This happened under the watch of GEJ.. same man that was in power when a former CAN president was caught in South Africa with monies meant to procure arms to fight insurgency in a private jet.
We've been seeing allegations that looted amnesty money was used to float airline.. Now I understand why the man said "Stealing is not corruption".

Who helped him move such funds overseas and acquire such property overseas? Foreign entities are complicit in these looting activities, they should mention one side of the story.

The foreign entities aid the criminals from Africa because they know that the stolen wealth will end up with their Government much later.. blame the stupid black thieves and politicians stealing from their own people to acquire luxury (vanity) abroad.

Chatgbterised version for the epistle haters:



The article addresses efforts by the U.S. government to combat money laundering in the real estate market. Previously, certain areas, like Fairfax County, Virginia, and Los Angeles County, were subject to rules requiring the disclosure of identities behind transactions, especially when shell companies paid in cash. However, in 2014, these rules were not yet in effect, allowing anonymous cash purchases of high-value properties in Los Angeles and McLean, Virginia. The new rule will expand these disclosure requirements nationwide, aiming to prevent misuse of the U.S. real estate market by corrupt officials, drug cartels, and foreign adversaries. Gary Kalman, executive director of Transparency International U.S., supports the rule, stating that the U.S. market’s stability, size, and opacity have made it a popular destination for laundering illicit funds.

In a separate topic, the article marks the ten-year anniversary of the infamous Boko Haram schoolgirl kidnapping in Nigeria, noting that over 80 girls remain captive. Despite the Nigerian government’s counter-terrorism efforts, Boko Haram and other groups continue to abduct people, contributing to ongoing instability in the region.

The article’s main thrust highlights the intent of U.S. regulations to curb illegal financial activities by enhancing transparency in real estate transactions. At the same time, it underscores persistent global issues, like terrorism in Nigeria, as examples of how systemic instability fuels criminal exploitation across borders. The narrative emphasizes the importance of regulatory measures in safeguarding financial systems from exploitation by bad actors.

Looting of these funds from the country is systemic, the looting is encouraged. When you see the amounts looted and invested overseas, then you see no reason for govt to be borrowing.

Same way Oyenma stole public funds to start his airline. Tinubu should extradite Oyenma to face justice in the US.
Tinubu and Buhari have been protecting Oyenma for 5 years now.

The money meant to fight Boko Haram gets diverted to private pockets.
After adopting Sharia criminal laws, they formed Boko Haram which fights for a Nigeria to be governed with Sharia criminal laws.
They brainwashed the Asari Dokubors of the Niger delta region that Igbos are their headache.

"....Also in 2018, a Nigerian news outlet described a tour of the plant by government officials, during which one was reported as saying the government was finally taking possession of the facility...."

Witch-hunting as usual. This is just the same pattern they did with Tompolo's marine academy. How can you have documentary evidence complete with government officials receiving the facility yet you still take the family to court ? Is it to waste legal fees or crank up estacode ? All our institutions have been bastardized by this party, Nigeria is irredeemable

Re: The $2.8 Million US Mansion Bought With Stolen Nigerian Money - Washington Post by advanceDNA:
This is the reason they keep saying Nigeria is broke...when just one public office holder that's not even the president, cbn gov, or minister of finance stole 2billion dollars....

I mean....just how much will the president, vice president, CBN governor, and finance ministers steal.....

Pple should stop saying Nigeria is broke and can't afford subsidy for its pple... It's fvcking annoying cos few pple just steal the common wealth of a nation yet y'all keep supporting them by saying Nigeria is broke

They are not fighting for ISLAM, so we Muslims have nothing to do with the terrorists. They are terrorists and they should be dealt with as such. Why calling them Islamic terrorists? They are bokoharam and Islam never kick against seeking of any beneficial knowledge
But what bokoharam is doing is a similar modus operandi as ur prophet tho....bring islam, kill those that resist them and take over their land, install sharia and start imposing taxes as a new government...

Before u get triggered...look at this way Mohammed was never one of the rulers in Medina right?? ...he believed in God after angel visited him right?? and brought his religion to the people, right?? Which is good..so that they can stop idol worship..

but they dont want it..it's ot by force..so why not just leave them alone and take his gospel else where....??
..I know u'll say they attacked him for preaching islam that's why he killed them...okay ..but he brought religion of peace right?? . How did he move from religion of peace to killing people and now conveniently took over their government installing islam led government in Medina...??

See where I'm going?? Baba..Incase uve not noticed that sounds like hostile takeover.. ...and thats why muslims of today feel its okay to do the same everywhere....u may not be doing it because u are civilized...but those who do it, do so because that how the prophet took over Medina...

See Europe now..ur fellow Islamic brother will leave their islamic states, e.g Iran, Afghanistan, Oman, etc...and use european countries friendly immigration laws to enter only to start looking for how to use sharia to take over the nation that saved u from ur shít country ... Does that sound kinda familiar to what ur prophet did??

Dasuki is a free man today.
Ill equiped soldiers are dying in the hand of terrorists.
New terrorists organization are being formed.
Nigeria has wasted billions of dollars and lives of personel fighting Islamic based terrorists in the North.
Muslims should look at themselves in the mirror. It's no longer funny.
Is the south east filled with Muslims too, for Igbo people to be dying in the hands of IPOB terrorists?

Is Ibori and other southern governors since 1999 also Muslims, with people dying in the hands of quack medics and cholera, because the governors steal money for employing workers to make common services and utilities availablehuh

Sapeleboy911:
I swear, it was very captivating, I felt like it should not have an ending paragraph. That aside why is Tpain not going after the looters of our Treasury? Even if it means him dealing with only the opposition. If the opposition feels pained, they should do the same thing when they grab power. In the end, I pity those shouting APC and PDP here. You are only shouting for the auctioning of you and your future generations for either a #200 sachet of rice or a #30k monthly stipend as far as Nigerian is concerned.
How will the opposition grab power when they are characterised as the ONLY corrupt politicians?

How will T-Pain go after the looters when he is the worst , just like his party? If he is not the worst then why should he not do a small amount of what Jakande did in just four years with far less money huh

Realdeals:
Jakande @ 90: 9 Achievements of Alhaji Lateef Jakande as Lagos Governor

1. The first governor to present a billion Naira state budget in Nigeria.

2. He phased out the shift system in Lagos schools in three months. He built functional classrooms to absorb those who only attend schools for three hours a day.

3. He opened up what is now known as the Lekki Corridor.

4. He built the biggest Housing estate by a state government at Abesan, along with five other estates.

5. He built LASU, LACOED, LASPOTECH and Technical schools to absorb the products of the free education policy.

6 He built General Hospitals and Health centers in all the five divisions of Lagos. He also upgraded General Hospital Ikeja to the Medical arm of LASU.

7. He created the Agric hub at Oko Oba. He also created similar hubs in Ikorodu, Epe and Badagry.

8. His government’s strict adherence to the party manifesto of Free Education, Free Health care, Rural integration and Housing for all, along with other UPN governors, created the largest pool of human resources in Nigeria.

9. He moved the Lagos State Government Secretariat from PWD to Alausa, which he built from scratch. He also lived in his personal house and drove his personal car throughout his tenure.
