

A loud fart exited Auspicious' posterior -

Loud enough to cause him to stir a little.

And quit snoring for just another minute..

He ground his teeth and scratches his massive, hairy gut.

And the pneumatic-drill-sounding snores continue.

no! F9!. If Ribadu was the best, lets say this one is a tragi-comedy then.

Thats at the expense of turning this all into another Ribadu kalakuta show.
