Chimaroke Nnamani an artful dodger, says EFCC

He is expectedly a highly skilled medical doctor by training, and also a well-respected writer, noted for his popular Ebeano column; but former governor of Enugu State, Chimaroke Nnamani, seems to have added yet another skill to his list of competences – an artful dodger. In 2007 the EFCC beamed its searchlight on Nnamani, his former aide, Sunday Anyaogu, and six companies in which he had interests, but his trial has over the past eight years been stalled, owing largely to Nnamani’s “ill-health”.

He claimed to have suffered complication after undergoing a quadruple open heart by-pass. Indeed, at his June 17, 2014 trial in court, a morose Nnamani clasped his hand on his chest throughout.

Yet, earlier in the year, his supporters had celebrated his “triumphant” re-entry into politics, as Nnamani revved up his political machinery bidding for a return to the Senate. Nnamani, in fact, contested in the March 28, 2015 election, seeking to represent Enugu East Senatorial Zone, and declared himself winner in controversial circumstances.

His medical condition didn’t count when the Green Chambers was at stake. What a country.
