Buhari put him there to continue his probe from the 80s to know if he is still a thief...

That rhythm pupils sing on the assembly:

Parent listen to your children,

for we are the leaders of tomorrow,

try to pay our school fees,

and give us sound education!

This song should be abolished, and wiped out of the memories of any child who has sang and believed in it.

Someone who held a position in 1983, is still been appointed in 2019. What a shame, what a country.

Nigeria is FINISHED.

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.

Bad belle ppl, make una go park one side; military regime of that time cannot be compared with present day democratic standards; when in those days the accused was presumed guilty until he proven innocent.

Besides, even if he were convicted, he could have only been barred from holding public office for a maximum period of 10yrs - do the sums, 1983 - date (2019) = 36 yrs.

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.

Maitama Sule is different from Maitama Yussuf.

Maitama Sule was Minister in Shagari Cabinet. He died recently, he is the one that cocks his hat sideways.

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.


As for the bus:
If you think the inscription on that Bus meant some Muslims are against any and every type of innovation you can actually do something about it.
You can go and spend one hour looking at bush.
Or look for wall, the one they have not painted or plastered. Hit your head, no sense will be lost. You cannot lose what you did not have.
Third option, cry blood.
Nobody will give you free education when you are enjoying your ignorance.
And no, thunder will not fire you; you are too small for that level of attention.

The worst thing that can happen to a country is a product of corruption - nepotism to ascend to the highest political position. I do not care about ninnies embezzling money but a dunce such as Buhari in the position of power.
