FOLLOWING a fresh invitation by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission inviting Senator Jonah Jang to report to its Kano office on 5th December 2018, the Senator has declared that he will not honour the invitation and asked the Commission to pick another date in January 2019.
It would be recalled that the former Governor of Plateau State, Senator Jonah Jang is standing trial at Jos High Court as a result of the suit filed against him by the EFCC over some financial misdemeanours while in office as governor of the state.
At the last sitting of the case, the presiding judge, Justice Daniel Longji adjourned the case to 4th December 2018 for hearing.

However, Senator Jang in a statement signed by his Media Consultant, Mr Clinton Garuba explained that the decision to turn down the invitation was to enable him appear in court in Jos where he is under trial having been charged to court by the same commission, and the matter is expected to commence definite hearing about the date of the invitation.
He stated that it was baffling how the EFCC expected the serving senator to be in two places at the same time since he does not possess any psychic abilities.
Explaining further, Garuba said that the Senator’s fresh invitation “is not unconnected with the story in the news alleging that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has traced a mansion worth N500million to him.”
He said, “The property located at No. 8 and 9 Gobarau Road, Unguwan Rimi GRA, Kaduna State does not belong to Senator Jang, and this is not the first time the commission would investigate its ownership. The property formerly belonging to Northern Nigerian Development Company, Kaduna, was allocated to the Senator while he was the executive Governor of Plateau State but eventually lost interest and did not continue with the acquisition.
“EFCC has this information and it knows the actual owners of the said property. Unfortunately but deliberately EFCC continues to harass the Senator in its usual media trials aimed at tarnishing his glowing name and reputation.”
