N-power Fraud: ICPC Breaks Silence Over D'Banj's Arrest

By John Michael Ojo
The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) on Wednesday confirmed the arrest and detention of Mr. Oladipo Daniel Oyebanjo, better known as D’Banj over his link with fraud relating to the N-Power programme.

This was made known in a statement issued by the agency’s spokesperson, Mrs. Azuka Ogugua who stated that D’Banj was being investigated for fraud associated with the N-Power Programme.

“The N-Power is a scheme established by President Muhammadu Buhari on 8th June 2016, to address the issues of youth unemployment and empowerment and help increase social development.

“In line with its mandate, the Commission had received numerous petitions on the diversion of N-Power funds running into billions of naira following the approval and release of such funds to the beneficiaries by the Federal Government. Many N-Power beneficiaries had complained over the non-receipt of the monthly funds in spite of payment by the Government.

“About 10 persons have been invited by the ICPC over the last few months in connection with the N-Power fraud, and have been granted administrative bail after their detention. Several invitations to Mr. Oladipo Daniel Oyebanjo, to appear before a team of investigators were ignored and not honoured.

“Mr. Oyebanjo turned in himself and was taken into custody at the ICPC Headquarters on Tuesday, 6th December 2022, and is currently assisting the investigators to unravel the circumstances of the fraud allegations by the petitioners.

“The investigation will be all-encompassing and also  extended to other collaborators of the fraud and the banks where the beneficiaries’ accounts are domiciled.

“The press release becomes necessary to set the record straight in view of the reports awash in the media. The investigation is ongoing and the Commission prefers not to preempt its outcome and also avoid the frenzy of a media trial”, she added.

Portable

A popular singer, Habeeb Okikiola, commonly called Portable, was arrested by the police on Friday for refusing to honour their invitation.

Recall that earlier on Tuesday, two videos of the musician raining curses and rough-handling some men of the Nigeria police surfaced on the internet.

Portable’s arrest by the Ogun police command is coming after the police gave a 72-hour ultimatum to the singer, which elapses today, Friday.

The police who had condemned the singer’s actions also threatened to prosecute him.

Portable had claimed that an internet fraudster had brought the police to his bar to arrest staff members “for no reason.”

But the police noted that it acted on a petition.

Speaking on the development, the Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer, Abimbola Oyeyemi, confirmed that the singer has been arrested and currently cooling his feet at the state headquarters of the police in Eleweran, Abeokuta.

Oyeyemi further said the Zazu crooner was arrested after refusing five invitations.

Mike Bamiloye Hits Hard At Nollywood Actors

By John Michael Ojo
Veteran movie producer and actor, Mike Bamiloye has raised concern over the alarming rate of nudity among actors and actresses in  Nigerian home videos.

The Mount Zion Ministries founder who expressed worry  following the recent release of ‘Shanty Town’, where actor, Richard Mofe-Damijo popularly known as RMD and Nancy Isime played a role which many have described to be in contrast with the Nigeria Censored Board, urged filmmakers to be cautious of the role they play as it can have a negative impact on their immediate families and the society at large.

Taking to his Instagram account on Thursday, Bamiloye wrote:

“HEAR ME, ACTORS AND ACTRESSES!

May God rescue us from this Powerful Tool of Manipulation!” Mike Bamiloye.
