MAMAJAMA:

speculation, presidents are under immunity and when they travel the use diplomatic passport, which gives them privilege to lots of things.

And ur point is?

My point is you can not search a presidential jet, go and ask any immigration officials or custom officials. that is one of the privileged they enjoy

The question should be,where on earth did he get that money from as a goverment official?This so called goverment is just joking with you and i destiny,i wonder how long we will keep accepting things the way it is,left to me,they all deserve to be shot.We need a new system with diffrent mentality and approach,some times i watch them on BEN TV in senate and their socalled house of assembly and just looking at their yam heads,you can visible see they have no plan for the country.

India apologises over arrest of Nigerian Military Attache

By Kingsley Omonobi
Posted to the Web: Monday, May 28, 2007

ABUJA—Indications emerged in Abuja weekend that the Indian government has apologised to Nigeria over the arrest last week, of Navy Captain G. A. Ojedokun, the Nigerian Military Attache to the Nigerian High Commission in that country.

The apology according to sources, was verbally diclosed to the Nigerian High Commissioner in India by the Indian authorities following investigations which cleared the naval officer of any ulterior motive when the money was found on him.

The source noted that though the apology has been communicated Nigerian Authorities here at home, an official letter to that effect is expected to be recieved before the end of this week from the Indian authorities.


Recall that Military authorities had on Wednesday, last week, clarified that the $2. 27 million found in possession of the Nigerian Military attachéé in India, for which he was arrested by the Indian security agencies, was money duly approved by the Ministry of Defence for certain projects earmarked for the Nigerian High Commission in that country.

A senior officer who spoke to Vanguard under condition of anonymity had disclosed that the money was part of an approval released for the project after the sanction of the Defence Ministry pointing out that the project was initially meant to be undertaken by the former Defence Adviser, also a Navy Captain, who is currently attending the National Institute for Policy and strategic Studies.

“Following the appointment of the new Defence Adviser, the cost of the project was reviewed downwards,” the officer said adding that “from our discussions with the DA and investigations, we discovered that the officer was trying to return the money which is the balance of the original sum that was approved to the country.”

Wow these guys keep playing with our intelligence, so money approved for a project about $2.27 million is carried in CASH by 1 man. Let's get serious!

In this age of telegraphic money transfer,a goverment official is carrying such amount of money in cash without any form of official declaration ,even if it was to be used to save obasanjo's life.What a gimmick.Africa is backward today because we have bunch of criminals as leader,they don't know for one what it takes to be a leader,they just think it is all about grabbing the socalled national cake,a vicious circle of road to nowhere.
