I don't understand why the NJC has not summoned Justice John Tsoho to explain why he gave an ambiguous and vague "status quo" injunction which Criminal lawyers like Ozekhome are now peddling around to subvert the wishes of the people and to also subvert already laid down legal Precident. Ozekhome should be reported to the Legal Priviledges committee responsible for checking the excesses of Lawyers. We can't have a lawyer that goes around buying judgements and subverting the law.

Well, I am fed up with all these everyday drama. I expect her to provide evidence of the funds in her account. I think the government should also look at Turai Yaraduas account, Miriam Abachas account e.t.c

The FG has been seizing money from the Abachas since 1999, I don't think Maryam has written any petition to anyone to stop the seizures or forfeitures. It's this local village former first lady patience, that thinks the world revolves around her that wants to intimidate everyone because we're trying to recover our money that she stole from us. Stupid illiterate woman.

PaChukwudi44:
The Court ordered a status quo be maintained, if INEC goes ahead,the Senate will disregard this exercise irrespective of the outcome and Dino will continue to sit tight in the Senate

BTW Dino has not been silenced like you think. He was even the one who called Magu a mere DPO on Tuesday and called on the Senate not to confirm any new nominees until magu is removed from office

Please understand the law. The court in Abuja did not stop the recall process. A recall is like an election and no court can order for a recall to be stopped. There is legal precedence to that effect as a court of apeal has already ruled in a previous case. The court was very explicit when it said denied Melayes exparte application to halt the recall, ordering that the status quo be maintained. Meaning INEC will go ahead with the way things were previously which is to recall the Senator.

Nukilia:
Although I don't support corruption, but I don't believe all you've written there.
1. We can smell the lies and propaganda, its oozing out from this government and their unreliable agencies.
2. The EFCC under the guise of investigation have the right to send a message to BE
3. which dumb documents are you asking for? As if seeing the document changes anything.

A government that cannot disclose the health challenge of his president is a fraud.
A government that deceives the masses under the guise of fighting corruption is a fraud.
I will not join in calling Nigeria a zoo, all I know is that dumb people are busy running the country and their end will come soon.

I have no idea what Buhari in London has to do with patience Jonathan and her magical 35 million dollars in Skye bank. This lady has money she can't account for. She's been asked to explain the source and she can't. Where's the persecution coming from? If she didn't steal money would the EFCC be chasing after her? She fraudulently opened a dom account in someone else's name but with her signature. She's even lucky she's not been charged to court based on that fraudulent offence. The EFCC is even giving her small respect and she's busy making noise.

OBAGADAFFI:
The allegations against our client by the EFCC were duly investigated by the UK authorities and other international bodies who found the reports baseless and thereupon issued the visa and other travel documents to our client.”


So after EFCC gragra, she still got her VISA.

Hmm

It's funny how people can't smell lies and propaganda even when it punches them in the face. The EFCC cannot write the British government not to issue anyone a Visa except the British embassy asked for the expert opinion of the EFCC. Patience should release documents to prove that the EFCC wrote the British government and documents to prove that the British government exonerated her after investigating her.
Tissue of lies.

Propaganda post.
That one or two people wore it doesn't mean "Youths" wore it. Same thing they did the other day when Patience was invited for questioning by the EFCC and Jonathan was visiting the north. One or two thugs were organised to scream "sai Jonathan" and one nonentity came to post on nairaland that Northerners want Jonathan back. I'm not surprised they're pulling another stunt because Jonathan has been invited to the house of Reps concerning his Malabu dealings.

Ekiti state money in action. After looting from the 1.2billion poultry project to build houses for his mum in Ibadan and after spending Jonathan's Largesse on Ozekhome and his house in Banana Island and the one he used his sister to buy in Abuja, I wonder what he's leaving behind for the people of Ekiti. Shame!

Magu came in in 2015. Are we going to harass Magu for The incompetence of whoever was head of anti corruption agencies when Abachas wife was first lady? Besides if anyone has a corruption petition against Turai Yar'adua or Maryam Abacha today, the person is free to drop the petition at the EFCC odfice. Least we forget, Jonathan's wife came into the picture when the EFCC was prosecuting someone else entirely and stumbled on money whose source and ownership no one knew. Patience was the one that came to claim money whose source she couldn't explain.

Governor Of a state admitting he waived the tax payable to a state that is bankrupt for his former friend while this said former friends son (Davido) goes around flaunting money and houses on the internet. These people are indirectly stealing from Osun state! The tax from Adeleke University is Osun State money not Davido's father's money or Aregbes money.

______again he goes calling names and still refrencing a constitution provision that he erroneously interpreted___once again I will still ask if you cannot state your opinion without attacks and name calling___I will not join issues with you on your erroneous interpretation of the constitution neither on your attacks and name calling because some of us still understand the rules of General discourse____so back to the topic the powers of the executive and the legislature as enshrined in the constitution are complimentry____the executive appoints while the legislature vets and confirms or rejects____there are well designated exceptions like the kitchen cabinets and personal assistants___theefcc chairman position does not fall into this category______until the executive lesrns to respect this seperstion there will always be palpable tension in the polity___if and when a presidential appointee flouts these rules the president is supposed to caution the appointee___thats why is pretty disturbing that an acting president Himself will have the time to make controversial statements that can heat up the polity___again please be more civil in your posts nairaland is not a motor park where vague and foul language is used randomly___you are blessed once again a

Yet another nonsense post full of assumptions and with no reference to the Constitution or laws. If i erroneously quoted a section of the Constitution what is the correct interpretation? You're just talking and saying nothing at the same time! Only a deeply dogmatic person can pull this off.
Oga pls shut up and go and sleep. It's not by force to post on NL.

dadexcel:
------------he goes attacking and insulting yet again haba cant you just voice your opinion without insults_____again you go quoting your idols and mis interpreting the constitution____if indeed your interpretation is that straight how come ministers are still subject to national assembly scrutiny and confirmation__are they notpresidents appointees___please even if your indeed a lawyer kindly avoid trading ongrounds you have not properly researched on____and rely more on your in depth study of the constitution rather than what some politicaly avouched lawyers say to the media____also do well to study the functions of the three arms of government as well as seperation of powers___most importantly desist from insulting faceless social media contributors isnot civil___we are blessed

If telling you that everything you're saying is trash constitutes "insulting you" then you must be a Lilly livered individual. Your response to the points I raised is "how come..." Imagine! You have no points or argument. You can't quote the law or the Constitution to back whatever your argument is and you're here saying nonsense to get likes and confuse the ignorant like yourself. Nairaland should find a way of weeding out ignorant and empty contributors like you, just like Facebook is doing.

... Hmmmmm interesting times.. When I spoke against this rather careless and unguided comment by the acting president yesterday one fellow by name duni04 came after me with insults and all manner... Offcourse there was no need to reply him, his defence of the reckless comments by osibanjo I a further proof of the point I made yesterday. We the youths of thus country need to start reading more, we need to devoid our minds of false hoods and out right lies these politicians feed us with and find out the true state of things. The Attorney General could not defend the acting president because the comments a part from not being correct is also careless and misleading. It ends up over heating the already tensed political space. The youths should wake up and read up so as to lead up..... God bless us

Here you are talking nonsense again and mentioning me. Do you know the law at all? Please speak factually and intelligently without making populist statements. You're just trying to sound like you're making sense while all you're saying is trash. Section 171 of the Constitution the Federal Republic of Nigeria is clear on the appointments a President can make. The EFCC act is inferior to the Constitution. What part of this don't you understand? Osinbajo is a Professor of Law! Itse Sagay is a Professor of Constitutional Law! Femi Falana is a respected SAN and author of Law reports! Are you more learned than they are on constitutional issues? What is wrong with you?

The Op should be specific becaus all I see and hear is how Oduduwa Republic is trying all possible means to ensure their Arewa masters doesn't kick Osibanjo the cordinator out of Aso rock and not Nigerians.Oduduwa Rupublicans should learn how to fight their fight without dragging anyone into it.

What are you talking about? Most of the senators who spoke yesterday against the Acting President are Igbo, most of whom have serious corruption cases on their necks.

dadexcel:
Its really unfortunate how ignorant the average youth can be especially when it comes to serious national discuss.... We get too emotional and triblistic over issues... Have any of us taking our time to study the under lying issues here, have checked the limits of executive powers in a democracy... These arms of government have independent powers as enshrined in the constitution.. If Senate confirmation is not relevant then the executive should not brother forwarding name to them.. You cannot Choose a part of the constitution to obey and the one not to obey.. Every provision of the constitution is for needed synergy between the arms of government. The executive has flouted these provision for too long including bold disobedience of court orders, lies and out right deceit. If we the youth of this country still rely on these politicians for information on governance then we will never get it right in this country. Let our hatred or love for one politician over another not rob us of our sense of unbiased analysis of issues. God bless us

Rubbish!
Osinbajo was speaking from a legal perspective when he said the EFCC act that allows the National Assembly screen appointees to the EFCC chair is subservient to the section 171 of the constitution that allows the President appoint, without recourse to the NA, anyone to the board of Federal agencies. Every known constitutional lawyer in this country has sided with the Acting President on this. Every first year student of Law should even know this. Instead of the Senate to do the proper thing and seek final confirmation from the Supreme court in order to set the Precident for future cases, they are trying to Blacmail the Acting President because most of them are under EFCC investigation. And you are here spewing rubbish in their support. Shame on you.

all I see here on NL is the collective foolishness of Nigerians. The legislators claim to be checking the excesses of the Executive, who then is checking the excesses of the legislators? We the electorate are the ones saddled with that responsibility and We're failing! How should we check the legislators? Is it by posting useless comments on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram that carry no weight whatsoever? or is it by shouting "Saraki olè" on the streets of Illorin? No! It is by using your democratic right to recall whoever it is that is misbehaving in the Senate or House of Reps.
Once these people realise that they are truly accountable to US, they won't dare do what we don't want. Simple!

ehie:
well if it walks like a duck ut talks like a duck, the senator said he was blackmailed ,who knows by who, I call sowore's journalism media terrorism, he probably calls his mark,shakes them down or if exposure will gain him more benefit than money uses his page to create fear in the minds of the rich,I can only sit and watch as the takedown begins, this will not gain him fans but only repel.sun tzu said be wary of the soilder that has nothing to lose,the senator, melaye and a whole lot have nothing more to lose as their names have been dragged through the quagmire of social media now.Sowore has it doming

Sowore did not shake anybody down. If he did, the former governor should publish his call logs or present the recorded conversation where Sowore asked for money. You should try to analyse issues before posting. This man was caught pants down with hookers in a hotel room and his only defence is "I was blackmailed". Not "i' m sorry for my irresponsible behaivour"

SaulRazor:
This man's private life is non of our business Sahara reporters..Our business is to to know the health status of the man we voted for to lead us in 2015 who has gone AWOL for 60 days plus now

Irresponsible post. The same former governor who implemented sharia for commoners of his state is caught in a hotel room with a woman who's not his wife and you see nothing wrong? The sharia law he passed in Yobe prohibits immoral relations, prostitution and adultery. I would like to see him tried in Yobe for promoting prostitution, adultery and immoral relations.

The rate at which igbo people are turning up with drugs in these countries is alarming! Almost everyday one of them is nabbed in India, Thailand, China, South Africa, Vietnam and Singapore. The FG should immediately declare a state of emergency. This is really an emergency.

P.S: This is not a tribalistic post

Fashola already explained the N20billion would be for unmitigated expenses like the two bridges that collapsed in the north earlier this month. Nobody planned for them to happen but because of their importance, they will have to be repaired this month. The minister said this much during the budget defence which was broadcast live. He even said it before those bridges collapsed and like a prophet, we actually do need this money to rebuild them ASAP.
Those thieves in the NA are just playing on the intelligence of Nigerians. They know the truth.

ayindejimmy:
That message was conducted by BBC Hausa.


http://www.bbc.com/hausa/labarai-39644765


The mistake his handlers did was, knowing the complexity of Nigeria and how some people already want to massacre Buhari for any slightly error, they ought to have made him do an English language version.

People around him are shortsighted.

Even I know better

Stop spreading false information. No interview was Granted. Garba shehu released an officual statement purportedly from Buhari. Garba shehu released the translated text in English. The "Presidency" later leaked the original audio recording of the speech which they leaked to the BBC in order to create the impression that nothing was wrong with Buhari, especially after that Sahara reporters exposè.
No interview was conducted!

OBAGADAFFI:
Oga cool down, how many Nigerians understand PMB massage, BBC official language in UK is English, why not grant the interview in English.

O have no idea where you people are getting your own facts from but Buhari never granted any interview. Nobody has spoken to this man or even knows where he is since he left the country. The "Presidency" released this latest audio tape. It wasn't a BBC interview! What is worrisome bow is that the Office of the President of Nigeria is making official releases in Hausa. This is an indication that Abba Kyari and his clannish people are plotting something sinister that I'm sure Buhari is unaware of.

fiizznation:
lol. These guys are funny. BBC hausa interviewed the president and people expected buhari to speak English to a hausa service

oga pls confirm ur facts before typing. Nobody interviewed Buhari. The "Presidency" released an audio tape purporting to be from Buhari and which was similarly aired on the BBC. The absurdity of a sitting President authorising an official government release in his native language is just mind blowing. Buhari has really gone senile.

http://punchng.com/sallah-buharis-audio-message-in-hausa-draws-criticisms/

I used to be pro buhari before but events of the past few months have completely altered my inclinations. I think Sahara reporters is spot on when they say Buhari is senile and is unaware of his surroundings. How can a serving president that knows that there are currently deep seated ethnic agitation in the country, come out and address the country in his ethnic language. This is the number one evidence that truly, Buhari has lost his reasoning.

Next time the DSS should just give him "tea" in prison. The guys drama is very unnecessary. We have better issues to deal with in this country than one stupid and clueless tout who was caught like a teenager, pants down in a hotel with a hooker while his wife was pregnant in another country. Some hero....

GTB should drop Q1 any moment now

rotexsky:
The said 100 million as stated here is not to be paid by the surety,it is only to be paid by the surety if the accused person jumps bail otherwise the surety will arrested and prosecuted,it seems a lot of persons in this forum do not actually know this

You actually have to present evidence that you have that money to the court.

Now that the EFCC is chooking eye in everyone's business, who in his right senses will cone out and say he wants to volunteer his N100million for Kanu? I doubt he'll meet those bail conditions

BullBearMkt:
...One Love bro (@ihedioramma voice)

I hate that guys voice

BullBearMkt:
...yes, as he asked if people knew what they were doing in OANDO & TRANSCORP and prices appreciated >30% & >45% respectively before they pullback

you never give up. Those are my personal views anyway. I would never put my money in those kinds of stocks irrespective of the technicals..again. I now live and swear by CANSLIM

BullBearMkt:
...1st to raise hand when results was bAD

How do you mean? I've never liked Diamonds fundamentals and I've always said so even before they dropped their results. In truth I was even jolted bythe 15k EPS.

DeRuggedProf:
Is FBNH a good buy?
just for the records....

I'm not playing that game with you. I'm very consistent irrespective of whichever stock is involved. Of course people made cool money off diamond from 0.82 to 0.95. But the risk was crazy and phenomenal. That result could have dropped anytime. That's apart from the fact that the result was conveniently eased in after the big boys had left the building.
