How Jonathan Ended Farouk Lawan's Political Career For Good by samueloduoye(m): 1:53am On Oct 19, 2019 |
Until 2013, Farouk Lawan was a Northern politician to fear by Nigerian leaders. As at that time, he was in the House of Representatives, on behalf of a Kano constituency for the fourth term. And by then, he was like the Northern mole in the government against the then president, Goodluck Jonathan. However, the moment Jonathan realised this, Farouk was allegedly fed with his favourite meal – bribery, which put him in a corner he has never recovered from. Until now, he is still locked in the legal cage. Aside from billionaire, Femi Otedola testifying against Lawan that he demanded $620,000 as a bribe, a clip of video evidence was also all over the internet. Despite being in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), he could not escape Jonathan’s wrath.

Farouk lawal paid the price of integrity after he led the HOR "Integrity group" that saw to the resignation of Patricia Etteh against the wish of OBJ and the top PDP guys back then. He was so trusted, Tambuwal made him head the HOR committee that investigated GEJ fuel subsidy scandal. What really transpired between Otedola and him has not been revealed truthfully. 2 Likes |

GidiWoodsMan: He said he saw Father and you are asking if na Oyinbo? Na same thing una Dey talk na. What led to Otedola carrying out that sting and coming out publicly to say he bribed Farouk, we never still know until the matter died naturally 2 Likes |

GidiWoodsMan: What if he truly had the intention of reporting Otedola for bribery and Otedola outsmarted him?.. |

He used his hand to dig his grave. He is claiming what he is not, that is why righteous people should be careful because just one mistake is enough to ruin everything. 1 Like |

Farouk Lawan, until the bribe saga, has a very bright future in the Northern Nigeria politics. If were still relevant by now, and with such momentum, he could have been a presidential hopeful. Till he dies, he will continue to run that unfortunate day he stuffed Otedola's dollar in his cap. |

powerkey: I won't go down the filthy lane of tribalism with you. Lest you forget, farouk lawan is from Kano. Otedola companies, Zenon and Synopsis were clearly indicted in the subsidy scam. There was an evidence showing Lawan communicated with the chairman of the house committee on financial crimes and the then inspector General of police. Ever wondered why he hasn't being found guilty up till now after almost eight years. |
