<span style="font-size: x-small;"><strong>Channels Island’s biggest region, The State of Jersey is
 going to return £315 million loot by former Nigerian presdent,  Sani 
Abacha to Nigeria.</strong></span><br />
<br />

The Ballif of Jersey, Mr Micheal Birt made this known at a dinner to 
honour Dr Dalhatu Tafida, Nigerian High Commissioner to the UK during a 
state visit to the Island.<br />

The Ballif who also is the Island’s Civic Head of State and 
ceremonial head, is the highest ranking official in the Jersey order of 
precedence.<br />

The Island is famous for its fraud free banking system and has in the past returned two tranches £140 million of the loot.<br />
<br />
The funds is said to have been laundered on behalf of Abacha by Mr 
Raj Bhojwani, an Indian businessman who is currently on jail in UK 
serving an eight year sentence.<br />
Birt said that the Island is embarking on an ongoing campaign against money laundering.<br />

He said: <em>“We have done a lot to clean up the image of the Island 
as a safe haven for stolen wealth. What we have in place is a 
transparent and legal finance heaven where only legal funds can be 
deposited and accessed by investors.”</em><br />

Responding to the quotes, Tafilda praised the Island’s transparent 
banking sector and said that the Nigerian government is also 
committed to fighting corruption and strengthening its anti-graft 
agencies.<br />

General Sani Abacha served in the Nigerian Army and was the President
 of the nation after the 1993 coup and served till his death in 1998.</div>

There were reports earlier yesterday that inmates of Kirikiri Medium Prisons
 attempted a jail break leading to the death & injury of many. But 
according to new reports, it may not have been a jail break<br />
<br />
Now this is not confirmed but according to someone who is involved in 
Prison Outreach and was supposed to be at prison today, he got a mail
 from the co-ordinator of the outreach informing them that their visit 
has been cancelled due to an incident at the prison yesterday afternoon<span class="aBn" data-term="goog_195758792" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ"></span></span>. In the email that was sent out, what happened at the prison was explained. See it after the cut...<br />

Please be advised that the Prison Outreach for <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_195758790" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ">tomorrow</span></span> at Kirikiri Prisons has been cancelled.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Apparently, at the Kirikiri Medium Prison , the inmate GO bought 
himself a microphone and a fan with his own money today and the Deputy 
Controller of the prison did not approve of it. The DCP ordered the GO 
to be locked up in isolation. This infuriated the inmates and demanded 
the release of the GO. <br />
<br />
A mob of inmates started 
throwing stones at the authorities. Hence, DCP ordered the Prison Mobile
 Unit to shoot on sight. Shots were fired sporadically into the inmates 
and scores are dead. I was informed that the K-9 Unit was also 
dispatched into the inmate population. The GO has been bitten several 
times and in critical condition.<br />
<br />
 Please be praying for 
him and the entire inmate population. Some of the ones who died might 
not have had any contact with family members since their incarceration.<br />
<br />
I will keep you all posted on developments.<br />

the control of President Goodluck Jonathan alone has over 10 aircraft. 
The Nigerian military has many jets. So, how come Nigerian civilians,

suspicious deal? How long have these arms deals been going on? How is 
Boko Haram getting arms?</span></div>

President Goodluck Jonathan on Tuesday held a closed-door meeting with 
some security chiefs over the $9.3m arms deal that was busted in South 
Africa. According to Presidency a source, Jonathan demanded “full 
briefing” on how South African security impounded the cash in the 
private jet.<br />
<br />
South African police said yesterday that it investigating the cash haul –
 because the money was more than the amount travellers can bring into 
the country. The cash was found stashed in the luggage of the two 
Nigerians and the Israeli, Eyal Mesika.<br />
<br />
The bags were searched “after customs detected irregularities in the luggage,” and they found money.<br />
<div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“<span style="color: black;">Although various explanations about the money were given...these explanations were flawed and riddled with discrepancies,” said South Africa’s prosecution authority spokesman Nathi Mncube.</span></blockquote>
But in their meeting with Jonathan, security chiefs claimed that the arms deal is “legitimate”.<br />
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6589160015449763735" name="more"></a><br />
A highly-placed Presidency source told The Nation: “For more than five 
hours, the President met with some intelligence and security chiefs on 
the arms deal. The security chiefs took time to explain that urgent 
security issues warranted the direct purchase of the arms.<br />
<br />
“The President opted for full briefing to avoid any backlash on his 
administration. It will also assist the government to come up with a 
clear position to the public. Now that the Presidency has the details, 
it is left to the government to clarify things. When the government 
speaks, you will get the details of what transpired on the $9.3million 
arms deal.”<br />
<br />
Based on diplomatic understanding, the aircraft, a Challenger, and the crew have been released.<br />
<br />
It would be recalled that the cash, packed in 90 blocks of $100,000 
each, was discovered on September 5 in two black plastic suitcases, 
prosecutors said.<br />
<br />
“The money was detained as it was undisclosed, undeclared and above the 
prescribed legal limit for bringing cash into the country,” said South 
African authorities.</div>

 Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared a 
governorship aspirant in Bauchi State, Abdulahi Usman Adamu (alias Dan 
China) and a banker, Godswill Oyegwa Oyoyou, wanted for alleged N6.113 
billion fraud.<br /><br />Adamu is wanted for “obtaining” $500,000 USD (N85 
million) from a Chinese Company, Shengjia International (HK) Limited 
“under false pretence”.<br /><br />Oyoyou was allegedly involved in a N6.28 billion fraud.<br /><br />In
 a statement yesterday, EFCC’s Head of Media and Publicity, Mr. Wilson 
Uwujaren, said: “The politician cum miner is wanted by the anti-graft 
agency for allegedly obtaining $500,000 USD from a Chinese company, 
Shengjia International (HK) Limited, under false pretence. He allegedly 
obtained the sum from the firm as part payment for the supply of 3000MT 
of lead ore, a contract he failed to execute.<br /><br />“Following a 
petition by the Economic and Commercial Counsellor’s Office of the 
Embassy of the People’s Republic of China, the EFCC invited the suspect 
for questioning, but he failed to honour the invitation. The suspect is 
currently on the run, as efforts to track him, including several visits 
to his home in Narabi, Bauchi, proved futile.<br /><br />“Consequently, the 
commission enjoins any one with useful information on his whereabouts to
 contact its head office in Wuse 2, Abuja, or zonal offices in Gombe, 
Kano, Enugu, Port Harcourt and Lagos, or the nearest police station. His
 last known address is No. 1, Sabon Gari, Narabi, in Toro Local 
Government Area of Bauchi State.”<br /><br />EFCC said Oyoyou allegedly hacked into the database of his bank and stole N6.28 billion.<br /><br />It
 said: “In the same vein, a banker, Godswill Oyegwa Oyoyou, an 
Information Technology staff of a new generation bank, is wanted by the 
EFCC in a case of fraud involving N6.28 billion.<br /><br />“Oyoyou 
allegedly conspired with some scammers and obtained N6.28 billion from 
his bank after hacking into the bank’s database. The 38-year-old is from
 Isoko South Local Government Area of Delta State.”</span></span><br />
