Just like the Presidency, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), has also slammed UK Bank, HSBC for saying that the second term of President Muhammadu Buhari would stunt the economy. While the EFCC is expected to act independently without political interference, the agency stated that the UK bank, HSBC, which is Europe’s largest by total asset, was synonymous with money laundering. The tweet on the commission's official handle reads; ‘The Story of HSBC’, the anti-graft agency said over $100m was laundered by the bank on behalf of Abacha. “The HSBC bank is one of the largest banking and financial services organisations in the world. The HSBC’s international network comprises around 7, 500 offices in over 80 countries and territories in Europe, the Asia-Pacific region, the Americas, the Middle East and Africa. “Since inception, HSBC is synonymous with money laundering and has paid billions of US dollars in fines across the world. “In Nigeria the bank laundered more than $100m for the late dictator, General Sani Abacha, in Jersey, Paris, London and Geneva. The bank is also involved with laundering proceeds of corruption for over 50 Nigerians including a serving Nigerian senator. “Part of Abacha’s assets yet to be recovered are: $12m in HSBC Fund Ltd with number S-104460 in Jersey; $20m in HSBC Life (Europe) with number 37060762 in the UK and $1.6m in HSBC Bank Plc with number 38175076 in the UK. “We shall not rest until every penny belonging to the Federal Republic of Nigeria is repatriated to Nigeria as to improve the lives of the people.” https://lailasnews.com/efcc-also-slams-uk-bank-hsbc-for-predicting-buharis-failure/ 5 Likes 1 Share |

This is an unnecessary faux pas, the government has already responded, when did EFCC become the mouthpiece ? Anyway, let me wait for Ishaq Akintola led MURIC to also come up with his own condemnation of HSBC ... Silly folks. 239 Likes 11 Shares |

This is unfortunate. The implication of this action is far reaching and a minus for the independence of our agencies.

Political EFCC can't resist the urge of ing the macabre dance of shame. What do you expect when the head of a supposed independent anti-graft body was caught on national TV wearing a badge with the inscription "I stand with Buhari"! How low have we sunk under this istration! Everything Buhari inherited, he has destroyed within 3yrs. 148 Likes 12 Shares |

Day 1: Abacha is not a thief. He didn't loot Day 3: HSBC is holding Abacha's looted funds. Who shall we believe? Buhari was PTF secretary under Abacha's regime 88 Likes 1 Share |

PDP needs to let President Trump know that Buhari being in power beyond 2019 is a danger to him if he seeks a second term in office. APC will financially his opponents like they tactically did in 2016. It is time for him to wear the Big Sam shoes. 22 Likes |
