Aondoaaka Still In Shock, May Lose UN Job

It was a huge shock for the  former   Nigerian Minister  of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation, Mr. Michael Kasse Aondoaaka as the United States Embassy in Nigeria on Thursday confirmed the travel ban placed on him by the United States government.

A close source to the former AGF told our correspondent on phone on  Friday night that Chief Aondoakaa who openly criticised how he was being singled out for the entry ban by the US government was still in shock.

The source also confirmed that Aondoakaa was shocked and disappointed that the United States government that voted for him in December 2009, in Rome to become a member of the governing council of the United Nations Institute for Unification of Private Laws, could place an entry ban on him without communicating it through the world body.

Leadership Sunday had last week  reported  exclusively that the United States president, Barack Obama had signed an order to ban the  former chief law officer from entering the world's most powerful country.

In a swift reaction, Mr Michael Kaase Aondoakaa threatened to take Leadership Group to  court, saying that he was never banned by the United States government from entering that country or anywhere in the world.

But the United States government through the Public Affairs Office of the US Embassy in Abuja, proved Aondoaaka  wrong by confirming the story.

A source within the White House told our correspondent that the United States Homeland Security Department will soon communicate the decision to place an entry ban on Mr. Michael Aondoakaa to the United Nations for proper diplomatic actions.

A check with the Department of States on Friday, revealied that the claim by Nigeria’s former chief law officer that the United States Embassy in Abuja told him that his visa was not revoked was untrue.

A source  told our correspondent that the world body was yet to receive any communication from the Department of States on the entry ban placed on Aondoakaa who was nominated by Nigerian government, and adopted by African Heads of Government in Egypt for the job of United Nations Institute for Unification of Private Laws governing council.

The source who said that the United Nations was aware of the travel ban already, also added that the world body would be left with no option than to terminate the appointment given to the former AGF since it is obvious that he can not travel to the United States again.

At this stage, LEADERSHIP SUNDAY can authoritatively report that the former Attorney General  of the Federation is standing the risk of losing his job contract with the United Nations.

Why all this time wasting and dedicated stories to Aondoaaka ?

Absolute power corrupts absolutel. That is the summary of the for Agf fate. A lesson for those in the power block now. Thats the way the cookies crumble. Gud for him.

May there be more bans for these nincompoops. Amen. May their loots be confisticated. Amin.

Do you remember what was going on in Nigeria in December 2009? We could not find our president and a citizen had just committed a heinous international crime. Yet, the former Area-boy General of the Federation (AGF) claimed the government of Nigeria nominated him for a UN job.

Who nominated Aondoakaa? Certainly not Jonathan or Yar'adua for that matter. He probably sent his own name in under pretense 

I thought some folks were doubting the travel ban on him and his two daughters because it was reported by saharareporters ? Elrazur got some explanation to do here !!!

He was nominated, I believe, back in 2008.

By the way, about finding the president, did we not get EXACTLY what Aondoakaa prescribed, happen anyway? Last I checked, the President remained as president till his death only a couple of weeks ago.

I'm seriously tired of this man. Esp dragging his family into his punishment with him

They voted for you before you were suspected of corruption. What kind of useless politician is this?

Thumb Up for SAHARAREPORTERS.COM, So, the story is true at last. Carry Go SR.

At least they (corrupt people) will know that the evil that me do lives not only after them but with them. Shame on U Aondoaka, [i][/i]

The Law that got him banned was put in place back in 2004. That he was finge-red for corruption is not to be on the US but on him. But on a serious note, do we have solid evidence that this man is guilty of that which he is accused of? I know many Nigerians were incensed at the statement that came from him back in December( or was it January) of this year, only to welcome the very same agreement when it offered up to them some weeks later from a lady in tears, but is the man really guilty here or is this another witchhunt?
