Who Could Have Opposed The Presidential Pardon? by modicum: 7:37am On Mar 14, 2013
STILL ON THE NATIONAL COUNCIL OF STATES' DECISION!
The Nigerian Council of States comprises; President, Vice-President, former Presidents and former Heads of Government, current and former Chief Justices of Nigeria; Senate President, Speaker of the House of Representatives; Governors of the 36 states and Attorney-General of the Federation.

But who among these people would have made attempts to block the presidential pardon given particularly to Chief DSP Alamieyeseigha?

Is it GEJ. No. He presented the proposal in the first instance. Alams has information on GEJ's loot during his stay in Bayelsa.
Is it Namadi Sambo. No. He is too focused on VP candidate for 2015.
Is it General Yakubu Gowon? No, he was also a beneficiary.
Is it Shehu Shagari? No.
Is it Mohammad Buhari. Maybe. Perhaps that was why he was absent.
Is it IBB. Not likely. He needs to enjoy his loot in peace.
Is it OBJ. No. No. No. He was a beneficiary. He also extend presidential pardon to a former speaker - Salisu Buhari. (convicted of perjury and forgery)
Is it the CJ. No. Not woman enough to rock the boat.
Is it former Justice Belgore. No. He is too busy enjoying government contracts.
Is it Justice Mohammed Uwais. Oh, I pity this man in midst of all these people.
Is it David Mark or Aminu Tambuwal. They are so focused on 2015. They probably would need same in future.
Is it the serving Governors. No. They probably would be needing the same presidential pardon in not too distant future.

Who then would have stood up to oppose this motion?

This is the tragedy we face....
