M23 says hundreds of Burundi soldiers captured in latest Congo offensive The Rwanda-backed M23 group has captured hundreds of Burundian soldiers during its latest offensive in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, a rebel official said, as clashes continued despite a warning from the Trump administration. Last week M23 entered the strategic town of Uvira near the border with Burundi, less than a week after the presidents of Congo and Rwanda met in Washington with U.S. President Donald Trump and affirmed their commitment to a peace deal known as the Washington Accords.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,EFCC,hereby warns the general public to be wary of the activities of the duo of NNOCENT ONYEKACI ORITSETIMEYIN AKPOTEDJA ADJENUHGURE and ADEOLA SAM OPEYEMI who have been misleading Nigerians with false information about the activities of the Commission.Barely six hours after the Supreme Court judgment in the case of the Peoples Democratic Party,PDP,where it ruled in favour of the Senator Ahmed Makarfi's faction,Adjenuhgure posted in his Facebook Timeline that $42 million was found in Se. Makarfi's farm by the EFCC ''less than 2 hours after the Supreme Court judgment''.While many unsuspecting Nigerians shared the unfounded post,others simply copied and reposted as original which generated myriad of reactions suggestive that the Commission was a tool in the hands of the Executive to further destabilize the PDP.Following efforts by the Commission to correct the erroneous and misleading information through its social media platforms,some who had no ulterior motive apologized and deleted the post.Sadly,ADJENUHGURE and OPEYEMI stood their grounds as they insisted that the story was true.We have considered it necessary to set the record straight and to advice social media activitis to be wary of ADJENUHGURE and OPEYEMI who are out to sow seed of discord among Nigerians as there is no EFCC investigation on Senator Makarfi.
