$2bn #ArmsGate: Nigerian Govt Slams 6-count Money Laundering Charge Against Dokpesi

$2bn #ArmsGate: Nigerian Govt Slams 6-count Money Laundering Charge Against Dokpesi

December 9, 2015,
Written by News Editor

The Federal Government, Tuesday, slammed six-count money laundering charge against former chairman of DAAR Communications Plc, High Chief Raymond Dokpesi over his alleged complicity in the $2billion arms deal fraud.

Dokpesi who was recently arrested and later granted administrative bail by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, was alleged to have received over N10billion from the office of the erstwhile National Security Adviser, NSA, Col. Sambo Dasuki, retd.

He was charged alongside his company, Daar Holding and Investment Limited, in the suit marked: FHC/ABJ/CR/380/2015.

FG specifically alleged that he acted in breach of extant provisions of the Money Laundering Act, the EFCC Act and the Public Procurement Act, for receiving huge sums of money from the office of the NSA, for unsubstantiated purpose.

Meanwhile, though the charge is yet to be assigned to any Judge for trial, however, Dokpesi had since approached Justice Gabriel Kolawole of the high court, praying for protection of his fundamental rights which he said was being threatened by the anti-graft agency.

In an ex-parte application he filed through his lawyer, Mr. Mike Ozehkome, SAN, Dokpesi, urged the court to grant him bail on liberal terms, pending his formal arraignment before a court of competent jurisdiction.

Instead of granting the motion, Justice Kolawole, in a chamber ruling last week Friday, ordered Dokpesi's lawyer to go and put the federal government on notice, even as he adjourned the matter till December 14.

The court also directed EFCC to produce Dokpesi before it on that day.

However, few hours after the order was made, EFCC granted administrative bail to Dokpesi.

In his application dated December 3, Dokpesi told the court that he was detained for more than 48 hours without the EFCC entering any charge against him.

Ozehkome told the court that his client was on December 1, summoned via the telephone to report to the EFCC headquarters in Abuja.

He said that Dokpesi has since then remained in custody on the anti-graft agency, adding that he was grilled for so many hours despite the fact that he did not have foreknowledge of why he was wanted by the EFCC.

Besides, Ozehkome, SAN, contended that the offences leveled against Dokpesi by the agency were such that can ordinarily attract bail, adding that his client has no reason or any likelihood to jump bail, escape justice or interfere with witnesses.

He told the court that Dokpesi has no criminal antecedent or record, even as he urged the court to consider the status of his client in the society and release him on self recognizance or in the most liberal terms.

It will be recalled that Chief Dokpesi was on December 1, arrested and detained in connection with money disbursed from the office of the former NSA under ex-President Goodluck Jonathan.

The EFCC had maintained that Dokpesi has questions to answer with regards to huge sums of money it said was paid to him while Dasuki held sway as the NSA.

Nevertheless, Dokpesi was reported to have claimed that the payments were for media coverages his media outfits rendered to former President Jonathan prior to the 2015 general elections.

Security committee chair: Hillary, Obama to blame for ISIS

Security committee chair: Hillary, Obama to blame for ISIS

By PAUL BEDARD (@SECRETSBEDARD) • 12/9/15 10:46 AM

The Republican chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, claiming that the U.S. faces its highest security threat since 9/11, on Wednesday put the blame for it and the rise of the Islamic State squarely on President Obama and his former secretary of state, Hillary Clinton.

"I would say that she and the president are responsible for ISIS rearing its ugly head. They have not effectively dealt with it and that's going to be a huge campaign issue," said Rep. Michael McCaul.

The Texas lawmaker said that Clinton failed early in her term as the nation's top diplomat to handle the Iraq war and stem the resulting terrorism. He said that her policies "imploded Iraq and creates ISIS." He spoke to reporters at a breakfast sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor.

"I think Mrs. Clinton has a lot of weaknesses because she was the architect of the Obama administration's foreign policy as the secretary of state," said McCaul.

And he said that the eventual Republican presidential nominee will use that to defeat Clinton.

"I think they are going to have a big advantage when it comes to the question of the American people, 'Do you feel safer today than you did eight years ago,'" added McCaul.

While he hasn't endorsed a GOP candidate, he said that he hopes the party's nominee is strong on foreign policy.

"I'm looking for a commander-in-chief who can fix the problems that this president has created, all across the world. No. 1, ISIS," he said.

Raymond Dokpesi Ordered to Be Remanded.

Raymond Dokpesi Ordered to Be Remanded.

Raymond Dokpesi, a media mogul and founder of DAAR Communications, owners of popular African Independent Television and Raypower radio station was on Wednesday ordered to be remanded in the custody of Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC after he was arraigned by Federal High Court, Abuja.

He was charged with six counts of money laundering and fraudulent dealings by the anti graft agency.

Justice Gabriel Kolawole will however rule on the bail application filed by his counsel, Chief Mike Ozekhome on Thursday.

Dokpesi who was arraigned alongside his company, DAAR Investment Holdings Limited was accused by the Federal government, through Rotimi Jacobs, the prosecution counsel of receiving the sum of N2.1bn from the office of the National Security Adviser between October 2014 and March 19, 2015 for the Peoples Democratic Party's presidential media campaign in breach of provisions of the Public Procurement Act, Money laundering Act and the EFCC Act.

He pleaded not guilty to the charge.

Justice Kolawole has fixed the trial of the media mogul for February 17, 18 and March 2 and 3.

Dokpesi was detained after he was invited last week as part of the investigations of $2.1 billion arms procurement funds by the former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki by the EFCC on 1 December.

The media mogul agreed that he received the sum of N2.1 billion from the office of the NSA for the media services provided by his office to the then ruling PDP in the run up to the 2015 general elections by his media outfit.

The arraignment of Dokpesi may indicate the beginning of trial of those who have been quizzed by the EFCC over their involvement in looting of the $2.1 billion weapon procurement fund.

Those who will be arraigned in court in the next few days include Dasuki himself, former Minister of State for Finance, Bashir Yuguda; former Sokoto State Governor, Attahiru Bafarawa and his son, Sagir, former Finance Director in the office of the NSA, Shuaibu Salisu and Aminu Baba Kusa.
Also to be tried are companies used by the accused to receive huge sums from the office of the National Security Adviser without any clear and specified reasons.

The companies include Acacia Holdings Limited, Reliance Referral Hospital Limited and Dalhatu Investments Limited. Reports indicated that Dasuki, Shauibu Salisu, Aminu Baba Kusa, Acacia Holdings Limited , Reliance Referral Hospital Limited Bashir Yuguda, Dalhatu Investment Ltd, Sagir Attahiru and Attahiru Bafarawa will be arraigned on charges bordering on money laundering, diversion of public funds and breach of public trust among others.
