hmmm

oracle, i really like that...just like a myth, the poster says it all...it's funny

As a port-harcourt native, I don't want to be seem as taking sides nevertheless Cimonjorr is right and wrong.  Maybe because he's in manchester. Living in texas has not change my view as thinking of the world as a broad intercompany.  Constantly sitting on the other side of the river trying to put down nigeria/nigerians down is absurb.  Saying that ".....Show me where anyone in the world would rather prefer a country hide their corrupt practices and pretend like all's well.. or show the world how corrupt some people can be and their attempts to bring them to book... ... " is ignorant we both know this is done in America everyday unless if you are like the governor and martha stewart , you are bound to be an scapegoat.
On the record, I do not support the governor deeds neither do I support martha for inside trade.  My point, Cimojorr is Bush will not give d*** cheney, neither will he give his chief of staff up for a REAL investigate.it is politics.  Come off it.  Don't let America blind you, please.  Living in texas all through junior high and over half of myself has not made me ignorant.  White man is more corrupt than black man.the black man just don't have the skills to play it right.  Obansanjo, Atiku, Babangida, the governmor, Odili and all other politicians in nigeria needs to be investigated, period if they want to fight the war of money laundering.  This is politics, inside politics in nigerian and of course like usual nigerians have no shame.  The governor has no shame, letting citizens die of poverty while he lavishs their liquided natural resources in another industialized country.  He should be ashamed of himself carrying stolen cash from back home into a white man's country.  What is wrong with investing it in Bayelsa or port-harcourt, at least close to home.  Gezzzzzzzz dummies.

Did I just read someone reply noted " I hope it won't cause inflation?" Duhhhhhhhhh in relative of nigerians being ready to pay taxes. I believe nigeria has 500 naira note? o.k. Inflation started before the printing of the 500 naira note, excuse me but sometimes i wished i wasn't a finance major. I would have appreciate it if it were japan but look at the nigerian economy. Yeah technology is picking up but look at all the sectors in her. It shouts INFLATION!!!!!!!

I have heard about this news from some friends.  I was never interested in nigerian news especially online.  I guessed I am looking at this from a young adult female prospective.  You and I know that Obansanjo is a corrupt man as much as he proclaimed to be a democrat christian.  I just don't think everything is playing out right in the public eyes.  As much as I hate to say this....public officials are not civilians.  There is a reason why they are in public offices.  I bet you if we (both of us) can have the access to dig out obansanjo's laundry we will find many disgraceful things which recently took place.....say last week or last month, what do u think?  I believed that all politicans are stupid and ignorant in nigeria.  Stupid cuz they can't see the beauty of many industrial nations and make a change for nigeria.  Ignorant cuz they are selfish and cares not for their fellow nigerians (namely civilians/avg nigeria like my families.....obansanjo's so called change regarding money laundering I think is hypocritical).  Is like they only went to grade school and didn't even finish junior high.   And for your info, Bush will not make anyone face the music.  You and I know that very well.  People like Martha Stewart who are not in the club can only face the music.  This governor in jail is being made an scapegoat that's my take on it.  And I believed that it is a sad situation for nigeria/nigerians as a whole because it ain't gonna stop the corruption but only makes it worst.  This arrest is not for the sake of the mother nation but amongst rivals.  Think about it my dear.....

I think it is a disgrace that a governor of a state or rather a state official in nigeria will be arrested with no diplomatic regards thus he should be granted one.  This is another way nigeria/nigerians are looked down by other nations in the world.  I sincerely believed that although he's being made an a scapegoat, there are many others so called politicians who are involved in money laundering in nigeria. As a matter of fact not many others but "all politicians"  It is a good start but all those arrogants politicians would not want to use the U.K. for their vaults.  If I were the U.K. government I would start with Obansanjo. 
If the international community and nigeria herself wants change in nigeria, they have to start from the top-bottom.  Starting from the middle or upper middle is only going to increase the tactics used in corruptions in nigeria.  That being said, guys it is very transperant of what is going on with this so called arrest... think about it.  If the governor and the president got some beef going they shouldn't put their dirty laundry for the public to laugh at....geez As much as Obansanjo is in favor of catching those thieves and flushing out those bad apples, he should (as head of state) support the immediate release of the governor, maybe not publically.  Another reason nigeria/nigerians will always be apart and in pieces. I am sure Bush won't be so reluctant like Obansanjo if it involves one of the governors of the united states.
