Chairman of ThisDay Newspaper and President of the Newspapers
Proprietors Association of Nigeria (NPAN), Nduka Obaigbena,
submitted himself to the EFCC on Tuesday Jan. 26th after being indicted
in the on-going arms deal scandal. He is alleged to have received N670
million from the office of the NSA, which he acknowledged but said N500
million was paid to
ThisDay as compensation for the terrorist attack on the newspaper by
Boko Haram and the rest was distributed as compensation to other
newspapers houses whose offices were invaded by the military when it
seized copies of
papers and obstructed circulation operations.
