EFCC Arrests Lagos Socialite, Fred Ajudua In Abuja

The Nigeria Anti-Graft Agency, Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested Fred Ajudua, a Lagos-based socialite and businessman, in connection with an alleged $1.43 million fraud.

The arrest took place in Abuja on Tuesday, following a Supreme Court order issued on Friday, 5 May 2025, which revoked his bail and directed that he be remanded in the Correctional Service.

A highly placed source at the EFCC headquarters in Abuja who spoke in confidence, informed Vanguard of the development on Tuesday evening.

“Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have arrested Lagos-based socialite and businessman Fred Ajudua, pending his re-arraignment for an alleged $1.43 million fraud. He was arrested in Abuja on Tuesday and is currently in EFCC custody,” the source said.

The arrest marks the latest chapter in a legal battle spanning decades between Ajudua and the anti-corruption agency. A former socialite, Ajudua has faced numerous allegations of advance-fee fraud since the 1990s.

The Supreme Court’s decision to revoke his bail followed an earlier ruling by the Court of Appeal, Lagos Division, which had granted him bail. The apex court’s ruling reflects the judiciary’s resolve to uphold accountability in high-profile fraud cases.

However, there are indications that Ajudua may have absconded prior to his arrest, raising concerns about the enforcement of judicial orders and the effectiveness of compliance mechanisms.

Ajudua’s legal troubles date back to 1993, when he was accused of defrauding a German businessman of $1.43 million.

He has since faced further allegations, including defrauding two Dutch nationals of $1.69 million between 1999 and 2000, and allegedly swindling former Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Ishaya Bamaiyi, of $8.4 million in 2004 while both were detained at Kirikiri Prison.

In 2016, the EFCC filed a 28-count charge against him for conspiracy and obtaining money by false pretences. The case has been plagued by repeated delays, health-related bail applications, and a failed arrest attempt in 2007.

Pope Leo XIV Renews Call For Peace In Meeting With Journalists

The calls for peace was renewed on Monday, as Pope Leo XIV shared his first public audience with journalists at the Vatican to implore the news media to continue to shed light on conflicts around the world.

Pope Leo in his words said “You are at the forefront of reporting on conflicts and aspirations for peace, on situations of injustice and poverty, and on the silent work of so many people striving to create a better world. For this reason, I ask you to choose consciously and courageously the path of communication in favor of peace.”

The Pope, who thanked the audience in English before switching to Italian, also expressed solidarity with journalists imprisoned for their reporting, drawing applause from the auditorium.

Many of the journalists present reported on the death and funeral of Leo’s predecessor, Pope Francis, the conclave that elected Leo last week and the first days of his papacy.

Pope Leo has just finished his news conference in Vatican City, during which he emphasised the importance of careful communication “in favour of peace”.

He urged the assembled press to say no to the “war” of words and images, and he reiterated the Church’s solidarity with imprisoned journalists “seeking the truth” and asked for their release.

Concluding his address, he quoted his predecessor, Pope Francis:

“Let us disarm communication of all prejudice and resentment, fanaticism and even hatred. Let us free it from aggression.

“We do no need loud forceful communication, but rather communication that is capable of listening and of gathering the voices of the weak who have no voice.

“Let us disarm words and we will help to disarm the world.”

Muraina Ajibola Saubana Set To Empower Another Set Of 250 APC Party Members And Constituents

A three-term former member who represented Ibarapa Central and Ibarapa North at the House of Representatives Abuja, Hon. Dr Muraina Saubana Ajibola is set to empower another set of two hundred and fifty party faithfuls of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in his constituency.

The program will be coming up in his Igboora residence-Olawumi Agbeke Gardens, on the 14th May, 2025.

You will recall that Muraina had (in February, 2024) empowered over five hundred constituents with over one hundred motorcycles, 500 grinding machines and six tricycles; all to the tune of about 300million naira.

This time, empowerment items not limited to but include: Sewing machines, Farm sprayers and Hairdressing equipment will be given to two hundred and fifty selected constituents comprising of party members, farmers and artisans.

Briefing the media on the program, Muraina gave reasons for continuing the empowerment program even after leaving the office that ” it is not until we occupy elective positions before we think of contributing to human capacity development of our people. Anytime God give us the opportunity to extend our little support for the betterment of our communities. We should feel free to do that, as part of our inclusive efforts to complement people-friendly governments programs”.

In the past two years, Muraina facilitated the installation and commission of twelve solar powered boreholes across the constituency, adding up to about fifty in numbers (including the ones facilitated while serving as the member of House of Representatives, Abuja).

Shortly during the empowerment program, the former lawmaker will be using the opportunity to commission some of the solar powered boreholes which he facilitated recently, while not in office.

Muraina appreciate the renewed hope policies and programs of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration, which is gradually yielding positive results, and urged Nigerians to support government in implementing and sustaining its policies.

He also implored the “beneficiaries to be” to use the items to further establish themselves as successful and emerging entrepreneur. He also urged the constituents to exercise patience as he continue to harness significant opportunities like this, for the benefit of all.
