An initial warning before Saraki became
Senate President.
Before You Vote Saraki As The Senate
President
“Before Bukola Saraki is Coronated as
Senate President of the 8th National Assembly": A word of Caution to Career
Politicians in the Nigerian Senate... By
Dr. Abdullahi Imam Abdullahi, a clinical
psychologist from Ilorin, Kwara
state....JUNE 4, 2015.
Bukola Saraki has been in the news lately. The fellow I understand wants to
be the next President of the Senate and
the Chairman of the National Assembly.
As a Nigerian and a Senator, he has the
right to vie for the office in question. His
colleagues in the Senate however have a moral duty to reject him unless of
course they are as corrupt and criminally
inclined as he is.
Before we go further, I must introduce
myself. My names are Abdullahi Imam
Abdullahi, a clinical psychologist and a scion of the Imam Fulanis of Ilorin
Emirate, Kwara state. I have witnessed
first hand Bukola’s maladministration in
my state. The tales are too many. I will
list just a few. Before I do that, I will also
make a detour to write about Bukola’s sordid past long before he became
Governor of Kwara state – a gift his
daddy gave him before he clocked 41 in
2003. It will become apparent in a little
while that Bukola is not cut from any
moral fiber. Bukola Saraki and his immediate
younger sister, Gbemisola Saraki have
always lived on daddy’s dime. In the mid
1990s, Bukola Saraki and his sister were
regular visitors to Criminal Investigation
Department at Panti, Yaba, Lagos, over allegations of theft leveled against the
two by the Nigerian government under
General Sani Abacha. It is a blatant lie
by Bukola to claim that former President
Goodluck Jonathan set the EFCC after
him because he moved a motion on fuel subsidy – Bukola was only trying to be
clever by half. We shall come to that
later. It was at CID Panti that Bukola
Saraki met one of his later sidekicks,
Assistant Commissioner of Police, Lanre
Jimoh (popularly called Lanre Olopa). ACP Lanre Jimoh was a junior officer
during this period and he went out of his
way because of his Ilorin kinship to
assist Bukola Saraki maneuver the
Nigerian police muddle. I am not aware
that the case was ever closed. It was more like it was hushed like everything
else in Bukola Saraki’s life. In the mid
1990s when this happened, was Abacha
also witch hunting Bukola Saraki?
This is what actually happened from our
findings at the Kwara Restoration Project. After Bukola Saraki spent
countless years trying to be a medical
doctor in England, he finally managed to
pass the medical exams in 1988. This,
after spending a decade in British
higher education in the pursuit of a medical degree. In 1989, Bukola did his
House job as a medical officer at one of
the hospitals in England and moved
back to Nigeria to join Société Générale
Bank in 1990 as the Vice Chairman
representing his father’s interest. Bukola continued what he knows how to
do best – spending other peoples’
money. He didn’t care that there were
many other stakeholders at Société
Générale Bank – Shareholders,
Employees and Customers, he dipped his hands into the Bank’s purse
voraciously and his little sister
Gbemisola partook in the bazaar. When
Abacha took over, he was intent on
punishing the bank robbers of the day,
Bukola Saraki was one of them and thus Bukola became a regular visitor to CID,
Panti, Yaba, Lagos.
Abacha’s death saved Bukola from
going to jail but Société Générale could
not be rescued, when the late Admiral
Muhammad Lawal, former Governor of Kwara state, fell out with Dr. Olusola
Saraki, the Sarakis liquidated Societe
Generale to finance Bukola’s
governorship campaign. Since then,
Société Générale Bank, Nigeria Limited
became history until recently when Bukola in cahoots with some others
invested in Heritage Bank through
proxies.
When Société Générale became
insolvent, a lot of hardworking Nigerian
families lost their entire savings and many lost their lives in the process. As a
clinical psychologist I know that when
we talk about money, we ought to go
beyond the paper and look underneath
to see the men and women whose lives
depend on it. Bukola Saraki and his family stole depositors’ money and in
the process destroyed millions of lives in
the process. These lives are not mere
statistics, they are someone’s son and
daughter, brother, sister, aunt, uncle,
father, mother, mother in law, father in law etc. and the most prominent
amongst these individuals is Austin Jay
Jay Okocha who lost a considerable
amount of money in Société Générale.
Later, as Governor of Kwara state,
Bukola sought to bribe Jay Jay Okocha with some type of arrangement at the
Kwara Football Academy which he
established with Kwara state money but
later converted into a private concern.
There is more to that deal than the
scope of this paper will allow. When Bukola became Kwara state
Governor, he continued in his
characteristic corrupt ways. He assumed
that the Kwara treasury was an
extension of Société Générale and
daddy’s magnanimity. He dips his hand into the Kwara treasury at will and
disregards government due process.
Those who try to stand up against his
impunity were dealt with mercilessly. Dr.
Hezekiah Bamidele Oyedepo was one
of those individuals. After the gentleman couldn’t stomach Bukola’s
excesses any longer, he transferred his
services to the Federal Government
under President Olusegun Obasanjo as
a Director in the Federal Ministry of
Water Resources. There are countless others who are not so fortunate.
A case in point was when Bukola Saraki,
drunk on power slapped Alhaji Saka
Isemin, a commissioner under his
administration for being more loyal to
Bukola Saraki’s own father than to Bukola.
Bukola’s eight years reign as Governor
of Kwara state was typified by stealing
and the conversion of state properties
into his own using cronies such as
Kamaldeen Ajibade, the former Kwara state Attorney General and one non
Kwara, Yomi Ogunsola. These two
individuals more than others within
Bukola’s corrupt inner cycle hold many
of Kwara’s converted assets.
I will list some of them here; Kwara Cashew Company, Kwara Tourist
Kitchen, Patigi Regatta Motel, Kwara
Advanced Diagnostic Centre (Now
renamed Harmony Advanced Diagnostic
Centre), the Shonga Farms was largely
financed by Kwara under a very shadowy arrangement. The Kwara mall
and countless other state properties
were converted by Bukola Saraki.
Now, some of us at the Kwara
Restoration Project are not averse to
entrepreneurship. In fact, we welcome it. What we are averse to is stealing of
government properties and converting
same into personal estates. By all
means, if Bukola Saraki makes his own
money and invests such in Kwara state,
we welcome it and we perhaps may even celebrate it. But in this case, we
have incontrovertible evidence of
Bukola’s daylight robbery of Kwara
state. We were fortunate through our
contacts at the corporate affairs
commission to get certified copies of how these companies were transferred
to the two cronies earlier mentioned.
We took it upon ourselves to hand these
documents to our senior ulamas (Islamic
scholars) in Ilorin to act on and call
Bukola to order but they sat on it. During the just concluded elections, the
opposition PDP got the documents from
us and they sought to publish same in
the Punch Newspapers but the Punch
Editor told them that Bukola had already
got a court to give him a spurious injunction restraining all Nigerian
media, print, broadcast, etc against
publishing any negative article on his
person even if they are true. On this
issue of converted Kwara state assets,
anyone that doubts the veracity of my claims should please make an
independent verification from the CAC
in Abuja.
Bukola Saraki has also been linked with
Arson in Kwara state. Shortly after
Bukola left office as Governor of Kwara state and his personality conflict with
former President Goodluck Jonathan is
simmering over Jonathan’s refusal to
honour his side of the bargain for
Saraki’s assistance during Jonathan’s
2011 election as President; Bukola panicked when the EFCC began to go
over the Kwara state financials between
2003 and 2011. Bukola in cahoots with
some of his foot soldiers like Otunba
Tunde Morakinyo organized some cult
boys to burn the computer office of the Kwara state Ministry of Finance. The
cultists who carried out this operation
did not cart away anything besides
burning down the documents. It is
noteworthy that they went with a
generator to perpetrate their criminal act. One security guard who was not in
the know of things and tried to resist
was shot dead. The police
commissioner at the time, an elderly
gentleman from the eastern part of
Nigeria was in the know and perhaps a few others.
It is also important to point out that the
heroic security guard that was killed
crossed over to the state police
command that is directly opposite the
scene of the crime and was refused help before taking matters into his own
hands. May his soul rest in peace with
his Maker. The state police command is
literally opposite the Kwara State
Ministry of Finance and yet the cultist
stayed for over one hour burning and destroying documents in the middle of
the night with no official state power
confronting them. The police
commissioner who went along with this
nefarious act was later shot dead by
hired assassins on his way to his village during the Christmas of 2012. I do not
know whether Bukola was involved but
the coincidence was too ominous.
When Bukola Saraki left office
physically in 2011 as Kwara Governor,
he made sure to install a placeholder in his stead thus guaranteeing him ruling
by proxy. Bukola is the only Nigerian
politician who is serving an
unconstitutional fourth term because
AbdulFatah Ahmed is tied to his apron
strings and cannot make any independent decision on his own.
Directors and permanent secretaries in
the Kwara state civil service have been
known to route memos to Bukola behind
the back of the placeholder AbdulFatah
Ahmed. This is a feat that even his godfather, former President Olusegun
Obasanjo could not pull off.
In essence therefore, distinguished
Senators of the 8th National Assembly,
you are advised to stay clear from
coronating Bukola Saraki as your Senate President. He does not typify
any decent, democratic values. He is
greedy, corrupt, self absorbed, violent,
autocratic and does not have regard for
the basic tenets of African culture and
tradition in the way he treats those older than him with disrespect until lately.
The only reason you will elect Bukola
Saraki as your President is only if he is
just like you men and women who
populate the Senate chamber, in which
case, you would have found a perfect replica of yourselves.
