saraki's chief of staff plaza in abuja


In continuation of its fight against corruption, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on Wednesday embargo on Capital Hub, A shopping plaza in Abuja.

The plaza located at Plot 272, Banex/Gwarimpa Expressway, Mabushi, Abuja is said to be owned by Senator Isa Galaudu, Senate President Bukola Saraki’s chief of staff.
An eye witness said everyone doing business there at the time of the operation by the anti-graft agency, were asked to vacate the premises.
However, a source close to owner of the plaza said Senator Galauda is not in anyway connected with the current probe of the EFCC, wondering why the Plaza had to be sealed without a justifiable reason.
He said the land the plaza is sitting on was allocated to the senator as far back as 1991 when no development has taken place in the area.
Another source who said he owns one of the shops in the plaza told Abusidiqu that he is sad over the development, confirming that the EFCC erred in its action.
“We have gone to the EFCC to complain over the development and they have apologised and asked us to return back to our business”, the source said.
“They asked us to clean the ‘EFCC’ markings painted in red and open our shops and we have since done that.”
He said the target of the agency is one Hadiza Mamu, who operates Prim & Proper Halal Salon and Spa in Suite 411 of the plaza.
Halima is the daughter of Air Vice Marshal Alkali Mamu, one of the serving military personnel ordered to be investigated by President Muhammadu Buhari in relation to the arms procurement scandal.
Abusidiqu was unable to get the comment of the EFCC spokesperson, Wilson Uwajuren.
Checks by Abusidiqu reveals that normal business activities has since resumed at the plaza.

A new vaccine-based treatment for HIV has succeeded in suppressing the virus in five patients, raising hopes further research could help prevent Aids without the need for daily drugs. Independent of the United Kingdom reported on Friday that researchers combined two innovative HIV vaccines with a drug usually used to treat cancer in the trial, conducted over three years at the IrsiCaixa Aids Research Institute in Barcelona. After receiving the treatment, the virus was undetectable in five out of 24 participants and its spread was stopped by their immune systems, reported the New Scientist. One of them has been drug-free for seven months. Around 18 million people – half of all those living with HIV around the world – take ART to slow the progression of the infection, according to the UN. But these drugs are expensive and can cause unpleasant side effects. Patients have to remember to take them every day, sometimes over their entire lives. Mitchell Warren, executive dire
