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

By

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.

ATMFNigeria2016 #IHungerandThirst

By
I believe God wants all of His children to come to a point where we throw up our hands, give up every other pursuit and make Him our primary pursuit. We all need to come to the point where we acknowledge that not only where we saved by grace but we will only run our race successfully by grace....making our dependence on God absolute. There is a 'God-shaped' hole in every human beings heart and no matter how hard we chase after material things and worldly positions or accolades, none of these other things will ever fill up that hole and satisfy us. It's like how we are often thirsty but mistaken that thirst for hunger and instead of drinking water and quenching that thirst, we eat.....and that thirst is still there. Only water will quench it. Likewise, only Jesus satisfies and satisfies completely. No wonder He refers to Himself as Living Water and the Bread of Life. For Him to take over - to fill us up - we must empty ourselves of stuff and especially of 'self...
