Let us all give a round of applause to Mr. Ben
Murray-Bruce, Senator-Elect of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria an founding Chairman of the
Silverbird Group. I have read his tweets and
watched his speech. I must say it was heart
warming to begin to see Nigerian public figures
speak out on the real issues plaguing the country.
That being said, and while we agree and applaud
Mr Murray-Bruce, we must be very weary, lest we
take this messenger as an epitome of the
message he preaches. Who is Mr. Bruce? Well, I
have known Mr. Bruce for over 20 years now. I
am not close to him, but I know him loosely.
This man managed NTA for 8 years. NTA was
basically ran to the ground during this time. Mr.
Murray was never wealthy before NTA. He lived in
a modest house in Lagos. We all know that it
was after he left NTA that he became rich despite
his salary as DG being N200,000 per month on
average while he ran the institution. He then went
to establish the Silverbird group which has been
fairly successful. I am not against being rich and
successful. However, I am against those who
steal public money and invest it in the businesses
to make it look like they are wealthy from the
business, and then turn around and say Nigerians
public officials are corrupt. When your son is in
the safety of LA playing around with all sorts of
Los Angeles women. That is certainly not
acceptable!
He received part payment for a 33billion naira
contract from Akwa Ibom without executing the
job, not even a land excavation!
Silverbird group received nothing less than $20
million from GEJ during the campaign. Our tax
money went to this man called Murray-Bruce.
Well congrats to him on his election. But Mr.
Bruce we are not buying it. Only gullible Nigerians
will buy it.
In the meantime, enjoy views of his son “playing”
in his $5million mansion in Los Angeles!

Cramjones didn't have to apologise for the beautiful. piece of work.

I sincerely apologize for the post about Ben Murray
Bruce. Let us all rally around and support his efforts
in speaking out against corruption. I even had more
fun as a young guy when I was his son's age. I
apologize first to the Murray-Bruce family and to all
Nigerians who felt hurt by my assertions. It was
grossly inaccurate, and I take full responsibility for
the misrepresentation. I am not against those who
speak out against thieves. We must all rally round to
get this menace out of our country.
God Bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

These days so many things are forged on Nairaland. Even if say that how does that affect the current political discourse?

What are you implying, that you never wrote the above or what? I took a screen capture of you being lambasted and berated for revealing your worth.

kodded:
I did
It was about two phone calls he received blah blah blah
But that doesn't mean his allegations was correct.....he didn't have a proper evidence to back his claim neither did he provide a news link(source) for reference purpose

cleatoris:

The lack of evidence does not overule the effect of commonsense and rationality in accounting for people's deeds.

A former staff of BMB also opened a thread to corroborate Cramjones' submission. Talk of reference.

kodded:
in a sane world cramjones could be in jail for accusing a senator elect for stealing huge sum of money without backing his claim with proper evidence...........hope you that

cleatoris:

In a sane world, persons like Ben Bruce will not be rewarded with a sit in the Senate. But everything goes in Nigeria.
