Falana submission does not hold water. It has been refuted by NNPC's 2nd submission today.

LOL. It has not been. NNPCs submission did not even address anything. It was laughable. They have been cornered.

Really? Go and read it again. Also read Osinbajo's reply that he approved NNPC'S contracts while he was acting President. Then tell me what you think.

Kachikwu's mismanagement of this entire incident may end up costing him dearly.

Falana should not make only the legal noise and grammar here...

he should do the needful by taking this matter to court, that is when he must have proved that he is serious and a patriot

enough of all these noise....without action..!

I have read it over and over again. Nothing was said.

So Osinbajo approved an NNPC contract unilaterally? Who gave him powers to? At what point did he get it to approve of it without the consent of the FEC? If the FEC were involved who presented the memo to them?

The same Osinbajo that sent Baru to get input from Kachikwu approved a contract without same Kachikwu's input?

I thought NNPC claimed President Buhari in his capacity as Petroleum Minister approved the contracts? Now it is Osinbajo in his capacity as acting president? Does acting president equate being Petroleum Minister?

This is preposterous. Please don't say this thing to any lawyer worth his onions you'd be shredded. PMBs govt stands to lose credibility for this so the VP has been offered as the fall guy. Due process was clearly breached and with each flimsy rejoinder the evidence becomes even more glaring.

Why is everyone silent on the appointments? Have you noticed the rhetoric that the NTB approves contracts is fizzling? Because it has been exposed to be another lie. The NTB does not approve contracts.

Have you noticed that each approved contract should have a seal by a member of the NNPC board as approved by the chairman of that board? So who is the chairman of that board and who did he approve to provide the seal on the contracts?

How is it possible that the NNPC board that is mandated to supervise ALL the activities of the NNPC (which includes the NTB) will somehow have no say in the contracts that are to be executed by the same NTB?

Okay just what if by an impossible happenstance Baru was right all along. What would be his reason for still bypassing Kachikwu? If he was being fair-minded and open - why dodge Kachikwu and hide behind the NTB?

NNPCs response that Kachikwu nominated so and so or that he acted without a board is redundant hogwash because I already told you on that other thread that he was Minister and GMD (as there was no board in place) so he simply had to get approval from the president himself. But now that Baru has a Board in place that oversees his office why sideline that board?

I have not received one credible answer from any of his sympathizers and it is really disheartening because I believed in this govt from the jump.

You are going round in circles. Osinbajo was acting President, or have you forgotten? He had powers to approve or deny contracts. And the input Baru was asked to get from Kachikwu concerned NNPC personnel changes, and not contracts. Osinbajo has NOT said he approved those contracts without seeing Kachikwu's input, has he? Also, the NNPC act made it possible for GMD NNPC to get approvals from either FEC or the Petroleum Minister or the President. The phrase Minister of State was never mentioned in the NNPC Act. This has been stated over and over.

Kachikwu that initially said he was sidelined with regards to contracts, has not come out openly to say that he didn't nominate 9 firms for crude oil contracts, after NNPC made its 2nd statement. That is why I keep telling you to go back and read everything again. With an open mind, if possible. Kachikwu has handled this whole thing badly, and it could backfire on him, if care is not taken.

Provide the NNPC Act that says the GMD can get approvals from the President or Petroleum Minister let us examine it. This penchant of throwing any phrase about hoping it sticks needs to stop. If Osinbajo needed Kachikwu's input for personnel changes why would he not need the same input for contract approvals?

If Osinbajo did not say he approved those contracts without Kachikwu's input so when did Kachikwu give his input? Atleast you have conceded that Baru did not seek Kachikwu's input. This is the truly cyclical argument.

If NNPC claimed that Kachikwu made recommendations on 9 companies after his input was sought after - then it infers that at the point where Baru let that happen he was following due process. So what is your excuse for the times he did not follow it, after all the claim now that he could bypass Kachikwu according to the law can be rubbished by this particular claim. I hope you see the flagrant contradiction.

Kachikwu insisted that Baru was picking and choosing when to get the board involved and when not to. NNPC gives us one example of such a time when they requested and got his input but remain mum on the other instances he raised and you are telling me to read it again? LOL. You are making me laugh.

And when would Kachikwu refute this claim of these 9 companies if it is untrue? NNPCs rejoinder just got released today or his perceived silence until tomorrow means he is complicit and if he gainsays their claims tomorrow you would look for another excuse to shift the goal post in your bid to defend something that is laughably illegal.
