Nigeria responded with fury Monday after South African authorities confiscated a second tranche of funds meant for arms purchase to fight the extremist Boko Haram sect, denying the deal was unlawful and warning South Africa of its investment in Nigeria. https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/169132-nigeria-talks-tough-warns-south-africa-over-seized-5-7-million-arms-money.html 1 Like 2 Shares |

When it comes to how low Jonathan's government can sink in the realm of shame, there seems to be no limit at all!! So because they have investments in Nigeria, Nigeria should be granted the right to violate their laws without question. What a funny country. South African economic indices are light years ahead of Nigeria's and wouldn't feel as much as a pinch should their investments in this banana republic (as transformed into by Jonathan) be hurt. Matter of fact, Nigeria would be the biggest looser should anything happen to the companies mentioned. Imagine the number of people that would be thrown unto the streets should brands like DSTV and MTN close shops in the country!! We are grappling with crippling unemployment rates and should be looking at doing whatever we can to keep the people so far employed at their duty posts and not get involved in some empty chest beatings which would certainly do us more harm than good!! They have a law abiding and responsible and respectable govt unlike the bunch of nonentities we have presiding over our affairs. If the say don't break their laws, DON'T. SA is not NIGERIA! What a useless government. Smh. 26 Likes 2 Shares |

Must we buy arms from south africa? When did south africa become a major arms manufacturer that we are so bent on buying from them? And what the FG is saying now is that the first $9.3m is gone down the drain abi? Becos they seam to have forgoten about that,hence the second transaction. And all that bullshiit about taking it out on MTN and DSTV is just crap becos MTN and DSTV will bribe our senators and house of assembly members that no bill will be passed to nationalise or sanction them. This is Nigeria. 7 Likes |

Crap! Very useless threat that carries no weight. The fact is that, the whole world knows how corrupt, jonathan, his pastor and friends are, so in their opinion they are withholding the money till next year when an incorruptible, legitimate and purposeful leadership that would be led by the people's General is sworn in. Kudos to SA for coming to our rescue! 5 Likes |

I believe there is something hiding to us all on this shady weapon deal. Can't this country be serious for second? When did this country descend or diminished to this level? The procurement team for this weapon what is their level of education? Does procurement act of such transaction was adhere to? The rule of law in SA do they comply with it? If no, the money should be seized for life and Nigeria govt. Make such move again SA should sue Nigeria government for attempt corruption infection and misappropriation of Nigeria money. 3 Likes |

In all of these, no one has called the NSA, whose office is directly supervising the whole mess, to account for his actions or inactions. Is he not being paid to do his job? I guess maybe it is because he is from a certain untouchable tribe. The president should do the needful already, which is to sack the confused NSA. 6 Likes |

brownlords:Don't mind the sado-masochist jare. South Africa is merely playing politics with the whole issue. Seems some people are still feeling bitter about being usurped as the numero uno economy on the continent thus they are playing dirty. The explanation was clear enough. The transaction was done through a bank and the company having problems with paperwork returned the money. Yet APC apologists will quickly bombard us with silly unfounded claims. They are so confused that they don't even know what to accuse the FG of; maybe arms-smuggling or money laundering. Those who live their lives with so much hate for others do not enjoy happiness too. 8 Likes |
