Thanks God you called those 2 names, they are people Igbos hate and that is why they have to work with people who hate Igbos to retain their seats using federal might, same thing would have happened in Abia if not for Nnenna Oti, so don't bring that nonsense narrative, tell them to come out for presidency na and see if Igbos will give them support like Peter Obi....

We are not like some of you people who just support based on tribalism....
I don pass my message so make una continue wasting your time on people wey no send una…I repeat it the political class in Nigeria are the same,no one is different,so telling us some are better na lies…Tinubu,Atiku,Obi and the likes are bunch of thieves playing on the gullible people.

Who’s you guys 😂
The last thing I want to be is Igbo.
I was only trying to help you understand that tribalism has nothing to do with the subject matter.
It is only an old-fashioned fool that brings this two together.
Who said you are Igbo?

and who wants you to be Igbo?

I'm talking about Tinubu supporters here, after supporting nonsense into office you begin to call for unity to fight the same nonsense you were warned against beforehand....

Because you guys are fond of blaming Igbos for everything just like the guy in my first comment on the screenshot, so I will keep calling you guys out, because the blame games have to stop, Imagine talking about Kogi state, EFCC and Yahaha Bello and then somebody dragged a whole tribe into the matter and blamed them for not arresting a thief and blamed their history and you expect me to keep quiet...

This thing has been going on for long and it has to stop...

This one is either a lover of iniquity or just a dumb fellow.

Contractor being paid N1B in cash tells any intelligent and enlightened person that the source of that money needs questioning.

He even affirmed that he has a Bank Account as I guess he was asked whether the reason for receiving cash was because he didn't have a bank account.

shortgun:
There's nothing wrong with a contractor getting payment for his work

If truly Yahaya is smart then he should come out of his hiding and face EFCC….a smart man that paid $842,000.00 as children school fees included a child that yet to enter the school but he is a smart man to you….funny the school returned over $700,000.00 which shows that he is a foolish man.
My comment was made without an iota of emotion. Don't let emotions cloud your vision.

I don't like Bello because of his bad deeds but looking at this particular court case, he was very clever.

That's one of the reasons EFCC has not been able to get him. But just like every other man, his time will come.

Re: I Received Over N1billion For Renovation Of Yahaya Bello's Houses, Contractor by seborrhic: 11:23am On Jul 17, 2024
I don't understand.
Is the contractor supposed to do the renovations and constructions for free?
Unless the EFCC is insinuating that there were other monies siphoned,otherwise I do not see anything wrong with the amounts paid for the constructions and renovations.
Why is Bello also being singled out because in all honesty whatever he has done or stolen is no different from and even less than what the likes of Akpabio,Wike,Oshiomhole,former Kebbi governor,now minister,etc,have done.
So long these other people are not just walking free but still in power or enjoying the rich spoils of their office,so long will this Bello case be viewed as a persecution and not prosecution

Get the point my Igbo friends Eze, Chima, and Chika Likes me better than you and same here too. Why cos we are acquaintances and Friends. Only people who have nothing to say reduces interaction to tribal sentiments. When you travel a bit your eye go clear. I still took care of an Igbo little boy and girl last week . Cos their mum and dad went to work. Why didn’t they say noooo na Yoruba Man make them miss their shift. I would do same when the need arise . If you like continue your tribalism. The world is leaving people like u behind already.

Till election reach and you will remember who is Igbo and Yoruba and give reasons why an Igbo man should not be president and why Igbos should not vote in Lagos, that is my point, I also have Yoruba friends, plenty In fact I have more Yoruba friends than Igbo friends and have lived in Yoruba land than in Igbo land, I never thought I would see Yorubas from these perspective in my life till this Tinubu's presidential ambition came up...

Sorry but that's what Yorubas let happen, Tinubu should never have dragged the Yoruba tribe into his politics and I was expecting you people and your Obas to shout him down to stop it because Igbos were the major target and still the major target of his tribal politics...

You can't criticize Tinubu without being tagged Igbo and blamed for trying to destroy Nigeria and Yoruba land when it is pure lie...

Well like I said earlier Tinubu caused it and Yorubas allowed him....

For audit trail , that what we call aid in money lundry.
Its against their ethics to receive such huge money in cash . Such payment ought to come via a verifiable means .
Segkem2013:
Yeah, but shouldn't be paid in cash in such large amount.
Re: I Received Over N1billion For Renovation Of Yahaya Bello's Houses, Contractor by jattopeter(m): 12:07pm On Jul 17, 2024
The Contract is a culprit , that can term as act of Money Laundry.
Foodhub2023:
Der is standard and regulation in respect to receiving cash for payment when it involves large some of money it has to go through transfer for audit. Everything is wrong receiving that kind of amount in cash

You are better than Yahaya Bello in terms of freedom as it stands today . Bello will soon be captured and I pity for him, firstly the court will keep him for a long time in detention without an option of bail . N. Kanu is an example .
I don't know what the running is all about, he have good people to stand as a surety for him in good amount. He must think the court is a joke.

Well, I guess I got it mixed up.
But I seriously have this strong disdain for tribalism. When you guys go ‘Ibos and Yoruba’, I don’t read your comments completely.
Honestly, it is disgusting and you don’t have to defend yourself by condemning the other tribe or applauding your own.
Just rubbish the comparison because it doesn’t actually matter at all.

The concern here is over bloated contract.
No it isn't about over bloated contract, you can't tell a contractor what to charge. Efcc are just creating a case on how Bello spent the stolen billions, but they need the contractor to testify, for him to speak up means nah only him know watin him eyes see for eagle eyes office.
The money he made from the contract won't be asked to be refunded, unless Efcc can prove he knows the funds where stolen funds, which is highly impossible. in order to recover such Efcc will seize the,house.

One one to steal funds is by using over bloated contracts.

Agreed, this particular case is using state funds for personal projects which is against the law but funneling funds using over bloated contract won't be ruled out in this case if the contractor is asked to provide every detail about the contract and also the contract bidding process.

I understand your scenario. But in this case, it was an individual contract, which have no state procurement backing, maybe except the government house project and provided it was approved by the house , that isn't a case.
Bello took money without Council meetings or approval for his personal gain from the state coffer. If it is for bloated contracts that isn't something to be worry about provided the procument commission and the appointed commissioner have its signature on it.

I won’t be able to follow up with a response to you again cos of my schedule. But let me try to give you an answer that would address your concerns. The Presidency is for no tribe . You have to play the power game, work for it and campaign for it. The question is are you currently promoting people for your candidate or against him. The Yorubas voted Obi in large numbers in Lagos state and that’s why he won . Do you think what they deserve is you insulting their tribe( not that it matters anyways)? Can you force anyone to vote? . Moreover Yoruba , Hausa or Igbo President. How does that put food on your table. Look at the bigger picture Young man.

You said ‘you people’ and I feel like you’re calling me a Yoruba person, but I’m not.
There are many other tribes in Nigeria that are not Igbo or Yoruba. Think about this.
What if every other tribes want their shot at Presidency! Competence goes out through the window.
Tribalism doesn’t make one see the true enemy. Tinubu is President today, not my choice, but Yorubas are not the reason why.
He got his block votes from the Northern States. Yet, some are blaming Yorubas.
Tribalism is a poor man’s mentality.
Davido’s wife is Ibo, S. Tinubu’s best man is an Igbo guy.
Hell..I can’t even say where I’m from because it doesn’t actually matter.
Stop mentioning things like you Igbos and you Yoruba, it confuses and annoys me.

When Igbos talk about the blame game on them and why they want to have Biafra the same set of people will come and be insulting Igbos, Tinubu refused to free MNK despite court order and the same Tinubu has not arrested Bello despite court order and yet they are still trying to blame Igbos for Tinubu's actions and inactions



The problem here is the person involved in giving the contract and where the money came from not the contractor ....
