Jokers of all time !

when will this govt and police be ever serious ?

Alot of internal problems have not been attened to yet.

the mass killing by the police and the govt.

Weak up !!! leaders of this nation

ohisng:

Right BUT why did ribadu NOT appear before the court? That he fought (?) corruption, does that now make him to be above the law?

tokunegiye:

arrest for what?

Afam:

The irony of this is that while a lot of serious pressing problems confront us daily it is an issue of non declaration of assets not looting or embezzling of public funds that is being taken to the front burner.

nethacker:

Non declaration of assets b4 n after office.imagine!!!! I dnt knw wen that one become a crime oooo . meanwhile,most of them did nt declare anything
Nonsense!!

OKEYCHIVIV:

Is there no case for Odili and Ibori to answer?,OBJ nko?
Anything worth doing is worth doing well-selective justice is not
what we want;though Ribadu is guilty of that too.

I believe that El Rufai wrote a letter about returning to Nigeria. Why is he still outside. Some jobless Diasporans are saying that other people should be arrested first. As an armed robber, I should tell the police to arrest other robbers first?

This celebrity show will not get them anywhere. If they are innocent, they should go and prove it in the court.Did Ribadu ever give anybody the chance to prove his innocence. He was usin Gestapo tactics when he had the power. El Rufai was demolishing peoples' houses without regards to the courts.

when Ribadu was steering the EFCC,the name EFCC sent shivers down criminals' spines.
   now i sometimes forget the name of the present EFCC chairman.

The irony of this is that while a lot of serious pressing problems confront us daily it is an issue of non declaration of assets not looting or embezzling of public funds that is being taken to the front burner.

I hate it when people say this. This is an insult to all Nigerians.

The useless Nigerian Police and their supporters (mostly corrupt and ignorant people) think InterPol is in the dark as to what is happening in Nigeria? I will make a BIG bet that Ribadu WILL NOT be arrested by InterPol! They are not dummies who do things without using their brain and looking at hard evidence!

Pray, do Nigerian Police of today and most Nigerians who live in Nigeria ever seen what a Police Department of a State can do? Heck, did I say State? No, just the Police Service of a big city? Gosh, where do I begin to break it down for you? I have seen a police service so efficient, the records of everything and everyone is archived back to the 19th century and is available in less than a minute if they needed to check it! Now, you think InterPol will waste his time on Nigeria like they are so dead and have not been paying attention to everything? The intelligence gathering when Nigeria and his security forces are sleeping on duty is forever on and a dossier on the idiots making this request is already available for printing! What a loser and shameful country without sense!

Depilot:

So, because we have bad leaders in Nigeria we all should be running out of the country whenever our actions are questioned?
Way to go, people.

We shall get there as soon as we are all willing to put our sensitive feelings aside and concentrate on identifying what is right and what is wrong.
I hate to state that what we are reading on this topic is exactly how our leaders view things in Abuja; and this is why nothing is done or will ever be done.

Instead of all of us to pay more attention to what David has done wrong and how it could be prevented in future, we are all busy defending David just because John who happens to be challenging David's illegal actions is also a bad leader. And this how it goes in Abuja today.
Nobody has the wisdom and courage (both here and in Abuja) to say fuc k David and fuc k John, this country belongs to us and we are ready to make things right.

It is very sad.

Depilot:


I think together when we become smarter and mature enough to condemn all these people: from AGF to Ibori, from Ribadu to El-rufai, from Obasanjo to IBB, from Odeli to Tinubu, from Akala to Kalu and so on; Our country, Nigeria will be rescued from the blood suckers.

chidichris:

@topic,
stupidity wearing the uniform of wiseness has taken over nigeria and our grammatical ability has become the basis to rate our abilities as a pupil hence nigerians have left the objects for shadows.
ribadu and everyother self acclaimed servant of nigeria both past and present must be ready to account for their stewardship because nigeria is not a private company of a particular group.

[b]We are so sentimental in our perceptions that we have lost all objective judgement. That is why many ignorantly celebrate Ribadu. What I learnt from his fight against corruption is that you can keep stealing public funds, provided you remain loyal to the powers that be. This is the man many ignorantly celebrate as the anti-corruption czar. We are very eagar for a change. Corruption has done us. Anyone who therefore packages himself as an anti-corruption fighter is received with warm arms. Ibori lost his immunity on 29th May, 1999 when he ceased to be the Governor of Delta State. Why did Ribadu wait till December 2007 before he arrested him? Ribadu was playing politics and scheming. It was when he lost out that he chose to move against Ibori. Imagine him receiving petitions on corruption against two individuals and investigating and prosecuting one while leaving the other one because the latter one is loyal to the powers that be. Is this how to fight corruption? Think, Nigerians, think. What we need is a system and structure manned by a courageous and uncompromising person who will do the work without fear or favour, not in the mould of Ribadu the ambitious politician. What goes round comes around. He should come home and answer to the charges prefered against him. All these comments of sentiment will take us no where![/b]

If we continue to allow our sensitive feelings to control our views on things in Nigeria, this great nation will never move forward.

Nobody is above the law, Ribadu and El-rufai should return home as soon as possible to defend themselves.

Running or hidding doesn't speak well of these 2 individuals and definitely sends wrong message to the youngstars (the future of this country).
Akingbola, one of the CEO of the troubled bank has already followed the same step. And I'm sure that many are also waiting to do the same as soon as their illegal actions are challenged. How long are we willing to stand and allow our country to continue to crumble?

If you love this country, you will encourage Ribadu and El-rufair to return right away, present their cases and make their enemies look foolish.

As a great citizen, it is simply the right thing to do.
