Money swallowing snake: Shehu Sani storms JAMB HQ with snake repellant

The Senator representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District , Shehu Sani , has stormed the headquarters of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board in Bwari , Federal Capital Territory , with snake charmers .
The senator also seized the opportunity to present JAMB with snake repellent chemicals .

Sani said the visit was to enable stakeholders to get to the bottom of the issues surrounding the reported case of missing N 36 m from the JAMB office in Makurdi , Benue State .

One Philomena Chieshe , a sales clerk in the JAMB office , Makurdi , told JAMB registrar and his team that she could not account for the N36 m she made in previous years before the abolition of scratch cards .

“In the course of interrogation , Philomena denied the allegations that she stole the money, but confessed that her housemaid connived with another JAMB staff to spiritually ( through a snake ) steal the money from the vault in the account office ,” the report said .
Sani said his visit to JAMB was in response to the story that a snake swallowed N36 m .

He lamented that it was of concern that such a huge sum of money was reported to have been swallowed by a snake .

“I believe that the contribution I can make is to bring snake charmers from my constituency to the JAMB office and to help them fish out the snake and weed out snakes from their premises.”

Sani further said that if a snake could actually swallow N 36 m , one day , Nigerians might wake up to say that a snake had swallowed the country ’s foreign reserve.

“Even if it is a spiritual matter , we believe that these people I brought are some of the best snake charmers in the country and they will help in arresting both physical and spiritual snakes if there has been any in the JAMB office .”

He explained that it was very clear the incident did not happen during the tenure of the JAMB Registrar , Prof . Ishaq Oloyede.

“We are very proud of him . We believe he is someone who should continue to run this agency.

“It is good for Nigerians to know this is what happened before he came into office . I believe the best thing we can do is to continue to support him.

“It is time Nigerians knew that there may be other dirty things happening in other places , but this place has exposed it for us . We know the truth and I’ m very happy about that .”

Sani presented snake repellents and chemicals to the board .
