You are very silly

Professor Ambrose Alli studied in the United kingdom and was a medical doctore before he came back home to Nigeria,Edo state to contest and won the gubernatorial elections. He was convicted by General Muhammadu Buhari. Because Ambrose Alli did not commit any fraud,all the accusations were false. Till date,if u go to ekpoma, the roads he constructed then in the 1980s is still there intact.

Who Nigeria this thing Buhari criminal

omonnakoda:


It was just Buhari's bigotry at work
How many of his brothers did he convict?

Hundreds

The military armed robbers.

100 years imprisonment, that is the new NIGERIA I hope for. But now looters are celebrated.

What a pity!

Lipscomb:

Not a very nice thing to say. Ambrose Ali was the best Govt Bendel State had. The indomine generation will not understand that. He introduced free education including books and at all levels to the state. He made education a dream come through for the common man.

Lipscomb:
I wonder why thief always associate with Edo people.

Wetin dey worry you?

Anyone who attended school under him where education was free of charge will attest to his policies. Buhari is simply trying to atone for a grevious sin he committed against Ambrose Alli and his family. Not just free, even textbooks and exercise books marked "property of Bendel State government".

This stupid comment shows Nairaland has been overtaken by small children still wearing nappies without knowing their left from their right. They never knew how great a country we had until this man and his military people entered and destroyed everything.

GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT. HE WASN'T A THIEF. HE WAS CONVICTED FOR MISAPPROPRIATION BACK WHEN 'MISAPPROPRIATON' ACTUALLY MEAN'T UTILIZING FUNDS FROM A BUDGETED ITEM TO AN UNBUDGETED BUT FAR MORE URGENT ITEM. NOT NOWADAYS WHEN IT'S ACTUALLY A CODEWORD FOR STEALING.
BTW HE WAS THE FIRST GOVERNOR TO ESTABLISH A STATE UNIVERSITY.

MASTERCHIEF0847:
The man stole money while in office simple.

Really? He sent his children to govt schools . His house in his village is basic. It was the people around him that were stealing. He had a vision for the state unfortunately Nigerians don’t like progress.

It's only in Nigeria that well known terrorists and corrupt leaders are granting state pardon to convicted innocent dead people what a country.

Over a billion Naira indeed!

I don’t understand what all this people are talking about, I’ve not seen any decent governor than Ambrose Ali. The federal government then, starved him of funds to pay the state workers. What was he supposed to do?

.

Your entire write up almost brought tears to my eyes
So apt
I've so much to say but I don't want to sound judgmental, abusive and uncivilised

Your write up reflects a true Bendelite/Mid-Westerner

Truly you asked
Where are those who lived in that era
Those who benefitted from his regime
Those who know the truth? ??

This shows that on this forum at least there are not many people from Mid-West born between 1974 or even 64 who know the place of Mid-West in the history of the entire Nigeria, who want to speak up with dignity and not the misplaced pride of some other regions and states or tribes...

Sad...
Some even said the region is known for cultism, prostitution and thieves
Hmm what an insult, what lie, what bigotry...

But it's not fitting for me to answer such or indeed any comment cause it will form a thread of itself

Bottomline is that the late Prof Ambrose Ali was a man of integrity and good works. He said he was innocent of the charges and I believe him. He does not need Buhari's pardon but would have given him one if he where to be alive.
As for Igbinedion paying the fine, that's story for another day. God reward his intentions.
For Buhari believing the charges against Ali and turning his eyes against Ganduje those of the other regions especially his side who truly committed crimes and fraud against their states in that 2nd republic (79 - 83) may God judge him.
For those who believe and those who know the truth and deliberately refused to speak out, may their cases be as it was for Ali but with mercy.
For Obaseki who engineered this and now the Ali family would benefit from financial gains acfruing to past governors, may your intention be revealed and rewarded accordingly.
For me, the mercy of God.
For all of us truth and justice
