And whose Job, it is to arrest and prosecute him brownfool?

Sibabasibaba1:
Please can you provide a link to the report of this indictment. I will be glad to see it. I do not mean hearsay but a report of a panel, committee,etc.

Shortly after she was removed as minister, Obasanjo relieved her as chairman of his economic think tank.

But in a chat with Pointblanknews.com in Abuja, former presidential candidate for the Peoples Mandate Party (PMP), Dr Batos Nwadike insisted Obasanjo fired Okonjo- Iweala because of the debt buy back deal. He said further that even though the deal appeared legitimate, there were some moral questions that cast doubt on the intentions of the former minister .

According him, even though Obasanjo saw her as the one with the magic wand, the former President was upset when he discovered went happened in the back room.http://www.pointblanknews.com/News/os5512.html

U don't get it? Its bad precedence; it encourages corruption! Don't care abt Clinton!

Now you know what those guys stand for. They don't care whether Nigeria collapse

barcanista:
How many High Profile conviction from members of his Cabinet and party? At least Obasanjo showed it(though selectively).
He fired the Minister of Finance, Okonjo Iwaela in 2006 based on an indictment, and removed her from the Economic Team

He fired a Minister of Education Fabian Osuji based on indictment and instituted his prosecution.

He fired an incumbent Inspector General, prosecuted him and secured his conviction.

He Prosecuted 5 Senators that were associated to Osuji's case, including the Senate President Wabara, who was impeached.

Gov Alams pleaded guilty and was convicted plus many other cases,

Please how many have we witnessed under GEJ?

datolee:


Why do you keep misleading the masses? NOI was redeployed from ministry of finance to ministry of foreign affairs. OBJ appointed Esther Nenadi Usman as the new minister of finance and new head of economic team. NOI resigned as a result, he was never fired nor indicted by any panel

Aloralord1:

My brother, its ludicrous to see statements like that from datolee. Such a brilliant guy selling an unsellable product.. Didn't GEJ promise zero tolerance to corruption?

barcanista:
First, Iwaela did not resign from the Cabinet and the Economic Think-tank, She was fired!
Secondly, Obasanjo is not interested in "Committee" and Panel to look into allegations/indictment that bothers on fraud/corruption against cabinet members or big officials if he wants to act, he let you go- Eg Tafa Balogun, SP Wabara, Fabian Osuji and few others including Atiku Abubakar(He couldn't sack him but demanded for his Impeachment in 2007 though unsuccessful). Dude, Oby Ezeks was fully part of the Cabinet and the Think tank, she's alive.Same with Obasanjo, elRufai and Nanadi Usman- who was the Finance Minister of State and elevated to the Finance Minister. I know you will argue though.

barcanista:
Bros when she was redeployed to Foreign Affairs she maintained her position as Head of the Economic Team aka Think Tank. But Obasanjo later relieved her of her role in the Think Tank and later Foreign Affairs. Okonjo Iwaela performed her function in the Foreign Ministry before her relief.

datolee:


You do not know anything, NOI was redeployed to ministry of foreign affairs and still retained the headship of the economic team, however when she was in London negotiating another debt relief for Nigeria, she was removed as the head... she resigned as soon as she got back. She accepted the redeployment to the ministry of foreigner affairs on the bases that she will be retained as the head of the economic team. She served for foreign affairs minister for a period of less than 2 months.

She was not fired, she resigned.

barcanista:
She was Fired and not resignation. Obasanjo removed her first as Finance Minister to Foreign Affairs, and later Removed her as Chairman of the Economic Team. You want to make people believe that "That was an agreement for retaining NOI as Chair of the Tink tank", lol, which agreement? Bros, no such agreement existed anywhere. President Obasanjo removed her. If something wasn't in the offing baba would never have touched her in Finance Ministry and later Economic Team.

datolee:


Question for you, why would Obasanjo redeploy her to the ministry of foreign affairs only to sack her with 44 days?

So, she was corrupt, instead of sacking her as minister of finance, OBJ had to send her to foreign affairs ministry and sack her in 44 days.. does this make sense to you?

It was at the same of re-shuffle of the government that Oby Ezekwesili was redeployed from mines and solid mineral to education.. was it also because she was corrupt?

You still have not shown any link to the fact that she was sacked. I have given you her resignation letter.

He fired the Minister of Finance, Okonjo Iwaela in 2006 based on an indictment, and removed her from the Economic Team

NgeneUkwenu:


It is now clear, you are just a stark illiterate! Ewu Brownfool

Sibabasibaba1:
Interesting! [s]You have changed from an emphatic indicted to "alleged removal"[/s].

Ezekwesiri did not oversea education. She was a substantive minister of education. When she left Solid Minerals Ministry, she was replaced with the Professor Leslie Obiora who later resigned in 2007 after she was redeployed in the Special Duties Ministry.

Maybe Obiora was also sacked since in your books everybody who resigns has been sacked.

barcanista:
She oversaw the Solid Mineral Ministry before the appointment of Obiora even as Education Minister. Her own case was purely different and commendable

My stance on Okonjo Iwaela as regards to what transpired, actions and inactions of President Obasanjo, her removal from Finance Ministry and as Head Economic Team remains unchanged. It is only a blind fellow that did not read the Message in Aaondoakaa's sack from Justice Ministry

HOW JONATHAN HANDLES CORRUPTION

1. Pardoned exConvict and Felon Alamesigha

2. Shielded Stella Odua Only to tell her "Go In Peace" despite the N2N55 million indictment on the two Bullet proof cars

3. No Conviction has been secured against any former Official. In Fact, Daniel, Akala, Bankole, Tafida etc are given clean bill of health.

4. Corruption case that was instituted by Yar Adua was withdrawn against Fani Kayode

5. Corruption Case that was instituted by Obasanjo was withdrawn against Muhammed Abacha

6. Farouk Lawan is still smiling in the green chamber, despite the clear evidence of bribery. The Subsidy indicted people are smiling daily

7. exConvict Bode George who was prosecuted by Yaradua got a "miraculous" clean bill of health under this administration

8. Diezani Maduekwe is running from court to court just to evade questioning from House of Reps on allegation bordering on corruption


The EFCC and ICPC under this administration is neither a biting nor a barking dog.

Is it that your party is tired of marketing their candidates now that you now have to compare individuals from same party? Implicitly, you are saying that PDP isn't bad after all? If they have solid programs, let them continue then....

Wonder why all the alleged corrupt officials are united in the promotion of Goodluck2015 Project?

We can't compare Jonathan and Buhari because the latter is light years ahead of him. Comparing Jonathan to Obasanjo means comparing a Failed Government(Obj) with a Very Woeful one(Jonathan).

HOW PRESIDENT OBASANJO HANDLED CORRUPTION

1. Senate President Adolphus Wabara along was Indicted and Impeached by his colleagues for allegedly partaking in 50 million Naira Bribe from the Education Minister Professor Fabian Osuji.The Education Minister Fabian Osuji was dismissed by President Olusegun Obasanjo. Wabara, Fabian Osuji along with Senators Abdulazeez Ibrahim, Emmanuel Okpede, Badamasi Maccido and Chris Adighije were fingered in the scandal. All six were handed to ICPC for trial. Prosecution was ongoing till the end of the tenure

2. Inspector-General of Police, Mr Tafa Balogun was fired by the President when he was indicted by the EFCC for corruption to the tune of 13 billion. The Government through the EFCC went ahead to prosecute him, having him give up some properties worth 13 billion and secured a six(6) month conviction against him.

3. Governor Deprieye of Bayelsa was arrested in London in 2005 for money laundering. The Government ensured that he was impeached on his escape from jail, and he was prosecuted for looting Bayelsa. He pleaded guilty, gave up some of his properties and was convicted for two years.

4. Vice President Atiku Abubakar was indicted by the EFCC on allegation that borders on mismanagement and gross misconduct as Chairman of PTDF.


Under Obj, the fear of EFCC and ICPC was the begining of "SAY NO TO CORRUPTION"

GenBuhari, with due respect, I will advice you to desist from absolving late Gen Abacha of corruption.

barcanista:
Bros, You are missing it. I and other progressives are not saying Obj was a good guy, but he made some decisions worthy of note. He secured the conviction of prominent men within his party and even a Governor. This Administration would rather have a Tea Party with them.
