theoctopus: Richard Akinnola II Wrote
I just confirmed from Vanguard that the letter is real and
that the woman even spoke with them last night before
production

Sorry to disappoint you guys...

Raggedy_Ann:



A QC alumnus wouldn't sound as unpolished as this, let alone someone who went on to obtain a Phd! This retort (abi disclaimer) was put together in such a hurry that who ever wrote it forgot to disguise the obvious vulgarity.

That letter Iyabo wrote was articulate, astute and quite impressive.

theoctopus:

You are a dundee! How do you think Newspapers publish stories? Especially this kind of stories that have serious consequences? Are you smarter than Vanguard? Obviously not.

They get an authentic copy, they call the person to confirm and verify and them they go to press. The story is available on the Vanguard site as PDF. Some of you are too childish

Demdem: I have no doubt in my mind that Abati knows who drafted that letter accredited to her considering the fact that vanguard is in the payroll of the presidency.

Anyway, objs letter to Jonathan still stands and that is my primary concern not some family bullshit that is none if my business.

DEAR THE OCTOPUS,

YOU WILL SEE A SIGNATURE THERE, HENCE OBJ HAD NOT DENIED IT.

PLEASE LET US DISCUSS THIS INTELLECTUALLY AND NOT LIKE TOUTS.
OK, IT IS YOUR TURN TO BRING A BETTER ARGUMENT.

decrox199: If that is how Ijaw people insult their father, I am a Yoruba Woman, we respect our parent in all circumstances.

king94: Do you sign letters written to your father? Informal letters are hardly signed.

Habakus: He that comes to equity must do so with clean hands. I bet Obj was too full of himself to envisage that his infamous letter to GEJ would unearth such dirty secrets about him.His evil agenda have been bared for all to see by none other than his own very daughter.Talk about cruel twist of fate! In saner climes this man Obj should be somewhere hiding his head in deep shame for all the atrocities he committed...How about the several political assasinations that happened during his disastrous regime that no one has been brought to justice for? How about the series of constant fuel scarcity palava that were the hallmark during his tenure? How about the numerous politcal witch-hunting of perceived enemies by the EFCC and their likes during his tenure? What of the ethnic cleansing that took place at several places by the military under his watch? What of the illegal privatisations and sales of various sectors of the nation's collective wealth to himself and his cronies during his tenure? How about his bid to perpetuate himself by going for a third tenure? Not all Nigerians are dumb.we know the people causing these problems,except if we want to continue deceiving ourselves. To those who say that the letter by Iyabo to Obj was not duly signed,i ask you to show me where this her purported denial note was signed. Peace.

Reptyle:

Perhaps you are the only one in this country that thought OBJ was a saint...I'm sure everyone else knew that the man was not perfect...now you know also; that is if you choose to believe that Iyabo actually wrote that letter to her father.

superstar1:

....and you went ahead to publish an unsigned correspondence purportedly emanating from ''daughter to father''

They will need a SAN that was trained in Oxford, Cambridge and harvard for the suit that will come their way.

Informal letters are hardly signed but you can write your qualifications -- PhD DVM while writing to your father?

mancheeutd:

GOOD QUESTION BUT THE MOTIVE BEHIND THIS LETTER PUBLISHED BY VANGUARD AND NOT SENT DIRECTLY TO HER FATHER IS FOR NIGERIANS TO SEE IT AND BE THAT AS IT MAY TO AVERT ANY FORM OF CONFUSION THIS LETTER IF TRULY IS WRITTEN BY IYABO SHOULD HAVE CARRIED HER SIGNATURE EITHER FORMAL OR INFORMAL NA NAIJA WEY DEY O ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE

chi 3280: Is that what you think? Smh at the level of illiteracy being displayed on this forum.

king94: I don't think a newspaper would go to print witout some evidence of proof. I've not heard d 'rainbow interview' so I can't jump to conclusions. I'm not supporting any1 because I don't know wot has been done and said in private. I would never jump to the defence of politicians because d majority are thieves and don't care about d ppl shouting on nairaland.

superstar1:

the only evidence supplied by Vanguard his questionable and unverifiable. That is what we are trying to tell you.

Vanguard got carried away with the euphoria of letter writing season too much, that they forgot to do their basics. That letter is not signed and it can never be tendered in court against defamation. No matter the source they got the letter from.

they are on a veryyyyy long thinggggggg.

Olaolufred:

Don,t bring yourself to king94 level.
I am already trying to let him learn.
He is wrong. Nothing can be otherwise.

king94: Yeah. U have a point nd I give it to you. However, I wouldn't be so hasty to discredit d letter. Let's watch nd see how it unfolds.

Olaolufred:

Thanks.

If you want to wait, It is a good choice.

The mistake you made was to make that comment instead of waiting.

You can keep waiting.

But, OBJ can finish Vanguard with this if he wants to.
