Buhari Implicated In US Bribery Scandal. US Senator Sentenced To 13 Years by coolscott(m): 12:23pm On Jan 12, 2016
[size=13pt]I was a bit surprised when I viewed the sentencing of a US senator (William Jefferson) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_J._Jefferson implicated in a bribery scandal in which his agreement to bribe our then vice president became revealed. You can still find the sentencing file hosted on the US Department of Justice's site.

What was really surprising was the citing of exhibits 36-87 revealing wire transfers from a Nigerian account in the name of Aisha Buhari to the account of ANJ Group LLC, identifying the American senator as the beneficiary.

This lends credit to the allegations of missing $2.8billion dollars under Buhari's watch in 1983

It also I believe explains why Buhari found it okay to serve under the Abacha administration and eventually say after Abacha passed away, that "Abacha never stole".

It is his public declaration that Abacha never stole combined with the fact that he served under Abacha that raised serious red flags in my mind about him. Why would anyone (especially one who served under Abacha) make such a declaration? It stands to reason that the only reason he would say that is that he had very strong reasons for which he would want us to believe that statement.
And I make bold to say that those reasons are almost certainly self-protective.

As I write this, it occurs to me that the man (Buhari) does not really respect Nigerians at all. Or else how could he have declared such a feeble lie, expecting anyone to believe it?

Anyway, this is the link to the US Department of Justice-hosted sentencing implicating Aisha Buhari in the Criminal Fraud case of William Jefferson, now serving his term in the US:

When you fight corruption, it fights back. NOI said this, Buhari is realising it.

It's good to know that Buhari was a yam roaster, roasting yams for his dear wife to chop.

Anyway, this event is pre-Jonathan era and is technically barred from investigation by our anti-corruption agencies.

While I have been able to confirm that Dumebi Kachikwu is a brother to Ibe Kachikwu, can you confirm to me that the Aisha Buhari referred to is wife of Muhammadu Buhari? And why should Ibe answer questions for an act committed by Dumebi?

We have to know whether Ibe used Dumebi as a front or otherwise. Atiku also has a case to answer in the Jefferson case. The Aisha Buhari is the only Aisha Buhari that we have in Nigeria. Do you know any other Aisha Buhari?

Before election, we saw this crap as they tried to use it to taint Baba's image.

After the election, they brought it forward again.

When the corruption fight started yielding fruits, they brought it up.

Now, they are still bringing it up.

Na una go tire. cheesy

Useless Ekpas. Instead of them joining their brothers to protest using banners in the streets of Aba, they come on the forum spreading very dull stories that we've read over a million times.

Quite frankly, I don't. But I'll be shocked if there's only one Aisha Buhari in the country. I would think that Aisha and Buhari are fairly common names in the north? I guess I am wrong. My bad!

[size=13pt]Well, I think the question to ask is how many Aisha Buharis are...

i) Within the corridors of Nigerian power,
ii) Connected with ruling class figures like Atiku and
iii) Have any connection with Mr. Kachikwu

The triangle of connections (which includes the appointment of the elder brother of Dumebi Kachikwu as NNPC boss by Buhari) firmly places Aisha Buhari head and shoulders above every other possible.
