He did not invest state funds into family business. Ptove it with a credible source and not gossip sahara reporters whose ownwr was contesting against Obi

This is Obi admitting that he invested state funds into banks where he has shares.
This is one of it.
Would u appreciate someone in Tinubu's government doing that?

Roger3D:
Pray tell why your daddy GOs don't bring their crusades to the devloped countries of the world? Why only target poverty stricken societies with little education?

First and foremost, I don't attend church, so ur steewpidity in addressing me as "ur daddy GOs" should be retracted.
Secondly, Nigeriàñ pastors take crusades to developed countries unIess u prètend u are not seeing them.
I have seen Nigeriàñ pastors holding crusades in Australia, Qatar, US, UK, Singapore, Canada etc unless u say they are not developed countries.

DMerciful:
I listened to the minister on channels besides I never said he is guilty until proven. I only asked if he is guilty, should his performance confer a pardon on him?

From what he has said so far, I strongly doubt he is guiIty.
There are so many damàgè controIs that can be done here, his company got a contract, revoke d contract or make them execute and make sure he doesn't get another.
There's no guarantee that the replacement will be this effective and a saint, the country has endured crîmînaIs who didn't do anything, he's effective and we are all seeing that.

You know exactly what's up. My experience at the Ikoyi passport office ,under Tunji-Ojo, was like an out-of-body experience as I could not believe the rowdy 'meat Market' where corruption bids were made openly and shamelessly , last time I was there over 5 years ago could, could be this organised and sane.

There was an Igbo guy, saw from his name tag, who took downloaded application from us and inspected it as first line in the process. Super efficient, professional and courteous. No demand for bribe at all. He inspects, advises you per documents you need and approves your file for conveyance upstairs if all is in place.

Upstairs oga was a Northerner who was equally polite and professional. Signs your file and tells you to proceed to front desk. At front desk, they provide final approval and you then go to join the queue for fingerprint and picture snapping.

That too was quick and very efficient. All stations were manned. They ferried everyone along in their seats quickly.

The batch of guys I went in with were all done in 10 minutes and many were expressing amazement. You then get a blue card with numbers on it . They take your phone number and tell you to bring blue card and your old passport to collect your new passport when they notify you by phone. That was it.

A civil and quick end to a process that had been abject misery for Nigerians for 8 years under Aregbe. I felt like cursing that man when I left the Ikoyi passport office.

One man influenced this behaviour from so many whose natural instinct is to extort, deceive, sicken, stress and depress Nigerians.

As I left Ikoyi passport office, l felt a mixture of joy and optimism for the future tainted with extreme sadness over the reality that wickedness and inhumanity of Nigerians against Nigerians had caused so much pain for our ordinary citizens for decades.

Passport issuance is now a process fully automated online, start to finish, in most nations of the world to the extent it is virtually a universal state of Affair. Tunji-Ojo promises this fully automated passport application status will be will be our reality in March.

We want to lose all this and much more for a witch hunt our 'slavers' want to use in keeping us down so they can continue looting our wealth while simultaneously maintaining us as beggars over things we deserve as virtually fundamental human rights?

Good luck to Nigerians. #EndSARS to help Yahoo boys escape SARS harassment they took to the street for yet some of those same Nigerians want Tunji-Ojo out likely because of his ethnicity and political affiliation.

Personally, if they succeed hounding out Tunji-Ojo then Tinubu should take that as his cue to deliver regional governance faster than he had planned. I am tired of a people so hateful of each other to the extent the average Nigerian now operates with a 'Crab in a bucket mentality'.

This is why Nigerîà never grows, the cabaIs use the màssès based on their sentiments, yet they wiII call it "divide and ruIe", now they are playing into their hands.
We will sit here and watch.

Alcohol sells for #200? Where? In your hamlet I guess

And you ignorantly thought wines do not contain alcohol too? No wonder you worship politicians

U are cIearIy ignorant if u think all wine are aIcohoIic, ur mentaI IeveI is too Iow.
taIkiñg with u is Iike taIking with a kid who is battIing with comprehension.

DMerciful:
He did not invest state funds into family business. Ptove it!

Prove that this minister is involved in the saga.

YourMrBoo:
You just collaborated what am saying.

So you mean they've gone back to the era of 2008/2010? (Rushing congregation)

Still on still, how the mighty has fallen

That was when I watched them, I cañ't say for the years after that.
The years I watched them, they do foreign crusades.

Kukutente23:
What you can't afford you sometimes hate

That's true, I can't affórd aIcohoI that sells for as Iow as #200 but I can affórd wine that seIIs for 100 times that amount and way than that.
I see what póvèrty does to people, póvèrty make u think people dón't have choices.

rejoice4eva:
Until psychophants in Nigeria that the law is bigger than anyone, irrespective of status, we are not going anywhere.
Let us follow the rule of law and stop playing sentiments

When has Nigerîà followed the rule of law?
Why didn't u clamour for rule of law under Abba Moro and Aregbesola?
How sure are you that he's guiIty now?

Gbogbowa:
If they can defend all Tinubu criminal act they will do the same with this man. Tribalism is a terrible thing

If u want him out because of his trîbè, then u are suffèrîñg from chronic tribaIism, his reforms didn't separate tribes.

YourMrBoo:
So they now leave synagogue to go to other countries for crusades

How has the mighty fallen due to an irresponsible man who was suspected to have committed suicide upon hearing a documentation of wrong doings and atrocities he has committed in God's name.

I watched SCOAN as far back as 2008/2010.
They have have been holding crusades in other countries unless u are not aware.

CabaIs who are Iosing from his reforms are playing u, u will not Iearn now.
There's no saint in politics.

DMerciful:
You keep saying what you don't have details of. Obi is clean! He left over 75 billion where others were looting and leaving debt

It is common knowledge everywhere that Obi invested state funds into family business.
So he's justified because he Ieft some and stoIe some?
U see the double standards now?

DMerciful:
I repeat, are you saying if he is culpable, he should be forgiven? Answer the question clearly and simply

Is he culpable now that u all are calling for his head?
What is the guarantee that the next person that will come in will work better than him and not be a thîèf?

SeeWahala:
So because he drives a vehicle properly and gets people from point A to B in record time safely the owner of the car should cover his eyes whenever they catch him stealing fuel from the fuel tank with siphon after every trip?

Nigerians sha . . . Sentimentality no go kill una

Maybe u prefer the one who will not drive from point A to B but will drain the whole fuel.
Backward pèópIe aIways think there are saints in politics, all these years the ministry of interior was rotting, from Abba Moro to Aregbesola, where they neither climbed the driver seat of the vehicle talk more of moving it from point A to B, but siphoned all the fuel, where were u with ur "holier than thou" attitude that they should be removed from office?

Kukutente23:
Tons? Care to share?
It seems you're just coming out of a beer parlor

I don't do alcohol, I am not in ur Ieague.

MrEverest:
Fallacy of hasty generalization. I'm Obidient but I believe this man is the only person in the present government who is working excellently.

Truly, from what he has done in immigration, he belongs to the few personalities that worked passionately for the good of all. I categorize him among great people like Dora Akunyili, Okonjo Iweala and a few others who fought against cabals.

Tinubu would be stupid to remove him because he is the only minister boosting the image of his gloomy government.

My statement says "to some people especially obidents" I dón't know where u got the generalization idea from.
There are obidents who wiII fîght to retain this man in office, I know Iots of them, I know one who praised Tinubu because he got a promotion he has been deprived years ago immediately Tinubu got to power.
It still doesn't change the fact that some people especially obidents wants him out of office.

DMerciful:
If truly he did a corrupt act, are you saying it should be overlooked?

Tell me which politician in the history of Nigerîà has done a córrupt act?
No country in the world where democracy is practiced u will see a top level politician that has not done a córrûpt act.
Someone working tireIessIy for the masses should be put in Iine and let off the hook, Aregbesola did nothing for 8 years, he did so many córrupt acts and nothing happened, the people dràggîñg this same minister are people whom his policies which benefits the masses is deprîvîng them of their cash 🐄.

DMerciful:
Obi is clean and you know it

Obi is clean but used state funds to invest in family business?
If any minister in this government does that, will u say they are clean?

TopBanter:
My utterance was not literal. Sarcasm bro. Meant to convey the opinion that Buhari regressed Nigeria horrendously.

I see.

TopBanter:
Bro, I am living testimony to the amazing work of this man I never believed possible.

Under Aregbesola last year, I was told my 'express service passport would cost me around 175k. They gave all manners of excuses from scarce booklets plus this and that to justify the whopping fee they wanted that would then be shared all the way to the top.

As luck would have it, I did not need to travel hurriedly anymore and chilled. Interest arose again when Tinubu became President and I read about Tunji-Ojo clearing 200k passport issuance backlog in record time as he promised to do.

I decided to try and at least know whether the dude was real or stage-managed hype. Went to the portal, filled the form online and paid online too. 25k passport fee and 1k card charge.

I chose my own date and passport office as well. My appointment was three weeks from application date. Attended Ikoyi passport office for biometric capture and was done within two hours. A record since I have been attending any Nigerian public office.

Two weeks later, message to confirm my passport was ready. Simply amazing. A process the former Minister of interior under Buhari had concocted lies, deceit and frustrating wickedness around, I navigated easily and got what I needed relatively stress-free as obtains worldwide whereas Aregbe and his gang have made same process hell-on-Earth for Nigerians.

Of course so many will want Tunji-Ojo out of office. If he has done this in 3 months what more wonderful things is he capable of doing for Nigeria over four years?

Conversely, we all know how much money the whole entrenched immigration corruption machine, that Atiku used as a lauch pad for his billionaire status, is losing daily. Awon influential oga at the top must be livid as fck.

If Nigerians are not too divided, bigoted and myopic to note what is best for them then this is a man to fight for because even if you hate his ethnic group, religion etal then only lunatic sadists will hate the fantastic job he is doing for every single ordinary Nigeria as Minister of interior.

This is not a situation any Nigerian should misguidedly side with our powerful and evil enemies-of-progress. Nigerians should put parochial sentiments, emotions and biases aside to support someone who is giving us precisely what we want, from his administrative portfolio, that dignifies us as human beings as others have long been enjoying for decades now.

Who does not want an end to the meat market corruption process, physically and mentally, getting a Nigerian passport used to be?

We now want to go back to that instead of the promise land in March, fully automated passport issuance process with no human contact, Tunji-Ojo wishes to take us to?

If you ask me, that is the gamechanger the powerful enemies of Nigeria's progress want to prevent him achieving because such will totally destroy their access to corrupt billions they have become used to collecting for decades via the enslavement and misery of Nigerians.

Few weeks or months ago, civil defense did a promotion, 25,000 personnels sat for the promotion exam, the bosses of same organization wanted to promote only 5,000 personnels, they sIated the money that the staffs who want the promotion will pay for their name to appear in the 5,000.
It was this same minister that stopped it by promoting 21,000 as agaîñst the initial 5,000 that would have generated alot of money for the bosses.
If not for this man, the price of passport would have been seriously hiked and it will be sûrvîvaI of the fittest, if Nigerîàns dón't know what's good for them, they should play to the hands of the cabaIs and Iose this man like they played into their hands in 2012 and Iost the minister of power.
In another 10 years, Nigerîàns wiII Iamèñt Iosing him.

ozo13:
but the man Bleep sha.i was heart broken the day I learnt about his involvement with Betta Edu as someone that took part of the money.I wish he is forgiven after asking him to return the money back.Am understanding Nigeria type of dirty politics every blessed day.

These are still speculations, moreover, there are no saints in politics as opposed to popular opinion.

Kukutente23:
95%?
That's a large number don't you think?
May I see how your arrived at the figure or is it just beer parlor as you've been mouthing?

Go through the replies, I made tons of corrections to ur fake history data.

Kukutente23:
You're really not making any sense.
The point has been made
Go and rest now

It's a good thing u got the point.
Because u are reaIIy confused about what's being discussed and what u assumed.
Social media is not a beer parIour.

Kukutente23:
Or you lack the ability to make cogent rebuttals cause the argument is superior
Rest

If u have the abiIity u think u have, u wóñ't be making so many historical inaccuracies.
From Rome to Nigerîà, 95% inaccurate, just bringing replies like u are in a beer parIour.

TopBanter:
Indeed. Yet the reality is that many Nigerians are too far gone in hatred of others to ever defer to their own personal need for progress that can only be gained from a working Nigeria.

Their hateful souls, damaged beyond redemptions, will always direct them to cut their nose to spite their face.


I cannot comment on an ongoing investigation but will only warn that if Tunji-Ojo is indicted and removed then Tinubu better replace him with someone as good or better. The stride the man has made has been immense and has left me, a cynic, speechless because of personal and verified experience encountered when I renewed my Nigerian passport recently.

It is the same Ministry Aregbesola used to dance skelewu for 8 years that Tunji-Ojo has reformed to become one of the most efficient and productive in effectively three months since taking charge. I hope Tunji-Ojo is cleared to go back to work and even press necks of enemies of Nigeria much harder.

The reason the society is down is because cabaIs in different fieIds wiII rise agaîñst someone cutting their daiIy bread and people will support them because of sèntiments.
If this man leaves office, passports will return to status quo in a matter of days not even weeks and people wiII lament, nobody is a saint I'm politics, saints dón't build society to greatness, the will to build that society is what matters, this man has the will.
To think that people will chose poIitics over growth and same peopIe wiII come to Iamèñt that people vote candidates because of trîbè and reIigión is funny.

Kukutente23:
It's obvious you don't know what you're saying. The SC did not delve into the merit of the case. That much is obvious. If that means the law was interpreted in your eyes, I can't help you.
The SC already has a pronouncement on ground concerning defection of lawmakers. Why do you think Tinubu asked Fubara to withdraw all cases in court?
It's obvious you're not so intelligent. That's the reason you make a career asslicking politicians

U were confident few days ago that they were gone.
LOL.
In few months u will still defend why they are still in office because u will want to make another sentimentàI argument.

Racoon:
Many indicted and convicted criminals are still useful in government offices under this dispensation including the notorious criminal who put him there. Others include Matawalle, Gandollar, Atiku Bagudu. A criminal remains a criminal no matter how it is painted.

Just Iike Obi.
No matter how he's painted.

TopBanter:
More like 50 years back IMO.

Can u tell us what Nigerîà was like 50 years ago?

Dicado:
As usual. This will encourage other criminals in the public space to continue stealing.

As a public office holder in China, if you're caught laundering public funds, you'll be sent to jail without any bail option.

I think we should do that in Nigeria. No bail for any politician who is convicted of a crime. They must be made to serve their sentence in prison fully.

That's the only way that Nigerian politicians will learn to avoid stealing.

So, now, what's the point if she can set herself free?

Have you convicted her?
What is it with all these online expertise?

For me, I love the structure for it's architecture, it gives a great skyline, but in Nigeria, everyone thinks they know everything.
