“Atiku has been finished as a candidate. He cannot participate

Obasanjo government has already "finished" the Vice President politically”

The rich hide expensive four-wheel vehicles

Barely two weeks after the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) released the list of people it claimed to have indicted over alleged corruption, expensive automobiles like Hummer jeep and others have disappeared from the streets of Abuja.
The fear of the Mallam Nuhu Ribadu-led EFCC is said to have forced several moneybags in the federal capital to withdraw their expensive automobiles from the roads.

The Nation’s findings in Abuja showed that many of the "oppressors" are now hiding their state of the art vehicles in their villages while others have taken theirs to other towns and villages. For example, at the National Assembly car parks where such expensive vehicles were hitherto a common sight, the reverse is now the case.

Many of the federal lawmakers, who were previously riding some of these big and expensive cars, have suddenly gone low profile. Similarly, Hummer jeeps and other very expensive vehicles, which were common sight in high-brow areas like Asokoro, Maitama, Ministers’ Drive and Wuse Two among others, are no longer visible.

A top politician confided in our correspondent in Abuja that he had taken two of his expensive cars to his village where they are being firmly kept in his garage.
