its very possible that obasanjo was the one who sent fugu to hell. . .very possible. That man will do anything to bring peace to this country. Remember the plane crash that killd the sultan of sokoto and other arewa guys. Remember the plane crash that killed all the top military generals in nigeria? That man is a monster. Just be calm and watch the marriage of the snake and the monkey(FG and boko haram)

Moderratorr or what do u call yourself? U are sick in the head, true.

ACN, Physician heal thyself. Lol

Wao, very emotional:

ASANIGBO20:
1) “I was wife of deputy governor; I never stole. I was wife of governor; I never stole. I was wife of the vice-president; I never stole; and now I’m the wife of the president; I have not stolen.”


2) “Since my life I have never, never, never been invited by the EFCC. If ever I was invited, I won’t shy away; I will go there and report myself. But I have never been invited by EFCC.

3) “I have discovered that anytime my husband is contesting for an election, people will want to pull him down. . . They will always come out with false story because they want to sell their story, they go ahead and publish their falsehood without making efforts to get facts.

4) “Incidentally, Nuhu Ribadu was chairman of the EFCC when they said I stole that kind of big amount of money and he was also a presidential aspirant in the past elections. When this matter came to him, he made it clear to whoever wanted to listen that he never invited Mrs. Jonathan to the EFCC over any kind of crime but Nigerians have refused to hear and believe him.

5) “Today, Mrs. Farida is there as the chairman of the EFCC. If my file was with the commission, she would have seen it to do a follow up on that. But she has not done so because there is nothing criminal about me in the commission neither is there anything against my husband.

6) “Where is the customs officer that arrested me?

7) When I was wife of deputy governor, there was no allocation to my office. I was wife of the governor, there was no allocation, I was wife to the vice president, there was no allocation to my office and now I am the wife of the president and still there is no allocation to my office.

Aregbe is the worst governor in Nigeria today

Buhari should go take a swim in the atlantic

Calabar . . . but cost of living is quite high

He's afraid of Baba Iyabo

One thing is clear, "a cocroach can never be innocent in a gathering
of fowl." Salami angered PDP in the Osun ruling. They did not complain
but the silent plot to remove him started then.

Wao

Salami: PDP accuses ACN of cheap blackmail
On August 24, 2011 · In News

Speaking to newsmen yesterday the National Legal Adviser of the PDP Chief Olusola Oke decried the attitude of the opposition ACN in the face off between Justices Katsina-Alu and Salami describing the pronouncements of the ACN as “cheap blackmail which cannot be substantiated”, adding that as a party, it never accused the former President of the Court of Appeal of any wrong doing.

According to Oke, the passionate way in which the ACN has taken the issue was suggestive that it had a special interest that smacks much like political undertone.

“Emotion being displayed by the ACN over this matter, gives the impression that there is something that meets the ordinary eye. The matter is already in the court and this is an internal affair of the judiciary but the hue and cry and emotions from the ACN is worrisome.

“The matter should be allowed to be settled through the judicial due process, but the ACN is weeping more than the bereaved in this case”,

Oke who noted that the PDP in the Southwest had accused Justice Ayo Salami of partisanship in the tribunal judgments concerning Ekiti and Osun state, said, “the National Secretariat of the PDP has not accused Justice Salami of any wrong doing, but the southwest zone of the PDP has consistently accused him of partisanship in the handling of tribunal judgments.

“Some measure of allegations of partiality has been raised by the Southwest zone of the party against Justice Salami, but we in the national secretariat have not done so. Why is the ACN weeping more than the bereaved.”



However, the ACN in a sharp riposte to the assertion accused Chief Oke of falling short of its expectations as the legal adviser saying that it pitied the country with the manner of legal advise being rendered to the ruling party and the Federal Government.

The National Publicity Secretary of the ACN, Alhaji Lai Mohammed in his reaction to the assertions of Chief Oke said:

“The bereaved in this case is the Nigerian judiciary and as Nigerians also, I think our party as the second biggest political party I think we have a big stake in the rule of law and in the judiciary. It is clear that the only reason that the PDP is saying this is because it is actually a PDP-Jonathan plot using some of their hirelings within the NJC.”

“Is the NBA also ACN? Is NBA also crying more than the bereaved? For their information, we have not started crying, they will hear more from us and we are happy that the whole Nigeria supports us.”

Querying why the PDP as a party was keeping mute in the face of what it claimed as the violation of the rule of law, Mohammed said:

“ So, why is the PDP not adding its support to the NBA. All we are talking about is the illegality being committed. We are not talking about the merit or demerits of this case, we are saying due process should be followed, but because they thrive in illegality and because it is their plot, that is why they are accusing all well meaning Nigerians that they are crying more than the bereaved and we in Nigeria are major stakeholders and nobody can accuse us of crying more than bereaved and moreover we are the voice of the oppressed, so nobody can say we are crying more than the bereaved.”

Expressing dissatisfaction with the legal advise the PDP was receiving, Mohammed said:

“We are surprised and shocked that a lawyer will condone an illegality, we presume that as a lawyer of longstanding he cannot see illegality and the rule of law being trampled upon, then this country is in trouble.”

CODER on its part also yesterday lamented the face off in the judiciary which it claimed was aimed at stripping Justice Salami of his position.

CODER in a statement signed by the Director of Research, Planning and Strategy, Segun Bada, the body said, “the NJC explanation for the suspension of Hon. Justice Ayo Salami is not only inchoate but ultra-vires. As a matter of fact, it is a general adage that “You don’t shave someone’s head without his physical presence.”

“Justice Ayo Salami ought to have been given fair hearing, which supposedly ought to have been one of the cardinal principles of natural Justice. If a man of that caliber is denied the opportunity to defend himself, what can we say for a common man?”

“The whole episode appears like an Orchestrated plan to get rid of the President of the Court of Appeal (PCA) in the person of the Hon. Justice Ayo Salami, for no just cause”, explaining that his removal was a cover up over the Chief Justice of Nigeria intervention in the Sokoto state governorship election.”

The group however urged President Goodluck Jonathan “whose seeming adherence to the rule of law has received commendation in-spite of pressures from enemies of democracy to let the case in court be decided, as that would save the Judiciary from what it termed further embarrassment.

Accordingly, CODER said, “The action of Mr. President must not be seen as been biased to one of the parties in dispute, given the haste with which Mr. President approved the appointment of an acting PCA. The President must be seen to maintain his impartiality to all parties with dispute in the election tribunals.”

DISQUS,

Hope GEJ makes the difference.

Hate him or love him, OBJ towers above all the rest.

Let Salami go. The same NJC that appointed him
are asking that he be retired. Let him go. Nothing will happen.

In some countries ex-leaders like IBB would be rotting in prison or stoned to death for all the atrocities and corruption perpetrated while in office - unprecedented Corruption and human rights violation. He should be thankful to OBJ for shielding him. I remember OBJ severally turned deaf ears to calls urging him to probe IBB or atleast release the Okigbo report on oil windfall.

Musiwa, please don't kill yourself.

Looks like this IBB and Afegbua are turning to f**ls really.
Let them wait, baba chimpanzee will reply them again.
There should stop provoking that man. They can't stand him.
This advise is in thier own interest.

Thief Thief Atiku

IBB should shut up. OBJ regime was by far better than his.
Ok . . . maybe because OBJ did not support him during the last election.

Shame!!! Shame!! Shame! on Afegbua for calling his master
"a refined gentleman officer" A refined gentleman that set aside his 70th
birthday to pelt the first stone at his superior. IBB suck.

Urging Mikel to pay? . . . I'm surprise at how
we seem to show sympathy to kidnappers.

These ACN guys are talking too much.

What is the essence of keeping LG councils and spending huge sums conducting elections into it and maintaining its bureaucracy?

ACN must not neccessarily criticise everything from GEJ else they will make opposition look silly before Nigerians.

You have time to even explain to Maclatunji, PeeDavinci and all others that come on nairaland to display their stupidity claiming to be more intelligent than GEJ.

Civil Servants!!! Civil Servants!! . . . they are worst than
politicians. Later all we hear 18,000 minimum wage.

X-factoria:
Guy, you can defend Sanusi all you like, but some of us know for sure that Islamic Banking is being introduced firstly to propagate Islam and secondly for the economic survival of the North.

Non-interest Banking is good. I am a banker of over 5years experience in Credit Risk Management and I can tell you authouritatively that I have worked in a bank that has structured a non-interest loan for customers before. What the bank did was to convert the loan to equity in customer's business under an SPV - Special Purpose Vehicle, so that it qualifies to share in the profit of the customer's business. We did it for a number of big ticket real estate and oil and gas projects. So you can see that non-interest banking is not alien to our banks. If the scope would need to be broadened, it does not necessarily have to be done with religious colouration. To re-define non-interest banking as Islamic banking is very very unnecessary.

In Nigeria that I know, things like this are never done with unbias intentions. Sanusi is telling you what he wants you to believe. Sanusi is a fulani man who subscribes to their life long ambition of dipping the Quran into the Atlantic Ocean.

Thanks X-Factoria. The bolded is very enlightening.

4shizzle:
A father shouldnt be condemned for the sin of his son. The man earns it so why shouldnt he be the chairman? and what connection does terrorism have with banking?

On the bolded
How old are u? Ok, simple answer, terrorist networks are financed by such institutions.

@Poster
Forget that Sanusi guy. He is a liar. He is yet to apologise to the people of Anambra state that they have collected loans from an islamic bank. He deliberately lined up all those his so-called christian directors to push home his agenda and blindfold us.What do you expect the so-called christian directors to do, to oppose Sanusi? Will you give them another job if Sanusi decides to frustrate them for opposing him? Poster, have you worked before? In a work place it is expected of one to align with his boss. These guys are looking for their daily bread. Soludo introduced three nigerian languages on our naira notes but Sanusi chose to discard that and returned the arabic symbols. Boy, Sanusi is implimenting a secret script forget him.

I hear that Aregbe guy has terminal ailment and is being flown abroad from time to time.
That is one problem with our leaders. Health facilities in Osun are in comatose. Aregbe like others would rather fly abroad for treatment than fix Osun health system.

Sanusi must go!!!

I agree with you poster.
I think the following ministers in particular are good choices:

Okonjo Iweala (Finance)
Barth Nnaji (Power)
Edem Duke (Tourism)
Labaran Maku (Information)
Akinwunmi Ayo Adesina (Agriculture)
Stella Oduah-Ogiemwonyi (Aviation)
Emeka Wogu (Labour)
Allison Madueke (Petroleum)
Olusegun Aganga (Trade and Investment)
Godsday Orubebe (Niger Delta)
Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi (Youths Development)
Omobola Olubusola Johnson (Communications)
Olugbemga Ashiru (Foreign Affairs)
Lawan Yerima (Finance, State)

Sanusiiiiiiiiiiii! The Hausa, Ibo and Yoruba languages on our naira
(except 50 naira note only) have disappeared. Sanusi has secretely
and unilaterally returned the arabic inscriptions on our notes.

Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely!
Amosun is turning to an 'Area Boy' gradually.

My guy, that deputy speaker was obviously bought.
Infact Sanusi 'lobied' all of them. Didn't you watch how
they were bowing to greet him as he was leaving the chamber?
