Security operatives storm Sambo’s residence, threaten to shoot his neighbours

Heavily armed operatives of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) stormed the Kaduna residence of former Vice-President Namadi Sambo on Wednesday.

Accompanied by men of the Department of State Services (DSS) and state anti-robbery squad (SARS), officials of the commission spent two hours searching the house located at 1, Alimi road, GRA, Kaduna.

A source said the operatives came with a search warrant which they handed over to the guards they met there.

The major road leading to the house was blocked during the operation, subjecting motorists and passerby to hardship.

“On arrival, they warned that anybody that moved around would be shot,” a resident said.

Umar Sani, spokesman Sambo, confirmed that the officials came with a warrant.

Sani said it was not the first time the house was being searched.

“This is not the first time they are searching the house. They have been coming to search the house on several occasions,” he said.

“Today they came with a court order and gave a copy of the court order to the CSO (chief security officer) in the house.”

After they finished the search, they wrote at the back page of the warrant that they gave to the CSO that they did not find anything and they left.

  1. Shame shame shame. ; to a glue less government and sss, the only thing they can do with the power we gave is to embarrassed innocent citizens. Is it a crime to be rich?

  2. This is most unfortunate, searching the residence of a former vice president like a common thief ,i can bet you the former administration will regret that they conceded defeat with the manner the former president and his vice are been treated two years after they left office. I think it’s time for the Buhari administration to move on. The talk about what the past administration failed to do almost at every forum or interview from the current cop of leaders in Abuja is annoying and a pointer to the fact that they have nothing to offer. It’s going t three years ,time to move on and accept your crass failure in almost all direction of governance .

    1. Conceding defeat is nothing, cos they were not doing anybody any favor. It’s the law, that’s how PMB will still concede defeat by 2019 cos it’s still gonna be the law
