Then go to the higher court and stop hypothesising on a matter already decided on.

This order is very darn good! It even informs people to challenge him in court if they don't like, even self before he comes for their assets if they're so minded, and in any court they like, even one convenient to their own abode, as long as the judge go school!

Section. 3. (i) Any Person who alleges that his rights have been, are being or are likely to be contravened by any of the provision of this Executive Order may apply to a competent Court in his jurisdiction for redress.

This is the bubu we voted for, Messiah Jesus Amen Christ God and Holy Water plus Mary self with Cross too knack am!

I am that excited! And I don't like when people assume ma didn't pay my full school fees!!

Mr 'Fayose', be informed!

Yankee101:
This is how much attention you're gonna get from me.

Please, before you go, show us Fayose on the list. Don't let me continue to be stupid o, I beg.

Eponyeeboz:
Please provide the suit number for Fayose's suit. Others are stated there, provide his.

Please o, I too want to know. Show us Fayose on the list Yankee101!

If he is there, then my bubu, you are seriously out of order!

Eponyeeboz:
There's a FHC judgment upholding the legality of Executive Orders.
There's no Appellate judgment setting aside the FHC judgment.

Didn't know this. What you say now, Yankee101?

Yankee101:
Read properly, that's a Federal High Court ruling.
You still have 2 levels above that.

1. Appeals Court level, if they say No,
2. Supreme Court

Infact if it contradicts any international law, which I think it does (UN Charter on Human Rights [Article 13] Freedom of movement), you can go to the courts of the world body which Nigeria is a signatory to.

If you want to be involved in defending the indefensible, at least familiarize yourself with basic law operations in your Country

Go to court dude. Though, I confess, the legality of this order was the first thing I checked. If the Order is thrown out, I won't mind since my love for the rule of law trumps my regard for my bubu.

It does not concern Article 13 however, since you can't claim that Article whilst on bail, which would be the case if you have a criminal case pending and an considered a flight risk.

THE BIBLE

One could say that the Bible also teaches 'marry more than one woman', so you might have a point. One doesn't have to divorce the first one before marrying another, and another, and another and.....

I'm beginning to like this Bible, though I doubt those 'and anothers' would share my likings.

LordReed:
Rational people are aware of stuff like this. Obviously Sauron can't kill a mosquito neither can the WhiteWalkers but it seems some people think fairytale characters have super powers. I would just like to show how silly and fake it all sounds.

Educate them too while you're at it please, and don't encourage their ignorance.

Eponyeeboz:
When criminals use proceeds of crime to acquire properties, such properties are usually confiscated pending completion of investigations. That's why you see fraudsters being paraded with vehicles acquired with proceeds of their crimes.

How is that different from what's happening now?
Are you aware that before this Executive Order, this was the same position of the law?

Also, they are released on bail with their passports confiscated so they can't travel anyway.


Please, don't you ever tire educating those who don't know. Their corruption is ignorance which can be educated out of them one at a time.

Meanwhile, I doff my cap to you.

Mklanceee:
it is just an executive order not law. it can be set aside in a court

Not really, "set aside", as court already decided it's legal. Can be challenged if applied illegally though.

Eponyeeboz:
It was posted here before the antispambot hid it.

Yeah, what was that about? Bloody spambutt!

Yankee101:
Contest @ Supreme Court

This won't stand scrutiny

It already has, sorry. Court scrutinised and said it's legal.

PRESIDENTIAL EXECUTIVE ORDER No. 6 of 2018 ON THE PRESERVATION OF SUSPICIOUS ASSETS CONNECTED WITH CORRUPTION AND OTHER RELEVANT OFFENCES


Whereas it is the responsibility of the Federal Government of Nigeria to protect the resources of Nigeria from all forms of Corruption;

Whereas Corruption constitutes an unusual and extraordinary threat to the well-being, national security and stability of the country’s political and economic systems, as well as its continuous existence; and must be effectively addressed;

By the powers vested in me under Section 5 of the 1999 Constitution as amended which extends to the execution and maintenance of the Constitution, all Laws made by the National Assembly (including but not limited to Section 15(5) of the Constitution) to, abolish all corrupt practices and abuse of power, it is the duty of any responsible government to restrict dealings in suspicious assets subject to corruption related investigation or inquiries in order to preserve same in accordance with the rule of law and to guarantee and safeguard the fundamental human rights;

Now therefore, I, Muhammadu Buhari, President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, in exercise of the powers conferred on me hereby declare as follows:

Section 1. (a) Without prejudice to any laws or existing suits or any other rights arising out of or in respect thereof, all Assets of any Nigerian citizen within the territory of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, or within the possession or control of any person known to be a current or former government official, a person acting for or on behalf of such an official, any politically exposed person or any person who is responsible for or complicit in, or has directly or indirectly engaged in Corrupt Practices and Other Relevant Offences are forthwith to be protected from dissipation by employing all available lawful or statutory means, including seeking the appropriate Order(s) of Court where necessary, and shall not be transferred, withdrawn or dealt with in any way until the final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction of any corruption related matter against such a person.

This provision shall, in particular, apply to those connected with persons listed in the First Schedule to this Order, (or any such list as may be issued by the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice).

(b) Where a Government official or a person acting for and on behalf of such an official, directly or indirectly, engages in Corrupt Practices such as misappropriation of State assets for personal gain, receives any form of bribe or engages in Corrupt Practices related to the performance of his/her duties or the award or execution of Government contract; or transfers, launder or facilitates the transfer or laundering of proceeds of illicit activities, such official, in addition to forfeiting the proceeds in accordance with the relevant laws, shall forthwith be subject to the disciplinary procedure in accordance with the Public Service Rules and investigation by the Code of Conduct Bureau.

(c) (i) Subject to Section 174 of the Constitution, the Attorney General of the Federation shall have power to coordinate the implementation of this Order and to enlist the support of any Enforcement Authority particularly those listed in Second Schedule to this Order, or any other Person or Entity as may be required or permitted by applicable Law in order to give effect to this Executive Order.

(ii) The Attorney-General shall from time to time publish a list of all Assets protected pursuant to this Order.

(iii) The authority of the Attorney General of the Federation to preserve Assets pursuant to this Order shall extend to any Person who is under investigation in accordance with applicable law in connection with having materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or services to or howsoever in support of any Corrupt Practices or Other Relevant Offences by any Person whose Assets are protected pursuant to this Order; or any Entity that has engaged in, or whose members have engaged in, any Corrupt Practices or Other Relevant Offences,

Provided however, that the Attorney-General shall at all times in this connection, employ all available lawful or statutory means, including seeking the appropriate Order(s) of Court where necessary, and ensure that Assets shall not be transferred, withdrawn or dealt with in any way until the final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction of any corruption related matter against such a person.

(iv) Where the Attorney-General has reasonable cause to believe that any funds or assets within Nigeria is connected with Corruption, the Attorney-General may, subject to his powers under Section 174 of the Constitution and other laws enabling him in that regard, approach the Court for an Order blocking or freezing or confiscating such funds or assets pending the conclusion of an investigation or legal action.

(d) Enforcement Authorities shall upon request communicate to the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice information arising from their investigation or enquiry on any Person (Nigerian or non-Nigerian), whether resident in Nigeria or not, determined by such Enforcement Authority to have directly or indirectly engaged in or involved in Corruption within the territory of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and the Attorney General shall immediately commence or direct the commencement of appropriate process(es) either administratively or judicially as may be necessary subject to existing applicable law.

Section. 2. (a) Any Person who in circumvention of this Executive Order attempts to or in fact: (i) interferes with the free exercise of the authorities of the Office of the President, (ii) destroys evidence, (iii) corrupts witnesses through cash/kind inducements, and (iv) generally perverts the course of justice shall be prosecuted in line with the provision of any Law(s) governing unlawful acts.

Section. 3. (i) Any Person who alleges that his rights have been, are being or are likely to be contravened by any of the provision of this Executive Order may apply to a competent Court in his jurisdiction for redress.

Section. 4. All Enforcement Authorities are hereby directed to diligently and rigorously collaborate with the Federal Ministry of Justice in implementing this Order to ensure the preservation of suspicious assets and prevent their dissipation or removal from the jurisdiction of Nigerian courts, in order to facilitate, support and enable the expeditious and accelerated prosecution of the alleged Corrupt Practices, serious or complex corruption, and Other Relevant Offences.

DATED THIS …4th.. DAY OF …July…. 2018

Muhammadu Buhari

PRESIDENT

FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA

I'm getting rather tired of these "God (and Satan) killed anyone or anything". Where the below says "Abrahamic God", please include Satan too!

budaatum:
I suggest that 'the Abrahamic God killed or caused people to die,' was written in the Christian Holy Book by a rather incompetent journalist who didn't bother to check for evidence of the dead and what killed them, neither of which I am certain you have any evidence for apart from what you've read.

Since evidence had not been checked, the best that should have been written would have been, "Millions of people died, or were killed. It was claimed by some that the Abrahamic God done it". But, as is said in Porgy and Bess, "The things you are likely to read in the Bible, it ain't necessarily so!" And I'm betting you don't buy that piece of butter like fake news claptrap anyway.

The Abrahamic God did not kill anyone! The truth, more likely is, some people died or were killed, and rather than take responsibility for killing them, and in the flood instance, finding out why they died, some people blamed it on their imaginary god and reported it as we now read it.

Unless you're buying into the inability of some to take responsibility for their actions, or buy in to the vivid imagination or the plain ignorance they employ to justify their iniquity. In which case go Capslocked over in the religious thread please. They buy that sort of crap!

Things that don't exist can't kill!

Listen and listen for your Good.. Except you are not Introduced in the doing your marriage GOD'S WAY.

Once you are Married, You are Married..

The only thing that separates u from your spouse Biblically is Death..

If for any Reason of infidelity of your spouse, you get separated or divorced, you are not permitted Biblically to Marry another woman...
Except your Orginal wife passes on....

As long as the woman you married is your 1st wife and u her first Husband.... she is your wife...

Any other thing is a Scam..

Please, what denomination teaches this?

solite3:
you should read more carefully

More carefully than I currently do? I seriously doubt that's possible.

solite3:
budaatum, yes or no do you believe God exist?
why is it so?

Your question is wrong. Since I can cook up anything I want in my head and believe it just like you seem to be doing, what I believe is irrelevant, at least as far as gods are concerned. I can tell you what I know however, if you wish to know.

solite3:
Mr atheist, do you now believe there is God?

I must believe before I can understand simple book now? So what excuse have you got for everyone else who disagrees with you? Are they atheists too? Or maybe they are partly atheists, in your opinion?

I swear to God! I double commend everyone who has not relented in educating you. May God Almighty continue to strengthen them forever and ever, in the name of the Son, the Father, the Holy Spirit, and for your sake, Mary, the Holy Mother of God! Amen!

solite3:
that is not what I mean.
budaatum.

And that's the problem with just about every one of your posts that I've read so far. You want to give words the meaning you want them to have while disregarding their actual meaning of words!

If a person born pickin, as in, if the pickin comes out of the person's womb, forever and ever that person is the pickin mother. Even after the pickin becomes a lawyer, a god, an astronaut, or a doctor, im mama na im mama. And if God did not want it to be that way, God could have easily have just dropped his own son straight from heaven, gbam!

UbiPetrus:
"Mental gymnastics" I like your choice of words, walahi.

The young man is arguing against the obvious.
What I call "regurgitated anti Catholic nonsense."

I don't agree that it is anti-Catholic that stops him seeing sense. Rather it is pure and simple anti-sense itself that makes him not accept the obvious, and perhaps a lack of understanding of simple English and the desire to hold on to the shampoo his brain has been washed with.

I do commend those of you who have relented not in educating him.

solite3:
Christ is also man.
now is Mary mother of man also?

No now! When my mother gave birth to her son, she was his mother. But when he became a man, she was no more his mother. Same way Mary is not the mother of her son Jesus when he became a man now.

PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW THEM TO MAKE THE 2019 ELECTION , A YORUBA VS IGBO STRIFE. IT IS NOT

Dr Nnaemeka Onyeka Obiaraeri, FICA

Yet, Dr Nnaemeka Onyeka Obiaraeri, FICA's piece is about creating strife with his "YORUBA VS IGBO".

I am shaking my head!

IamAtikulate:
Only SW are afraid of restructuring

I think the only people not afraid of restructuring are those states with nothing to restructure. If oil states get to keep the revenue generated in their states, those states would create zillionaires rich enough to own Nigeria, which wouldn't be so bad but for the sheer fact that it would be the thieves amongst them who would be the richest rubbing everyone else's face in poverty. The structure to limit corruption needs to be in place before wealthy states get to keep the revenue they generate , and even then, it may not happen. Just read up about Scotland's clamour for independence. All the oil wells are off their coast so UK can't let them go off alone.

Worth noting also is Texas declaration of Independence which they've continued clamouring for since March 2, 1836. Mexican Texas officially declared independence from Mexico and created the Republic of Texas. Texas was eventually annexed by US state on December 29, 1845 in return of $10,000,000 in Federal bonds for which they dropped claims to territory which included parts of present-day Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Wyoming. There are Texans who still dream of independence.

And consider the Catalan independence movement which seeks independence of Catalonia from Spain. The political movement began in 1922 when Francesc Macià founded the political party Estat Català (Catalan State). They too are still at it.

As well as the Irish War of Independence or Anglo-Irish War fought from 1919 to 1921 between the Irish Republican Army (IRA, the army of the Irish Republic) and the British security forces in Ireland. In April 1916, Irish republicans launched the Easter Rising against British rule and proclaimed an Irish Republic. Although it was crushed after a week of fighting, the rising and the British response led to greater popular support for Irish independence. The Irish Free State was created as a self-governing dominion on 6 December 1922 with Northern Ireland remaining within the United Kingdom. There is ongoing clamour to for one Ireland.

And for humours sake, Brexit, the United Kingdom's yet to happen independence from Europe which everyday sounds more like the British would have to move their country lock stock barrel and people to the middle of the Atlantic Ocean if any space can be found for them there.

Nigeria is way too integrated for the sort of splits above, in my opinion, so I guess a greater share of internally generated revenue is all that could be hoped for for now. And perhaps when we all grow up a little bit more, we could make five countries out of Nigeria, in say, the year, 3060. Though, the Partition of India and numerous other countries that have split recently should be borne in mind.

Who banned me? My own religion section? I rule that joint and only I have the power to ban myself.

I'm laughing.

Butterflyleo:
Exactly! Hey Buda how are you holding down my zone for my return?

The zone you're banned from? Indeed I am.

vaxx:

Butterflyleo:
Lmao Atiku the Prince of Corruption.

Everybody knows this except those who wish to keep lying to themselves or the indomie generation

And the corrupt who want to join him in stealing!

H0pefulLandl0rd:
I think mods tend to pay attention when the post is reported by another Nairalander. Mods don't check every post made. they mostly check reported posts so overwhelming majority of posts violating Nairaland rules go unpunished

I must start reporting people more. Might put vaxx on my list in fact if just for the fun of it, except with his ape friend gone and my Sai Bubu alliance with butter, vaxx gone will take the fun out too.
