The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Thursday, informed a Lagos High Court in Ikeja, western Nigeria, that an oil marketer, Oluwaseun Ogunbambo, who is being prosecuted over an alleged N979.6 million subsidy fraud, has fled to Canada.
Ogunbambo and another oil marketer, Habila Theck are standing trial alongside their firm— Fargo Energy Ltd.
At the resumption of hearing Thursday, EFCC counsel told the presiding judge, Justice Adeniyi Onigbanjo, that information at the commission’s disposal shows that Ogunbambo has absconded to Canada.
Justice Onigbanjo had on 10 February issued a bench warrant against Ogunbambo after he failed to appear before the court for the continuation of the trial.
Ogunbambo’s lawyer, Raphael Oluyede, however, dismissed the EFCC’s allegation, saying that his client was absent from court because he was recently attacked by some unidentified gunmen who had wanted to abduct him.
He, however, declined to affirm whether his client has travelled to Canada.
Moving an application which he had earlier filed on behalf of his client, Oluyede urged the court to stay execution of the bench warrant on Ogunbambo and also restrain the EFCC from arresting him.
Oluyede said this was pending the hearing and determination of Ogunbambo’s appeal against the bench warrant which had been filed before the Court of Appeal, Lagos.
Opposing the application, Jackson said the EFCC had not been able to execute the bench warrant as ordered by the court.
“We have deposed in our affidavit that intelligence available to the EFCC is that the defendant (Ogunbambo) has left the country to Canada.
“The commission is concerned because of the number of cases we have filed against him. He has abused the liberty of being granted bail and his action is making the criminal law to look like a toothless bulldog,” he said.
He debunked the claim that Ogunbambo was recently attacked by some unidentified gunmen, adding that it was evident that he was no longer in Nigeria.
“This particular application is an application that ought to be dismissed because it is an abuse of court process,” Jackson said.
The judge, however, adjourned the matter till 28 April for ruling on the application. - PMNews

ReplyDeleteWhat of Olatimbo his partner in crime, Naijas most wanted woman. Criminals. Interpol will fish them out where ever they are hiding.
ReplyDeletehow did he escape?
ReplyDeleteSharp guy.........
ReplyDeletetwerks out*
Yep he's def in Canada with his fiance Chief Akande daughter. Where they re rubbishing the money
ReplyDeleteThis is reason why we have 2laws in Nigeria one for the poor and other for the rich. Can a poor man run away from justice in Nigeria? if such happens to a normal guy or poor guy the Nigeria police will arrest everyone at his house,they will visit his village to arrest his parents. Efcc can't arrest big fish like him, only boys trying to make ends need because of unemployment. By the way, what is wrong with Efcc informing Interpol and Canadian government to arrest the fugitive am sure Canadian government can't offer him stay. If their government can move out their embassy from Lagos to Ghana during Abacha regime,they should as well fight justice for us.
ReplyDeleteBefore he was granted this bail he was known to have 4 or more name.. And various passports. He had an irish passport like 2 nigerian all with different names.
ReplyDeleteThat is what Nigerians do, they loot their nation and take off to the white man's land. Ask yourselves ( all you Nigerian looters ) If Europe and America looted their Nations like you all do, will all you looters have a place to run to??? THIEVES!!! I HATE AFRICAN RULERS.
ReplyDeleteFoluke Akande, see ya life for express. My father is this, my father is that, yet you ended up a common criminal. Snooty bitch, anyway sha we no know the source of her papa wealth either. Una see now that Dakore is winning, after the hell you put her through. Karma is a bitch I tell you. That tub of lard, she calls a sister ended up with some basic low life, except that one is penniless. hian i fear o

ReplyDeleteawoof get bone, this akande girl was busy enjoying, bags, shoes and living in banana island not knowing she was enjoying thief thief money. all that glitters is not gold, ladies be warned
ReplyDeleteAkande money don finish, Lou is owing the whole of Lagos money. This is what happens when a father has no tangible legacy to pass on to his kids. None of them work or add any value to society, a big damn shame. So long story short, it is no surprise that Foluke is shacking up with an ole ajibole. But this guy sef no try, him suppose upgrade that your dirty family flat for V/I with all the money when im steal
ReplyDeletethis guy na femo akinruntan's right hand man now, he's just the fall guy in this conspiracy, EFCC need to cast their net wider
ReplyDeleteGod loves Dakore o, dis dirty Akande pple almost used jazz to ruin her life, na God no let dem. See how God is avenging ur case now? dey said u were not good enough to marry into dier family and dis same pple are courting fraudsters, criminals n fugitives. gotta love the humor in dat
ReplyDeletena wa for Akande family, heard the fat one married a security guard, na true?
ReplyDeleteWhy is Feminist Akinrutun's name not there. EFCC please do your job well.
ReplyDeleteGbam! All these fraudsters and their false lifestyle. See the wa Folake's akin run tan is forever flaunting red bottoms with her ashy legs and feet, someone needs to get her some vaseline. Hermes gbogbo e, all na wash
DeleteSeun so this is the source of your wealth ehn, as yoruba people would say, isale oro legbin. Puffing cigars and flexing around town, I hope they lock your black ass up for a very long time
ReplyDeleteI remember this guy and his plenty drama during his numerous bail applications. So, this is why they were reluctant to approve his bail application. He just proved them right. Barawo Oshi!
ReplyDeleteHmmmm Timbo Ayinde's partner in crime truly. Timbo yeye unilag babe who married olodu and became ogboli olosha no. 1 herself courtesy of warming Forte oil boss' bed. The scandals in Lagos will make the ladies of Wisteria Lane blush.
ReplyDeleteTimbo is more olodu than her small olodu husband. Suegbe that knows his wife sleeps around and does nothing. Jailed before and jail will see her sewn up yansh very soon.
ReplyDeleteThis is super story, heard his defence counsel first claimed that he fell in the bath and injured his spinal cord and now they are claiming he was injured when gunmen tried to abduct him. This guy is all of what is wrong with Nigeria, hope they catch him and hang him by his balls, bloody thief. The most annoying part is that people like this don't sit quietly, they frapapa all around town oppressing the weak and poor
ReplyDeleteI don buy case you must be new here Ezewanyi said it herself that she married at 14 cos she is from a poor home and her husby came to lift her poor family in ajegunle.
ReplyDeleteWait a minute! She said it herself? What honesty.....I love her more .....but I remembered she said her village and not ajegunle.May God bless Ezenwanyi and her family.
