Babachir And Magu Gates, Waiting For Buhari To Prove His Doubters Wrong. by OLADD: 8:00am On Dec 17, 2016
The seeming passive camps of pro and anti supporters of Buhari's government came to life during the week when the nation was awoken to resounding gongs of corruption allegations against two prominent serving officials of the APC-led adminstration by the country's legislative arm. To some, these latest graft allegations are no less different from the ones hanging on the necks of Buratai, Lawal Daura, Jafaru Issa and other close aides of the president who are still walking freely despite alarming graft offences they allegedly committed. Others however hold the strong belief that Mr. President is under immense pressure to prove his doubters wrong by sacrificing both Babachir and Magu to enhance his anti corruption image. While pontificating over Buhari's likely next line of action, let's consider the following scenarios:

1. In an apparent bid to save his neck from the tags of incompetence and complicity, Mr. President ignored budget padding allegations raised by Jubrin against leaders of National Assembly despite concrete evidence to that effect. Pursuing the case in the reasoning of the president would have portrayed him as an incompetent leader who signed a padded budget into law. It would have further indicted him for not putting his house in order before sending the appropriation bill to the NA for confirmation So, the president took the easiest escapist route by simply telling the world that the 2016 Budget was not padded. Would the president toe the same line in Babachir and Magu's cases?

2. Taking point 2 above into consideration would the president go ahead to accept Senate's rejection of Magu against the backdrop of been blamed for not thoroughly screening him before been sent to the NA for confirmation?

3. Will the president live with or ignore the shame of been bypassed by the DSS who chose to submit Magu's indictment report directly to the Senate and still take pitch his tent with the legislators?

4. Will the acceptance of Senate's recommendation not solidify the position of many who believe that Buhari is not in control of his government?

5. If the president choose to damn all consequences by sticking with both Magu and Babachir, what does this portend for his anti corruption crusade and 2019 aspiration (if any) lest we forget the damaging effect of Sanusi's $20 billion missing NNPC money allegation on Jonathan's 2015 reelection bid.

Let Buhary be bold enough to justify to the senate why a corrupt Magu should be the one that can successfully fight corruption without continuous compromise.

Guy, why are you trying to avoid being quoted? Only cowards do that.

Common sense dictates that the Senate should prove beyond doubt that Magu is corrupt by releasing the purported security report of DSS relied on to reject his nomination.

One wonders if you really take time to digest any topic before lunching your net into the ocean of commentary. The underlining point is not about Buhari upholding the doctrine of Separation of Powers but the unexplainable fact that such damning report was not discussed with the president (who's is the C-in-C) before finding its way into the hallowed chambers. It also portrays Buhari as a double faced leader who probably ignored Magu's atrocities and still sent his name to the NA for confirmation. Try not to reason like a robot.

Firstly, it's the duty of the DSS to send the said report to the president been an agency under direct supervision and control of the executive. Secondly, publishing the report on the pages of newspapers or through other means will amount to media trial which EFCC itself is been accused of. The Senate has promised to send the report directly to the president.

I doubt. he is just incompetent...

PMB is cunning... but he is not intelligent or smart enough to grasp the rudiments of governance.

hence his resort to crude tactics better suited for the Victorian era, which includes having a retinue of praise singers who sing his praises even when they know that things are going astray...

Hypocritic old man ! You supported the same DSS when they raided the judge houses without proving they were corrupt beyond reasonable doubt.

Big shame on you.

Personally, I don't expect them to feature on this thread. They're a bunch of people with tainted and perverse minds who will never stand for truth but we would not stop exposing the evil of this satanic govt. There's no difference between Dasuki and Babachir's alleged crimes, yet Buhari is still seen as a saint!
