Mompha, Lebanese Associate’s Arrests, Landmark Achievement –Magu

Acting EFCC Chairman, Ibrahim Magu

 

Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Ibrahim Magu, has described the recent arrest of an alleged Internet fraudster, Ismaila Mustapha widely known as Mompha, and his Lebanese accomplice, Hamza Koudeih, as a landmark achievement.

Recall that Mompha was arrested last week Tuesday by the anti-graft agency in Abuja for his alleged involvement in Internet-related fraud and money laundering.

Speaking during an interactive session with stakeholders at the Lagos Zonal Office of the commission on Thursday, Magu said actionable intelligence received from local and international law enforcement agencies had revealed that the suspects alongside their collaborators were high-valued targets in organized cyber syndicate network.

Magu said the arrest of Mompha and Hamza by operatives of the EFCC bore testimony to the commitment of the commission to the fight against Internet-related fraud, adding that “it is also a red alert to potential Internet fraudsters”.

As such, Ogwugwu could kill a person despite an excellent relationship with Udo. The Igbo sociopolitical landscape has produced “god-like-figures” like the gods in Igbo cosmology. Examples include Chief Dr. Nnamzi Azikiwe (The Zik of Africa), Mike Okpara, Chukwuemeka Odimegwu Ojukwu (Ikemba Nnewi), Chief Sam Mbakwe, Chinua Achebe, etc. Akin to the Igbo cosmology too, despite the excellent relationship of Igbos with these godlike-figures that we have come to love and admire, Igbos are witnessing our slow annihilation after we embraced the cancerous ideology of the Indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB). To say that Igboland is in grave danger is an understatement. We

In a bid to reclaim what it has described the 'stolen mandate' of its presidential candidate in the 2019 general election, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has accused the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of replacing all the servers at its headquarters in Abuja and all its offices in the 36 states of the federation in a bid to obliterate the authentic result of the elections.  Kola Ologbodiyan, National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, made the revelation in a statement on Monday.  He said: “The PDP has been well briefed on how the INEC leadership and officials of the Buhari Presidency became jittery and resorted to the desperate measures, after they realised that the servers have information of Atiku Abubakar’s victory at the election. “Our party also has details of how the INEC leadership and the Presidency agents procured and detailed computer experts to the commission’s offices to switch the servers, mutilate vital information in the system and
