This question must be answered considering information that has recently come to light about him, as well as the activities of OAM4J, a Nairaland moderator who seems to be working for him and others at various levels of government. READ ON:

Olusegun Olutoyin Aganga, the former finance minister, recently screened by the senate for another ministerial nomination, apparently broke the bank to get his nomination through the senate yesterday. It was reported that he was throwing money around like water on Monday night amongst the senators to make sure he would get an easy time, and questions would not be asked about his state of origin.

He was born in 1955 at Iyin Ekiti, in Irepodun LGA of Ekiti State, attended Iyin Ekiti Elementary School and attended Christ School Ado Ekiti for his secondary education, and then off to University of Ibadan, from there to Oxford.

This man never lived in Lagos for any extended period of time, and only spent his holidays there. Never schooled in Lagos and was yet appointed as the minister for Lagos State, even though his parents are from Sabongida-Ora in Edo State, and his own state of indigeneship is Ekiti.

How then did he get nominated? That is a question GEJ will have to answer, considering that he has now violated Section 147(3) of the Constitution. That means he can now be impeached by a Northern dominated house, if not today, at any time they choose.

It was interesting to observe the close interaction between a PDP-nominated minister and Mrs. Oluremi Tinubu, who is also of Edo origin, but representing Lagos Central at the Senate, before and after Aganga's screening.

Immediately after he was screened, Aganga headed to Lagos, where he was met at the airport by Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who took him to see the Oba of Lagos, to tidy up the indigeneship issue and therefore dig Aganga further into a hole of lies and perjury from which he will never be able to get out.

Instead of working for the interest of Nigerians as Finance Minister, this man was busy lining his pocket, as well as those of his cronies in the Lagos State PDP, Setonji Koshoedo and Olatunji Shelle. With regard to Shelle, it was good company, since he was forced to resign from the Nigerian Navy for cable theft. Shelle and Koshoedo collected contracts through Aganga from a couple of ministries, ostensibly to help them fund the PDP in Lagos State. The party never saw the money.

Funny enough, just last week, Shelle, himself from Republic of Benin, was arguing that Aganga, not being a Lagosian, could not represent Lagos State as a minister. It was just a shakedown. As soon as Aganga paid up, they organised a meeting at the party secretariat in Ikeja on Monday, where they endorsed Aganga's nomination.

Aganga should be watched very closely. He is not trustworthy, and his usurpation of the rights of Lagosians by hiding his state of origin says he is capable of anything, just to get what he wants. He is desperate to become a minister, and we hope GEJ wakes up from his slumber quickly enough to get rid of this charlatan, who tried to kill Nigeria by creating a budget just to pay salaries. And then start borrowing to build infrastructure.

They say he helped a lot of officials open numbered secret accounts abroad, while at Goldman Sachs. We know where Ibori is now.
