I dont trust this Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Chief Mike Aondoaka. The guy wanted to interfere in the cases the EFCC brought before the court. And there was the infamous unsavory exchanges between him and Ribadu. Now, he is asking the President, Yar’Adua to stop the trial of the former Delta State governor, James Ibori.

He is claiming that the trial was meant to tarnish Nigeria’s image and its justice system. What B.S? I would have expected that he would support such trials. If he wants the case to be stopped, does he plan to try Ibori in Nigeria? If not, the guy should shut up!

There has been this back and forth accusations and counter-accusations between the EFCC and the Attorney General for a while now.

EFCC were set to charge former Abia State Governor, Kalu for corruption. The Ministry of Justice (MOJ) tried to takeover the case from the EFCC and the EFCC pointedly refused to hand over the case to the MOJ. The Minister of Justice then demanded an apology from EFCC Chairman, Mr Ribadu, who refused to tender any apology for embarassing the Attorney Genera.

Earlier this week, Gani Fawenhimi demanded that the AG resign. Very few people have come out to back the Attorney General. To make matters worse, The Senate has stated that they fully back the EFCC in this matter.

So the story continues…
