EFCC files corruption charges against AIT founder over N2.1bn he collected from Dasuki

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has filed six
counts charges against media owner Raymond Dokpesi for receiving
N2.1billion from the embattled former National Security Adviser (NSA),
Sambo Dasuki out of the funds meant for the purchase of arms for the
Nigerian military.
Upon his arrest last week, Dokpesi had admitted to collecting the sum
of N2.1billion from the ex-NSA, but claimed the funds were meant for
media campaigns of former President Goodluck Jonathan 's 2015
Presidential election, of which he lost to the incumbent, President
Muhammadu Buhari.

It was gathered that the charge, marked FHC/ABJ/CR/380/2015, was
filed before the Federal high Court, Abuja. He is charged along with his
company – Daar Holding and Investment Limited.
The EFCC's suit, which is yet to be assigned to any judge, accuses
Dokpesi and his company of violating the Money Laundering Act, the
EFCC Act and the Public Procurement Act.
Many of the top officials of the Jonathan administration have also
been fingered in the arms purchase scandal, but the AIT boss is the
second to be charged - Dasuki who is the chief suspect is already
facing trial.
He is being tried before the Federal High Court, Abuja for illegal
possession of firearms and money laundering.

$40b drained from External Reserve in 10 years, says CBN

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has lamented that about $40 billion was depleted from the nation’s external reserves in 10 years due to the taste for imported goods by Nigerians. To stop bleeding the external reserve, the CBN has urged Nigerians to begin to process raw materials so as to get more value and earn more foreign exchange. According to the CBN governor Mr Godwin Emefiele, “exported raw materials such as crude, wood, cocoa amongst others whose end products are later imported, are being sold cheaply and bought back at more expensive rates.” He said the level of the external reserve will be significantly beefed up if fuel which takes up 20 per cent of Nigeria’s import bill is locally produced. Defending the decision of the CBN to support the real sector, Emefiele said the apex bank “is convinced that the sector has sufficient employment capabilities, high growth potentials, contributes significantly in accretion to foreign reserves, expands the industrial base and divers...
