Omisore In Hot Mess Over Fresh N60b Discovered and May Expose Others

Detained Senator Iyiola Omisore is under pressure to name the beneficiaries of the N60b “budget padding” in the Sixth Assembly, following documents discovered when EFCC searched his house.


 As usual, he’s sick. Once ‘big men’ are grabbed by the EFCC they fall sick almost immediately. Omisore is on “bed rest” at the EFCC clinic in Abuja where he is said to be in a stable condition.

 How did he get the N60billion that was shared?

 An inside source said: “This, however, does not prevent us from going ahead with the ongoing probe of the padding as seen from the evidence in the document. We will crack this dimension to his case.”

 Omisore was the chairman of the Senate Appropriation Committee between 2007 and 2011. The EFCC found in his Abuja home a document showing a N60 billion “strange” vote in the budget. Also, he was reportedly paid N2.5 billion by the National Assembly’s management for undisclosed reasons.

 Omisore was arrested in Abuja on July 3, for the N4.745 billion allegedly allocated to him and others by the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA).

 Of the slush funds, about N1.310 billion was allegedly traced to Omisore and three companies.

 According to The Nation, detectives will tomorrow question Musiliu Obanikoro’s Aide-de-Camp (ADC) over the N1.299billion flown to the Akure Airport for Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose.

 The EFCC has invited Lt. A.O. Adewale of the Nigerian Navy for interrogation at its headquarters. He reportedly accompanied Obanikoro to deliver the cash, which was meant for the prosecution of the 2014 governorship election.

 The cash is believed to be from the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA), meant for the purchase of arms to fight Boko Haram.

 Fayose’s associate, Abiodun Agbele, who allegedly collected the slush funds from the ex-minister, was said to have “cringed” when presented with some evidence.

 Before the coming of President Buhari, it was all about “share the money”.

  Over N39tn lost in the country’s economy, crude oil theft, official corruption and electoral campaign funding were responsible for a larger percentage of the loss. The exchange rate of N130 to a dollar was used in the conversion of funds under the Obasanjo-led administration while N150 was adopted for those under the Jonathan-led administration, being the average official rates during the tenures.

He recently said the corporation could only account for $29bn of the ‘missing’ fund. He said some oil companies paid taxes and royalties in oil, and the NNPC sold this oil on behalf of FIRS. “No reasonable explanation for $20bn (NNPC);  $6bn
