How Ribadu was poisioned, Obasanjo.
Nigeria’s former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, has said that the
ex-chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC,
Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, was once poisoned in the course of his duties as
anti-corruption.
Obasanjo disclosed this at an international forum on Third Tana High
Level Forum on Security in Africa in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
He also revealed that Ribadu created enemies for him because of the
ruthlessness with which he carried out his responsibilities of tackling
corruption in Nigeria.
Obasanjo, who spoke from the floor following a presentation on Illicit
Financial Flow and Governance of Natural Resources made by Ribadu,
affirmed that he had known from experience that the fight against
corruption attracts a lot of enemies.
The former president declared that he has no fear of anyone still living in
Nigeria, adding, “it is rather them that fear me.”
Saying that Ribadu took on a lot of highly connected persons in his fight
against corruption, Obasanjo said that the former anti-corruption chief
was once poisoned, causing a scare among concerned quarters.
“It was a matter of life and death,” the former president said, though
further details of the incident were not given.
Obasanjo said that once Ribadu was appointed, he gave him a free hand
and that Ribadu investigated him, his late wife and several persons close
to him at that time.
He also narrated a story of how a serving minister, who was his senior in
secondary school, was indicted and prosecuted by the EFCC, adding that
when the minister was found wanting, “there was no issue of seniority
again.”
On leadership, Obasanjo, who is also the chairperson of the Tana Forum,
re-echoed Ribadu’s submission that at the centre of anti-corruption fight
there was the need for willing political leadership at the highest level.
He, however, added that the leader also needs relevant legislations to
work with, narrating his experience with the bill establishing ICPC which,
he said, was whittled down by lawmakers, who felt they could be victims
of the law.
In his remarks, the Prime Minister of Ethiopia, Hailemariam Desalegn,
thanked Ribadu for his presentation, which, he said, highlighted many
good things about Nigeria different from what is portrayed in the media.
In his presentation, Ribadu offered measures African countries can take to
tackle illicit financial flow and repatriate money already illegally taken out
of the African countries.
He said that what Africa needs is honest and committed leaders who will
set examples with themselves by eschewing corruption and close avenues
of illicit financial flow.
According to him, it is the seriousness and commitment showed by the
political leadership that will convince other foreign countries to work with
them towards recovering looted monies stashed abroad.
Ribadu also emphasised the need for concerted effort among countries
and a synergy between law enforcement agencies so that looters could
be caught.

You can't take them to d market shey? Just advertise to ur neighbours and they can as well advertise for you.
So let me ask, like how many months or years do you notice they're at their fullest grown?

I ve been keeping some snails for few weeks now, dey ve laid eggs and some Hv hatched, I feed them with water melon, pawpaw, pawpaw leaf, lettuce, and few oda green leafs, I will add carrot too. Do you intend to sell them when they are big enough?

Yes and 'll surely eat out of them cos no perseverance should go in vain abi?

I've been keeping these snails over 2-3 months now.There specie is archatina archatina. I feed them in the morning after little water sprinkles. They eat carrot,water melon, paw paw and its leaves,etc.
I wash their shells usually once in three weeks after which they'll be fed as well.Their mating depends,interested snails search for others which are also interested and approach one another for several minutes or even, hours.
They lay egg as much as 150-200 and they get to 10 days before hatching.
Infact, it's fun watching them moving around.

God is really great!!!

A new kind of creature found in the forest of Nandurbar district (Maharashtra
- India). Its appearance resembles much with the human beings. Some
believe, it is actually a form of Goblin (a dwarf-like villainous character on
European stories). Gratitude to the the Creator of this wondrous Creation.

UP BARCA!!!
