For collecting the grand sum of N500 million from Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd), the Ohaneze Youth Council has called on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to arrest Senator Jim Nwobodo, a former governor of Anambra.
President of Ohanaeze Youth Council, Mazi Okechukwu, addressing journalists in Abia said Nwobodo’s recent defection to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) should not be used as a guise to protect him from criminal prosecution.
“We are aware that Nwobodo has decamped to APC, and we agree with Nigerians, even members of the APC, who have viewed his defection as a ploy to evade justice.
“The EFCC should not hesitate to arrest all the people, who had looted our commonwealth. All we ask is that the Commission should be thorough in its arrest and prosecution. No looter should go unpunished.”
“We charge Nwobodo to let Nigerians know how he disbursed the N500 million which he received from Sambo Dasuki. He should take clue from Dasuki as well as Chief Tony Anenih, who have since disclosed how they shared money made available to them. If he fails to disclose the beneficiaries within the next 21 days, appropriate actions should be taken to ensure that he faces the full wrath of the law.
“Since Nwobodo said the money was meant for former President Goodluck Jonathan’s mobilization campaign in the South-East, he should let the world know how he disbursed the money and all the South-East leaders and politicians who received money from him and how much he gave to each of them. If he pocketed the money, he should also let the world know.”
