NIGERIA: NORTHERN SUPPORT FOR YAR’ADUA WANING, THOUGH TEMPERED BY FEAR
SUMMARY:

Maitama Sule (strictly protect), former Nigerian ambassador to the United Nations (1979-1983) and confidant of President Umaru Yar’Adua, averred that the northern political elite is increasingly apprehensive about Yar’Adua’s health and his capacity to continue to govern, and
is fearful the North may lose the presidency to the South if Yar’Adua dies, although we note that there are other factors at play on this issue besides Yar’Adua’s health, particularly if the Supreme Court calls for a new election.
While Sule believes that President’s performance during his first year in office has suffered due to his ailing health, he assessed Yar’Adua has succeeded in disentangling and distancing himself from former President Obasanjo. Sule informed that Yar’Adua wants to further reduce Obasanjo’s influence both within the Villa and the National Assembly. Consequently, Sule remarked, Yar’Adua intends to replace current Chief of Staff, and Obasanjo-loyalist, Abdullahi Mohammed. (Nigerian press reported May 30 that Mohammed has resigned, and will officially vacate office June 2.)
Sule confided that some influential northerners are currently pressuring former National Security Adviser, Aliyu Muhammad Gusau, to consider taking over as Chief of Staff.
Also, Sule alleged that Obasanjo is working to bribe the Supreme Court to overturn President Yar’Adua’s April 2007 election. While claiming
that First Lady Turai Yar’Adua is heavily involved in corrupt activities, Sule insisted that President Yar’Adua is committed to remaining personally untainted by corruption.
To that end, Sule asserted, President Yar’Adua recently turned down $60 million, which had been offered to him as the President’s personal “share” of Nigeria’s monthly oil earnings. Although Yar’Adua, according to Sule, allegedly ordered his “share” to be deposited into the nation’s treasury, Sule also said First Lady Turai pocketed $60 million while Senate President David Mark and House Speaker Dimeji Bankole each pocketed $30 million. We still contend however, that it is impossible for Yar’Adua not to know about his wife’s illicit activity even if he is not personally accepting bribes or engaging in such activity. END SUMMARY.
¶2. (S//NF) Maitama Sule (strictly protect), former Nigerian ambassador to the United Nations (1979-1983) and well-known confidant of President Umaru Yar’Adua spoke with PolOff at his Kano residence May 15 (see Ref A for Sule biographical information). Sule lamented the northern political elite remains increasingly apprehensive about Yar’Adua’s health.
Whereas earlier health-related predictions of Yar’Adua’s prognosis had been relatively positive, current estimates, Sule observed, paint a somber picture of the President’s strength, and consequently, his capacity to continue to govern. With the prospect of Yar’Adua’s death while still in
office figuring prominently in the minds of many in the North, Sule remarked that the North fears it may inadvertently forfeit its turn to hold the presidency. Such an eventuality, Sule bemoaned, would impair the North’s ability to retain influence and help chart a more positive course for northerners, especially after eight years of what northerners deem Obasanjo’s injurious influence on the North.

No be today o!
BANK OLE 30mil dollars
David Mark 30mil dollars
Turai 60 mil dollars

I now know just what kind of people lead this country.Is this despite what David and bankole earn as house leaders!!!!
Turai being just a non entity and a common first lady acquiring 60mil dollars.This country na wa!!! Now what we should be asking is what is the current FG doing about such or so!!!
Corruption is never fought.I hope waziri is listening and its time they ask and recover such funds.This are public monies being stolen and pocketed.
By the rich.Can you imagine that they are probably doing this yearly.Yet telling us that money no dey country!!!!!

hasyak:

how does this make him a spy?

If you read the first part of the report you will see that the writter asked the source to be strictly protected.Now if u ve been through all or most of the wikileaks report,i ve never seen anywhere where a source was asked to be proetcted by a report.That means he is a high priced asset to them being a senior govt official who knew the workings of the FGN and he was likely to remain in his post there even after many president.then U will believe that he was/is? a spy.though its still debatable but I think this is very close.

she probably must have gotten her own share, which makes it impossible to recover anything?

bolded, that means you are not sure.

I cant be sure guy cos I wasnt there to say what transpired and only on what I read to make submissions.

He is an asset or spy!!!! plain and simple.Who is he gisting with?You would notice his comments, they present an assessment.As presented in a report format for use.He is reporting what he has gathered.That assumes he is supplying critical information you and i have no access to.Also such information is strictly government details,classified before the advent of FOI bill.
He is sharing government information with a foreign interest.That makes him a spy.Also the US dispatch emphasizing  on protecting the person suggest his relevance and cooperation to there interest or the dispatch is classified by the US agent in Nigeria to others not cleared(approved) for such information.Also to attach significance to it as received by the US gov.Why do that if it is not important to them.The message and person are valid USA asset in information gathering.
IF you notice other post as exposed by wikileak.The USA ambassadors are inquiring from FGN post holding officers to possibly draw assessments on different issues.That man Sule is definitely ranting us out and reporting to his principle(US CIA controller).QED!!!!
If only the SSS are effective this information being collected should matter to them and they should start monitoring such people in this country.Atleast Wikileak has saved them the stress of choosing suspects from millions to eve-drop.Monitor them.I am sure they exchange information.Meaning report and be directed.when US direct such agents against our interest we should be concerned.Especially with the 2015 deadline.
Atleast even USA and Israel still spy on each other and arrest spies in both countries.Your interest most always come first and be protected.

Chei!!!!!

Americans go dey look us as feather-weights now cos they know us inside out courtesy of basketmouths in the corridors of power. Imagine they even know who gets what and when?

I am ashamed of this country, honestly!!!!!!

I'm not surprised at all.
Most Nigerian-americans would gladly spy for america for peanuts,anyway.
There's nothing new here.
The patriotism of Nigerians is zero.
