Whistle-blower arraigned and remanded in prison


A Kaduna State High Court, remanded a whistleblower, Abubakar Sani-Chindo, in prison for allegedly providing false information that led to the raid on former Vice-President Namadi Sambo’s residence in Kaduna, by Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offence Commission, last month.

Sambo’s house was raided three-times by the anti-graft agency, but failed to find incriminating documents or stashed cash in the building.

The ICPC, in two counts before Justice Aliyu Mohammed, accused Sani-Chindo of providing false information that led to the reported raid.

Counsel for the ICPC, Elijah Akaakohol, added that the whistle-blower sometime on June 21, 2017, gave the false information to the commission.

UCJ, UNILORIN.
