N204m Bribe: HOW OBA’S MEN DISOWNED HIM AT THE FEDERAL HIGH COURT

Sen. OBA

 

#OBAofBribe

On February 7th, 2022,  Senator Bassey Albert  presented two witnesses before Justice Agatha Okeke at the Federal High Court in Uyo to prove his innocence in the bribery and money laundering case against him by EFCC. 

The witnesses,  Pastor Kubiat Etang and Rt. Hon. Kennedy Ekong, who were cross examined by EFCC prosecuting counsel, Attah Ocholi, said exactly the opposite of the what their principal hired them to say. 

The witnesses, under cross examination, claimed they were members of Bassey Albert’s campaign team in 2015 and that they each received the alleged bribery vehicles for campaign purposes of their principal. However, they were unable to disclose the particulars of the vehicles and also did not know the nature of the transaction between the embattled Senator and Jide Omokore. They also said they were not privy to the procurement of the vehicles and could not ascertain where the vehicles where taken to by OBA. They refused to accept that they were in custody of the contentious vehicles, despite the appeal by their principal. 

What this means is that OBA of Bribe’s men ended up defending themselves and implicating their principal. 

If his own bone men, could understand that it is better to say NO to the #OBAofBribe, who are we to say yes?
