Operatives of the Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission (EFCC) ransacked the
residence of the founder of the
Jonathan/Sambo Youth Support
Movement (JYSM) also known as
Jonathan Youth Vanguard, Mr. George
Turnah, carting away several documents
before leaving.
The country home of Turner, situated in
Kolo town, Ogbia Local Government
Area, Bayelsa State, a few minutes’
drive from the former President’s
Otuoke abode, was raided by the
officials of the anti-graft agency who
were in search of incriminating evidence
against the 33-year-old businessman
and politician.
However, Turnah, who bagged a
Member of the Order of the Niger (MON)
award in 2011 during the erstwhile
Jonathan administration, was said to
have escaped just minutes before the
security operatives arrived.
It wasn’t particularly clear for what
reason the EFCC was after the man
popularly known as the godson to
Goodluck Jonathan but he was said to
have handled several contracts for the
Jonathan government and as a former
Special Assistant to two former
Managing Directors of the Niger Delta
Development Commission (NDDC).
