President Umaru Yar’Adua yesterday criticized former president Olusegun Obasanjo for wasting over N1.2-trillion ($10-billion) on the energy sector between 2000 and 2007.
Yar’Adua who said his administration was wary of investing more money on the energy sector stated the huge amount of money spent on the sector by Obasanjo’s government did not make any impact on the revitalization of the sector.

The only reason why Obasanjo`s tenure will not be probed is cos EFCC,ICPC and Yaradua are afraid of what they going to uncover.

PROBBING OBJ

The onus is on those who are convinced that former president Obasanjo and/his cronies corruptly enrich themselves to forward their complaints with supporting evidence to the appropriate agency—EFCC, ICPC or Code of Conduct Bureau. It is errant nonsense to make allegation just because you do not like the man. Until we change our nature of always blaming the leader for all that is wrong with our country, we will not progress. No, I am not defending Obasanjo or, anyone for that matter, but the hallmark of citizenship advocacy is not empty talk. You’ve got to back it up with action in form of evidence.

So fellow citizens with verifiable evidence of misdeed, could you rise up to your responsibility and forward it to any of this corruption fighting bodies. If after that, they do not act, then, it can be published in the newspaper for Nigerians to Judge. There are even the options of the citizen taken legal actions if he/she has the evidence. The same thing applies to the hues and cries about IBB. Yes, I despise IBB for what he did but, you do not make claims of self-enrichment on pages of Newspaper.

It is laziness at an appalling level that lead to direct stealing of state fund by chief executive officer of a state. The position affords the occupant such a level of privilege information that, -if moneymaking is one of his desires- he should not have any problem making it honestly. And mind you, I am not even referring to abuse of office, which is rampant in our system

For those who think the EFCC is compromised, of all the current 8 governors facing trial, how many of them are from PDP? Again, it is the nature of Nigerians to criticize without any deep analysis. When was the last time an Inspector General of Police was dragged to court and convicted? Yes, I agree that the sentences these crooks are getting are too light but we’ve got to start somewhere. Things that happened under Ribadu/OBJ has never happened in the history of our country and we need to acknowledge that.

.

Finally, I think each of us has to hold ourselves responsible at some level. If President Musa Yar-Dua was fraudulently elected, who perpetrated the fraud? Was it the president or, millions of Nigeria who compromise themselves? Nigeria will not grow until we commit at an individual to self-development in all facets of human indices.

you see the mistake of NiGERIA is hope. if you do not misplace hope you can neva be hopeless

my advice: do not vote

becos it does not matter good or evil candidate does not matter all is evil so pray

You see Yar'D is just trying to make himself look holy by OBJ did this did that. The truth is that they did it together.

Ijekuje can neva end in Nigerian system. Believe. Some are talking about figures billion of dollas nairas.
How are you so sure the figures are right?
Fraud is not the only problem in Nigeria it is just the main distraction from whats really happening.
Whats happening the break down.
Every thing happening is to break people in like fresh slave that has not done any hard labour or recieved whippings.

not only should obj b probed, his ass should be examined by the drug agencies for cocaine because we dont know what he was carrying around the world on all those trips.

Who is to probe him? The Man who is currently in Germany for the second time in almost 11 months he has been in office now??

LMAO


Anyway, that does not have a bearing on weather Obj should be probed or not. Just curious------ What is the actual function of the Judiciary?

He is untouchable.

It is not about bearing. This is an article was not posted BEFORE Yar Adua proclaimed he would go with RULE of LAW, this was made during his time in office and if he has not come out to say IT IS NOT TRUE, then I suggest you understand that it is not an issue of whether he should be probed or not as YOU HAVE CLEARLY BEEN TOLD that HE WILL NOT. So what the heck?? LMAO!!!

I say you accept the reality of the post and then choose what to do about it instead of trying to make this about whether he should or should not which has already been answered for us all. LMAO!!!

pdp, men they should be voted out, they are indeed killing us spiritually, chai

1999, obj came and made promise upon promise, he failed, 2003,he beg for a 2nd term to enable him fullfil his promise, again he failed, 2007, he brought yar'dua/gej to come and do what he cudn't do for 8yars, and what happen yar'adua RIP, , ur Gej was part of that admistration 4 good 4yrs, and they failed or was he not there? that brings us to 2011, the same failing term in the pasted 12 yrs(obj, ibb, annenih, atiku and the rest of other looters in PDP) are potrating ur moses(GEJ) to come and change 9ja, give him ur vote and u give away another 4yrs of no light, no gd road, no infrastructure, no job, no hospital, high cost of food.etc, even a kid from kindergarten know who to vote 4 this time aroung, it bit my imagination seeing our 2day youth, campaigning 4 GEJ (PDP),
