I am sure there is a reason they declined. There might be clauses in the requirements for membership that are not in our national interest or that might be detrimental to our national security. We need more information on what the terms of joining these organs are before we start screaming blue murder.


Exactly what happened..
Re: Nigerian Officials Snub Us-led Anti-corruption Groups by Nobody: 7:28pm On Apr 01, 2016
The reason for the snub is because the approach used by the current administration is obsolete and selective. For a proper anti graft war, there is need for synergetic techniques and machineries. However, if this techniques are employed the Dullard and his many political appointee nyash will be opened.

P. Buhari should as a matter of commitment to rid us of corruption and join the initiative.
Since we joined the alliance against terror initiated by Saudi arabia-boko haram still has pockets of insurgency but the rewards will come later through intelligence sharing,extradition and arms.
I see similar analogy to this financial and anti corruption alliance-the rewards may not be immediate but gradually the impact will tell.

I really love your objective points,but let me be quick to point this out that dealing with the Americans you have to digest every detail before pending your signature,america is a typical example of this Yoruba proverb; a fun ni ni fila gba ori lowo e ni meaning ,americans can give you cap and cut off your head.

I am sure you understand the context of my post to mean that most of ICC's prosecution are African leaders. You only want to call me out for saying ONLY African leaders. Fine, you win. But then, I stand with my government for refusing to join this OGP. I am particularly not impressed that the roll call of existing members are mostly African countries. Why are the European countries not part of it?

When Jonathan refused to sign the trade agreement with EU, we all applauded him for the decision. For me, it's all about Nigeria's interest and nothing else. Nothing is personal here.

It's not a switch button you flip to end corruption, it's meant to be a part of a large anticorruption mechanism, criminals operate even in the US, is that a valid reason not to have law enforcement agencies anymore?

The statement from premiumtimes that Jonathan never declared his assets is false.

In fact, he did it better, far above the nonsense Buhari narrated (instead of comprehensive declaration) through his media assistant. If this wasn't detail enough, then forget it?

Of course I don't expect a Nigerian president to join a group that would expose his corrupt practices. GEJ refused to join and now Buhari has refused to join too. I'm not surprised.
Buhari is only pretending to be fighting corruption.
If it is about joining an Islamic group, he will quickly join without consultation.

As simple as that.

You are right. Corruption cannot be eradicated but it can be controlled. Even in America, there are corrupt public and private officials. The only difference is, they have a system in place to prevent it if possible, investigate it, prosecute and sentence such individual. In Nigeria, corruption is out of control. The country is drowning in it.

"Members of OGP grew from six founding countries to 69 in less than five years, they include Ghana and Liberia in West Africa, as well as Kenya, Malawi, South Africa, Tanzania and Tunisia. PIF members include Burkina Faso, Kenya, Mauritius, Liberia, Niger, and Senegal".

Is the OGP meant for African countries alone?
We should be careful about joining organisations that are similar to International criminal court that prosecutes only African leaders.

They have been trying for years to put all African countries under one umbrella so they can sieze control will their western stooge to fulfil European Neo-colonialist Imperial Agenda on the continent. OAU, PAN-AFRICA, AAU, ICC, AU, etc they have failed. They offer PROSPERITY, GROWTH, EDUCATION, FOOD, SAVING US, KILLING OUR LEADERS UNDER THE SCAM OF HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS. BUHARI LEFT THE GROUPS.

They have to find a way to depopulate us first. Apparently African leaders were the only ones who refused to poison their people, so they must come up with a depopulation plan for Africa specifically. We are waiting.

"They were roundly condemned by the Jonathan administration for acceding to the clause on asset declaration. President Goodluck Jonathan refused to declare his assets throughout his stay in office". Hmmm stealing is not corruption


"The U.S. delegation to this year’s BNC obviously expected that their Nigerian counterparts would have no objection to joining the two anti-corruption initiatives since President Buhari and Vice-President Osinbajo have already declared their assets". Transparency the best way.

They have the right to decide what is good for our nation
So joining anti corruption organisation not good for us , but joining sunni led terror group along with Saudi Arabia is good for us right ? Just kwantinu angry angry

But you have no issues when Buhari joined saudi arabia led sunni terror group , all in the name of fighting terrorism , keep deceiving yourself .
The truth here is that their style of fighting corruption will be more inclusive and that will expose people buhari considers saints in his government and even buhari himself, so as i said keep deceiving yourself .
The american congress man who did shady deals with atiku abubakar is in prison in the US while abubakar is free and celebrated man in Nigeria , are you getting my drift ? Buhari knows what he is trying to avoid shikena .

Moreover on further readings on these alliances- they are not prosecutorial. More like commonwealth- advice,technical support, openess and transparency.
Despite being member of commonwealth under Abacha- nobody in the regime was tried for murdering saro wiwa. Travel bans and restrictions were as far as sanctions came to.

Serbians were the perpetrators; Bosnians were the victims. Don't mind these Africans keeping score. It is an extension of how they keep ethnic score counts here on anything - typical of backward people
