Abacha didn't steal money-GMB. But her family has refunded close to $10bn since Abacha died.

CoolFreeday:
We know that. They're doing everything possible to increase hardship and destabilize the government, so people can lose hope in the governance but it won't work, they need to try harder.

Yes cos 5m Naija's that lost their jobs are wailers and IPOB youths.
When you are buying a bag for N10k while wailers and Igbos are buying at N22k.
May all your families and friends be among the 5m without job, say Amen?

Let me educate you on some of his companies- NEXT Intl, in early 90s, was sole representative of these companies-Wrangler Jeans, Ovaltin, Heinz Ketchup, Kraft Foods and Castle Stout.
He was the Chairman of Futureview Securities-stockbrokerage firm
Largest shareholder in Fidelity Bank
He was a director in Chams Nig Plc.
All these accomplished in his 40s before he became a governor. Obiano, the current governor, worked for him most of those years.
Peter Obi is in league with Fola Adeola, Tony Elumelu, Paschal Edozie, Jim Ovia.

chibuzorAbia:


Sorry to be rude but you are a MAD man for saying this. Haba!!! Are you praise singers sane at all? And since you know him so well what exactly did he do to become a POUNDS billionaire? What a Twa-t!

He already made millions of $€£ cos InBev bought SABMiller to form the largest brewery in the world with a market cap of $104bn.
Peter Obi's company, Next Intl, brought SABMiller to build a $100m in Onitsha a few years ago . Anambra state and Next Intl invested in the company. So Anambra and Peter Obi are richer because of this acquisition by InBev

fiizznation:
Buhari is currently the best president Nigeria have ever produced. Keep up the good work Mr president. And may God continue to be with you.

Like a typical follower with low IQ who doesn't know how to use has or have. As Trump said " I love the poorly educated "

DaBullIT:



Your brothers in high places are the reason why there's no conviction and now that they've been removed I'm sure your people get jailed father than you can say fast

Maybe we should start with Abacha and his cronies first! BTW, GMB worked under Abacha and exonerated him of stealing. So far Naija has recovered close to $10bn from his family

And GMB hasn't told us names of the SAINTS that financed his election. Another exercise in futility. We have recovered billions from "looters" but won't publish their names. 2 years gone and there is no conviction. Staccato manner govt!!

Malabu oil deal was orchestrated by Abacha, GMB' boss, who handed out Naija oil blocks to his cronies. GMB said that Abacha never stole.

Media they're coming for you next!!

From the same guy who was a spokesman for PDP and Atiku Abubakar?

They're confusing GMB with big words like sub-judice, but the GMB had alreay made a statement that he was aware of the raid and it was a fight against corruption- so the executive arm has already labelled another arm corrupt without trial ?

Ehiscotch:
This is the second person coming out to dispute Peter Obi's claims. They are --to the best of my knowledge-- non APC members. They have come with strong claims that cannot be looked over. This is not propaganda, but a response. Peter Obi just stupidly attracted attention. If the EFFC decide to come after him now with all these revelations, my igbo brothers go begin shout 'wit. . . . '

What a display of congenital idiocy! Have they refuted the fact that he saved huge sum for incoming governor? Have they given us contrary figures? Have they gotten banks like Access, Fidelity and Diamond to discredit Obi's account?
Have they disputed that Anambra came first in Jamb,NECO and WAEC during his tenure?
Have they disputed that he brought $100m SABMILLER investment to the state?
Have they disputed that he founded Orient Petroleum and invested Anambra's money in it?
Let us debate facts not emotions and dreams

More reasons why separation of power should be upheld. A president is not supposed to be making a public statement on case like that hasn't even come up before a judge. So the president determines who's corrupt or not?

In the US, president doesn't disobey court orders.
In the US, the president doesn't tell the police, FBI and judiciary who to investigate
In the US, laid procedures are followed. A complaint is made and substantiated than investigation is initiated followed by a grand jury approval for an indictment which followed by granting an arrest want by a judge of competent jurisdiction. All of the above must meet " a beyond reasonable doubt" threshold of about 90% that the alleged actions might have occurred.
And most importantly, the president doesn't play any party in any of these.
That' s why Bill Clinton's appointed Attorney General appointed an independent prosecutor, Ken Starr, to investigate Bill Clinton.
That's why Bush's appointed Attorney General appointed, Patrick FitzGerald to investigate Scooter Libby who was accused of lying under oath later convicted.
That's why Obama's appointed FBI Director, Comey and Attorney General, Loretta Lynch investigated Hilary Clinton.
When is GMB going to investigate:
Dambazzu, Buratai, Abba Kyari, Amechi and co?

This is what to look out for :



Until they are ready. So they know that witnesses and accused persons ought to be questioned and statements attached before filing an action? So why the hurry to appeae busy and impress gullible zombies when they have not complied with basic requirements?

Why do they find it more convenient to circumvent the
rights of their latest victims and then rush straight to the press/courts? If the court had thrown out such thoroughly defective processes before they received some sense they would say d judges were corrupt yet they're the ones that fail to do the to right thing despite the huge salaries n emoluments they collect.

If not for the fact that the CCT President is completely biased, d matter against Saraki would have also been dismissed as being the same issue against Tinubu for failure to inform and question the accused before charging him. Instead he said he was mistaken and overruled himself. If he finishes his jamboree now and his decision gets quashed on appeal for this fundamental flaw, idiots will still say the judges were corrupt.

You're making too much sense for us Zombies to grasp. Sorry, facts and common sense do not reside in our realm of thought.

adamskutty:
dummy,but that doesn't change the fact that 60percent of Ghana 24 million people are poor compared to 33 percent of Nigeria 170 million people

No wonder you failed logic and arithmetic classes!
If it were to be true, 60% would be 14m poor people in Ghana while 33% would mean 57m poor people in Naija.

EasternPride:


If you mean in terms of if Nnamdi Kanu can't be ranked an intelligentsia, then we must put into cognizance, that he is a well learned man who has PhD in political economics from one of the prestigious universities in U.K

Also it takes an intelligent to build an organization that can rattle a govt without violence and has a structured leadership, from even the market women to the top echelon.

People may argue NK is a radical violence provoking man, others call him a table rouser and loose cannon, but one must appreciate that the man himself is a very intelligent fellow.
It takes intelligence to be a great orator and debater, and it takes another level of intelligence to store all important details in ones memory and be able to use it convincingly to wow his fiercest enemies.

What's his pedigree? How many public offices has he held? How many businesses has he founded? What's his experience on civil disobedience and protests? What's his experience on revolutionary movement? NONE to all of the above.

Did Christ go to any Church?

PaulIdu:


They will be charged to court on Monday and disgraced ..where was the rule of law when they were selling Judgements for billions of naira even though they were being paid by taxpayers ..Nigerians judges have been the greatest threat to free and fair elections so far

Same rule of law that allowed GMB to contest without showing proof of certificate? Same rule of law that made Amechi governor? Same rule of law that affirmed Ambode as the governor?

ReneeNuttall:
Every womans dream is to be with the right person for the right reasons, yes the man might be older
than her, but théy are both happy together so who am I to judge them? Btwn the man might be a widower or divorced

Nope. Every Naija woman's dream is to be with a man who has got endless pocket. It's all about the money!

eyeview:

So you are part of the people that put us in this mess. Didn't you bother to study about him and Hus antecedents before voting for him

GMB helped to put this country in a mess! We weren't born yesterday.

patriotic9jaboy:
The IPOB yout above me is foaming at the mouth for nothing. Tinubu has fought countless political battles and emerged victorious. If the north think they can use and dump him, he would simply realign with like minds and work towards taking power away from the north in 2019. In the end, it will be a win win situation for Tinubu and the south west

What a naïveté product of Naija politics! He had to fleer Naija under Abacha. And it took him 16years to move from opposition to major party.

sparkle10:


Shut up and stop the crap. Stop supporting uncivilized and dictatorial tendencies and actions all in the name of partisanship. You may cry a river later.

Think his actions are restricted to judges alone? He will come after u!!

Your opinion changes nothing. Their houses havs been invaded and they will be locked up so as to serve as lessons to other judges not to undermine the powers of the executive. The judges have never ruled in favor of buhari ever since be began several trials. Do you expect him to fold his hands and watch? That is why he is the commander in chief of armed forces. He can get whatever he wants

What an arrogant display of congenital idiocy! Are there charges against those judges?

So Peter Obi was right after all. He had been flying economy class as a governor when Naija wasn't in a recession. So these governors are just waking up?

Our economy has sunk to the abyss of desolate and he's hosting religious figures! When is he going to hold meeting with GE CEO to ascertain the exact amount his company is investing in Nigerian?

Executive rascality. One of the most infuriating things about GMB is that every day he keeps proving his detractors and opponents right! They will always say " don't say that I didn't warn you"

GBTYO:


Dunce, majority of oil revenue that your afonja region never contributed to was used to float the naira and fund your parasitic region.

And how much did Buhari leave for IBB? And how much did Abacha, Buhari's boss, leave for OBJ? Did Naija start in 1999?

[quote author=Adelaide2 post=50009064][/quote]
Not having $2000 is not a yardstick for measuring wealth. Those assets can always be monetized unlike in Naija where most people live under $2/day. Btw, $2000=N1m in Naija, how many can boast of having N200k emergency fund in Naija? A few weeks ago, an engineer with Halliburton was asking me for N150k to pay his child's delivery in a hospital.

Hypocrisy is when you borrow 70% of your budget and allocate only 30% of ur to capita project and then come back to tell us that you can only implement 15% of the capital budget.
Hypocrisy is when you budgeted more money for Aso Rock clinic than all the federal teaching hospitals.
Hypocrisy is when you increased Aso Rock budget from N6.6bn in 2015 to N39bn to 2016 while asking Nigerians to make sacrifices.
It's all consumption budget not production budget, so IMF is going to ask you to make tough choices.

Fall equivalence. Over 60% of Naija earn less than $2/day
Over 75% of Americans have savings in 401K, stocks,annuities, life insurance, mutual, CDs, IRA.
They might not have $2000 in their bank accounts but might savings/investments account of over $100k. They're not cash/liquidity-minded like Naija
