Recall that $1 million found in the soak-away of an retired Air Vice Marshall? Remember the picture that All Progressives Congress (APC) online activists were sharing and swearing by their parents name that it is the dollars found in the ‘freshly dug soak away’? I mean the one found few days ago?
Well, it turns out that the picture has been online since November last year! And it wasn’t even on the continent of Africa it was taken in far away Colombia in South America. See original story HERE.
But as usual, gullible Nigerians were fooled into believing that this picture was $1 million cash found by the EFCC in a Lagos soak away pit.
Just the same way we were regaled with the story of how Chief Olisa Metuh ate his statement, only for the same EFCC to come in court and deny Olisa ever ate any statement.
It is also the same way Colonel Sambo Dasuki was accused of ‘father christmasing’ $2.1 dollars meant to “purchase nuclear weapons to wipe Boko Haram off the face of the earth” only for DSS and EFCC to come to court and not make even one reference to the ‘shared money’. Dasuki’s charge sheet reads something about an irregular exit from the army, no mention of any billions of dollars.
Let’s never mind that a military discipline matter is now being prosecuted – not by the military in a military court. But by the Buhari’s secret police headed by Buhari’s cousin, in a civilian court.
If at this point you still believe any of the cock and bull stories from APC, you need your head checked.
