Crooked Kingibe just secured a generous pension for life

There are very few highly despicable and hated Nigerian politicians than Baba-Gana Kingibe and that is saying a lot for a Nigerian politician. Now this highly degenerate individual who has crawled back into the corridors of power like a sleuthing snake that he is, is being awarded an accolade that he is no way deserving of. But this after all is a Buhari govt where the owerllian rule applies that is where saints are condemned and criminals like Abacha are celebrated so it did not surprise me that a con man like Kingibe will find a place within the very heart of Buhari's govt.

This is the same Kingibe that never for once fought for the joint mandate of June 12 but rather quickly absorbed himself into the Abacha regime - the same regime that truncated that mandate.

Kingibe will disappear from Nigeria immediately after Abacha's death only to lobby his way into the Yaradua administration as SGF only to be abruptly rightfully sacked by Yaradua himself.

How does this new elevation of Kingibe to GCON benefit him? For one, he can go around parading himself as a former VP and also find his way to attend all future NEC meetings. But by far the best thing to accrue to Kingibe is that he gets to live out the rest of his degenerate hedonistic life at the expense of tax payers as he will now be entitled to annual pensions and perks that a retired VP enjoys.

The desperation by APC lead administration to convince Nigerians is ridiculous and embarrassing..if your Government is working you don't need this silly propaganda.. A good product sell itself....

Security 0, socio-economic empowerment 0, Tribal integration 0 , Tribalism 99%..

“That title is reserved for ONLY a person sworn-in as president. Abiola was never sworn-in, so how did he get the title of GCFR posthumously?
“The presidency has shot itself on the foot because he would be forced to pay all the entitlements of a former president to Abiola’s family posthumously."

An Abo.ki with a small radio selling chewing stick or lafinda has more political acumen than a Southerner with PhD in political science.

A WAEC-less Buhari is showing OBJ, GEJ, Tinubu and others how it's done. Years from now Zombies will count this meaningless ego massage gesture as one of Bubu's great achievements. grin cheesy

ONE NIGERIA!

Kano and Katsina states have the highest numbers of newly recruited police officers, a list of successful applicants released by the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has shown.

About 37, 000 candidates from across Nigeria had written the examination for the 2018 police constable recruitment, and only 5, 233 were shortlisted.
Kano has 308 candidates, followed by Katsina with 238.

Oyo is in a third place with 225, and at 42, the federal capital territory (FCT) has the least number of candidates.

North-west - 1, 300

South-west - 921

North-central - 823

South-south - 779

North-East - 759

South-east - 651

MY TAKE

One Nigeria!

The curious thing is that they said they set EXAMS that produced these shortlisted recruits....so we’re now to believe that the North West beat all other regions in the JAMB-administered exams? Really laughable!

One Nigeria!

So as it stands under Buhari, Kano and Katsina have the highest number of people in DSS, Immigration and now Police recruitments. And you know what this means? They’re set up to produce the largest number of highest ranking officers in years to come so they’re assured of control for generations.

One Nigeria!

No country can exist with this sort of shameless enthronement of ethnic-driven mediocrity and clear attempt at dominance. Such lopsidedness runs against nature itself and will not stand for long, not because we want or do not want it to be so but because nature simply abhors lopsidedness and will make efforts to right itself.

I hope when the natural consequences of acts like this come, we will be able to bear it. I hope.".

TonyeBarcanista:
POINT OF NOTE:

1. That Kingibe did not fight for the mandate still doesn't invalidate the fact that he was the presumed joint winner of the mandate and presumed Vice President-elect.

2. Since MKO is awarded GCFR (and rightly so) it is only necessary to award Kingibe GCON.

3. That Kingibe is GCON doesn't mean he was a former Vice President. He was Never VP of Nigeria, as one can only claim to occupy the office after taking oath of office.

4. Kingibe is not the only non-ex VP GCON, David Mark and Aliko Dangote are also GCON, yet not one of them have been VP or former VP.

5. GCON award is not equivalent to Vice Presidency, and holders of GCON are not entitled to any monetary benefit and pensions.

6. A former VP is not entitled to membership of National Executive Committee or Council of State.

Meanwhile, I think we should move beyond this subject...
tnx dude 4d intellectual response. U saved me d trouble. I don't no when GCON became equivalent to Vice president

Alex Ekweme is GCON, he earned it after he took oath of office as Vice President though he was formally awarded in 1998/2003.

I am not sure if Ojukwu was given any National award but I know that Chinua Achebe was first given OFR and was nominated for CFR which he turned down.

The two yoruba awardees,MKO and Gani were persecuted and jailed by northern govts.
One came out of prison and died later while the other never made it out alive. He died in detention and his entire business were virtually destroyed. Nobody hears of Concord newspaper or other business owned by Abiola anymore not even his sons.
But today,simply cos the same north needs sw votes in the coming election,they have conferred the high awards on the dead yorubas they persecuted and tortured and whole legacies,Abiola's, they destroyed.
Now kingibe will live to enjoy his Gcon while Mko and Gani remain in the grave,turning at the the grand deception being played out again by the same people that truncated June 12.

Ojukwu does not need any Nigerian award. His place in the hearts of genuine Igbos and lovers of freedom is very secure and more than adequate.

[quote author=TonyeBarcanista post=68257956]POINT OF NOTE

Kingibe s GCON is as a result of reflections on the annulled elections which he was running mate. It is tied to an election in which he was to be VP therefore his award is not honorary like that of Dangote. Barring another annulment, he should be entitled to some rewards and perks, so I stand with the man you quoted.
From moral point of view, he gave up his rights by refusing to fight against the annulment especially when the whole country was fighting against it. He further erred by romancing with those who annulled the elections. Morally he is under serving of any honours, and ought to be stripped of any honors he had before his treasonable transgressions.

Buhari is repositioning for 2019 and that's all. This is an attempt to win the yorubas with a move of ridicule.
