In 1983, Maitama-Yusuf was accused of corruption by the Muhammadu Buhari military regime of 1983 to 1985. However, he went into exile to avoid prosecution. BY SAHARA REPORTERSMAY 06, 2019 President Muhammadu Buhari has ratified the appointment of Bello Maitama-Yusuf, former Minister of Commerce, as member of the Board of Directors of the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC). Auwal Sankara, Special Assistant on New Media to the Executive Governor of Jigawa State, confirmed the appointment, saying Maitama-Yusuf was nominated by Muhammad Badaru Abubakar, Governor of the state. "In recognition of his hard work, resilience and steadfastness in the progress of APC and development of Jigawa State and Nigeria at large, the Governor of Jigawa State Alhaji Muhammad Badaru Abubakar has facilitated the appointment of Senator Bello Maitama Yusuf as a Member of the Board of Directors of the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC)," Sanakar wrote on Facebook. The board was inaugurated on Thursday May 2. Maitama-Yusuf's appointment letter read: “Pursuant to section 5 of the Nigerian Railway Corporation Act cap. N129, LFN2004, and all powers enabling the Honourable Minister of Transportation in that behalf, and consequent upon your nomination by the governor of Jigawa State, I am pleased to inform you of your appointment by the Honourable Minister, as a member of the Directors of Nigerian Railway Corporation. "Your tenure of appointment shall commence on the date of inauguration of the board and shall subsist at the pleasure of the President of the Federal republic of Nigeria, pursuant to Section 8 of the above-referenced Act Maitama-Yusuf, 74, served as Minister of Internal Affairs in 1978 and later as Minister of Commerce in 1982. He served as senator representing Jigawa South-West at the National Assembly between 1999 and 2007, initially on the platform of the All Nigeria People's Party (ANPP), but he later defected to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). He also contested for the governorship of Jigawa State in 2007. In 1983, Maitama-Yusuf was accused of corruption by the Muhammadu Buhari military regime of 1983 to 1985. However, he went into exile to avoid prosecution. Source: http://saharareporters.com/2019/05/06/buhari-appoints-maitama-yusuf-—-same-man-he-accused-corruption-80s-—-board-railway 3 Likes 1 Share

Not surprised though! As long as you are for Buhari, your sins are forgiven. Oshiomhole said the same thing that as long as you port to APC, all your sins become the thing of the past. It will only take a corruption to appoint another corrupt person. 90 Likes 3 Shares |

Is there any sane Nigerian who is surprised at Buhari's shenanigans, while claiming to be fighting corruption? BUHARI IS, NO DOUBT, THE BIGGEST YAHOO YAHOO BOY IN THE WHOLE WORLD TODAY. Here is one of the extremely corrupt Northerners whom BUHARI sent abroad then, so as to make it appear like the men absconded to evade arrest and possible prosecution by his tyrannical junta. Abegiiiii... I wouldn't want to lose concentration over my studies, our final exams are around the corner. I only drove into Nairaland to read this news with our SCHOOL BUS. PS... BUHARI IS, INDEED, THE NEXT DEVIL. 83 Likes 4 Shares

Must it continue to be all these old recycled people, what happened to young intelligent smart thinking people both in diaspora and in the country. How do we keep using same old people and expecting different results, not possible. Are you planning to do a roof parapet?

Sahara reporters and gutter journalism, history distortion and fake news. Buhari did not accuse anybody of corruption in the 80's. It was the people themselves that writes petition to the Military Tribunal, who in turns bring the accused in for questioning and prosecution under the military rule. |
