EFCC Boss Magu accuses banks of aiding looters

The acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Mr. Ibrahim Magu, has accused banks of creating a friendly atmosphere for looters to operate.

He added that some banks were currently behind the moves to separate the Nigeria Financial Intelligence Unit and the EFCC.

Magu further alleged that when the NFIU is established as a separate agency, a former bank managing director would be named as the head of the agency.

In a Facebook post on Friday, the EFCC quoted Magu as saying this while receiving a delegation of the International Monetary Fund, which visited the commission’s head office, Abuja on Thursday.

The Senate had on Thursday passed a bill seeking to establish the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Agency barely a week after it was sponsored in the chamber.

The powers and funding of the EFCC will be greatly reduced should the NFIU be separated from the commission.

Magu said, “I don’t trust the financial institutions. They create an enabling environment for thieves to loot our money. That is why they are fighting to remove the NFIU from us. They want to use a former managing director of a bank to head the NFIU.”

Jealous man gives girlfriend 'rulebook' then cheats with 4 other women

A jealous man gave the girl he'd been seeing for six months a 'rule book' before a Magaluf girls' holiday - but ended up having sex with four women while she was away.

Josh Utting, 20, told 18-year-old Lucy that she wasn't allowed to talk to, look at or take photographs with other boys, take drugs or be a wing-man to her pals.


Exposing the bullet point list on Twitter, Ashleigh Greenway wrote: "Josh Utting is an absolute PSYCHO, imagine writing a list of rules for Lucy and he's not even with her. 'No eye contact'. IMAO.

Josh - who has been branded a "weirdo" and "abusive" - claims the demands were a joke and wasn't meant to be taken seriously.

He told UNILAD: "It wasn't fully sent as a joke - obviously I didn't want her to get with other lads on holiday. I just made the rules sound extreme for a laugh."

Josh claims that when he sent it to her, Lucy agreed to the rules and said they seemed fair enough as long as he stuck to the same things when he was on holiday.

Lucy said: “We were seeing each other for about 5/6 months then stopped due to him sleeping with others girls while seeing me.
“Then we were going to try again because he told me he was in love with me – he made the rules for us to both stick to while on holiday."..She went on to say that she stuck to the rules and he slept with four girls in a week.

Revealed: How Kidnapped Lagos school boys were freed – Presidency

According to reports on vanguard, the Presidency Friday night gave a rare insight into how the six Lagos school boys were finally freed by their captors and the roles played by three states-Lagos, Ondo and Delta in freeing the students.

A top official of the administration confirmed to Vanguard that the efforts of the Presidency, top security agencies working in concert with the three state governors, provided a leeway for the eventual rescue of the embattled children. 

The official said, “It took the hard work of the Lagos State governor and the significant collaboration of the governors of Ondo and Delta State to secure the release of the kidnap six Lagos school boys.

 The source said that while the Lagos State Governor had worked so hard on breaking the case, it was discovered that the boys were held around the coastal waterways of Ondo State. “This was where the coordination of the Federal Government became even much more compelling pulling in both civil and military security agencies like the Police, SSS and the Nigerian Navy to work with the Lagos State Governor and also the Ondo State Government whose Deputy Governor played a crucial role in ensuring the eventual release of the boys.

“Both the Delta State Governor and his deputy also supplied “important support” to the process that facilitated the release while the Nigerian Navy was responsible for providing the required military logistics that eased the release yesterday afternoon. “The other security agencies like the SSS and Police also played active roles, and with the Navy, joined the Lagos, Ondo and Delta state governments in the final talks that produced freedom for the boys about two months ago.

The source however insisted that no ransom was paid to secure freedom for the school children.
