Wetin concern me with Sagay?

walemoney007:
i concur bro,let him ignore them...foolish members

sarrki:
The house of criminals don't have the integrity to invite him

They lack that moral grounds

Gej is far far better than them

hinwazaka:
No, i totally disagree. The house of representatives is a representation of the people. Irrespective of the various scandals and shenanigans that has bogged down the senate, they are still the voice of the people. And the people say that Jonathan has a case to answer. So jonathan should act like a statesman and go to the house to answer to the people

The proposed summons of Jonathan is sequel to a report which alleged that he probably received as much as $200 million to approve the controversial $1.3 billion sale of OPL 245 oil field

The claim that Jonathan probably received as much as $200 million in the deal was also repeated by the Russian in a follow-up interview with Italian prosecutors, led by Fabio De Pasquale in Milan.

“I said that if it’s true, that he paid, he had to pay 400 million, I assume that at least 200 went to Goodluck (Jonathan).”

“I heard from Chief (Etete), he claims that he had to pay 400 million, so, if this is true, if he paid 400 million, then most probably the President, as the biggest boss, took at least the half of it,” documents prepared by Italian prosecutors quoted

Who is Prof Sagay

TonyeBarcanista:
By TonyeBarcanista



Without saying much, I consider the invitation extended to former President Goodluck Jonathan to appear before a ad-hoc Committee on Malibu Oil Scandal as reckless, irresponsible, unfortunate and insult on both our collective responsibility and the person of Jonathan.

I am no fan of the former President, my position is premise on the fact that the House lack the moral right to invite the former President or any other person to investigate any allegation of corruption.

This is a House that suspended one of it's members and co-budget "padder" for summoning the courage to expose their fraud with respect to the 2016 budget. This is a House that has so many corruption case hanging on them without taking any holistic action to address them. They are morally bankrupt and lack any legitimacy of a sincere umpire. He that is to equity must come with clean hands.

If they have anything against anybody they should go to a court of competent jurisdiction through the office of Attorney-Genedal or any of the anti-graft agencies. The National Assembly is not a court and they will never be one.

Beside, no former leader or deputy of this country have been summoned or invited by the National Assembly at any time since the amalgamation in 1914 and despite the so many corruption scandals that we have seen in this country. Jonathan or even Buhari(when he leaves office) should not be the first.

Dem go soon invite you sef! Keep wailing!

realborn:
I completely disagree with the reasons you have stated.

From your posit, the Police also has no reason to enforce the law nor arrest anyone because the general disposition is that most of the officers are corrupt.

The courts will also have no business addressing and deciding cases because there are alleged cases of graft.

Yes the House of Reps may not be a court, however, it has a responsibility within the tenets of the constitution to carry out its obligations accordingly. Last time I checked, other than taking disciplinary actions against its own members (perhaps right or wrong), the HoR has not convicted anyone.

The fact that no ex-President has been summoned does not imply that it is appropriate if pertinent.

If Mr Jonathan is clean, he should graciously honor any invitation extended to him. This is the most reasonable thing to do.

We can't aspire to be leaders and openly promote impunity.

Stay objective Tonye. It is the only surefire way to excel in life.

My 2 cents!

TheShopKeeper:
If the House of Rep summons GEJ, they should do the same to OBJ to explain about the money spent for power projects during his time.

slivertongue:
calm down Tonye.
Even if the house of CADS invites him it is incumbent on him to honour it or send a representative. will never have Saints as leaders, we will have some good, bad and ugly

walemoney007:
i concur bro,let him ignore them...foolish members
let them first summon abdulsalam,an army general and ask him how he got his wealth,how can an army general be as rich as abdulsalam,they should not also forget T.Y danjuma,tinubu etc
tinubu should also be summoned and ask how he got his wealth

yeye dey smell

Eazybay:



Same creatures who said Magu can carry on without confirmation and Hameed Ali can go ahead without d Senate. I mean same ppl who said we should scrap, UnCloth, collapse and disband NASS would soon congregate to oppose dis opinion and hail d legislators as corruption fighters

TonyeBarcanista:
They don't have the moral legitimacy
