Many People In Obasanjo’s Administration Should Rot In Jail – Obono-obla by ijustdey(op): 10:17am On Aug 12, 2024
FORMER Chairman of the Special Investigation Panel for the Recovery of Public Property under President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, Chief Okoi Obono-Obla, has said that some people who served under President Olusegun Obasanjo’s administration are supposed to be in jail.

But Obono-Obla said as a lawyer of many years standing, it may be wrong for him to make such a conclusion because mere allegations do not make one guilty until proven by a competent court of jurisdiction.

Reacting to the recent comment by former President Obasanjo that some persons occupying positions in government should be in jail, Obono-Obla said:

“So many people in Obasanjo’s eight-year presidency equally should have been in jail. However, as a lawyer, I can not subscribe to such fallacious arguments no matter how attractive it sound. “

The human rights activist contended that no matter how attractive suspicion is, it does not make someone guilty, “that is a fundamental principle of law.

“Having said that, I think it is in the realm of speculation or rumor-mongering to suggest so, and so a person ought to be in jail.

“Was the allegation against such a person investigated? Was a prima facie case established against the person?

Was he convicted before a court of competent jurisdiction?”, he rhetorically asked.

Tell us one person Buhari prosecuted for Graft Issues

These people were part of those tried by Obasanjo during his tenure.

Tinubu's EFCC,DSS,Police,Army is yet to catch Yahya Bello, maybe he used disappearing charm ?

Corruption was lesser in obj's tenure...

Than in subsequent ones.

Efcc was even effective in fighting corruption under his watch with Ribadu as the star man.

GEG may not have been so corrupt but his officials were. Diseini madueke( whatever the spelling of that name is) and others had a field day looting.

Buhari took corruption (adding nepotism to it) to another level. He raised the notch higher.

Tinubu... Well, this one is on a class of his own.

He has broken the notch... I don't think he even knows what he is even doing anymore!

You are destroying your present and future unknowingly if you continue to call President Tinubu Tinupoo. No matter how terrible a leader is, God put him in that position. David even regretted he cut Paul's skirt though the man was after his life. Stop denigrating his name otherwise you will account to nobody in life. God is not happy when people disrespect leaders he appoints. Your future is doomed if you continue to denigrate his name.

corruption and criminality got triggered by Obasanjo's statement. What would we not give to have Nigeria revert back to what it was when Obasanjo handed over.

Apc is a curse

Shame on this man.
Re: Many People In Obasanjo’s Administration Should Rot In Jail – Obono-obla by Kobicove(m):
Obasanjo likes posturing as if he is a saint but we all known there was also monumental corruption going on in the system when he was president...

He himself even tried to financially induce some public officers to support his failed Third Term agenda! angry

Obasanjo doesn't have the right to say anything (whether what he's saying is true or not). Imagine Adolf Hitler give lessons about how murder is a cruel and inhumane behaviour
