Police Demotes Ribadu- Ex Efcc Boss

The  NEWLY CONSTITUTED Police Service Commission, reverse the former EFCC helmsman promotion from AIG (Assist. Insp. General) back to DCP (Deputy Commissioner of Police) citing irregularities and non-compliance with due process on his appointment.

This action is just shameful, i believe Ribadu has done well for Nigeria, I pray this attempt to humiliate the man will fail.
Our detractors (the looters) I guess will be smiling now.

My brother, i'm still trying to get over it. The man (Ribadu) did well and meant well for Nigeria, although i must admit that he was a bit arrogant but i guess that was needed considering the battles he was fighting.

I dont know where Nigeria is headed!

 I dont pity for Ribadu, he did what was right and will remain the people's hero

I pity for the other 139 others who were taken down merely because some people wanted to take down Ribadu.

President Yar'adua has no dignity.

Seriously, this humiliation is just too much! Instead of giving him national merit award, some evil people are hell bent on smearing his name. They wont succeed in JESUS name. They wont ni oruko Jesu (Amin)! Insha Allah

can Yaradua overule what??

I guess u dont understand that Yaradua should be held responsible for Ribadu's demotion.

pls lets not make a big deal out of this,from what i recollect ribadu got a double promotion which he was not qualified for during the obj time by virture of his relationship with the presidency and being the efcc boss

obj did true,but im saying maybe what they are doing now is actually adjusting everything back to the way it should be normally

Well, nigerians has always been users, uses you and dump you when you are no more of use, so Ribadu is just the next checkmate on the chess board.

I hate that word Baba, baby knows how many pikin him get and pikin know him papa.
They shd have put that fool in prison, and let him die there.

Isn’t that what they want in the first place? I guess the case that contest Waziri’s nomination as EFCC chairman is still in court. The only way to fully throw the case out is if they can provide evidence that oppose / flaws Ribadu’s right to occupy the position in the first place. The idea is to frustrate the man’s life so that he will have no option but to quit and for the case in court to sort itself out automatically.

I think the man should continue with the fight. Based on their argument, they saying if we give high school kid double promotion based on his past performance (proven academics) …and this kid shows he’s capable of excelling brilliantly in his/her new position. Now, because this kid’s ability to perform threatening those elders he met in class. Does that mean we should demote him because of that? I think this is a fight that is worth fighting for, why chicken out. The man said in one of his speech, he’ll die fighting corruption. Well, here is his chance to prove he’s not all words.

To Ribadu,
The darkest hours are before dawn, do not give up. I love you so much. Aluta continua,

The Nigerian judiciary is known for following legal exactitudes; they follow the law as it is written in the rule book, they forget that the law should be adjusted based on the circumstances and every situation is unique that's why the law needs to be constantly ammended. This is one of the reasons why our public officials cannot stand trial for there misbehaviour in office, simply because the constitution simply says that they are immuned from prosecution. This law is in the US constitution to prevent frivolous lawsuits and NOT CORRUPTION CHARGES. The US judiciary understands what the Nigerian judiciary does not: THAT THERE IS AN EXCEPTION FOR EVERY RULE.

They want to demote this guy simply because his double promotion by OBJ was not by the book, therefore it was not done in due process, WHAT A SHAME.

Again, McKren, you do not get it.
Yar'Adua has done what is right by getting rid of Ribadu.

There was not need to fight over left over; the right thing to do was to immediately discard the mess OBJ left behind.

If Ribadu was still in-charge, Ehindero would still be walking around beating his chest as the man, his sister wouldn't have been demoted (as she was also promoted illegally), Bode George would still be sitting pretty, Akala would still be stealing 1 Billion every 11 months as a governor and many many more.

Ribadu played himself.
Yar'Adua has done well.

Can he not just resign from public service and save his name and face?

i'm still speechless! cant believe what's going on. THIS IS PURE VENDATTA. VENDATTA in its PUREST FORM

I really feel for him, :'(
