brainpulse:Don't go to Anambra state nd talk dat rubbish i bolded, make pple no vex beat u join. No governor in Anambra state has developed that state like Peter Obi. I was in sec sch in onitsha wen dat man renovated every single sch in Anambra state nd equip it wit modern facilities. Peter Obi's achievements are so laud dat they speak for themselves. U obviously don't live in Anambra during his tenure as governor. As for the news, he tried to dodge tax, an so fuckn wat? Anybody wud do the same in his shoes including u to save expenses. At least nobody has been able to prove beyond reasonable doubt dat the money he used to acquire dose properties were from corrupt proceed. If u're intelligent u wud know dis is just anoda another political ploy to bring him down as regards 2023 election, have u asked urself why only his name was singled out among oda persons who did d same thing 1 Like 1 Share |

The code of conduct bureau should begin the prosecution of Peter Obi without further delay to serve as a deterrent to other thieving politicians. He hid so many assets from declaration probably because they were illegally acquired and that is a criminal offence. Stolen Anambra loot should be recovered from him and returned to Anambra's coffers quickly to complete the numerous legacy projectsvof governor Willie Obiano. 1 Like |

[quote author=brainpulse post=106460096]This man spells everything about fraud and lies. He perfected plans to ensure that all traces of his fraudulent schemes were cleaned and marketed himself has a saint politician with lies. How can you come out to say you do not know that you have to declare joint assets you have with family members and business partners, who does that except a rogue. A lot of buildings purchased by proxy have be linked to him in Ikoyi when he was serving governor, while selling fake narration to his gullible followers of having one wrist watch, one shoe, glasses and cloth. With no significant development in Anambra when he was the governor spells failure in his entity. When you are elected/appointed as President /Gov/ NASS / Minister, you are expected to declare your assets. When you leave office , you must also declare your assets. If you did not , you broke the law. Law is law. But he is lucky to be in the only tribe that protects and defends its corrupt criminals [/quote Have you ever seen an mam who's not fraudulent ? |

PHIPEX: What Peter Peter Obi has done is tax evasion and not tax avoidance. Tax evasion is a criminal offense. In addition to the criminal tax evasion, he is also guilty of violating the code of conduct act and operating a foreign account illegally while in office. These are serious violations of the constitution that is not expected from someone that claims to be a saint. He is a crook and should be treated as such. 2 Likes 1 Share |

richmond500:That is not the case here. There are legally permitted way of ensuring your company pays lesser tax, that's tax avoidance. Same reason Dangote is constructing Apapa road to AVOID tax, it's legal |
Re: Pandora Papers Implicate Peter Obi, Nine Other Nigerians by PHIPEX(m): 1:00pm On Oct 05, 2021 |
seunmsg:You can argue on the declaration part but certainly not on the tax part. He didn't break any law. I can make certain investments from my salary eg life insurance to avoid tax, it's very legal. Even on the declaration part, Pandora evidence might not be admissible in court, so it's a waste of time. |
Re: Pandora Papers Implicate Peter Obi, Nine Other Nigerians by seunmsg(m): 1:21pm On Oct 05, 2021 |
PHIPEX: Go and learn about the difference between tax avoidance and tax evasion. Obi is hiding assets abroad so as to avoid paying taxes on them. That is not tax avoidance but tax evasion. It is a criminal offense. In addition, the investments were made while he was in office. What is the source of the investment? If it is from a legitimate source and not public funds, why hide it away from the public? Why did he refuse to declare them while in office or after leaving office? Peter Obi, just like Bagudu is a crooked politician. Both of them should be tried by the code of conduct bureau. 2 Likes 1 Share |

PHIPEX: Shell companies are not the normal foreign companies. They are called shell companies because they are inactive and does no business. They are simply created to avoid paying taxes from where the real income was generated and to hide away corruptly gotten wealth and also launder money. 1 Like |

Creamz:Pandora was not interested in the source of money but to expose how they hide their businesses to avoid paying tax properly and elude public scrutiny of their sources of wealth. But with these exposure, it's now time for the public to scrutinize him on how he amassed money to establish those multi-million businesses, besides his refusal to pay taxes due on them. 1 Like |

[color=#770077][/color] brainpulse: You must out of your senses to mention that there was no significant work when he was governor of Anambra state. You can call him anything you want I don't care but lie against his administration heaven will never forgive you. As a student in JSS1 I stayed at home for one year because of strike during Mbadinauju's administration, only for Obi to turn things around. Obi made Anambra state what it is today. He maybe corrupt, likewise you but don't lie against his administration even though you are not from Anambra state |

Re: Pandora Papers Implicate Peter Obi, Nine Other Nigerians by gawu1: 3:26pm On Oct 05, 2021 |
Creamz:Kindly go through the Pandora paper report about him and see when he started investing in the secret companies in question. Even James Ibori first claim was that the money he was accused of laundering were family money. That was why his wife was first convicted before him. I only hope that when the fg rise to occasion and make sure the ill gotten business of him are confiscated and lost to Nigerian government just like that of Ibori, you people will not come with claim that the money are for Anambra state government. 1 Like |

gawu1: I am clearly not holding brief for him, but I believe he had money before he became a governor. Him choosing to use that mode to preserve his inheritance I don't find questionable. However, the timing is suspicious. So I hope he can clear up the issue of the timing in the near future. |

Creamz:We always claim that our politicians and leaders shortchange us by stealing our patrimony, thereby conditioning us to poverty and under development. Yet, anytime anyone else from them is caught in the act, the same (we) come to his or her defence with one excuse or the other. We have allowed free environment for the thieves milking us in this country to ride on with their stealing prey due to our primordial sentiments. My thief, what about your own thief! Just now that we have Peter Obi on Pandora paper, we have had many of him, in fact we have many of him and we will have many of him. The discourse is that with or without Pandora paper, we know our thieves but have no ball to reject them. |
