FallenShitHole:

Mumu, the scene happened somewhere in Pakistan, the video is on the internet. Your hatred for Igbos will swallow you soon. Leprosy infested illiterate, i am sure you have learnt your lesson never to rush on to join in criticizing your superior Igbos.

Video is everywhere and you can't post it? Asian country with ABA keke colour and black keke rider. Uchu.

NGpatriot:



Do you go 200 mph when you drive your car, just because your car's speedometer says car has the capacity go all the way to 200mph?

What's really disappointing is you not thinking before posting.

Shut up he's saying the truth. What's the sense on buying a hyperspeed sports car to commute from mainland to island? You can get a low speed cheaper car that would do the same thing. These sort of trains are mostly for longer distance. Spending money on them just to answer fastest in Africa when same money could have been used to buy more conventional trains, is not wise. All of these are just for show. Where are the tracks these trains will run?

The want to sell BoBo Chicago as a saint.

Everything about BoBo Chicago is a lie.

NIGERIAN PRINCES

Nigerian Pres’ Svengali Tied to Heroin

By Michael Weiss

General Muhammed Buhari’s political partner is a former bagman for two heroin traffickers. But that’s just business as usual in Nigeria.

Nigeria’s election last month was celebrated as an unlikely victory for democracy in an African country with a tenuous record of free and fair representation. But the man most responsible for midwifing General Muhammed Buhari’s ballot triumph over current President Goodluck Jonathan has a spotty CV. Former Lagos provincial governor Bola Tinubu, affectionately nicknamed the Jagaban, is today seen as a shrewd if not “deeply Machiavellian” Svengali in Nigeria’s politics as well as the architect of a hugely successful anti-corruption platform. But 20 years ago he had to forfeit nearly half a million dollars to the U.S. Treasury Department after being named as an accomplice in a white heroin-trafficking and money-laundering ring that stretched from West Africa to the U.S. Midwest.

Although his case has been bandied about the Nigerian press for years, Tinubu’s involvement in a federal drug and racketeering investigation waged jointly by the DEA, FBI, and IRS has gone unreported elsewhere, even after his ascendance to Karl Rove-like status last month. A recent gauzy Financial Times profile of him, for instance, neglected to mention that two decades ago Tinubu was identified as a bagman for two Nigerian heroin movers who operated out of Chicago and Hammond, Indiana. They were Adegboyega Mueez Akande and Abiodun Agbele, Akande’s nephew, who was exposed to law enforcement after selling white heroin first to Lee Andrew Edwards, another dealer later jailed for trying to murder a federal agent, and then to an undercover cop.

In a 1993 court docket from the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of Illinois, which The Daily Beast obtained from Sahara Reporters, a Nigeria-focused news outlet, IRS Special Agent Kevin Moss said that Akande had run the white heroin ring in the late 1980s until 1990, when he handed off the U.S arm of the business to his nephew, who had arrived in 1988. Akande then returned to Nigeria but continued to oversee the operation from abroad with the help of others at home and in the United States, including his relatives. One of the individuals identified in his cartel by Moss was Tinubu, then a Chicago State University-educated accountant working as a treasurer for Mobil Oil Nigeria Ltd, a subsidiary of energy giant Mobil Oil, which was still a few years shy of its famous merger with Exxon in 1999.

In the biography section of his official website, Tinubu is described as having emigrated to the United States in 1975 “in search of the proverbial Golden Fleece with a heart brimming with unrelenting determination to achieve his visions.” This is certainly one way to describe his tenure stateside.

In 1989, Moss said in an affidavit, Tinubu established an individual money market account, into which he deposited $1,000 in traveler’s checks, and a negotiable order of withdrawal account (NOW) at First Heritage Bank in Country Club Hills, Illinois. The address Tinubu gave the bank was the same as the listed headquarters of Globe-Link International, the front company owned by Akande and his relatives.

“There’s a trend of various Nigerian politicians at the highest levels involved in dodgy business deals around the world, in property and cash.”

Bank employees told Moss that Akande had personally introduced them to Tinubu in December 1989 when who also opened a joint checking account with his wife, Oluremi Tinubu, who already kept a joint account with Akande’s wife at First Heritage. Five days after the NOW account was opened, $80,000 was wired into it from a bank in Houston maintained by one of Akande’s relatives. Tinubu would later use the NOW account to buy a $10,000 Certificate of Deposit for an $8,000 was wired into it from a bank in Houston maintained by one of Akande’s relatives. Tinubu would later use the NOW account to buy a $10,000 Certificate of Deposit for an $8,000 car loan, listing Akande as his cousin on the application.

At the time, Tinubu’s take home as a Mobil Oil Nigeria executive was a mere $2,400 a month and he claimed not to have any other revenue streams. Yet he still managed to deposit $661,000 into his individual money market account in 1990 and then another $1,216,500 a year later. He also opened more accounts with Citibank in its worldwide personal banking unit, transferring over half a million dollars from his First Heritage money market account into one of them in early 1991.

Mobil Oil Nigeria told Moss that Tinubu’s role at the company never involved transferring large sums of money between banks and that it didn’t keep deposits in any institutions in the south suburbs of Chicago, where First Heritage was based. Moreover, although Tinubu moved back to Nigeria in 1983, he neglected to file U.S. income tax returns after 1984 despite having sizable, interest-generating deposits in American banks. All of this was enough to persuade a magistrate judge of the Northern District to issue seizure warrants for Tinubu’s First Heritage and Citibank accounts. Collectively, more than $1.4 million belonging to the Nigerian was confiscated.

Tinubu gave differing accounts for his wealth to Moss. In one phone call from Nigeria, shortly after the U.S. Treasury seized his money, he admitted to wiring $100,000 to Akande’s Houston bank account and to receiving the $80,000 from Akande into his First Heritage account. Tinubu also said that apart from one other account in Fairfax, Virginia, he had no other money stashed in U.S. banks.

Except that there were other accounts. Citibank has a worldwide banking division known as Citibank International where Tinubu stashed an additional $550,000. He also controlled an entity called Compass Finance and Investments Company Ltd., of which Akande and Agbele were directors. Still another nexus of money transfers was uncovered by federal investigators, with cash moving from First Heritage to Citibank to Citibank International, where it wound up in Tinubu’s personal accounts and in those belonging to Compass Finance and Investments. In a follow-up exchange with law enforcement officers, Tinubu changed his story. Just days after conceding that he’d sent and received money to and from Akande, he insisted that he had no financial or business dealings with Akande or Agbele.

There’s no evidence that Tinubu was ever indicted for any crime. He eventually settled with the district court, turning over $460,000 of the seized $1.4 million, with the remainder released back to him. The Beast tried repeatedly to contact Marsha McClellan, the U.S. attorney who prosecuted the case, but was unsuccessful.

“I’m not surprised at all,” said Virginia Comolli, a specialist on Nigeria and author of Boko Haram: Nigeria’s Islamist Insurgency. “There’s a trend of various Nigerian politicians at the highest levels involved in dodgy business deals around the world, in property and cash. Even ones who seem fairly clean turn out to have some dark histories.” The perfect case in point is Tinubu’s political project and new president-elect of Nigeria, General Muhammed Buhari, who in 1983 helped overthrow a democratically elected government in a military coup d’etat on the grounds that the government was undisciplined and corrupt. “He resorted to brutal methods, beating up people for not queuing properly and imposing limitations on the media,” Comolli said. “I think a lot of the votes Buhari got were anti-Jonathan rather than pro-Buhari.”

But no doubt, many also came from a savvy fusion of political factions. In February 2013, Tinubu successfully merged his own influential Action Congress party with Buhari’s Congress for Progressive Change, resulting in the All Progressives Congress. The marriage united Nigeria’s most populous northwest and southwest regions and the ensuing campaign was billed by Tinubu as a “commonsense revolution” against a corrupt and venal incumbency which, in its five years in power, had seen the terrorist group and newly-minted ISIS affiliate Boko Haram thrive. Buhari swept the election with 2.7 million more votes than Jonathan.

Even before that trouncing, howeverTinubu had a relatively positive reputation in Nigeria, according to former U.S. ambassador to Nigeria John Campbell. “He is widely regarded as having been a highly successful governor of Lagos state,” he said. “Together with Tinubu’s handpicked successor, Babatunde Fashola, Lagos has seen dramatic improvements in everything from practical stuff like garbage collection to the collection of taxes and the provision of public services,” Campbell told The Beast. Though even here, the ex-diplomat admits, Tinubu’s good governance has been clouded by controversy. “He established a company to do the tax collecting in return for a cut and, at one point, Tinubu and Fashola appeared to be splitting over the percentage of Tinubu’s cut.”
Drug charges do indeed appear to be the sine qua non for Nigerian high office. The year 1993, when Tinubu’s assets were seized, was a turbulent period for Nigeria following the cancellation of a national election and the establishment of a military dictatorship. Moshood Abiola, the rightful winner of that election, was accused of narcotics trafficking according to Campbell. So too is “Prince” Buruji Kashamu from the People’s Democratic Party, who has faced extradition back to the United States since 1998. Kashamu was indicted by a federal grand jury in Chicago for being the elusive “Alaji,” a globetrotting drug kingpin who smuggled heroin into O’Hare International Airport from Europe and Asia. Piper Kerman, the memoirist who inspired the Netflix series Orange is the New Black, famously worked for Alaji. Kashamu denies the charges and insists that he was purportedly a counterterrorism informant to the U.S. government before and after 9/11, and that the real trafficker was his now-deceased brother.

Despite his party’s general loss to the All Progressives Congress, Kashumu was elected in March as senator of the southwest Ogun state. In what appeared to be a magnanimous gesture to the winner, he took out an advertisement praising Tinubu as a role model. The Jagaban was distinctly unimpressed. He trashed the comparison in a statement signed by his media adviser, claiming that for Kashamu “to liken himself to Bola Tinubu is for a small rut to call itself a mountain.” Tinubu instructed the “false praise singer” to go face the music in the Windy City before deigning to talk to him.

Shut up

Same idiot that is vying for president. Common criminal.

gidgiddy:
You should also add in the letter that the federal government has wasted almost 8 months on this case without the case moving foward. Incessant adjournments after the other. They should stop running after shadows and open up their case let the matter reach a logical conclusion.

Probably tomorrow the will add more charges which will lead to another adjournment. Tell them to bring whatever evidence they have to court let this matter reach its conclusion

They rushed to Kenya and brought back the man. Since then, its either amended charges or locking Kanu's Lawyers out or making one frivolous application or the other, all in a bid to keep prolonging this case unnecessarily

Enyia mechie onu nshi gi. Go and read the amended charges. The evidence are in public domain. Let me see the judge that will acquint kanu oshi with this level of evidence against the criminal. If our people are coward enough to let ipob terrorist run the East, then they deserve whatever the terrorist are bringing because kanu oshi is not getting out anytime soon.

Hezzyluv:
Meanwhile Boko Haram terrorist that had killed countless numbers of people are being rehabilitated (with the money of the same family who loss their loved one's) and reintegrate back to the society

Idiota boko haram members are being killed.

Finally settled with her nice man SIMP. Ambition of every LovePeddler. Get dumped by alphas, run to betas for closure. Tufia.

Solid ideas. This was a good interview.

FreeStuffsNG:
If the questions were not pedestrian, Jibrin Abdulmumin, PhD, won't have ignored his question.
The age of Asiwaju Tinubu is in public domain and Asiwaju Tinubu has already addressed the unnecessary politicization of his right to procure services to get a secured cash to his house as a private citizen. Ruffy should be asking questions on emerging and serious issues that help us know how prepared Asiwaju' s team is for the job. I know a few of such questions but won't state them here but asking a campaign manager for the age of his principal for such important interview is useless and unproductive use of time. Hence, he was ignored on that question.
Those whose only political strategy for winning election is by deploying lies, bigotry and tribal bitterness will lose las las. They always lose but still never learn because their hearts are filled with bitterness.
My appeal goes to the media to be serious minded. Nigerians rely on them to grill the candidates on serious issues of governance.

Please vote for Asiwaju Tinubu. Asiwaju Tinubu is extremely capable and competent to lead Nigeria to greater heights. God bless Nigeria forever.

You are actually very senile if you can't see how those two questions portrays the very character of the criminal you are supporting. Someone that is glaringly lying about his age and that amass as much wealth that two bullion vans would be needed to move his sharing money (from being a common staff in Mobil) doesn't deserve any reputable position in this country.

FERNANDEZISBACK:
Only blockheads believe in money ritual nonsense..that nonsense doesn't exist..
How do you think taking someone's live and dismembering him is gonna give you money?that person must be a clown..
Nigerians and primitive thinking dey funny me.. watch how they will slide into my mention countering me from all angles..

The only people making money from killing fellow human beings are organ harvester and paid assassins. That we have very educated folks believing this money ritual bulshit is very embarrassing.

nnamx4u:
From my last thread.

You see where I am talking about a girl I am seeing, she said she doesn't visit guys in their house

Through out this christmas. I called this babe to see her

She refused saying that she has so many function to attend.

We did not see through out this last xmas

We stay in the same state but not the same city.

I called her today and told her that I missed her and I want to see her

she said I should not miss her, that she is not dead yet. hmmmm

I asked her when can we see.

she said she cant say for now. that she has a lot of things doing now.

I think she is just playing with me though.

I just love her. I don't know what to do now

Move the fucck on. She's not interested. If she is, she will make it easy for you. Go spin more plates king.

gidgiddy:


Funny thing is that Uzodimma didnt even mention anyone or any group

Zuokwanu Ike nwa mpki a.

What does this mean?

Brexxit:


When we where warning them on this forum about the consequences of the jailbreak by UGM at Owerri on this forum they called us names like"afonja".

The same police and army they want UGM to kill are the ones now rescuing them from armed robbers.

Imo state has turned into a den of terrorists,thieves and bandits.

The funny part to it all is that Igbos on this forum would like to pretend everything is well.

By the time UGM is done with them, somalia would look like paradise to imolites.

When are you going to talk about the jail break in Oyo state, hypocrite?

Chloraseptic:
Any Ronaldo news ain't Worthy right now no matter how much you wanna force it down our thoaths.. even if he scores 5 goals in a single match..

Na Messi dey reign.

Any idiot can win balloon dor . It's voting award by corrupt sports journalists.

conductor20000:

I don't know any tribe called "ibo".

Meanwhile the Indigenous People of Biafra (over 70 million people) are "terrorist" according to you and your shoemaker attorney general while Boko Haram tribe like Fulani are angels

Stop begging for unity from "terrorist". Are you cursed or what?

Ofeke IPOB is a registered organization not a tribe. Stop being foolish.

arthurwillia:
If you didn’t take loan and it reflected in your account then refund na
Oga

Why would they give you unsolicited loan? Do you know they level of breach that is? The mofos should be sued, repaid or not.

gidgiddy:


So no evidence is needed? You brought a video and tagged the people in the video IPOB/ESN with no evidence?

Thats why nobody should take you serious

No it is DSS that is killing fulanis in Igbo land. Aturu

The funniest thread in Nairaland for sometime now.

BluntCrazeMan:
So, IPOB is responsible??

Same way Taliban is responsible.

chatinent:


Lol. Scammer do tho.

Not at that level. Maybe a government sponsored espionage. At this level the most they have access to are your bank details or they do random scouting.

chatinent:


While this is feasible, don't conclude until you have the facts, boss.

This is the most probably. No scammer tracks your location details including your purpose of visit inside the bank. At least not at this level.

chatinent:


A very successful scammer tracks your records with your bank and pretends to be them because their chances of scamming you will be high if they can provide details you feel only you and your bank know.

Bankers do scam, of course...but not the one who knows you already know they processed your account. Those bankers who scam use account of holders in distant lands.

How do I know? I track. I hack.


If you use the police, you'll spend more and it will be futile.

Oga the scam is is connivance with the Bank staff. The Bank staff identified her as very vulnerable after she assisted her due to her age, then forwarded her details to the real scammers.

Zyzman:

Why boss

Better network quality. Better customer service.

proeast:


You see how senseless you are?! This is an ecological disaster and it is the responsibility of federal government, not individuals to fix. If only you have brain and little education, you would have known this. However, unbridled hate and bigotry has messed you up.

You hate Igbos with passion yet anytime you see them struggling to breakaway and have their own country, you all will develop high BP.

Witches and wizards!!

Shame on you!!!

So you think it's only the east that has ecological disasters? How many ecological disasters has FG helped Lagos with? Always passing blames. You IPOB louts are sick.

Spectranet

TheSupleemLeada:


Idiot, he said anambra state in terms of the state government... nobody gives a shit about your local markets.

Idiotas Anambra state economy is inclusive of every economic activities going on in Anambra state including our local markets ewu. Go to school.

IPOB holigans.
