Let's not be emotional about this. Yakubu Gowon was in Ethiopia attending a meeting when he was overthrown. So how did he then move half of CBN? Did he come back to Nigeria to tell the new military govt to give him half of the CBN treasury? Impossible. Bring up your own "superior" logic.
The guy said the man LEFT NIGERIA with half of CBN money. Actually, Gowon went to the UK FROM ETHIOPIA after he learned of his ouster. So it doesn't add up.


MODIFIED: For all of you quoting me misunderstanding my logic, it's the lawmaker who didn't use the right words. He said Yakubu 'left Nigeria with half of CBN' meaning the looting was after he was overthrown and was done at once. He should have said "Yakubu stole half of the CBN while he was the head of state".

Delusions is when you believe anybody who's not a Nigerian has a fact.
Ask yourself in which country in the world have the corrupt Nigerian leaders deposited their large looted funds since 1960 the same UK.
You should be wondering: What does this British MP stand to gain by besmirching the name of a former Nigerian head of state? What does it profit him in putting himself on the line like this?

Unlike most of our so-called leaders here, the Europeans are very conscious of human rights. This man will not place himself on the line of fire without having unequivocal proof of his assertions because statements like the one he made can give rise to so many things, one of which is lawsuit for defamation of character or character assassination.

Same way Cameron referred to Nigerians as fantastically corrupt. You think they make such statements for talking sake? These guys know the depth of corruption in Nigeria even more than Nigerians.

you are Igbo but you did not know why Ojukwu fought war with his people against Nigeria. because if you did, you would not tag him a war lord. If you care to know more about your history, I can send you some links so as to educate you, maybe, you can have a change or mind on why it was necessary to leave Nigeria. Dont be deceived, the war was brought to Biafra, Ojukwu did not instigate any war. he was defending his people.

Donkey, British politicians are human beings. They tell lies like other humans and other politicians the world over. Your education was useless and counterproductive if all it takes is a different skin colour to have you trusting without evidence the words of another human.

Mumu.

I'm sure if a white man appeared in your house and accused your dad of being a child rapist, you would instantly believe him without evidence. "After all he is a European" in your words.

DONKEY.

The major point is, anything u know u have the stomach to start be ready to finish it.

East held it's coup appointed leaders to other regions, no much issue no war no disobedience.

North does a counter coup and appoints leaders to other regions, east refused to step down, that's how it can be summarized.

Gowon was overthrown why attending the OAU summit in Kampala Uganda and not Ethiopia.

In those days member states took turns to host OAU summits.

Gowon later left for the UK to study political science at the university of Warwick. From Bsc to phd.

He was pictured queuing for food at the university cafeteria. Which drew the aire of the new government in Nigeria at that time.

So much for someone who looted the CBN.

Ever since he made that statement my heart has since been praying for Lai Mohammed not to watch/hear the statement cuz Tugendhat would prolly be in a deep shit if Lai does, as we all know CNN are still yet to recover from his Dealings, many of CNN's journalist are either in Kuje now cooling off or in DSS custody. Lai would waste no time having a Battalion of Man o' war taking care of Tugendhat and the whole house of common for accepting him in the first place

And they are just as fantastically corrupt by harbouring the looted funds.

In law it's called being an Accessory After Theft, and it is a felony, just like theft itself.

You cannot be retaining looted funds and then be presenting yourself as an angel of light who "condemns corruption".

Only gullible, colonised, brainwashed Nigerians fall for these games played by the British.

So, because he was overthrown while on a conference in Kenya?
Did it mean he had no money in the UK already?
Oh, he didn't have time to collect his Ghana must go full of naira in Lagos?
What a shallow and childish understand.

Corruption was one of the reasons Murtala Mohammed overthrew him.

A lot of people on this August platform are getting it all wrong vis-à-vis this allegations leveled against Gen. Yakubu Gowon.
The MP specifically said and hovered his eyes around when he made that statement " Some people can still remember when Gen. Gowon looted half of CBN money ". When you analyze this statement critically, you'll know that few or many of the Parliamentarian knows about it. The MP who raised such an allegations only echoed what has been known to them in the parliament. it is only new to us in Nigeria.

God bless Tugendhat.

Please expose all of them and especially the current corps.

They have been looting us dry a long time ago. I don't know how stupid and illogical some people can be by making excuses for Gowon.

This same bastard gave out a portion of Nigeria to Cameroon.

These white guys have their facts right before making public statements.

Is it not right in our own eyes that this Government massacred the EndSars protesters and they deny with lies that even the Devil can not tell?

They've been looking us dry for long.

They should ban all our Leaders, past and present + their children and families.

Devils!!!
