The question is: Why is Nigeria not taking preemptive actions to stop the massive lootings instead of resorting to chasing the funds after the deeds?

MEMO TO MY PRESIDENT, THE THIEF CATCHER...

My dear Mr. President,
Rankadede sir.

There is always this sense of excitement from your supporters whenever they hear that someone (always from the opposition) has been invited by EFCC. They go overdrive whenever figures are mentioned.

Let me make it clear: I am 100% in support of you if you go after those who were awarded contracts and collected money without working. I will be your anti-corruption ambassador of you go after service chiefs who diverted money meant for their services. I support you if you go after banks who aided money laundering. I am your man if you go after those itchy fingers at FIRS. Or those who collected defence contacts and subsidy claims and ran away. BUT YOU CAN NEVER BE MY GUY WITH THIS YOUR PROBING OF CAMPAIGN FUNDS. You know why? You are more GUILTIER than those you are pursuing!

It is not only immoral, but against law of natural fairness for you who publicly announced that you borrowed money to buy your nomination form, but ran a campaign of hundred of billions of naira. Where did your money come from? Let tell you certain things which you know about or pretending not to know.

* When Akin Ambode resumed as governor of Lagos State, the total money he reportedly met in ALL Lagos State bank accounts was a paltry N850m! It was the lowest in recent memory. Not that alone. Capital budget for the fiscal year had been executed up to 85%! Yet, that was just FIVE months to the year. We only saw capital spending without capital projects. If they present these facts before you, you cannot deny you don't know where these monies went to.

*Rivers State has been complaining over almost N100b missing few months to the end of one of your minister's tenure as governor. Invite Wike over and you will hear ween!

* Each state being ruled by your party was taxed to contribute to your campaign. Depending on the strength of their treasuries. But they tried to outdo themselves. Sir, can you swear by Allah that you don't know why many states could not pay salaries today? Ask your campaign treasurer! And also banks they took overdrafts from!

* One of your ministers today, who is seen as agents of change, actually took N1b bank loan to prosecute a second term election he lost in 2014. If you are keen at probing campaign funds, sit him down and ask how he intends to pay back. As I write this, the loan is still pending!

* There are couple of banks and oil service companies who contributed to your campaign funding too. Your EFCC has pretended as if it is not aware.

Politicians know themselves. They know how they fund campaigns. It is public funds. Contracts are inflated or outrightly not carried out. Funds are diverted. Banks play their own role. Contractors key in. On the eve of election, banks overwork themselves. From minister/commissioner down to special assistants, cash is provided for them to go and prosecute elections in their areas. These runs into billions. Is that acceptable? NO! BUT THAT WAS HOW YOUR OWN ELECTION WAS PROSECUTED TOO.

I learnt you turned the blind eye when all these were going on. You jettisoned your long held personal principle not to have anything to do with thieves. After winning election and assuming office, you wanted to pick that principle again and expect someone like me to hail you? No sir! Lailai!

Since you saw nothing wrong in people stealing to run your own campaign, you have no moral justification to go after those who equally stole to run their own campaigns too. Public funds are public funds, either in Abuja or Lagos!

I will continue this campaign until your DSS picks me up. That's the worst they can do!

Assurances of my highest regards! Say me well to the First Lady. Sorry, Wife of the Thief Catcher. Sorry again, Wife of the President...

The funds were wired out. What stringent measures are in place to punish erring banks and bank employees who cosigned the transfer?

The bolded statement above summarises the whole article and the gross hypocrisy of that useless cameron abi na amplicox. How can someone you know is a thief gives you money to hold and you accept it only to turn around and call that person 'corrupt' what about you?. I don't blame them, i blame those people that out of hatred for buhari supports any negative report about the country forgetting that we are in the ship together and God forbids anything happen to it, 'Titanic would be a child's play'.

Oooo. Why did u spoil the good thing you wrote.
leave people who hate Buhari alone. People must hate people. Personally, am not a fan of Buhari, but, I like his anti corruption moves.

Those you should blame are all our politicians, both in APC and PDP. They are the problems.

Besides, is there any president who people did not hate?

Since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that entangles us and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecta of faith. Jesus loves and cares for you. Allow Him to rule over your life. Say no to sin today ‪#‎HigherGroundBCevan‬

Responding to the recent comments by David Cameron, Cobus de Swardt, Managing Director of Transparency International said:

“There is no doubt that historically, Nigeria and Afghanistan have had very high levels of corruption, and that continues to this day.  But the leaders of those countries have sent strong signals that they want things to change, and the London Anti-Corruption Summit creates an opportunity for all the countries present to sign up to a new era.  This affects the UK as much as other countries: We should not forget that by providing a safe haven for corrupt assets, the UK and its Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies are a big part of the world’s corruption problem.”

I watched the conversation between the pm, the queen, the archbishop and other persons. If I am the Nigerian president I will immediately cancel my attendance at the summit. Imagine the manner the pm felt so morally puffed up when he mentioned Nigeria and Afghanistan. He was feeling like he was God.
Nigeria better wake up. How can someone who is treating you for a terminal disease go behind your back and start announcing to the world that you will die soon. I am peeved.
