Nigeria has been moving in the right direction for some time now, thanks in no small measure to the tightening of loopholes by the CBN. Since February 2010, when Nigeria made a high-level political commitment to work with the FATF and GIABA to address its strategic AML/CFT deficiencies, Nigeria has made significant progress to improve its AML/CFT regime.Improving Global AML/CFT Compliance: On-going process - 21 June 2013 1 Like |

Yaa!! And about 2months ago, Nigeria won d BEST IMPLEMENTING COUNTRY IN THE WORLD on transparency in Oil/Mining Exploitation by EITI; yea, that right: Nigeria's NEITI won that award this year (this was after this same EITI threatened to suspend Nigeria about 2 years, same as this FATC did in 2010). I just like President Jonathan. The guy, who unlike past Nigerian leaders and in spite of lots of NOISE made by Nigeria's plenty loud mouths, always keeps his cool and tries to work methodically by changing underlining Systems/Processes/Institutions in order to achieve long lasting Objectives in stead of only playing to d gallery and winning small 'victories' today. In terms of Transperancy: signing d FOI Bill (Nigeria's most extensive move to OPEN up Governance, and a bill that EVERY other previous leada, including d last two, refused to consider); Greater Openness in Govt, including such 'details' as how much d State House spends in feeding itself and her guests (stuffs previously regarded as 'State Secrets' by past administrations); Pushing tru Nigeria's longest series of more transperant Elections in d nation's history (Anambra, Ondo, Adamawa, Sokoto, Edo, 2011, etc)- a KEY Prerequisite for more Openness; Instituting such programmes as IPPIS so as to track public spending, esp Salaries/Overheads, and d sanitation of d workforce of Ghost workers, etc; Instituting Processes that wud force Every tier of Govt and even Private Cops to use a Single Standard Accounting framework from Jan 2014- one of d 1st countries in Africa that wud start using d UN recommended system; Pushing tru d passage of d PIB Bill, a bill that wud radically change d face and current deep secrecy in d Oil/Gas Industry by amongst other tins breaking up d still very corrupt NNPC (of course, d Clowns at d NA hv been sitting on d bill for more than a year now and d HYPOCRITES who were initiali making lots of Noise b4 d President sent d bill to d NA hv all kept Mute whilst lawmakers sit on it); Etc, Etc. Granted there is still LOTS OF WORK to be done in order to fight Corruption in this country (I wud be d 1st person to admit that, esp d need to constitute Special Courts/Judges for Corruption Cases in order to fasten up d embarrasingly snail slow speed that presently is the case), this Govt is doing a relatively Good job at Openness and Transperancy (certainly more than any previous Govt), and we have to ENGAGE the Govt in order to get even more lasting Results. 18 Likes |

awodman: @eguerilla I want to hear your thoughts on this..does it mean Jonathan is fighting corruption afterall? No sir, Nigeria has been moving in the right direction on this front in spite of Jonathan's devil-may-care attitude to corruption, and not because of any concerted efforts being made to stem its spread. It is to the 2013 Africa Central Bank Governor of the Year that I give credit on this one. Politicians Stacking Dollars For 2015 polls –Sanusi Source 2 Likes |

But for this, you would not have the temerity to issue moi any kind of warning. Tell GEJ to sit up and attend to the growing pile of cases arraigned against some of his benefactors and closest allies, and I might change my mind about his tenure. Until then, zip it and let's focus of the wider implications of our removal from FATF's list of monitored countries. 4 Likes |

awodman: What hatred are you talking about here? Since when did holding someone to the same set of standards you hold yourself become hatred? You asked a specific question about 'corruption', I gave you a specific answer. Now you wider the goal posts by raising pedestrian questions like: "who does Sanusi report to"? When Soludo make an attempt to re-denominate the Naira, it was his idea - informed no doubt by the quality of advisers he had - and guess what; for good or bad, he ultimately fell on his own sword. I don't go around ascribing every bad deed to the President, just as I refrain from giving him kudos that have not been earned. Call it tough standards - if you will - but "hatred" it ain't! Once again, I would rather stick with the theme of this thread, so as not to lose sight of the topic it addresses. Feel free to take me up on what you might consider 'hypocrisy' elsewhere. 4 Likes |

One must forgive their never ending obsequiousness, as that much is to be expected. When OBJ was moving us in the right direction with FATF on the one hand while laundering money through the likes of Andy Uba, I called him out. So why should Jonathan's abhorrence for an anti-corruption campaign be considered any differently?. @awodman, if you are interested in debating me henceforth, you are going to have to watch your choice of language. 1 Like |
