If you are someone in the employment of a public or private outfit, you will know what duty and company loyalty is. All the comments were arranged by the top brass of the then DSS. She was only the spokesman for the agency. If she was overstepping her boundaries, the DSS would have queried her or suspended her for misconduct. They didn't , so therefore, you can tell that she was by the book in her actions.

NgeneUkwenu:
Trash!

Why must Buhari throw Amaechi to the sharks? Was Buhari not a victim of smear campaign himself? Was Tinubu not accused of worse crime? Osinbajo and Fashola nko? What of Kwankwaso and Atiku? What of Buhari's wife?

You must be dumb to belief Buhari controls EFCC, ICPC and The judiciary!

Even the law forbids Buhari from interfering in the affairs of states. He can only probe, investigate and refer cases committed against the Federal government to the EFCC, while Wike will do the same and forward to the EFCC!

Don't be a hypocrite, we all witnessed all the mudslinging and smear campaigns carried out against Tinubu, Buhari, Osinbajo, APC etc yet Nigerians were not fooled, why now? Wike is just fighting for his life, knowing that his days in the government are numbered given the way Amaechi, APC are fighting him!

Wow, your love for Amaechi is beyond crazy. You even took a fellow compatriot to the cleaners, just to defend your sponsor. If only Ddipset knew about your soft spot for your demigod, he wouldn't have typed that comment. It's now obvious, that you only care about Amaechi, and not PMB.

The PMB government has entrapped himself and his vice. Expect a news daily, in a week or two to release an almost accurate account of the President's financial status. The unofficial publication of El Rufai's financial status comes to mind.

PMB's first 100 days has been monumental. Below are a few of his iconic achievements.

* Imposition and hijacking of INEC
* Decimation and reduction of the staff of the DSS
* Nepotism, bigotry and favouritism is now a criteria for appointments and recruitment into the nation's public institutes
* Flagrant abuse and disregard for processes and due procedure
* Massive corruption being peddled by perm secs and civil servants
* Consistent assassination attempts on political big wigs
* Economic decline and decrease in foreign investment
* A maligned and miscalculated security plan
* lack of policy direction
Among numerous other achievements, the country looks headed for recession and a large budget deficit. Happy 100 days.

GEJ's assets declaration, despite some flaws, was a more holistic account of all his assets. The bolded, was the main attraction, in which he disclosed his total worth in shares, not just giving us what company he has invested in, but the amount of shares, he has with each company. The fact is that, both him, Yaradua and PMB, all gave us a portion of what they are truly worth, but the difference is that GEJ, gave us the most accurate account, while PMB, under pressure, gave us a Clear misrepresentation of his true worth, with errors and omissions noticeable to even the blind

The customs officers will so deal with this man. He is not a charismatic individual, neither is he a shrewd accountant. What would have been required to break the mould of the custom officers would have been someone who is versed in diplomacy or an accountant who is good with numbers. This is just a sumptuous reward for Ali's undying "loyalty" and his monetary investments.

MabraO:
Abi oh
Expect wailers to term it asset

Dull set of people
Very soon buhari's hat will become an asset soon to them

Asset /noun: (2) (usually plural) a thing of value, especially property, that a person or company owns, which can be used or sold to pay debts.
Tell us in economic terminology, what the watch would be registered under.

No, OP, the watch is actually a liability. Go and purchase a comprehensive economics senior secondary text book for your answer.

You are so awed by your opponent, you chose to pick a pseudonym carved from his alias. You should seek therapy, to help you deal with your inferiority complex

Anyone who actually believes that this truly is the full financial statement of PMB, is an ardent follower of Sesame street. Sooner, than later someone will give us a true peek into the true financial state of the President. This is the age of whistleblowers and technological journalism. The APC, will soon learn the dangers of playing with people's expectations.

In a minute or two, this thread will be closed and the moniker will be banned.

In FCDA, immigration and so many other public institutions, the level of corruption being practiced by the staff is alarming. It has never been as bad as it is now. The civil servants right now are so brazen, that they don't care about covering it up. The APC has given a rubber stamp and clean bill of health to the various institutions with the so called Buhari body language myth. If you think Olisa Metuh is kidding about this, then you are living in a fools paradise.
Also, though the supposed public declaration of assets without specified documents showing the financial nature of the numbers, is commendable, PMB and PYO should know that if one iota of their assets is omitted from the list, then they are in for it. This is the age of information and so nothing can stay hidden for long.

Soldiers who were involved in mutiny, being rewarded for their disloyalty to the Nigerian flag and pledge.This government has turned the pyramid on its head. They will soon reap what they have sown

oluwaSmith1:
He has a point anyway..PDP is already dead

If wishes were horses, beggars and baales would ride. The only time the PDP will die, will be when the sun sets in the east and rises in the west and when the rivers of the earth all run dry.

Keneking:
Ok...political heavyweights of APC would soon come to support their own.

1. President M. Buhari
2. Senator B. Saraki
3. Hon A. Dogara
4. Chief J. Oyegun
5. Sir. A. Tinubu
6. Sir. R. Amaechi

to mention a few

PDP -useless opposition party...

You are the archetypal APC supporter. Uncivil, violent, misanthropic, malicious, mannerless, delusional, undiplomatic, among other dangerous vices.

Aufbauh:
Ben Bruce you are spot on. We know those crying foul, it is in their DNA to see negatives in all PMB actions and inactions
Sheared HYPOCRISY is telling us before the presidential election that Tinubu will manipulate PMB if elected and later whipping up sentiment that Tinubu have been relegated.
MUMUTOCRACY is rejecting Mr Ukachukwu Ibe as an Ibo from delta state but regarding a kilba man Pastor David B. the present SFG as a hausa-fulani man.

When Ben Murray Bruce releases a comment you find offensive to the administration of PMB, I hope you will show you are above hypocrisy.

Whynotthetruth:
Once Iran becomes very active in oil market and given their socialist stance, Nigeria will go in for a rough ride...

Iran has vowed to take back its share of the markets and plans to boost production by 1million barrels a day
China's(our major investor) GDP has started falling, and so have reduced their foreign investments.
But still our VP is promising free bread and tea for all children
Imagine hiring a Chinese citizen to run Japan's national bank. That is the equivalent of Col. Hammed Ali's appointment as the new customs boss. The customs will so deal with him. He will be the first casualty of TeamBuhari.

I seriously doubt that such action would be undertaken by the President. But if found to be true, I commend the President for this laudable step, afterall religion is now seen as unethical and a distraction from governance, in this new dispensation. Just yesterday, the VPhouseboy, was seen running his mouth, to the detriment of the President, on the issue of free meals for all children. This is a nice way to teach that usurper, about position and privileges. How there, he offer press statements, without seeking approval from the President first. But the President shouldn't stop here, he should also round up the pastors and send them to the EFCC and DSS for charges to be filed against them for Financial impropriety and possession of weapons of war. Please Mr President, keep up the good work. We are enjoying your type of 100 days dividends of CHANGE democracy.

The statement by the spokesman for the government, Femi Adesina only ended up adding salt to injury. It was a big slap on the faces of easterners. This is a government which is solely based on nepotism and bias, and that is clear for all to see.
Also, the reformation and restructuring programme undertaken by the GEJ administration is the reason the country's institutions and economy is still standing, despite the Global economic meltdown. But this cannot hold for long, especially with the new administration's lackadaisical approach to governance, their uncreative ability to continue on the laudable programmes of the last administration, and the recent events in the globe. If care is not taken, we will be facing the worst economic collapse since the days of SAP.

Gbawe:
That is a totally irrelevant example. Iraq is a historical enemy of the USA. Both nations are hostile towards each other and may even use fabricated 'evidence' and propaganda in an effort to gain the upper hand. If you think about it then you will see that lack of peace in Iraq is not a real bother to the USA. Likewise Iraqis will not lose sleep if the USA is troubled. The best contextual example is to imagine a US and Iraq security supremo working against the internal peace and security of their own nation because of political/ethnic bias.

Give me an example of a professional security agency acting in a way that threatens the internal peace and security of its own home nation. That is what Ogar did. She did not make a "callous and inappropriate statement". She went beyond the brief and authority of her office. Don't you get this simple concept? What would the world be like if policemen who should only investigate and arrest criminals begin undermining the justice system by going public to announce the guilt of those who have not been tried in a competent court of law? Surely this is a simple enough concept for you to understand and defend?

She didn't undermine the judicial process. She only indirectly accused them of questionable security crimes against the state. Was anyone brought up on charges in relation to her statements, NO. And besides what is the difference between her unguided statements and the day to day unguarded allegations being made by the Edo state Govenor, the DSS and the EFCC.
Also your take on the IRAQI gaffe by the CIA, is of more paramount importance than that made of agencies within a state. Just browse on it, and you will understand my angle.

Coming from the same sources that predicted Fashola as chief of staff, Amaechi/ Ogbonnaya Onu as SGF. At the end of the day a Northerner will get the portfolio. You seers never learn

It's no secret that the present government in India is a known lackey of the Obama, Democrat government. Shortly after Prime minister Modi's victory at the polls, Obama paid him a personal congratulatory visit. This supposed information from the high commissioner is just a sister government arrangement. Besides, the high commissioner is out of line, in making libelous statements without backing them with substantial evidence. I'm sure very soon an unscrupulous Indian oil firm will get a mouthwatering, sumptuous oil contract.

Gbawe:
What "comeback" and what "vindictiveness"? Would you like it if you are convicted of a crime publicly, without trial, by a security official who hates you because of bias against your ethnic group or political affiliation? What would become of a Country full of such security officers? Let us learn to put sentiments aside for the sake of our nation if some of us indeed love her as we claim. Ogar deserves to be sacked. What she did is not done by others in her position anywhere else in the world.

Let me remind you that her antics, in case you have forgotten, means she is even getting off lightly. Ogar's open partisanship was very dangerous for Nigeria in a 'charged' period. In most sane nations of the world she may even be charged with endangering national security. Can you guys supporting Ogar not understand the simple concept of professional boundaries and how she is not allowed to play judge and jury publicly to the detriment of the peace and security of Nigeria? Ogar should have kept her mouth shut. She has no right or authority to say all she did and she surely should not have been so openly biased, i.e pro PDP, in a job that requires the highest level of professionalism and neutrality. She should be sacked.

She made a callous and inappropriate statement based on the information made available to her. How, does that justify the sort of public backlash that has been dished out to her. Did the aggrieved party sue her for libel and slander, No. In 2001/2002, the head of the CIA, told the then President of the US, that the Saddam Hussein government was in possession of weapons of mass destruction. The US invaded Iraq on that knowledge, and after the dust had settled, found this assertion to be false. This things happen everywhere, so Ogar's gaffe wasn't the first. And besides, she was not a judge or jury, but only made her opinions known to people. The aggrieved have started theirs too, no one is talking.

powerfulsettingz:
The moniker above me sure doesn't have the IQ to reason beyond certain things

And your IQ is supposedly higher. I seriously doubt that.

The endpoint of this government, will be worse than the Holocaust, if care is not taken. No information was given on the reason behind her retirement. This is the change they promised us. Nepotism, favoritism, bias and ethnicity is now the order of the day.

jjlala:
Good news to start




let her go and meet her master GEJ to get her new appointment

Rebekkah Brooks of the infamous phone hacking scandal in the UK, was forced to step down from her job as CEO in 2011. Yesterday, she was rehired as the CEO of Rupert Murdoch's Newcorp. If this news piece is true, expect her comeback once this Vindictive, shenanigans government is ousted.
