‘Your response to my IG post shows you’re jobless’ — Mompha hits back at EFCC

Published

on

Ismaila Mustapha, the Nigerian socialite better known as Mompha, has fired back at the EFCC for asking him to prove his corruption claims against the agency.

Last week, a witness revealed that the anti-graft agency discovered up to N35 billion in bank accounts traced back to the socialite.

Mompha, who is facing trial for alleged money laundering to the tune of N6 billion, had described the EFCC as the “most corrupt agency in Nigeria”.

Reacting to the claim, the EFCC dared the socialite to provide evidence of corruption against its operatives.

Tackling the EFCC in an Instagram post, Mompha argued that the commission’s response to his Instagram post shows they are “jobless”.

He claimed the charges against him were “cooked up by some corrupt officials for personal gains”.

“My attention has once again been drawn to the social media tantrum of the efcc demanding that I prove corruption allegation against them,” he wrote.

“The fact that the commission, particularly their chairman could stoop so low to respond to my post shows clearly how useless, jobless the efcc is and how they waste taxpayers money on exchanging banters on social media.

“Now, I won’t bother to dwell on the trumped-up charges that was cooked up against me for personal gains by some of their corrupt officials and mere media trial because the fact speaks for itself but will rather dwell on how useless this commission under the leadership of the Chairman.

“Because why will the efcc on Friday, 5th of July, 2024 step outside of their constitutional duty and litter armed men on the streets of Lagos and Abuja all in the name of preventing citizens from protesting against the corruption being displayed by the Efcc, thereby infringing on their fundamental right to lawfully protest and preventing innocent citizens from going about their lawful business.

“Another example is beating up innocent citizens during their illegal and night raids ( we all saw what happened in Ondo state and recently in Lagos which the commission reluctantly admitted on its social media platform).

‘Now back to my case, the efcc claimed they have “overwhelming evidence of my involvement in money laundering”, however the question is; who is this faceless person I laundered money for?; does the person not have a name?; did you mention the name of the person in the trumped-up charges before the court?

“Your commission is clearly the one drowning and clutching to any straw, when they quickly rushed to the media to post one side of the evidence of your witness in court when he was yet to be cross examined just to gain social media trend with my name, whereas all he said in court were lies with no evidential proof, which would all come to light on the next court date. To confirm how useless they are again they will reply me again and i will be waiting with more proof.”

‘If you had powers, your two wives would still be alive’ — VeryDarkMan replies Lazarus Muoka

VeryDarkMan, the controversial activist, has hit back at Lazarus Muoka, the general overseer of The Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministries, for calling him out.

The church has been under scrutiny since clips of the members sharing their strange testimonies went viral on social media.

In a recent video, Muoka called out VeryDarkMan, saying he was told the activist “made negative comments about my church”.

The cleric alleged that the social media influencer said “Chosen members will learn the hard way”.

Mouka said he told the person “VeryDarkMan is learning something today in a hard way” — implying that the activist is in a difficult situation due to his remarks about Chosen.

Reacting via his Instagram page, VeryDarkMan questioned Muoka’s powers, citing his “wives’ mysterious deaths”.

The social media influencer also criticised the church testimonies, referring to them as “exaggerated and ridiculous”.

“If you had this power, your two wives would still be alive. In 2010 you lost your first wife, Joy Muoka and then again you lost your second wife, ‘Pastor Ngozi Muoka. You should have worn ‘They are chosen’ clothes on their body so they would not have died,” he said.

“… miracle happens but not in the way your church members explain. They are exaggerating it.”

It was gathered that Mouka’s first wife died in 2010. His second wife was said to have passed away in July last year. She was buried buried last month.

Atinuke Kazeem, the Nigerian actress better known as Mama No Network, has opened up about her broken marriage to Baba Lanko, her colleague.

In an interview with actress Biola Bayo, Mama No Network revealed how she and Baba Lanko initially worked together to produce films.

She said their relationship, however, began to crumble after he found success and sought to marry another woman.

She claimed that after the dissolution of their marriage, Lanko blocked her from appearing in the same films as him. She added that but now, he hires her for roles.

“My ex-husband, Lanko, and I worked hard to produce many films. But when money and fame came, he told me he wanted to marry a new wife,” she said.

“After we parted ways, he told producers not to feature me in the same projects as him. Today, however, he now uses his money to call me for movie roles, and I give glory to God.”

The actress also recounted the struggles she faced with infertility during their marriage, including undergoing extreme measures like drinking kerosene, which made her bloated.

She added that God eventually “answered her prayers” by making her conceive naturally.

“I wasn’t the one who left the marriage; he simply stopped coming home. During our time together, I faced immense difficulties while trying to have a child. I went through hell,” she added.

“At one point, I was given kerosene to drink. All those desperate measures affected me, leading to my bloated stomach. When I finally gave up hope, God answered my prayers, and the pregnancy came naturally.”

In May 2023, Mama No Network remarried. She tied the knot to a younger partner.
