Do you know how many government officials have kids abroad.
If we are investigating public officials with kids abroad, then lets investigate all of them
We should not target just Farouk Ahmed.
I can list 50 Nigerians with kids of government officials studying abroad and their parents salary and position is not even up to Farouk Ahmed.

Kindly list and send to EFCC or their internal bodies of investigation. Farouk's own has been outed. Out the others ....

malali:

I am not his child. I just would not standby and watch him get mobbed without any evidence.
If Dangote wants to accuse him, he should do so with evidence of financial misappropriation
Not by his lifestyle, If we are investigating people by lifestyle......My security guard has 4 wives on minimum wage with 16 children
Can EFCC go and investigate him as well ?
How is he getting the money to feed 4 wives and 16 children on minimum wage ?

He just did with proof. That is all is needed. Aliko doesn't need documents etc. How do you think anonymous lines work?

I work in an org where a top manager did a family event and so many red flags .. as he got back - he was quietly invited for investigations and subsequently let go.

Nancy Pelosi is a public servant in USA senate.
Nancy Pelosi has a salary of $174 thousand dollars.
Nancy Pelosi is worth over 280 million dollars.

Many people in Nigeria have kids schooling abroad.
Their parents salary is not even up to Farouk Ahmed's salary

This man is not Nancy Pelosi and if you read on Nancy. You will know that there have been questions over the source of her funding and if she is taking advantage of her husband's role to do insider trading.

A government official in Nigeria should not be having 7 billion naira for school fees unless he has a side gig. Has he declared his side gig? Do the same salary analysis for Farouk as you did for Nancy. What has been his annual salary?

NB All that has been said is to investigate not that he should be arrested and jailed. If indeed his funds are clean no wahala ...

Institut Le Rosey (Rolle & Gstaad)
$110,000–$135,000 per year
The most expensive boarding school in Switzerland.

6 years for 4 children at 135k per years is $3.2 million dollars.
Not 5 million dollars.

Farouk Ahmed Oil & Gas industry roles (Nigeria & abroad):
• Started professionally as a Logic Board Verification Engineer at Apple Inc. in Dallas, TX, USA before moving into the energy sector. 
• Senior Crude Oil Trader – Duke Oil Inc. 
• Manager, Crude Oil Export Programming & Nominations, Shipping & Terminals (NNPC) 
• Executive Director (Commercial) – Petroleum Products Marketing Company (PPMC) 
• Managing Director – NiDAS Marine Limited (NNPC/DAWOO Joint Venture) 
• Executive Secretary – Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Authority (PPPRA) 
• Managing Director – PPMC 
• Special Adviser (Downstream) to the Group Managing Director, NNPC 
. Chief Executive Officer, Nigerian Midstream And Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA)

Dangote really thinks someone who has held all this post in Nigeria doesn't have 5 million dollars.........

How do you know he didn't make it in the stock market ?
Unless Dangote has evidence of misappropriated funds from NMDPRA, with documented evidence, this is defamation. Farouk should sue Dangote for false allegations and intent to defame. Money could have been inheritance,gifts,investments etc.
Do you know how many people have unexplained wealth in Nigeria, starting from Asiwaju Jagaban Tinubu ?
I suspect the Tinubu-cabal wants to remove Farouk Ahmed, they are just using Dangote to do the dirty job.

NO PADI FOR JUNGLE.

All this history demonstrates is that this chap has a track record and should be investigated. What kind of government salary gives a man 7 billion naira to pay for school fees!!!

malali:
Dangote is just targeting the guy, because he is standing up to Dangote most likely. Very few people can stand up to him in the North.
They can disagree on policies and issues. Dangote can get financial forensics against Farouk Ahmed. Like documents showing how the money is siphoned from government coffers.
But saying a man is corrupt because he lives above his means in Nigeria. Is not really a good way to catch a thief. There are millions of people in Nigeria living above their means. Even the president was accused of living above his means.
Dangote's wealth might be public knowledge, but in Nigeria......Nobody's wealth is public knowledge other than him and a few others.
There are people in Nigeria with private jets and they don't have a job or any known business.
5 million dollars is not a big deal.

7 billion naira is not a big deal? For someone who is at the top of a key body to be living above their means is a big deal and a massive red flag.

The people you have just described are all red flags. In a working society, they will be investigated on tax, source of funds, and other points. What did you just post?

They require a petition?

'Were issued' is different from 'was used'...

anonimi:
Infrastructure of no pipe borne water supply to homes in both cities?

What did that propagandist liar Fashola do in Lagos for eight years with so much IGR squeezed from the masses that compares with what Jakande or Mobolaji-Johnson did in 4 and 8 years respectively

Ok we have heard. I know what BRF did. You have your own opinion on him. Life moves on.

I have no problem with other states developing rather than Lagos being the only one which has functioning governors (even though IMHO Fashola was the last solid state governor). It is best in the long run for Nigeria if other states step up and even give Lagos a run for its money.

If people with money want to retire in Nigeria it is often only Abuja and Lagos they consider.. why? Infrastructure.

Congratulations to the people who got the awards. Can you imagine the service they would have done to get it? Who wouldn't be motivated to work in that organisation!!

djseanjohn77:
My brother, if you ever have the opportunity to enter in their midst - you will not want the largesse to stop suddenly or at all. The heart of an average Nigerian is so corrupt inherently. The difference is the level of fear of God - that makes some people steal as much as they can, and others bite the cake bit by bit. Nigerians are driven by big lifestyle, statement influence and luxury that we can do anything to acquire it. And physical wealth is insatiable. That's why Nigerians who leave Nigeria in search of greener pasture still end up committing crimes that range from petty to record breaking frauds and drug peddling.


You are not better or different from those in the corridors of power, the difference is, you are here and they are there, you have not had the opportunity to test your resolve, everything in your head of your inherent trait is imagination. Real situation will test your OJUKOKORO.

First this is not true for all Nigerians and it is false generalisations. There are some Nigerians that would never do such because they rightly have the fear and spirit of GOD in them.

Second this is a human trait. History is filled with examples of where humans aided corruption.

Third I agree with you - it is when people are faced with the chance to have a lot of monies that you know their integrity. Similar to an ugly man claiming virginity because babes no dey chase am, a poor man should be careful to claim integrity when proper money never drop on his lap. May we never see what will make us lose our chances at eternal life.

There is something I tell my children - Just because I can do something, it doesn't mean I should do that thing.

There are consequences to every decision; foreseen and unforeseen. Congratulations to those promoted but the complaints are valid.

This is not the first move. Ask what Farouk has done for Dangote to release this information.

ImIfeyinwaWj:
The hypocrisy in this editorial is mind-blowing. The writer is so consumed by envy that he cant see the bigger picture.

What hypocrisy? The writer is correct.

BarrElChapo:
Why’s the guy in the new all of a sudden?

He wants something from Tinubu. I suspect he has seen what FFK and Reno got and he wants the same.

He thinks his time in government wasn't a failure? He was part of a government that worsened every value in the nation. Economics, security, international acclaim etc

I hope an autopsy is done. The timing is too convenient.

Stephen0mozzy:
I have nothing against Marketers o, but I won't be with one - Especially Bank and Real Estate Marketers. Abeg

When I see real estate marketers profiles in IG, I see a lot of suggestive sexual content. Why?

As if they would deploy themselves or their children to the front line to fight. Someone should find out where the children of all these people are.

Why should he resign?

Yankee101:
Release them before Nigerian trips get deployed to the entire region
We may not be eeefetively fighting inside banditary due to political considerations but I can assure we we are capable and will fight any outside unwarranted and unwelcome aggression

Ask Sierra Leone and Liberia

Stupid of Nigeria to go to war over this. Diplomacy first and if this continues. Sanctions on CAS.

PepeXKermit:
No be by population my dear. There was once a time japan, a small nation hold china under chokehold for many centuries...

Tell them. Once a time? Japan owned China severally when it came to war. I don't think China has ever been able to invade Japan.

FreeStuffsNG:
I am not sure that you comprehend the report.

The soldiers were not on combat mission and probably routine ECOWAS patrol with no previous hostile notice given by Burkina Faso because we are not at war with them. The impostor coupist is apprehensive for obvious reasons that Nigeria can dislodge him from power.

Burkina Faso will not dare face Nigeria and ECOWAS for obvious reasons. They have been at the magnanimity of ECOWAS countries on humanitarian grounds. Nigeria still bailed out Niger recently with about 400 tankers of fuel when they got stranded. Burkina Faso, Mali are impoverished and landlocked, and like Niger, still using sea ports of ECOWAS countries to recieve everything they depend on and even export.

If this report is true, I will not be surprised if our aircraft and soldiers are already home.

They don’t want the Benin experience from Nigeria and the rest of ECOWAS.

It's nice to know that ECOWAS is now taking the fight to them after Benin.

There doesn't need to be war for a nation to stop another nation from entering its airspace. That said, this is not good news. It means West Africa is divided into 2 blocs - ECOWAS (US backed) and CAS (Russia backed). CAS is looking for conflict with ECOWAS. This is similar to Europe pre WW1.

Now I see why people in the know prefer Mane to this guy.

I am hearing that the coup plot may have failed.

I just pray that they are not changing one master for another i.e., one of Russia or China.

Jaychuks:
What is wrong with some Yorubas? You can't make a complete sentence in a day without mentioning Igbos. What is wrong with you and your generation?

Where have you seen Igbos calling for military coup in Nigeria? The coup plotters arrested by Tinubu government did you see any Igbo in the list? Why are you people so afraid of Northerners that you can't face them but always dragging Igbo into your stupidity? Shame on you!

How are you sure the ethnic baiter is Yoruba? It could be a false flag or another ethnic group?

SaiOba:
This guys have seen how Burkina Faso is fast becoming a new country from what she used to be.

They shouldn't buy into the hype. The propaganda is strong in that country.

jiggyman:
The women i have known and been with, if they have any atom of logical evidence and want to shame you, they do that immediately and not wait.

Natasha give it a rest.

Your very post suggests that you have not been with a woman like Natasha thus you do not have the experience. I have known a few that are strategic. They store every information and when the time is right, they spring it.

NB Akpabio is the one carrying her to court.

I had forgotten about and I presume plenty Nigerians have as well. Silly timing for this.

Did I just read Sharia propagation? Can this person read the mood of the nation? Sounds like an arrogant person.

This makes no sense.
