tit: This is how northern governors spend their state allocations and impoverish their people.
Sherrif is buying up Tchad.
Kwankwaso is buying up Niger and Sudan. His grandfather is from Sudan.
Shettima is from Sudan and is investing there.

they do not believe in Western Nigeria.

Same way Asari Dokubo is investing in Togo ko?

shine96: True, but how can our security agencies not know where somebody like Ali Modo Sherrif is at any point in time, shame on our country Nigeria.

What does this have to do with anything?

So if the presidency knew he was in Chad they should not have gone or what?

He is just a Bastard....

Chubhie: Boko haram is just a classic case of how not to mix politics with religion. Just maybe some northern governors thought they could use boko same way their south south colleagues did with militants. Never knew Amodu sheriff had that much influence in chad-Islam will always be a uniting factor. I can bet when most of these men were making their bones, Oga jona was busy banging cheerleaders hence he lacks tact and the needed balls to tackle issues. Nigeria needs a strong mad leader whose heart stands at his back not some weak guy trying to use a weak compromised institutions of govt to fight men bigger than united states steel industry. I saw the way the chadian president was kissing jona all over and the body psychology said a thousand words.

STORY FOR THE gods!!!

Mekateka: APC fools are free to believe their propaganda stories about the president, but one thing I want the APC fools to know is that; GEJ will rule Nigeria till 2019. PDP voted him in 2011 and PDP are ever ready to vote for him again in 2015. So APC fools go and disturb the useless Buhari you wasted your vote on and stop disturbing our GEJ because he is only responsible for those that voted for him.

4 ur mind now, u don make sense....... SMH

Those guyz pack serious money bro, you won't know until you get to the north....they are demi-gods with the influence they pack accross them poor African countries

Not backing sheriff tho! but everyone one knows sheriff has business interests with CHad and Niger long before he even became a governor. He was a successful business man and has had close ties with past military govt's in Nigeria, chad n Niger. So the presidency dont know all this! story story

Honestly, i am extremely worried with our Security apparatus in this country. Only a few days before this Chad trip, the DSS woman came on National TV absolving the former COAS of sponsoring Boko Haram but categorically stated that Sheriff is under their investigation & we went to bed believing that he would be under surveilance and his movements restricted but alas, we were just bn fooled.

2ndly, if DSS were doing tracking him and the same DSS were also in possession of GEJ's itinery, should they not have alerted GEJ's Aide de Camp or did the advance team on ground not see Sheriff lining up on the tarmac before GEJ disembarked? At that point they wld have radioed the plane to get clarifications before GEJ stepped out and the Chadian President through his own ADC wld hv bn told that his visitor is uncomfortable wt Sheriff bn there. Sheriff will politely have needed the toilet

3rdly, what does it matter that Sheriff is the Chadian President bosom friend, what if he meant GEJ harm? Is this the type of old wives' tale Presidency will be giving us?

Presidency should learn to admit their blunders and move on and ensure it doesnt repeat itself

And after having said all, GEJ has a lot to be blamed for this. He can insist to the Chadian President that Sheriff be excused, but rated, he was smiling like a Chesire Cat

Y r nigerians so insensitive to Truth? Y cant we for once reason nd tak things as dey r instead of politicising evrytin. Dis news explains explicitely Y Sherif waz in chad welcomin GEJ nd not part of GEJ team. Simple

We are very funny in this country. Most of the post here claims government is lying without giving us evidence that will counter government assertion.
If sheriff was in Chad does that stop the president from having bilateral discussion on security with thechadian president.
Sheriff name was not in the list of government delegations to Chad.
I just wonder when we are going to grow up in this country. Ug it has been fake news from BBC news or sharareporters most of the op here will believe.we cannot be negative to our government and expect positive things to happen to us.
That is why we remain like this.

musaajebor: in other words the presido could not resist the taming smile on ali modu sherrifs face

shidren what have u learnt from the story?

I learnt that "THEY ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER, +FG+CHAD+SHERIFF...

Well, it is unfortunate really. Talk about coming out to flex off for the Nigerian delegation. Guess he feels like an untouchable... The good thing here is, Nemesis might be slow, steady...but definitely CERTAIN! Let's see how events unfold in days to come.

Mekateka: APC fools are free to believe their propaganda stories about the president, but one thing I want the APC fools to know is that; GEJ will rule Nigeria till 2019. PDP voted him in 2011 and PDP are ever ready to vote for him again in 2015.

BROS U DULL

If the president knew about Modu Sheriff's presence in Chad & still went then its a case beyond stupidity at its peak, giving Sheriff's alleged Boko Haram's alliance history,which was the major basis of his meeting with the Chadian govt,but if he was'nt pre-informed by DSS,then that was a serious security blunder,given the current rival atmosphere btwn the two.But on a further note,Jona wuld've pronounced it a confidential closed door meeting that did'nt require 3rd parties like Amodu,& the Chadian govt wuld've seen to this & Amodu wuld'nt have had any options but 2 excuse himself.

Now I know why and how these vagabonds from chad always troop into Nigeria,this hediot called murderer sherif is a shareholder in their God forsaken jungle

kai this babe you are very very intelligent and beautiful,you are the one my mother said I should bring home to be the mother of her grandchildren,baby pls marry me

Someone should tell GEJ spokesmen to stop making ludicrous rebuttals, they make Nigeria a laughing stock among other nations if this is the best coming from the highest office PR. Most times silence will have serve them better. It has always been medicine after death for this presidency!

I think Ali Modu Sherrif was the sole facilitator and chief organizer of that security meeting. GEJ must have sent him on that errand which went south. There is no way on this earth that GEJ's protocol officers would have not been there well ahead of the presidents arrival. What if Chad is planning to assasinate our president and he just walked in with all his security and proctocol behind behind him instead of ahead. The knew, they have no lie to defend that. It insults Nigerian's collective intelligence that the precidency continue lie in this manner.

I just want to see the end to this incompetent fools in our precidency next year.

Maybe someone just deserves to be hanged

IMPORTANT DIGRESSION

[size=18pt]EXCLUSIVE: Real Reasons President Jonathan Fired NNPC GMD[/size]
September 12, 2014


Andrew Yakubu

The immediate trigger for the sudden sack of erstwhile Group Managing Director, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Andrew Yakubu, is becoming clearer more than a month after Mr. Yakubu and some other top officials of the state oil company were replaced.
PREMIUM TIMES can authoritatively reveal that Mr. Yakubu, who spent two years in office, had to go after the Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, accused him of insubordination over the appointment of a new Managing Director for the upstream subsidiary of the NNPC, the Nigerian Petroleum Development Company (NPDC).

Mr. Yakubu, who was appointed July 1, 2012, was the fourth GMD of NNPC in the about five-year reign of the minister.
This newspaper learnt that while the former NNPC boss made a case for an engineer with a sound technical background to be appointed for the company responsible for NNPC’s oil exploration and production operations, reliable presidency and industry sources say the minister wanted a lawyer she considered a loyalist.

Despite being a strategic arm of the corporation, the NPDC had remained without a substantive head for almost a year allegedly over the refusal of the NNPC management, led by Mr. Yakubu, to buckle under the Minister’s pressures.
Since coming on board as the GMD NNPC, Mr. Yakubu was said to have consistently resisted the proposal to appoint a non-technical person into the office, a development that constantly put him in the firing line as he crossed swords with Mrs. Alison-Madueke on several occasions.
Sources at the NNPC and the minister’s office, who spoke with PREMIUM TIMES on condition of anonymity for fear of being victimized, revealed that the appointment of the Managing Director for NPDC was one of the issues that always brought Mr. Yakubu in direct confrontation with the Minister.
“The face-off between the Minister and the GMD NNPC has been raging for a long time,” one of our sources said. “The NPDC issue was only one of several. In fact, the former GMD managed to remain in office that long because of the Vice President, Namadi Sambo, who is from the same geo-political zone with him and always stood up to his defence each time the Minister wanted his head.”
However, the last straw that led to the removal of Mr. Yakubu was the issue of appointment of the Managing Director of NPDC, this newspaper understands.
Our sources said the former NNPC GMD stood up to the Minister on the issue, which some NNPC Board members said generated serious tension for days, resulting in the movement of staff and visitors to the management floors of the NNPC Towers being restricted as the issues was deliberated upon.

The 10th and 11th floors of the A wing of the building houses the offices of the Minister and the GMD.
During the meeting, the Minister was said to have asked the former GMD to nominate candidates for the NPDC top job, ostensibly to create the impression that the NNPC was the initiator of the process that would culminate in the final appointment.
But Mr. Yakubu, our sources say, in line with his conviction that only a person with technical background was fit to be in charge of an important subsidiary such as NPDC, was said to have suggested two candidates, who did not include the lawyer the minister wanted.
A heated argument that ensued allegedly resulted in a stalemate, with the Minister accusing the former GMD of “gross insubordination taken too far”.
Coincidentally, a day after the tensed meeting, PREMIUM TIMES had published an exclusive report highlighting the minister’s lethargic management style of “micro-managing the entire petroleum industry as her personal estate using her powerful personal aides to carry out key policies, rather than designated officials”.

The minister, who was said to have used the media report as another confirmation of alleged insubordination by her subordinates, allegedly fingered Mr. Yakubu as the prime suspect and sponsor of the publication.
In anger, the minister was said to have reported Mr. Yakubu to the vice President before going to the President to demand his immediate sack.
A few hours later, Mr. Yakubu was fired and replaced by his kinsman, Joseph Dawha, who until his appointment was the acting GED, Exploration and Production of NNPC.

The President then immediately approved the appointment of Anthony Muoneke as Managing Director of NPDC.
Mr. Muoneke, said to be an oil and gas lawyer, was Mrs. Alison-Madueke favourite candidate opposed by Mr. Yakubu, who insisted that it would be counter productive to appoint a lawyer to run an oil and gas production company.
Prior to his appointment, Mr. Muoneke, who was called to the Nigerian Bar in 1985, was the Executive Director, Finance & Administration, Niger Delta Power Holding Company Limited, NDPHC.

But even before the minister and the sacked NNPC boss clashed over the appointment of a chief executive for the NPDC, the two officials had for long related with each other with suspicion.
To avoid direct dealings with the former NNPC GMD, the sources said the minister resorted to a management style that saw her using her powerful personal assistants and sidelining the top management of the corporation in implementing some top oil industry policy decisions.
For instance, the sources said the Group Executive Directors (GEDs) of some key subsidiaries of the NNPC were encouraged to undermine the NNPC GMD.

They listed some GEDs of NNPC subsidiaries, who routinely bypassed the chain of command to report directly to the Minister first before their parent management to include those in charge of Pipelines and Petroleum Marketing Company (PPMC), and Crude Oil Marketing Department.
Other officials bypassing the GMD include those in charge of refining and petrochemical, which supervises the operations of the country’s four refineries and petrochemical companies as well as heads of the Legal and Corporate Services Department, which is also in charge of the management of NNPC’s Board secretariat.

Although Mr. Yakubu’s face-off with the Minster had been on for a long time, the sources told PREMIUM TIMES that the sacked NNPC GMD became a marked man whose days were numbered early this year when the N10 billion private aircraft contract scandal blew open.
When the scandal broke, our sources said, the minister and her aides allegedly blamed it on the former NNPC GMD whom they suspected was behind the leakage of information to members of the House of Representatives.
In an attempt to halt the alleged leakage of contract details, the minister was said to have directed the then Secretary to the NNPC Board and Legal Adviser, Anthony Madichie, to take action to protect the confidentiality of the corporation’s official records and block leakers from gaining access.
When Mr. Madichie couldn’t deliver, the Minister reportedly recommended his immediate removal from office. He was replaced by Ikechukwu Oguine as Coordinator, Legal Services and Company Secretary of the corporation.
The Presidency did not offer any reason for Mr. Madichie’s removal in April, the second time members of the NNPC top management would be removed in a space of two months since March 2014, when the President appointed new GEDs.
Industry experts however alleged that the constant changes were part of a grand design by the administration to enable card-carrying politicians, rather than professionals, take over the NNPC Board as well as the corporation’s subsidiaries.

The minister and her aides declined to comment for this story.
Repeated calls to the minister’s known telephone line failed to connect.
Several calls to her Senior Special Assistant, Kevin Alonzo, were not responded to last week.
When similar calls were made to the Group General Manager Group Public Affairs of NNPC, Ohi Alegbe, he requested the reporter to send a text message.
He however did not reply the text message, as well as emails sent to him.

If you dont know, NOW YOU KNOW!
This is how they are ruining Nigeria by the day!

BTW: The Petroleum Minister is the Sister of the President's wife (or Mother of his children), as Patience has no child for him.
Now you know why she seems "untouchable" despite all her shenanigans!

Modu Sheriff travels with a of the Presidential Jets even before he officially defected to PDP. He is and has been closer to GEJ and his government than you will ever believe. He has unlimited access to the Aso Villa in Abuja.

Remember when Maiduguri Airport was closed for security reasons in June this year. The FG waved this closure off for Modu Shriff on 14th July and he landed in Maiduguri in one of the presidential jets.

It would be interesting to know what flight Modu Sheriff took to Chad and whether he was indeed a trusted advance party.

focus7: The story is for the fools pdp members and followers of Jonathan. This is after the president has denied ever being with Sheriff, I even wonder why he's denying the obvious when d whole world know about his romance with criminals. The new trend to dis is his involvements in oil bunkery, I have not seen anything like dat before where a president that suppose to be protecting resources is the one stealing it.

Ur brain is halved baked if u don't understand simple xplanation amodu sheriff was with the entourage that welcomed the president. Can the president change the entourage of the host NO. Was ruben abati lyiong when he said amodu sheriff did not follow the president NO so who is been decivied. U are the one deciving urself useless oloshi activist who thrives on propaganda.

[color=#006600][/color][quote author=enkay4love][/quote].

This denial doesn't add up. How are we expected to believe the Presidency wasn't informed by the security agencies, especially the DSS, that Ali Modu Sheriff was in Chad, assuming he wasn't on Jonathan's entourage? In the face of the attack of Boko Haram, the alleged sponsorship of same by Ali Modu Sheriff and the sect getting some foot "soldiers" in Chad, the Presidency says it didn't know Sheriff's whereabouts.
