This old post is a reminder of what reason the SAs give for xenophobia in 2019. Some Nigerians in SA must share in the blame.

Politics / Nigerian Drug trafficker in South Africa: photo by ChrisOD: 5:45am On Oct 03, 2015
Operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency have arrested a South African based grocer with 3.920kg of substances found to be methamphetamine. 

The drug was concealed in false bottom of two bags he wanted to check-in at the departure hall. The arrest took place during outward screening of passengers on Ethiopian airline flight to South Africa.

The Ayoola Ayodeji Adebayo who holds a Higher National Diploma in Estate Management at Osun State College of Technology in 2006 said that he made a mistake getting involved in drug trafficking. 

“I am a grocer in Pretoria. I have lived in South Africa for over three years. I am married with two children. My friend in Pretoria asked me to bring two bags to him. He bought my return ticket and gave me one hundred and fifty thousand naira. I thought the drug would not be detected because it was neatly concealed. This is a big mistake on my part because I have sustained my family with the grocery business. It will not happen again if I can get out of this problem.” Ayoola said

NDLEA Chairman, Ahmadu Giade said the agency has put in-place devices that can detect drugs hidden in the most unsuspecting places. 

“This is in preparation for anticipated increase in drug trafficking at the airports, land borders and seaports towards the end of the year. The arrest of Ayoola whose drug was neatly concealed is an indication that more drugs shall be detected” Giade stated.

The suspect will appear in court soon.

abagoro:


I don't think so. My problem is with investments outside Igboland. If Tonimas from Anambra invests in Aba, Irange drugs from Imo invests in Onitsha, Arthur Eze from Anambra invests in Enugu or Pius Anyim from Ebonyi invests in Aba or Obianodo(Rockview) from Anambra invests in Owerri there is nothing wrong at all. It helps foster unity.

But can you explain though why Igbos are apathetic towards investing in Igboland? At first they said it is about location/market. But note that 20 years ago there was no market in Dubai, but today all roads globally lead to Dubai markets.

OP, why not Buhari brobe till the days of Sir Fredric Luggards?

Just because Nigeria want to recover the funds that was looted by the past administration, some clowns want us to embark on a journey of the shadows up to 1850.

Let Phase One of probing Jonathan's administration end first. You can send us on round 2.

And you think the last administration just looted the treasury without also going away with incriminating dossiers against previous govt, including Buhari's PTF? You hope that the past govt will stand in the dock and not implicate past ones with incriminating information at their disposal?

I do not think it is far back in history to probe the 3 most recent past administrations. If you think so, then you are doing a charade.

pharmagba:
In as much I want to agree with you I beg to differ a little.
1- the anti- corruption war is not a 100m race, it is a long tedious, convoluting herculean task, this administration cannot focus on only this as there are many needs of Nigerian hence may need to take on the last administration whose level of impunity has never been paralleled anywhere in the world since the creation of mankind.
Money recovered from this last administration alone can catapult Nigeria into one of the top economy in the world in less than 4yrs, if well utilized. Hence I support the need to focus firstly and importantly on the last administration.
2- for the other administration's anybody who has evidence of corruption should write to EFCC: now that anti- graft agency has resurrected from the dead and are willing to carry out their responsibility

I have already said that the last administration should be probed. But so should the other 2 democratic govts too. Obasanjo's govt was by all means more corrupt than GEJ's. Plus, are you by any means suggesting that the state past govts should be allowed to go home free?
Politics / Re: My opinion on Buhari's Impending Probe by ChrisOD: 5:32pm On Jul 28, 2015
Speaking about past military regimes, Abacha has somehow been probed to an extent by Obasanjo; a lot of Abacha's loot was recovered. The only military big fish left is IBB, and may be Abubakar.

I believe the military regimes of Obasanjo and Buhari were by far less corrupt. than those after them.

Generally speaking, the military leaders were accountable to no one. They risked their lives and hussled themselves into power; no one voted for them. On that note they no ''owe'' anybody (so to speak)
Politics / My opinion on Buhari's Impending Probe by ChrisOD: 5:21pm On Jul 28, 2015
In the spirit of fairness, justice and democratic accountability, Buhari's probe should extend to the civilian regimes of Obasanjo, Yaradua and Jonathan.

We can ''forgive'' the military regimes before Obasanjo (that is, pre-1999) as we did not elect them into power (painful, but what choice do we have as Buhari himself was a former military leader; so I guess he cannot probe himself).

So Obasanjo, Yaradua (should be raised from the dead to answer questions cheesy cheesy) and Jonathan should be probed. Then Buhari should be ready to be probed after his own regime.

This is good for democracy.

BTW, we should also probe the leadership of the Senate and House during these civilian regimes, as well as all past State governors (most of these governors are the worst criminals in Nigeria)

Lol...buhari would rather quit than to be dragged to any debate venue and I don't see how PDP could've force him to attend a debate by force anyway.

They could have, if they were serious about it. It appeared that they paid only lip service to it and was not even sure that their principal would give a good debate either.

For instance, they could have gone ahead and presented GEJ in a debate and let him wait for Buhari for a few minutes and then go ahead and debate himself if Buhari does not show up, listing all the positives he has achieved and then telling the country that Buhari failed to show up because he had nothing to debate about. That would have shamed APC into agreeing to a new round of debate

That was due to the stupidity of PDP. Their publicity department sucked; they were the party in power yet could not get their opponent to come for a debate. How then can they do so now that Buhari is in power? Stupid APC, even more stupid PDP.
