Kofi Anan was the Secretary General of UN. He was not the President of UN.
The President is only used in the Security Council and its chosen among the members countries of the Security Council.

Aside from the widely reported allegations that Alex Badeh misappropriated some funds while serving as the Chief of Defence Staff under former President Jonathan. Many do not know other things about the man. Alexander Sabundu Badeh was a Air Chief Marshal and a former Chief of Defence staff before he met the untimely death in a gunshot attack along Keffi – Abuja expressway on the 19th of December in 2018. There are many things people do not know about the man, and here are some of the facts about him.

FACT 1: Alex Sabundu Badeh was born on the 7th of November, in 1957, in a small town called Vimtim, Adamawa State. Adamawa state is also the state of origin for Former Vice President and Current PDP Presidential Candidate, Alh. Atiku Abubarka.

FACT 6: Badeh initiated various technological breakthroughs, and one of such is the initiation of OLE 1 & 2, in which GULMA 1 UAV was manufactured as the first locally produced drone in Nigeria.

Not holding brief for anybody. My only annoyance is APC is not the party to rescue Nigeria. They are same bunch of crooks like the PDP. They demonized a fine officer like Badeh for reasons we know. He was corrupt yes. Just like Buratai who was Director of Finance in the army during the PDP era. Who is deceiving who?

I'm not encouraging corruption but if all the acclaimed recoveries made has not made any difference to the common in the street then there is little or nothing to keep chasing men with our shops locked down

1.Problem is,most of the loot is the subject of court cases. Till they get sorted out....govt can't use them

2.Then before that...there is the investigaiton...particularly the bit where you separate the clean money from the dirty money. (Some looters loot money them mix it up with their legit funds).

3.Even then, loot may not be enough to change matters PLUS...what do you mean by having an impact on the poor man ? If it means sharing money like Bubu's trader moni, or the 5000 naira plan...that's money that is here today, gone tomorrow....

The level of present divisiveness in the country is alarming! I wonder if NYSC and other government policies have done enough in integrating us.

I am of the opinion that Oluwaseun Osewa should do something to discourage more divisiveness in Nigeria via this platform of his.

Typical afonja. When Tinubu is still living with 80% of Lagos wealth. All they do is attack Biafrans and Northern Christians, and spare all Muslims. This guy is not your typical quota system Northern generals. He was a bright, high IQ military officer comparable to WestPoint graduates in USA. He would have had a fruitful career had he not joined Nigerian military.

FACT 10 - He stole billions from the money meant for buying arms and welfare of the military, THEN DID INTERVIEWS COMPLAINING THAT HE INHERITED A MILITARY WITHOUT WEAPONS AND MATERIALS TO FIGHT THE ENEMY!

FACT 11 - HE DIED ON HIS WAY BACK FROM A FARM HE PROBABLY BOUGHT USING SOME OF THE STOLEN MONEY!

FACT 12 - IF HE AND OTHERS HAD NOT STOLEN MONEY FROM THE MILITARY AND SECURITY BUDGET, THOSE GUNMEN WHO SHOT HIM MAY NOT BEEN ABLE TO OPERATE BECAUSE THE SECURITY SERVICES WILL BE BETTER EQUIPPED TO TAKE THEM OUT OF CIRCULATION!

Motley fool!

So because Tinubu is sitting on Lagos wealth Badeh's thievery should be excused.

Things you don't know about Badeh..

He evacuated his family with NAF helicopter from his village after which, BH eventually attacked and killed hundreds of people

For him to evacuate his family at that speed rate, means he knew both BH members and Sponsors but decided to keep mute.

His wife and and children are not certain of attending his burial cos they are on DSS list( Their accounts was used for fraudulent transaction)

Finally, which is the most sad part of it, he died without returning all our yams
I concur

Don't mind flat head. He want to turn the topic to ethnic fight, when they lack point to give in their argument they turn it to fight, he mention Tinubu as a thief, yes the Yorubas are fully aware and Tinubu also know about it, if all their south east Governor can do what Tinubu has done in Lagos I don't think flat head will leave east for Lagos, half of flat head generation are in Lagos.
