EFCC goes after Ibori with 170-count charge

EFCC goes after Ibori with 170-count charge
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission is set to arrest former Delta state governor James Ibori who just returned from serving around six years in a UK jail.
The charges followed allegations that Ibori diverted N40bn Delta state government funds while in power and tried to bribe ex-EFCC chairman Nuhu Ribadu with $15m cash.
Although the an Asaba High Court struck out the 170 charges levelled against Ibori, an appeal by EFCC was granted by a three-man panel of justices at Appeal Court, Benin Division on May 15, 2014, saying that corruption matter against the ex-governor should be reopened when he completes his jail term in the UK.
“As things stand, the EFCC has the right to arrest him at anytime. Ibori, among other allegations, was accused of embezzling N40bn which belonged to the state. Also, a former Chairman of the EFCC, Nuhu Ribadu, alleged that the former governor attempted to bribe him with $15m cash.”
He has since paid a visit to the offices of the Department of State Services (DSS) after he was picked up by operatives of the secret police on his arrival at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja.
Ignoring the level of corruption that landed Ibori in a London jail, an aide to Delta state governor Ifeanyi Okowa,Ovie Success Ossai, has said that the ex-governor did well for the state.
Ossai said though Ibori was made to pass through hard time in the United Kingdom, he is worthy of emulation.
He wondered how many politicians in Nigeria could boast of being welcome and celebrated even from prison as Ibori was given by the people of Delta state.

For more than five decades, the black-and-white image of Irene Garza has haunted the town of McAllen, Tex., her story painfully recounted again and again. She was a 25-year-old dark-haired former beauty queen, her high school's first Latina drum majorette, the first in her family to graduate from college. She was named Miss All South Texas Sweetheart, and worked as a teacher for disadvantaged children.   But at the center of Garza's life was her Catholic faith. In a letter to a friend in April 1960, she wrote about how she was no longer afraid of death. "You see, I've been going to communion and Mass daily and you can't imagine the courage and faith and happiness it has given me," she wrote in the letter, according to Texas Monthly.   And so when Holy Week came, the most sacred time of year for Catholics, Garza decided to go to confession. On the eve of Easter, she drove to the Sacred Heart Catholic Church in McAllen.   She never came h...

THE INVINCIBLE WOUNDS OF SYRIA'S CHILDREN

By
March 14th,2017 The physical devastation left by the Syrian war is tangible. But a less visible, more insidious damage is hurting the country's most vulnerable. Save the Children's 'Invisible Wounds' report found that Syria's children are suffering from a condition called 'toxic stress' , due to living in an almost constant state of fear and terror. In order to visualize the invisible, the NGO commissioned photographer Nick Ballon and conceptual artist Alma Haser to create a series of animated portraits and short videos. Ballon's thoughtful photos combined with Haser's paper manipulation techniques – folding, crumpling, ripping and origami – attempt to show the intense psychological pain these children suffer. Ballon shot the portraits of the refugee children near the Turkish-Syrian border. He got to know them at their orphanage, in a place where they felt comfortable, but shot the portraits on the streets. "The lighting was the key element,...

Prince Harry's Engagement To Meghan Markle Barely breaking the rules: Meghan Markle didn't wear pantyhose to her engagement announcement with Prince Harry on Monday. She hasn't even married her prince yet and Meghan Markle has already committed her first royal fashion faux pas — she went bare-legged in public! The 36-year-old "Suits" star showed up sans pantyhose to her engagement announcement with Prince Harry on Monday, and apparently that's a something of a royal no-no, reports The Cut. While the rule isn't exactly set in stone in some strict royal-family style book, enthusiasts of the monarchy note that Queen Elizabeth herself has worn pantyhose in public for the past, oh, 91 years. Kate Middleton, too, famously wears pantyhose. In fact, many credit the stylish duchess, who usually wears glossy, sheer tights in public, with bringing hose back in vogue for younger Brits. 10 Royal Kisses Caught on Camera Gallery courtesy of T...
