And you forgot to show us how your post altered or changed the fact that the PDP and OBJ created the problem to start with by granting him AMNESTY, the same AMNESTY he's using against Nigeria till today to win court judgement, the same AMNESTY that any government or the current government can not change so of what relevance was the 2012 GEJ rubbish you are talking about?

How do you grant the looter eternal AMNESTY and then try to go against your own AMNESTY?

Talk about medicine after death.

So the dude is about to be richer, who's a fault is that? Do you want me to remind you or give you the answer?, yes I will, OBJ and the PDP clan or corruption.

Tbf, Sen. Bagudu got his amnesty under OBJ. It was agreed to in a UK court. Seems FG is bound to the agreement whether they like it or not.
What is disturbing is the fact that the "Distinguished Excellency" will be allowed to keep close to €100M (~N40B)! For doing what exactly ?
If you want to know the source of our modern democratic crises across board, look no further than OBJ's administration. All kinds of egregious precedents were set during that time, the negative effects of which continue to haunt us.
Am grateful 2 ur understanding, bt i wonder what's wrong wit d sense of reasoning amongst nigerians. It was stated clearly in d pretext above dat d FG is acting accordingly 2 d agreement reached in the UK court betwen d OBJ administration nd d governor of kebbi. If some nigerians are nt insane, den why saying rubbish about 'BUHARI' wen it is obvious he has notin 2 say or do as regard 2 d agreement made by OBJ administration. My fellow nigerians lack brains.

I honestly do not blame Buhari . I blame Nigerians who put him there. It shows how foolish Nigerians are , yet they claim to be wise.
Countries that are civilized and have wise people don’t allow evil , corrupt and satanic people to lead them. Infact , in a civilized environment what is happening in Nigeria will lead to civil unrest everywhere . Nigeria has the highest population of fools and mentally retarded people in the world.They are all singing praises of their enemies who have kept them perpetually poor and deprived.

I'm shocked reading this! This is the worst regime ever after Abacha's. Imagine Nigeria's wealth going to one family and this guy is still suing the country for the common wealth. Shame on APC and all their 30k footsoldiers. Shame on Buhari and Bagudu! Shame on the people of Kebbi state! Shame on OBJ! Shame on the Abachas!

Obasanjo's agreement is binding on Buhari, no doubt but I don't expect an honest government to just hand over proceeds of crime to the criminal without a fight.

Hope you understand better now.

BTW, it was not an amnesty, it was more or less a plea bargain. What the Buhari govt should have done was to hold that since he had sued the Nigerian govt, the plea bargain was now useless, make efforts to impeach him like OBJ did for Alams and get him arrested. But of course we know he's a sacred cow.


It was not a plea bargain, it was a settlement where both agreed to do this and that and also agreed not to do this and that which the courts agreed to and entered into judgment, it was a binding judgment that both parties can never never altered no matter what. The FG under OBJ specifically granted him amnesty, they relinquished the FG's rights to institute any future legal actions against him.

The corrupt man already won a case against the government based on that settlement and court-sanctioned agreement because it was a legally binding agreement.

So they want to hand over the money to Abacha's partner in crime so they could reloot it and share among themselves

Money that belongs to all Nigerians .

Buhari is the most corrupt President in Nigerian history.

https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/353583-how-kebbi-governor-abubakar-bagudu-was-arrested-in-america.html

Kindly follow that link. It was a plea bargain. Under it, he was supposed to continue his trial in Nigeria after he was repatriated back in 2009. That's why Jonathan's govt tried to start the case in 2012. So, the question now is why Malami the Kebbi state charge and bail lawyer is trying to cover up his brother with a 2003 agreement.

Court decisions can be challenged. Why didn't Nigerian government just hand over the billions to P&ID even though obviously Nigerian officials used the company to defraud the country? The argument here would be that it won't be in the interest of the common man in Nigeria that is ravaged by poverty illiteracy and disease to be so shafted by their elites. Another argument would be that the point needs to be made to aspiring looters that crime doesn't pay. The government should look at trail of the cash, over-invoicing, direct fraudulent transfers, illicit cash movements, etc may be uncovered. This could help the case. Even if it fails, the government may have convinced its citizens it has tried its best to fight their corner..

We have 37 Governments in Nigeria. Trump should please authorise The US Treasury Secretary to share Nigerian Money in his possession into 37 equal parts, grant Visas to the 37 Governments to come to US to authorise Transfer into their respective State Treasuries.
