Hope this would serve as a lesson to others, who believes that Nigeria money belong to their hierachy.
Kudos to Aremu.

Now that the heads have started rolling, it will continue to roll. I believe OBJ wants to use his remaining tenure to endear himself to Nigerians, since this is his last chance to govern this country.

I wish him God's protection and divine wisdom in his campaign to clean the augean stable of this nation.

There is hope for us yet as a nation. Although, cynical as it might paint me, I cannot but wonder what became of the findings of Oputa Panel and where all the millions recalled from the Abubakar, Abacha's family and the rest ended up. I might be far behind in my politics update but I don't recall the money been put to any positive use, if any save for fattening other people's already obessed Swiss acounts.

The 'big guy' has been granted bail.  I didn't think he would scale through, with the stringent bail conditions given him by the judge.  I am dying to know who his surelties are.

Man, that was a hell of accusation to be made against one man. I guess not from the days of Al Capone the Chicago crime boss has such been made.

But what has not ceased to surprise me is the relative ease with which Tafa Balogun was able to secure bail. despite the "overly" stringent terms. Also the court conspiracy not to let us know his "bailers" smacks of something like the "big boys" connections at work.

Its all good, this is Nigeria.

It smacks of selective justice to me!
What happened to Chris Uba?
The killers of Bola Ige, etcetera?
The people that failed to appear before Oputa Panel?
The disobedience to the Supreme Court judgments by the Federal Government , Re Lagos State VS FGN.
The Rigging of the last general Election by PDP ,with the full support of the Nigerian Police under the leadership of this same Tafa man , BEING DRAGGED IN THE MUD today.
The list is endless.

Tragedy has struck at Elere area of Lagos State after a Police corporal shot his constable colleague dead following a heated argument over the sharing of bribe collected from motorists. However, Police authorities in the state said the shooting was an accidental discharge when the policemen were playing with a cup of tea.

The shooting which reportedly occurred at a beer parlour where the policemen were drinking, sent other customers scampering for safety to avoid being hit by stray bullets. Some of the panic-stricken customers reportedly sustained injuries as they ran in different directions.

The policemen (names withheld) had gone out, Sunday, on a stop-and-search operation around the area between 9a.m and noon, after which they went to a beer parlour to share their proceeds. The corporal was said to have given the constable an undisclosed amount which he (the constable) refused, arguing that it was far below what the corporal took. A hot argument soon ensued.

Apparently seeing the attitude of the constable as an affront, the corporal allegedly shot him at close range and left him in the pool of his own blood.

However, Police authorities in Lagos described the shooting as an accidental discharge. Police spokesperson, Mr Olubode Ojajuni, said the two policemen were playing with a cup of tea as friends when the rifle which the corporal was carrying went off and hit the constable. "We are already investigating what really happened and at the end of the day if we find the corporal wanting, we will charge him with negligence because he was trained on how to handle guns," he said.

This is, I think, the very first thread in the Politics section, and from the looks of things, things have not changed.

Still too many people emulating Tafa Balogun around here.... still a lot of similar threads.
