People don't even understand how the ICC works. It is a court that prosecutes crimes that fall within its jurisdiction, crimes such as: Rape, murder, massacre, destruction of a civilian society by any means, etc. They have professional judges. The prosecutor's team will first investigate the case submitted by the plaintiff to ascertain if the case falls within the court's jurisdiction and also to ascertain if the case should go on owing to the fact that some cases may be minor or trivial, like an unintentional killing of a civilian society. For example, if the police in trying to quell a riot accidentally kills people, though the ICC has the jurisdiction over such matter but they may not go on to prosecute the case, because such is the tragedy of our every day lives and in this case ICC will only issue a directive to the relevant organ or authority responsible to be more reasonable in their actions next time to avoid such human casualties.

All these go down during the ICC preliminary investigation, the preliminary investigation is conducted to ascertain if the case can go on to the next level which is now the full investigation of the various evidences rallied by the plaintiff against the defendant, needless to say that at this moment the ICC is almost certain that the case will go on, i.e the prosecutor is almost certain that he is ready to prosecute.

Unfortunately, this is where Nigeria is right now. The coming of the ICC prosecutor, the chief prosecutor for that matter is to signal to the Nigerian authority that the result of there preliminary investigation indicts them (Nigeria), and they will go into full investigation and also to intimate the Nigerian government to be ready for the investigation because certain govt officials will need to be examined. Now, IPOB is claiming to be in possession of forensic evidence against the Nigerian army i.e. evidence that shows that the bullets used against arm-less protesters indeed came from the Nigerian military (and this is scary), coupled with video evidence. This is the reason why the army is sweating to brand IPOB a terror group. But the truth is that you don't just label a group terrorists without strong evidence of their ties to destruction and untamed violence and evidence to show that they have carried out such crimes like ISIS is doing now. For Goodness sake the Nigerian govt should know that they are appearing before a panel of judges, learned and experienced judges for that matter that understand the terrain and they want to present these baseless charges before them?

Predictably, some of us saw this thing coming, and raised alarm, but Buhair being a dullard thought everything about power is fiat. he ordered his COAS to use hyper force on unarmed protesters, because he is buhari, well I wish him good luck. Now IPOB has said they will resume their protests once they get their TV station running, the implication is that this time they could hold the protests for the time they want without harassment because the world is now paying attention. I believe this shouldn't have gotten to this level had Buhari not been reckless with his decision. Over 8 cases have been established against Nigeria in the ICC, I told a friend of mine that the next battle ground in the world is Nigeria. Its unfortunate that it is only in Africa that you see unarmed protesters been shot with such reckless abandon, and yet Africa will claim to be unfairly treated by the west.

TkesterA:
Things will soon get out of hand. Imagine 8 cases instituted against the FG. Well, what else can one expect from a country lead by a Nepa bill certificate.

I hope PDP governors would not convert their dollars at home to Yuan abi yawn. That would put pressure and exchange rate would climb to 50+Yuan/NGN1.

Those leaders have "damages" the economy with dollar business.

The clueless ineffectual buffoon cannot be a threat to his own local government chairman, talk less of what you're asserting.

The OP was simply highlighting the link between the current situation in the country and the likely import of Jonathan's statement.

Ironically, he is just like the toad in a pan of slowly heating water who does not realize he is being cooked until the water reaches boiling point. The witnesses against Metuh are squealing and the defeated ex president's associates, fronts and relatives are being netted one by one. It's more like Nigeria has not finished with Jonathan.

SouthSouth senators see una life?

A Project that will forever benefit you all you waived it off just because of Hatred and to bring smiles to Saraki a North central Senator...

Amaechi, Saraki and you all will come and go.. but that project will benefit the Southsouth forever. ..

The first attack is the wrong, the second attack is the revenge that is right. Revenge is not wrong I.M.O.

Am sorry little boy, I don't trade insult with kids.

YourNemesis:

The project is Chinese funded, Mr wise man.....

TheGoodJoe:



Amaechi did not scrap the Maritime Academy. There is not enough money for a new one, so he chose to expand the one at Oron.

Maybe you have not noticed the country is short of Money and we can not carry out such a project.

Instead if scrapping it, Amaechi decided to expand to achieve the same thing. That is brilliant and a good thing.

On the other hand, the railway project is another project that will benefit the Niger Delta.

The Senators decided to remove it and keep that from Lagos to Kano.

If the South West Senators want it or not is not the issue here. The issue here is that we in the South South want it and our Senators were mute.

Amaechi is still going on with the expansion of the Oron site to achieve the Maritime University. What were the Senators of the South South planning when they kept mute?

mich24:


Am sorry you can't read Igbo but you can take it to anyone who can read to do the reading for you.

No insult

TheGoodJoe:


Amaechi did not remove the Maritime University he decided to stop the building of a New University to expand the one at Oron to achieve the same thing.

That was a brilliant strategy in this time of limited resources. It is just that a lot of Niger Delta people are too sentimental with their hatred to see a good thing done.

With limited resources, Amaechi is proposing to achieve more, instead of totally stopping it.

HopeAtHand:
They are all PDP senators. They wanted the Lagos-Calabar rail project out so that they can discredit Amaechi by saying he overlooked the Niger Delta. Their plan is to paint APC as a party that hates Niger Delta.

Their hate for Amaechi will kill all of them.

emorse:


One simple question. Let us assume the project was never in the budget proposal as you say. Is is too much for the SS and SE senators to raise the issue during plenary?
