see you, you have someone fighting for your future and you are are not appreciate. Firstly, is the offender committed the crime, Yes? The punishment most be served, secondly, I do not agree that the property should be taken by Federal Government because the said money belong to Abia state and it be returned to them. God bless Nigeria.

What kinda English is this?

“How can you say a company (Slok) that has been in existence before he became governor should be wind up? Does it make sense?.”

If he is guilty, he should be jailed..but the slok company should be left alone to avoid sending back the employees to the labour market!
This is what I have been expecting
SLOK his Company shouldn't be on the news for the wrong reasons

Say what you like about Buhari and his leadership style or lack of... But, this is the first time in our 20 year old democracy I have seen this commitment to anti corruption...

This is a feather to this administration's battered cap... I give them kudos, and pray they increase the drive.

I am from both Lagos and Ogun States and I will be VERY happy the day Tinubu and Obasanjo are both jailed for looting Lagos and Nigeria blind such that so many Nigerians live in abject poverty and Nigeria is fast becoming the suicide capital of the world due to the hopelessness of the hapless common man which is a direct result of corruption.

Most of the people who bad mouth Buhari were either not born when PMB was in power in 1984 or they were not old enough t be politically aware in 1984 or they are just plainly mischievous and/or tribalistic because if you were old enough in 1984 or you shun laziness / tribalism and OBJECTIVELY research Buhari's tenure if 1984, you will see that Buhari was and is still a Messiah sent to deliver the common man from the Banditry of those intent on impoverishing the common man with their corruption.

That's why Babangida toppled him and put him under house arrest for 3 years even denying him to go bury his mother because IBB had to move as Buhari was at the time trying top military officers for corruption.

Kudos to Buhari. The gloves are off now that he doesn't need the votes / support of the corrupt elite.

GAME ON

THE IRONY OF POLITICS..

And I ask again, what ll it profit me to celebrate the downfall of my own brother? What developmental strides will it bring to our dear state if OUK goes to jail and FEDERAL government takes over SLOK worth well over $330 millions according to FORBES? I am not trying to justify mismanagement of public funds or abuse of public office but how many of our politicians today in Abia can raise their heads up high and make a proclamation that he or she has NEVER in any way mismanaged public funds no matter how small?

The way most of our people are celebrating OUK'S predicaments, I begin to wonder if it wasn't this same OUK that they were all praising and worshiping years back? no be MMIRI NYERE ENYI again? That his jingles were never stopped being sponsored by most of our politicians of today?

It's so unfortunate that some politicians and most of our people have such a short memory that all we remember or are after is our loyalty to the present power holder, invariably, if anything happens tomorrow and the present becomes a past, everything about this our present so called loyalty changes too.

Most of us has forgotten that it was still this same OUK who stood his feet against all odds and made sure that Ochendo was given governorship even when Ochendo was in detention, without OUK making the former Biochemistry Dept HOD a local government chairman, would we all be here today supporting Dr Okezie Ikpeazu?

If same OUK didn't discover Elder Erondu Jnr Erondu and made him local government chairman at a very young age, even as a bachelor who just left school, would we all be here shouting "ALL HAIL THE EMPOWERMENT EMPIRE"? If same OUK didn't use a former Uniben lecturer as his Deputy, Who would have been the NMA AGHA NDI IGBO of today?

It amazes me that POLITICS is being played the way it is being played but then, what can I say or do?

For all have sinned and fallen short of his glory but then, our GOOD LORD has still kept us all. Like Pilate in the Bible did, I have washed my hands, let him that is spotless, cast the 1st stone for me myself and I, I sincerely want to see OUK a free man soon. That's my own STAND. though this is not a justification to support his dids according to the law court but then, it ll be an anathema for me to join and shout crucify him! Crucify him!!

I know that my people as usual will copy and paste this link to anybody whom they feel that I should be loyal to as prove that I am an OUK boy to deny me anything or political favours but then, it's ok...I don't mind.. but it ll also pass a message to the leader that same you who has forwarded my post to him, will also deny him if by tomorrow and the table turns around.

Yours sincerely

Ezechukwu

Timipre Sylva: A well known financier and supporter of the APC administration of President Muhammadu Buhari. Alleged to have looted ₦19.7 billion. Was facing trial before Justice A. Y. Mohammed of the Federal High Court, Abuja. However, two days after President Buhari was sworn in, the new APC government WITHDREW the charges preferred against Sylva on June 1, 2015 and on October 3, 2018, the EFCC returned to Sylva, 48 houses seized from him during the administration of former president, Goodluck Jonathan in 2013 to him.

How are the mighty fallen! Leaders will give account of their stewardship some day either on earth or in heaven. This is a great lesson for the political class, power is transient. Nigeria will be great someday. Ambassador Kehinde Tawede says so.

tribalism will never help anybody, until Nigerians stop hating each other because of tribe there will be no development, instead of judging someone for doing something wrong you are pushing it on all the easterners, you saying it tell me where there is no corruption in this country, lets help fight evil instead of blaming tribe.

Bro...i was built in love ,went to school when religious tolerance ,CRK (christian religious knowledge) and IRK (islamic religious knowledge ) were taught simultaneously in school....and i am an igbo man.With the above combination ,you will know why i said what i said...I cant be coerced into continuous fighting of a war i wasnt existing when it was first fought or hate someone from a different tribe from mine,because i was told its right.

My training as an Igbo tribe is that we patiently use the little resources we have as a capital and build it to something big.

My question remains as small as the 5 igbo stated are ,are they collecting allocations or not? and what have they done with it?
