The ruling party whose primary responsibility is security ought to be the ones you should be directing your challenge at not the opposition who have been accused of all sort of things, shouldnt the accusers who happened to have the power bring them to book?
Well, I know all my rants won't change your mind sha. When you people are done destroying everywhere we will all live in bit together. Have I not shared news reports of the federal government's efforts & progress in that area  Meanwhile it is useful to note that we are in a democracy and the legislators have a very vital role to play.

Except PDP is scared of what will be revealed  You guys just don't seem to get it. The two chambers of the National Assembly - Senate & House of Reps. - both have the power to conduct this inquiry. That is what is done in the UK, USA etc. Yet our legisLOOTERs receive multiple times the amount of money these oyinbo legislators receive APC has the numbers in both chambers to FORCE the inquiry.

I don't see anything wrong if Apc stands to prove its innocency by calling for inquiry to unravel boko haram sponsors There is something utterly WRONG and DECEPTIVE if APC cannot mandate its members in the House of Reps and Senate to conduct (closed door) sessions with the security & intelligence chiefs to know the sponsors and BH's modus operandi. This is what is done in the UK, USA etc. As I said earlier they are simply playing to the gallery and have nothing meaningful to do in concrete action. Nothing.! Nada!! Zilch!!!

cyril83: It seems this dude enjoys writing in chameleon font than facing the fact.
I challenge you to answer the quetion below. It seems you like chasing shadows. Of course, there is nothing wrong in finding out the sponsors of boko haram? Is that not what the Jonathan/Sambo administration has been doing: Boko Haram: Senator Ndume Arraigned On Terrorism Charges The Nigerian senator detained in connection with links to islamic militant group Boko Haram appeared at an Abuja Magistrate court today to face terrorism charges.
The Peoples Democratic Party Senator, Mohammed Ali Ndume from Borno earlier confessed to knowing the spokesperson of the dreaded Boko Haram sect operating in the northeastern parts of Nigeria.
Senator Ndume represents Borno South Senatorial District at the Nigerian senate.
The Boko Haram spokesperson, Ali Sanda Umar Konduga, aka, “Usman Al-Zawahiri” was arrested and paraded in public yesterday by the Nigerian secret police, State Security Services (SSS). He spoke openly about Senator Ndume’s support in helping the group frame threat messages to various politicians and Nigerian officials via text messages.
The embattled senator was arraigned alongside the self-confessed spokesperson of the Boko Haram sect, Ali Sanda Umar Konduga (A.K.A) Usman Al-Zawahiri at magistrate court Abuja.
More from: http://saharareporters.tumblr.com/post/13211139017/boko-haram-senator-ndume-arraigned-on-terrorism What is WRONG is for APC to play petty politics with our national security issues to which they have NOTHING positive to contribute.There position so far has been: - Don't ban BH - Don't impose state of emergency - Grant amnesty to BH

Or is the President shielding them for a purpose as a poster earlier postulated? Why do you guys like to LIE so much as if na oxygen wey una dey breath ni Even the one who ran to Sudan where some of our bankers and Emirs also went to school has been arrested there:British-born man arrested in Sudan after bomb blasts killed 105 in Nigeria Former Nigerian soldier Aminu Sadiq Ogwuche suspected of being a ringleader of Islamist militants Boko Haram
The Guardian, Saturday 17 May 2014
A British-born citizen who once served in the Nigerian army has been arrested on suspicion of being a ringleader of the Islamist militants who killed 105 people in two bomb blasts in Nigeria last month.
Aminu Sadiq Ogwuche, in his 30s, was arrested this week in Sudan after Interpol issued an international arrest warrant for the former lance corporal who is believed to have played a key part in the Boko Haram bomb attacks.
The group, which bombed the capital, Abuja, last month with rush-hour devices in the packed suburb of Nyanya, is the same one behind the abduction of 300 schoolgirls in a remote village in the country.
Ogwuche, in his 30s, is being detained ahead of his extradition to Nigeria from Sudan's capital, of Khartoum, where he was studying Arabic at the International University of Africa.
His duties there included luring new recruits with promises of studying in the east African nation, which has traditionally been an Islamic centre for learning and culture, according to a Nigerian counter-terrorist official.
In 2012, a group of almost 100 recruits who believed they were heading to Sudan for Islamic studies were instead transported westwards across the Sahara to a terrorist training camp in Algeria, the official added.
Nigerian intelligence officials have long suspected jihadist extremists of training with Islamist groups in both Somalia and Sudan, where al-Qaida formerly had a strong presence.
After failing to show up at the military academy where he was enlisted in Nigeria in 2006, Ogwuche instead went to study at the University of Glamorgan. There he adopted the nickname "The Lion of God" and threatened to cut off the hands of "kuffars," or apostates, according to his social media posts. "Those who strive in the path of Allah love death like the kuffar (non-believer) love life, hahaha. Let them know, we are always ready to meet our lord anytime he wills," he posted on Facebook in 2010.
Though university classmates expressed shock at his arrest, a pattern of such behaviour had led to the son of a respected retired lieutenant-colonel being, on the radar of Nigerian intelligence officials for "several years," a senior security source told the Guardian. He was briefly detained in 2011 after travelling from the UK.
"He was again arrested in December last year in Abuja. But human rights organisations and his father said his rights were being violated, so we released him on bail. He immediately jumped bail and hasn't entered Nigeria until he came back for [the Nyanya bomb] assignments," said Mike Omeri, the head of the government National Orientation Agency. "Most of Boko Haram's senior commanders have been to Sudan or studied there. We know that those who travel there are at high risk of being radicalised," Omeri added. Ogwuche's name was among seven others that came up again after intelligence officials arrested a local Boko Haram ringleader in Kano – Nigeria's second city – days after the Nyanya bombings.
"Five other [Nyanya suspects] are in custody in Nigeria and one is at large," Omeri said.
An official said Ogwuche had been "furious" after his initial arrest last year.

Then even as recently as last month the same LIE Mohamed was seeking amnesty for the BH boys:APC advocates amnesty for Boko Haram June 2, 2014
Opposition All Progressives Congress, APC, has called on Federal Government to, apart from military tactics, explore other ways at solving the problem of Boko Haram insurgency in the country. Interim National Publicity Secretary of the party, Alhaji Lai Muhammed while speaking in Abeokuta over the weekend said the party has always supported dialogue, stating that government should not only use the military tactics in solving the problem but also explore political, economic and social options.  Mohammed said this when he paid a courtesy call on Amosun at the Government House in Abeokuta over the weekend. Fielding questions from Journalists, he said government should adopt a well sort out amnesty programme to ensure that the militants are trained to become employable and engaged gainfully when they lay down their weapons. According to him, this is the only way if the government intends to achieve results just as in the case of the Niger Delta militants. 
- See more at: http://nigerianpilot.com/apc-advocates-amnesty-boko-haram/#sthash.oga8Uztg.dpuf I guess LIE Muhammed expects the BH boys to be paid from the proceeds of the groundnut pyramids and cotton/onion/tomato plantations seeing that the Niger Delta amnesty was to facilitate the flow of crude oil from whose revenue the amnesty is pad and even Borno received in 2013 more than every south west and south east state except Lagos and Oyo  Again inquiring minds in our dear country want to know what APC really wants  |

This was also from the same LIE Mohammed last year: ACN: Boko Haram’s ban violates Constitution June 10, 2013
https://thenationonlineng.net/new/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/lai-muhammed.jpg
The Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) has said that the recent proscription of Boko Haram and Ansaru, desirable as it may be in tackling the terrorist organisations, violates the Constitution. According to the party, the proscription stifles the press and tampers with the fundamental human rights of Nigerians. In a statement yesterday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the ACN said the order also makes it easy for an increasingly intolerant government to clamp down on the opposition, which it sees more as an irritant than an indispensable part of democracy. It urged professional media organisations to challenge the Order in court to save journalists from long jail terms “simply for carrying out their constitutional duties”. The ACN urged the Federal Government to clarify “the knotty and vague areas” of the open-ended Order, that may end up punishing journalists and infringing on the civil liberties of the citizens more than it will curtail the activities of the sects. ‘’Against the background of insinuations in government circles, let us be clear that we do not condone the activities of these sects that have killed and maimed innocent Nigerians and turned a section of the country into a battle field. Terrorism in all its ramifications is condemnable, and no responsible government will allow any group, no matter its name, grievances or ideology, to carry out terrorist acts unchecked. ‘’But we believe that whatever action government takes – even in an emergency – must pass the Constitutional test, especially since the relevant sections of the Constitution have not been suspended,’’ the party said. It said the offensive section of the Order is Section 5 (1), which prescribes a term of imprisonment of not less than 20 years ‘’for any person who knowingly, in any manner, directly or indirectly, solicits or renders support for the commission of an act of terrorism or to a terrorist group’’. The ACN said “support”, as defined by the Order, includes ‘’incitement to commit a terrorist act through the Internet, or any electronic means or through the use of printed materials or through the dissemination of terrorist information. ‘’Is this subsection not in conflict with Chapter II Section 22 of the Nigeria constitution, which says ‘The press, radio, television and other agencies of the mass media, shall AT ALL TIMES BE FREE (emphasis ours) to uphold the fundamental objectives contained in this chapter and uphold the responsibility and accountability of the government to the people?’ ‘’By stifling the press, is the Order not abridging a part of the fundamental human rights guaranteed every citizen under Chapter Four of the Nigerian Constitution in Section 39 (1), which states thus: ‘Every person shall be entitled to freedom of expression, including freedom to hold opinions and to receive and impart ideas and information without interference?’(emphasis ours). ‘’Can journalists escape being sentenced to 20-year jail terms for publishing statements issued by the sects? Can they freely report on videos periodically posted on YouTube by Boko Haram leader Shekau? Can the media freely report the kind of massacre that took place in Baga in April without being held liable for ‘supporting’ terrorism? Can radio and television stations organise talk shows on terrorism without the discussants being held liable for ‘supporting’ terrorism? ‘’Can the opposition criticise the government’s strategies against the terrorist sects, through its regular intervention, without being perceived as offering support to the sects? Does this Order cover the satellite broadcast channels that can be accessed in many homes across the country? Who determines when this Order has been breached? These are some of the questions that arise under the proscription Order,’’ the party said. It said the government must take a cue from what obtains in other countries, especially in the US, which are also battling terrorism, adding that the media in those countries have continued to report freely on the activities of the global terrorist organisation Al-Qaeda, despite the horrendous attacks it has carried out in the US and Europe, among others. ‘’In a statement we issued on May 5th, we said inter alia: ‘The Jonathan Administration is steadily descending into despotism with a brazen assault on the freedom of expression and the press, the use of national institutions against perceived enemies and a growing inclination to denigrate opposition leaders. ‘’The Jonathan Administration is anchored on a Transformation Agenda. But the only transformation that we can see is the one from a democratically-elected President to an Emperor, a despot…If the President is not prevailed upon to change course, Nigeria may be in for another season of anomie, reminiscent of the days of the maximum ruler who took the country to the brink before his sudden demise.’ ‘’We hate to say this has turned out to be prescient, in view of the dangerous provisions of the Boko Haram’s and Ansaru’s proscription Order. The Order’s assault on the press freedom and the Constitutionally-guaranteed rights of ordinary Nigerians is unprecedented in the country’s history. We call on the Federal Government to take a second look at this Order, with a view to resolving any conflict it may have with the Constitution,” the ACN said. In a reaction to the AC N statement, House of Representatives Minority Leader Femi Gbajabiamila said: “You make a controversial butb an interesting and valid point. The order itself is in order but for the word support which is ambiguous n needs interpretation.”

nagoma: Because Nigerians want to get to the bottom of the matter once and for all. What's wrong with that? Why should PDP shy away from this? It will certainly be more useful than the extravagant, worthless and illegal confab going on now. Is Bola Ahmed Tinubu no longer one of the two (Buhari is the second) national leaders of APC Does APC want amnesty for the BH boys or does it want their sponsors fished out and dealt with after finding out its modus operandi  What really does APC want  Tinubu backs amnesty for Boko Haram MARCH 21, 2013
Former Lagos State Governor, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, on Thursday in Kano called for the granting of amnesty to Boko Haram militants, insisting that they are not ghosts as alleged by President Goodluck Jonathan.
Tinubu, the National Leader of Action Congress of Nigeria, who was in Kano to commiserate with the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Ado Bayero, over the attack on him and his convoy recently, explained that the amnesty must be based on justice, particularly for those with no blood stains on their hands.
He however said those involved in criminal activities among them must be made to face justice.
He said, “For the innocent ones among them, there must be amnesty. We cannot fight a war in our own country against minor crimes and minor people. We would only end up multiplying these people by trying to use force against our own citizens.
“I therefore disagree with the President; they are not ghosts.
“Are those people in prison ghosts? If they are, why are prison officials looking after them? Are JTF operatives fighting ghosts, do they possess magic power to see ghosts?”
According to him, security challenges in the country could also be attributed to the duplication of ministries related to Police affairs, which he said, could render the Inspector General of Police, M.D. Abubakar, incapacitated in taking firm control of security in the country.
At the Emir’s palace, Tinubu condemned the attack on the royal father, describing it as unfortunate.
The Emir, thanked Tinubu for the visit, describing him as a visionary and purposeful leader in every aspect of life by showing good example to the ordinary people.

Down here in Edo, few months ago, the comrade Governor wrested power from one Honourable Yakubu who won the local government election into Esan North East LGA of the state... He won the election flawlessly bt Oshiomole in connivance with INEC annuled the result and posponed the election, all cos he is on the platform of PDP.... The day to which the election was postponned came and he floored APC again....bt oshiobaba struck and enthroned his loyalists via the caretaker commitee bla bla.... It's no news abeg. I guess you mean the Edo State IEC, which is controlled by the state government i.e. Comrad I-go-Chop-too Oshiomole. When some of us say that the state governors in the so-called progreThief opposition are WORSE than Jonathan's PDP at the federal level which oversees the INEC, some who cannot reason very deeply taking various issues into consideration will CLUELESSLY label us supporters of PDP.However the facts speak for themselves. How many elections - - president - 36 state governors - 109 SINators - 360 representaThieves - 1,080 state assembly legisLOOTERSconducted by the federal INEC have been won by the opposition parties  Comparatively how many LGA chairmen and councillors have been won by the opposition PDP in those states not controlled by PDP?  Most of the state governors even avoid holding elections for as long as possible. Hopefully this judgement will encourage others/our activists to sue and compel these governors to hold the LGA elections as and when due. |

How many students does Havard give scholarships to annually and what is the amount to each student  How does this compare to Oyedepo's supposedly christian university built with the church people's money on the same scholarship matters? |

dondaddycares: o yea bro...we all should work on our spoken English and spelling,there is no word like EVIDENCES,its simply evidence. Coming to admitting no money was missing,if d prosecution did that,d case would have been struck out long time ago.If a prosecution witness under cross examination admits no money was missing,that doesnt mean d prosecution itself has admitted money wasnt missing; facts elicited from cross exam are simply matters for (final) address. Did i hear u say call witnesses? Sure d prosecution called 3 witnesses, they must not call all their witnesses as listed in the information. Suffice it to say dat even one witness alone is sufficient to prove a case upon which conviction may be based on. D EFCC closed its case,not abandoning it,stop being a mischief maker. If you aint happy d way EFCC is prosecuting d case,if u are a lawyer apply for d AG's FIAT and také over d prosecution...better still,d law allows for private prosecutors Please don't mind all these LIARS who are trying (as much as they can BUT keep FAILING in their attempts) to needlessly paint the presidency as MORE corrupt than their sponsors  Below is the witness story from earlier this year: Witness confirms several deposits in Fani-Kayode’s account Mar 19, 2014
A PROSECUTION witness and a legal officer with the First City Monument Bank Plc (FCMB). Mr. Elonna Ezelo yesterday told a Federal High Court Lagos, that several forms of deposits running into millions of naira were made by Femi Fani-Kayode, while he was the Minister of Aviation. The witness, however, said there was no formal report made to any authority concerning the financial transactions by the former minister. Fani-Kayode, is standing trial on an amended 40-count charge bordering on money laundering. At the resumed hearing of the matter yesterday, the witness who was led in evidence by the prosecutor, Mr. Festus Keyamo, told the court that the accused first had an account with First Atlantic Bank Plc, which later transformed from First Inland Bank Plc, to Finbank Plc, and now FCMB. He said as a legal officer of the bank, he collated all statement of account of the accused which revealed several transactions involving cash, cheques, draft and transfers. According to the witness, there were four deposit transactions captured in the accused statement of account between July 2006 and January 2007. He gave the details as follows: N660,000, N6 million, N10. 9 million and N3.3 million. But under cross examination by Defence Counsel, Mr. Ifedayo Adedipe (SAN), the witness told the court that no formal report was made by the bank to any authority, in relation to the statement of account of the accused. He also told the court that the transactions in the statement of account of the accused, however, took place before he assumed office as legal officer of the bank. He told the court that all his evidence in court was based on the information he retrieved from the computer in which the statement of account of the accused was stored. Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia has adjourned till today for continuation of trial. Fani-Kayode was first arraigned sometime in December 2008 before Justice Ramat Mohammed on a 47-count charge. He had pleaded not guilty to the charge and Justice Mohammed had granted him bail in the sum of N200 million with two sureties in like sum. He was again re-arraigned before Justice Binta Murtala-Nyako, following the transfer of Mohammed from the Lagos Division. Fani-Kayode was again re-arraigned before Justice Ajumogobia on February 11, 2013 after the transfer of Murtala-Nyako. Ajumogobia is now the third judge to preside over the case in the last five years, and the charge now bears 40 counts, after the EFCC dropped seven counts out of the original 47. In the charge, the accused was alleged to have transacted with funds exceeding the threshold allowed by the money laundering, without going through a financial institution. He was alleged to have accepted cash payments in the tune of about N100 million, while he held sway as Minister of Aviation and Minister of Culture and Tourism. The offence is said to contravene the provisions of Sections 15(1) (a) (b) (c) (d) and 15 (2) (a) (b) of the Money Laundering (prohibition) Act, 2004.

BluIvy: Dear Lord, English is a problem in Africa. When did CLOSE and REST mean the same thing?
Have you ever heard of the saying "case closed" which means cannot continue any further?
How old are you? Old enough to write something you cannot understand Give me just one court case where YOU heard "case closed" and it was not continued any further.I dey wait oh! In the context of court proceeding and reporting same, resting ONE's case and closing ONE's case are the same. This is very different from resting THE case or closing THE case. That is very clear in journalistic reports of court proceedings. And person like you go dey form oversabi, chai Naija don suffer  I pity the people wey you dey form for, seriously. |
