BAYO AKINLOYE and TOBI AWORINDE write on some of the biggest incidents and moments that shaped the past year in Nigeria.
Patience Jonathan’s 16 bank accounts
Regarded as Nigeria’s feistiest – past or present – first lady, the wife of former President Goodluck Jonathan, Patience, has refused to exit the limelight following her infamous ‘diarisgod’ refrain in the wake of the Chibok girls’ kidnap by Boko Haram. The legal fireworks between her and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission that spilled into 2017 from 2016 were tentatively resolved in December when the Federal High Court in Abuja reversed its order made on May 30, to freeze Mrs. Jonathan’s 16 bank accounts.
Last month, the Federal High Court in Lagos froze the sum of N350m found in the Stanbic IBTC Bank account of a company, AM-PM Global Network Limited, said to have links with Mrs. Jonathan. The EFCC had claimed that the N350m was part of a sum of N1,206,950,000, being proceeds of ex-first lady’s ‘unlawful enrichment’ kept in the company’s Diamond Bank account.
Melaye’s certificate scandal
Few lawmakers, apart from Bukola Saraki, Abdulmumin Jibrin and Alli Ndume, have courted more controversies than Dino Melaye in the National Assembly.
The senator was involved in a certificate scandal that many thought would prove to be his last straw until the management of the Ahmadu Bello University came to his rescue by sending its vice chancellor to show the Senate proofs that the lawmaker graduated from the school.
Melaye, a one-time anti-corruption activist was accused by an online news medium,Sahara Reporters of not graduating from ABU. One of his colleagues, Senator Ali Ndume – who eventually was sent on suspension by the Senate – called for the upper legislative chamber to probe Melaye for forgery and perjury.
Melaye had the last laugh though he might not lay as much claim to being a graduate of Harvard University and the London School of Economics and Political Science as he did with being an ABU graduate because the two foreign institutions denied his claims of taking their degree courses.
Kachikwu’s leaked memo, fuel scarcity
If the emergence of Ibe Kachikwu, first as the Group Managing Director of the NNPC and later as the Minister of State Petroleum Resources was greeted with optimism, his leaked memo to President Muhammadu Buhari and current fuel scarcity across the nation have left not a few Nigerians to view him with scepticism and pessimism.
Kachikwu, had, in the leaked memo to the President, accused the incumbent GMD of NNPC, Maikanti Baru, of insubordination, alleging that against the rules, Baru awarded major contracts worth $25bn without reviewing or discussing them with him or the NNPC board.
But in the end, Buhari and Baru said Kachikwu had only cried wolf. Nigerian political forum is a discussion group that discuss nigerian issues on politics,social and economic importance.add me on whatsapp-08062380296 |
