Odeku and my fellow progressives on this forum, truth is that for some, any discussion on EFCC would always descend to an argument of political witchhunting. This is not co-incidental, the most currupt people in our country are either former or 'want to-rule(loot)-Nigeria-at-all-cost' politicians, so die-hard supporters of these criminal minds are sure to do their darn best rubbishing Ribadu's good work. I found this artical on Ribadu and EFCC today in the Independent, It should make good reading for those who care, http://www.independentngonline.com/news/92/ARTICLE/9609/2006-08-24.html |

oshkosh Good job, what an interesting reading and how true only the guilty are afraid. cast no stone if you are innocent and let EFCC be. I think most of the EFCC bashers in this forum are yahoo boys or 419ers.

Feelers already indicates that the list soon to be published by the EFCC includes the likes of IBB, Dalhatu, Wushishi, Etiebet, Wada Nas, Ikimi, Danjuma, Akhigbe and other criminal minds, friends and foes of OBJ.
The humble amongst these (perhaps like Ani?) will cut deals and spare they and their families further grief, whilst we can expect no such humility from the likes of IBB, Wushishi, Adulsalami, Ikimi, Dan Etete, Danjuma etc. BTW, did you see how Danjuma recently went to court to contest the ownership of the oil block he owned, but withdrawn by the FG? The block in question is allegedly valued at over $1.5 Billion!! Rather than question how he acquired this block in the first place, our extremely vocal but narrow minds where more concerned with the 'political persecution' theory.
But well meaning Nigerians know that the noise about political persecution is aimed at self-preservation. This dying breed will be made extinct sooner or later. Better they humble themselves, own up and return their loot to the people, be sent away and asked to sin no more, or wait to meet their violent fate when this opportunity is long gone!!

Whether Ribadu dey Witch hunt or wizard hunt, my own be say, he is doing a wonderful job.
Somebody has to be used to achieve some means. When OBJ leaves, if he is not dead, somebody will be raised to also run after him.
There are so many people that are not OBJ's friends that the EFCC can't witch hunt. Why are they not pursuing the likes of Gani, Falana, Abraham Adesanya and the rest in the opposition.
Those who have soiled their hands should be brought to book and in the case of OBJ, I say it is a matter of time.

Ribadu was doing a great job till he got himself involved in politics. Yes, there are numbers of other people EFCC hasn't touched yet, but time will tell.
If nothing is done to restructure their strategy and policy, very soon website or forum like this will no longer exist for Nigerian people.

@ BigB, how did Ribadu engage himself in Politics? By arresting Mohammed Babangida or by saying names of those with Nigeria's treasury in their accounts will be published. My friend, Nigeria needs to start from somewhere and if people like you make senseless accusations like this, then we'll never reach anywhere in this fight. Corruption bites deeply into the Nigerian fabric. One needs to open his mind to appreciate the efforts of the EFFC. Nigerians know those who have and are stealing their livelihood, yet have no means to persecute such till the EFFC came. Tafa Balogun claimed he was witch-hunted yet stole billions of naira. I bet you that Balogun's friends and relatives will still deny that the guy never commited a crime, afterall they benefited from the largesse. See thats Nigeria, we all want a change but refuse to accept the truth.
Go on EFFC, arrest and persecute all the bastards that think they can get away with corruption. I don't care who is arrested, if u have nothing to hide, u won't scream and lose sleep!
Plateau legislators have been arrested. I say more grace to the EFFC. If our so called "representatives' cannot put common sense and impeach a criminal Governor who can't pay salaries nor run a state good, then they deserve to be booted out. We have been taken on a ride, its high time it stops!
Persecute theses bastards!

Under the military, force is brought to bear on critics and enemies of the 'state', real and imagined, whilst corruption is nurtured and allowed to flourish (ditto IBB).
On the other hand, the EFCC's battle is against financial crimes, affecting both private/public sectors and individuals.
Whatever methods are applied in the war against this cancer is welcome, as long as it achieves it's results of reducing corruption in our polity is more than welcome.
Nations like Singapore had similar problems. A new leader comes in, locks up all 'the usual suspects' via extra-judicial means amidst an outcry of persecution by the crooks in their land, today Singapore is a leading Asian tiger. Ghana has their own brand of cleansing. In China, it's the death penalty for curruption. Needless to say that China is the fastest growing economy in the world today (I believe will eclipse the US in 5 years). So, economic growth goes hand in hand with the fight against curruption.
And we sit at home and talk of Persecution. The biggest beneficiaries of this culture of graft and thrift are the ones bent on maintaining the status quo, and therefore are the most vocal critics of the EFCC.

DANMASANI: If that is the case, then everyone should be arrested, including you. ,
And don't be brainwashed by the newspaper or media; there are many things going on behind closed door that we don't know. I wouldn't be surprised if it comes out later that Mr. EFCC himself is corrupted.
What goes up would sometimes come down, Let's watch and see.

Big B, why should i be arrested? Did i rob you of your dollar or naira? did i steal money meant for your Uncle pension? Did i confiscate your ancental land? I have nothing to answer to any agency in Nigeria because i am 100% clean. Are u? Like i said, anyone with absolutely no skeleton in his cupboard has nothing to be scared of. Ever heard of Umar Dangiwa? do u hear him scream that EFFC is after him. How about Gani, Buhari, Soyinka? They are clean. They have no billions to hide.
So hide in shame if you have soiled your hands for I pray the EFFC to have a day with you. I'm eyeballed anyhow by others when i say I'm Nigerian because of the fraud and corruption associated with it. I need Ribadu badly to help me reduce that stigma. Yahoo boys and 419ners abound even here in Nairaland. I pray the catch you. I forward all those emails to EFFC, hope they grab u, assholes

Wow, It's Friday; Calm down brothers. It's OK for us to have different point of view. Just calm down DANMASANI. I don't have anything to hide, Even, clean folks with common sense like Wole Shoyinka has advised EFCC to calm down and understand human right law.
I respected this organization (EFCC) before they became OBJ personal vindictive tools,
When I said everyone should be arrested including you, my intention was to display a figure of speech that say, "there is no perfect animal in the cage, they are all the same with diffrent colors.
No need to lower you level like my dear friend, ODEKU. It is OK to disagree on different issues, infact this is the purpose of this forum; for people like us to disagree, debate, share knowledge and at the end of the day learn one or two things from one another.
Only the empty heads like ODEKU are paranoid, because they have nothing to share.
Hence, let's display some respect for one another.
May God bless Nigeria

Danmasani I'm with you on that one, I work in an establishment where risk management is a by-word and compliance is a must.
Disclosing my nationality, often I get the kind of reaction that leaves a lot to be contemplated. Some even make you feel like you need to be apologetic for being Nigerian. Ghanians get much more respect than we do in the UK, despite our characteristically endless soundbites of 'heartbeat of Africa', 'Giant of Africa'. The old guard have taken our nation to the precipiece, yet continue to dominate and manipulate through the press, newspapers which they own - directly or indirectly.
They can shout as loud as they want, complain of persecution through these cynical media outlets, but justice is sure to take it's turn and dimunitive Ribadu is our best hope at this time.

OSHKOSH: Good point. But keep in mind that nobody is saying EFCC is not a blessing for our nation, but at the same time, one has to monitor their activities and ensure that this organization is on the right track; and stays there.
Infact, organization like EFCC should embrace public criticism, which only could bring nothing but improvement to their operation.
We should also keep in mind that the beginning of any organization sometimes determines the end. As someone mentioned before "Rome wasn't built in a day", but the foundation wasn't plywood either.

Keep in mind that as some Nigerians are constantly damaging our image there are many others constantly painting great images. Nigerians in general are very hard working, educated and ambitious group of people,
No one can ever, ever take that away from us.

Well there are different types of criticisms, and the only one you have repeated on this thread n forum is that they are witch hunting IBB and Adenuga with the excuse that all politicians are corrupt you have not specifically point out any of their activities that isnt on track we know they can be heavy handed at times but when u invite people for questioning and they waste your time undermining you, the only option will be to raid their offices and drag them for interrogations! if you can't respect the law why should anybody respect u? |

I have gone through what some folks have stated down here,I believe a solution should be offered by EFCC instead of so much noise they are making,take for instance they yahoo boys,EFCC should make moves to correct them instead of throwing them into jail and beating their chests of clamping down of internet fraudsters,what about the big men in Abuja and Governors,the govt of the day should offer solution like reducing unemployment,what about opening a free programing school (comprehensive computer school)for everybody and anybody to enrol,to fight fraud ,you have to use the carrot and stick method so as to acheive your set goals.EFCC can do a lot more if and only if they provide solutions.

Well,well,well.'Nuff said. There are thieves and there are thieves. In present day Nigeria I'm made to believe there're 2 major classes- the thieves on Baba(OBJ)'s right hand(good side) and the thieves on his left(bad side). Ribadu antagonists are wailing that he's only hounding the disfavored thieves.Does that in any way undermine the simple fact that THEY ARE THIEVES?
Should corruption be condoned @ all?
Na wa for Nigerians O! Can we ever be satisfied?
Ribadu carry go jo!! Deal with them! We are solidly behind you. RIBADU FOR PRESIDENT 2015!!!
As for the thieves that may still be cowering in Baba's right hand shadows,their time will definitely come. At least accountability and transparency have become an issue in Nigeria at last.
This is just the beginning,stay tuned.
