Farida Waziri Attacked In New York by temmytanny(m): 3:50pm On Oct 26, 2009
THANKS GOD THEM NO BREAK HER HEAD


Members of the Nigerian Democratic Liberty Forum (NDLF) in New York last Friday ensured that Farida Waziri, Executive Chairperson of Nigeria’s Economic and Financial Crimes Commission left the venue of her speaking engagement via the back door.

Farida was at the Upper East Side offices of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) to talk about corruption in Nigeria. But the NDLF was not buying the ruse that she is qualified to talk about fighting graft. Their presence, in the end, saw the former policewoman fleeing into the Friday afternoon traffic.

As soon as the protesters unveiled their placards and began to lift their voices, the CFR security hurriedly called the New York Police. Upon their arrival, the police requested that the protesters move across the street. That decreased the protest’s visibility, but not the protester’s impact or their message.

Our reporter noted that long after Waziri was scheduled to have departed CFR’s Harold Pratt House offices at 1: 30 PM, it was obvious that she and her entourage were holed up inside the building, afraid to come face to face with the protesters. At 2 :00 PM, she hurriedly exited the building through a back door, and was swiftly smuggled off in a waiting car belonging to the Nigerian Consulate in New York.

The protesters did their best to mob the car, waiving their posters and angry presence was duly noticed. Indeed it was, and the car carrying Farida quickly sped off around the corner through a red light.

I insist it is not easy or will you do a better job if you were given the opportunity?

This ain't about me being able too to do a better job. This is about her being useless and therefore should step down. The next time she is in the uk,I will be amongst the band of protestors too.

BTW, if you still want to know if i'll do better job,let's put it this way,I wouldn't do a worse job than what she is currently doing now.
