We are doomed as a community with folks like throwback.

We are doomed when everyone is lynched physically and electronically because someone makes an allegation without any single evidence connecting the accused.

You have a brain, you were educated, please use it to be rational and objective in your submissions.

I used to wonder why Nigeria could not also adopt a jury style of criminal justice, until I encountered many irrational minds on Nairaland and realised the doom it would spell if such minds were allowed to pass judgement in a matter that deals with available evidence.

Someone should sue sahara reporters for 100 million in court. Its boring the way the accuse innocent people without tangible evidence.

This rubbish must stop.

So you admit your criticism is just an avenue to vent your frustration that a corrupt and lying regime was sacked by another that has turned out not to be any better?

So you admit you are deliberately playing dumb and stupid due to your partisan prejudice?

Shame on you and your wasted education.

Your father should have spent his money eating suya.

Since you cannot move on with your existence, your grandchildren will also inherit your agony over a useless Jonathan that was duly and democratically sacked by the majority who found him incompetent.

As for me, I await the evidence that the accuser has yet to provide before I can join the chorus of the mob.

I didnt read beyond the first line.

PrecisionFx:


I didnt read beyond the first line.

Because money that should have been spent on Suya was wasted on an emotional mind that will wail over a loss till the agony is shared even by the grandchildren.

You already inadvertently revealed why you rant and criticise, so no point debating someone who has already admitted to being in the offside position.

Did you read the thread at all?, Incase you don't, here is an excerpt answering your question.

It is worthy of note that as a serving Minister, Dr Pantami’s salaries and allowances fall below his earnings as a Professor at the International University Madinah Saudi Arabia, where he still holds the record of being the first Nigerian to lecture at that level. He only returned to Nigeria out of the zeal to contribute his quota to national development.

Sharap, SirLiar reporters keep dishing false information like they did 2 days back on Ajimobi assets. Here is someone easily debunking their falsehood.

Some of you are grown dummies. Are you aware that ANYBODY can claim to have designed the house??! Why didn’t this “designer” show us the interior plan which only him should have? SECONDLY do you think people who steal public money buy/build houses by themselves? They buy it through two or more secondary sources to make it a bit untraceable if you follow the paper trail.

You’ve had 60 years to gain wisdom but you’re still jerking.

Cries and lies. All you typed above are stark assumptions. So you’re trying to tell us he took “lesser pay” to come and be a minister because this country needs someone so bad and NOBODY else could do the job but him? So he had to sacrifice his job that pays more Lmaooo some of you are on monkey tail.

If Sahara reporters want us to believe them, they should provide a document that linked the minister and the house...biko, let's use our senses. Though common sense is commonly uncommon.

Re: Isa Pantami: I Haven’t Bought A Single House Anywhere Since I Became Minister by AnanseK(m): 12:16pm On Jul 04, 2020
I want to accept Dr. Pantami’s version and to reject the claim by Sahara reporters as hearsay and rumors but I need to have these points clarified:

1. The denial from Pantami’s spokesperson seem to be concentrating on - “ Dr. Pantami did not buy any house since he became Minister. This is suggesting that he bought a houses before he became a Minister. Can we please know those times and the number of houses bought and their costs.

2. Dr. Pantami became a Minister in 2019 ( only a year ago) but he was the Director General for The National Information Technology Development ( NITD) as from 2016 until his appointment as Minister. Did he buy any houses when he was the DG?

3. Did he declare his assets before he was sworn in as DG in 2016 and when he was sworn in as Minister last year?

4. What was his earning as University Professor in the University Of Medina.

5. It was mentioned that he was also a businessman. Nigerians will want to know what type of business and his earnings from that. The same can be applied to any public servant to ensure accountability.

6. Please note that Dr. Pantami is a public servant all these questions are relevant and very important. They should even be answered without the public asking them. As a corruption fighter ( mentioned by his spokesman) Dr. Pantami needs to be more transparent than most.

7. Remember that the Honorable Minister is also a great Preacher and a role model for millions of faithfuls . He has the duty to adequately defend the hitherto upright conduct and the Godliness he represents. We are waiting.

You are wrong
It is the duty of the plaintiff to provide logical evidences
Further exhibits would be provided by the investigating body.

The defendant just need to defend it all with counter evidences and exhibitions
