NASS REFUSE TO PASS THE LAW TO ALLOW USE OF RECOVERD LOOT FOR NIGERIANS

Maiwada Dammallam Many people erroneously believe that Buhari is not fighting corruption; that none of the people arrested/detained/accused by the EFCC has been sentenced to prison.

Buhari wants to set up an anti-corruption court and the bill called the Special Criminal Courts Act has been submitted to the NASS (National Assembly) since last year, but they have refused to pass it into law.
The same thing is happening to the Whistle Blowers Protection Act meant to protect whistleblowers from injury, death, economic sabotage, and job termination.

The Senate told the government point blank that they will not pass the Anti-Money Laundering Act into law. The bill has been with the Senate since 2015.
If corruption is not tackled and the judiciary is not re-organized to tackle corruption, how will Nigeria leave the developing country status and become a DEVELOPED NATION?

Most of the funds recovered cannot be accessed until the cases are concluded at the Supreme Court. We are talking about N2 trillion potentially that the government cannot touch until final judgment at the Supreme Court. That is why passage of the Anti-corruption courts legislation is critical to accessing these funds because cases at the trial court level will be concluded more expeditiously.

Now this same NASS is asking for 2.3% of get this, ALL FEDERAL ALLOCATION, for "constituency project".
Didn't we embark on the wrong protest yesterday after all? Can we now see the true enemies of Nigeria?

There is a perception deficit. Many people cannot even hear what the administration is saying because a dangerous narrative is being sold to people that Buhari caused the recession (the recession which since 2014 Madam NOI, awa 1st rate economist, has warned us will happen)
If this perception deficit is not corrected, Buhari will not be able to get the support he needs to get his programs through, especially the ones that need enabling laws from the NASS.

I said it. Its only going to be re-looted. It will be reserved for future looting and some more money paid to recover them again. And the circle continues. Thats how countries built for administrative convenience of european colonial masters operate. They cant even use it for technological and scientific research grants. And tomorrow they want to answer gaint of africa. Gaint for what achievement? NON. Gaint of hungry 180mill. Peeps living on less than a dollar a day. With not up to a thousand elected looting elites. There was a courty. Proudly ipob
