EFCC Has A Lot To Learn From Hushpuppy Arrest










Hushpuppi: A Lesson for the EFCC


Over a year ago, one of my cousins, who lives and works legitimately in London, had some of these lazy internet fraudsters move money through his licensed money transfer business, unknown to him. 

He had sent the equivalent to them in their chosen currency and was at the point of retrieving the money sent to him, when the bank said the transfer had been flagged and queried, and as such, could not touch the money until certain investigations were concluded. 

That's a leg to the matter. The other leg was that the development had also put him too on a curious list. But my cousin had nothing to fret about. He remained calm and was going about his businesses, waiting for when the flag would be yanked off and access granted to his money.

Again, unknown to him, for about a month, an investigator had been assigned to him, who had been sleeping, working and waking up with him everyday for that long. The investigator, for the period, knew his routine.

From the everyday school runs to his shops and other engagements, he was on his trail. Incidentally, I was also around during the period, so, he marked me too and took details of everything my cousin did and that we did together before moving in. 

At that point, they were satisfied he was legit and then moved on to solve the other riddle, a phase they also closed successfully. My cousin was petrified when the investigator told him all he'd been doing for about a month and unknown to him, after he finally showed up. That's working good. 

News flying around just stated that the agent assigned to handle the Hushpuppi investigation was on him for 34 months, putting together every information available for his prosecution before his eventual arrest. That's typical of decent climes and a manifestation of people on top their calling.

I won't say much but the EFCC has a lot to learn here. The idea of media trial; shaming and naming or picking people up before investigation is not only primitive and cheap, it is also bad protocol, which does not show its leadership is enlightened about the work assigned them. Little wonder their efforts always come to naught. 

EFCC, please, improve your skills and stop being your own problem. This doesn't require too much but diligence and the knack to be thorough, such that leaves even the accused almost helpless, when the facts are put to them.
Good morning, folks. It's beeen a while.

      Better there than a Nigerian prison. He would have lived like a king. Find out what goes on in our various prisons. Only the poor and unconnected suffer. From Nigerian cells, you can still commit fraud (Ade Bendel vs Bamaiyi), win elections, even impregnate your wife, etc.

    1. EFCC is just wasting our funds for nothing. They are jokers and can't do a proper work.

  4. EFCC worked at its inception when OBJ put Nuhu Ribadu in charge. Ribadu was persecuted and exiled by the same forces that run the toy-fcc today.
    Now it is simply a poli-trick-al winch-hunting arm of the establishment. If you want to test my theory, go to the papers and criticize the gwavanament in fower and see 😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏

  5. God bless this writer.

    The fear of false accusations and imprisonment is one of those facts of living in Nigeria.
    Before they will now investigate and determine your innocence, they would have almost killed you with beating and many years of remanded in custody without trial.

    What will it cost our law enforcement agencies to do their due diligence?

    I know it happens in even advance counties, but it's rare and the confidence of being acquitted is high.

    May God help us and also grant our leaders more wisdom, amen

  9. Nothing more to add because he said nothing but the TRUTH!

    EFCC & OTHER CRIME FIGHTING ORGANISATION SHOULD TAKE NOTE.

  10. Absolutely, this is why they don’t close/win cases- they don’t don’t do due diligence before arrests. A case goes to court, and there’s no evidence a crime was committed. The judge has nothing to work with. Judges rely on facts. Not comments, wrist watches, number of cars, houses or hair styles.

  12. EFCC is not a serious agency, the do more of media trial than the actual investigation, they'd rather do the trial before investigation and then start feeling like they have worked.
    In other climes,they do thorough investigations which can take up to months and then get enough evidence that even the accused won't be able to say he/she isn't guilty.
    We're a joke in this country,its either the country separates pr the call for something to be done, if not,a hundred years from now, we will still be the way we are as a country.

  14. exactly what was done in Dubai...sadly we dont have the structure or resources that could be assigned to do same in naija. even if the resources are there nko, they would rather use the money to settle cronies and party faithfuls. Trust me most of these government agencies are aware of global best practices but political interferances dont allow them operate well.

  19. Self-serving corruption, lack of resources and proper structure mars the EFCC.

  20. Nigerians only go to school to acquire degrees as titles. Check the profiles of the staff of EFCC, they will all look good on paper but when it comes down to it, they are as useless as the paper they are printed on. Keyamo used to be the lawyer to EFCC. Does he look like someone who can handle legal briefings? When you listen to his submissions, one can only shake head at the low level Nigeria has sunk to.
