SSS Arrests El-Rufai Again Over N286bn Accusation by edoyad(m): 8:46am On Aug 28, 2011 |
Sss Arrests El-rufai Again, On Return From London Alongside Buhari. State Security Services (SSS) yesterday picked up former Minister of Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja, Mallam Nasir el-Rufai, at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja. The SSS said el-Rufai had accused the security forces of receiving N286 billion for their operations but had nothing to show for it, which was why insecurity in the country continued to persist. Spokesperson for the SSS, Marilyn Ogar, in a telephone chat with Sunday Sun said the SSS would want el-Rufai to clarify his allegation on the said money because what the security forces got through the National Security Adviser (NSA) was just over N100 billion. Mrs. Ogar further said the former minister by his allegations published in one of the national dailies on Friday bridged the Freedom of Information Bill (FoI) by not cross-checking his facts before going to the press. “The SSS only wants to verify from the former Minister of FCT his allegations that the security forces through the NSA received a whopping sum of N286 billion without showing anything for it. By his allegation, he has bridged the FoI law by not cross-checking his facts,” Ogar stated. Sunday Sun also gathered that the former minister would be arraigned in court tomorrow. El-Rufai, who was returning to the country from London alongside General Muhammudu Buhari, was led away by the SSS in the early hours of Saturday. The former FCT Minister is currently cooling his heels in an underground cell. http://www.sunnewsonline.com/webpages/features/newsonthehour/2011/aug/28/newsbreak-28-08-2011-001.html |

Useless SSS, so he missed their budget by a couple of billions he is arrested, I am waiting for the judge that will sentence him for something as puny as that, meanwhile, who are the bombers and when will they be arrested. |

Sun Newspaper found it difficult to distinguish between 'breach' and 'bridge'? Also, the usage was more than once. Anyway, SSS needs to prove (in court) that this is neither a flimsy case nor a distraction as the security challenge on their plate right now is gargantuan. |

Pukkah: . All these editors sef. Another one i noticed last week was the continued use of 'Wreck havoc' in place of 'Wreak havoc'. |

Pukkah: Indeed. I don't know how this Government , unless entirely clueless, can continue to display an ill-timed penchant for taking decisions that appear totally indefensible in the face of current challenges. Examples are: Increased pay for the NSA while Nigerians are dying from terrorist attacks. tenure elongation , as priority number one, in the face of serious socio-economic challenges. Detention of El-Rufai for what amounts to 'misrepresentation' , when a public rebuttal would have sufficed, at a time the SSS should have other far more pressing challenges. Na wa OOOOO. |

#100billion or #286billion,the issue is that thus far they have no result to show for collecting such hefty allocation.They are making a laughing stock out of themselves by persecuting el-rufai,afterall the man is right,insecurity is the order of the day today in Nigeria. |

Can't this government leave the opposition alone and go after Boko Haram and the other mass murderers and thieves crawling around the country? |

It seems to me that the Sun Newspaper mistakenly recycled the old story on its website - this happens quite frequently on news websites. El-Rufai certainly didn't write that articel on Friday - he already published it a couple of months or so ago, and he was certainly not returning from London with Buhari - exactly as the incident a month or so ago. Pay attention people |

remixing news is what our government does this story of the chinese manuals in the power station has been floating around for at least 6 months , it has even been discussed on nl at some point in the same way, the intercepted munitions the SSS made so much noiuse about at the port had been intercepted at least two months before. that was also dicussed in a follow up story some months later it seems our government is into the business of manufacturing news yeah, i know, offtopic |

Re: SSS Arrests El-Rufai Again Over N286bn Accusation by MosD: 5:51pm On Aug 28, 2011 |
I did sense the news can not be entirely correct. How could it be that it is anytime that el-rufai is coming from london with buari that he would be picked up? |

That statement was in circulation BEFORE the FOI bill was signed into law now . . . or do I have my dates on this crossed? I remember reading his claim in the dailies, and wondering if the man had already/speed speed had time to cross check in like two minutes of signing of the FOI. |
