You see why we need to be careful with the kind of news we consume, some fake news merchants will just sit down at the corner of their room writing fake news for God knows why. People's Gazette should not be operating in a decent system, that blog is more dangerous than Sahara reporters and Jackson Udeh combined. What do you gain just to misleading the public against your own country?, what do you gain?. Nonsense.

The major problem facing this country is CORRUPTION. This ten-letter word is in every nook and cranny of Nigeria.
True talk!
If Baba OBJ and Buhari wins this Multi-Dollars Cases,then Nigeria will be on the Rise Against Corruption!
It will also exposed the evil that Many Ministers , Governors/Commissioners Committed Against their Father's -land,as far as Corruption is concerned!
•Do you think OBJ and Buhari -is playing here- by leaving Nigeria to go abroad to testify in another Continent?
• That is PATRIOTISM AT Best!
-God bless Baba OBJ, Buhari and those Protecting the Integrity of Nigeria!
Learn to Commend your Leaders, when they do well!

Sahara reporters and Premium times were once the darling of APC zombies

Every news from them during Jonathan's time was a hit back to back

One wonders when they became enemies and parted ways

You’re selling your sovereignty

However, Buhari previously wrote to Lateef Fagbemi , the AGF, in January 2024 denying granting Abubakar Malami, the former AGF, the authority to enter into a $200 million settlement agreement with Sunrise.

The Nigerian government have been working against Nigerians. The attorney general have been involved in all corruption in Nigeria from the Shell/ENI corruption to the Ajaokuta $500 million payout by AGF malami

However, Buhari previously wrote to Lateef Fagbemi , the AGF, in January 2024 denying granting Abubakar Malami, the former AGF, the authority to enter into a $200 million settlement agreement with Sunrise.



The mambilla saga


Obasanjo challenged his former minister of power, Olu Agunloye, to tell Nigerians where he derived the authority to award the contract to Sunrise in 2003.

“When I was president, no minister had the power to approve more than N25 million without express presidential consent. It was impossible for Agunloye to commit my government to a $6 billion project without my permission and I did not give him any permission,” Obasanjo told TheCable.



Agunloye defends himself

However, Agunloye rejected the former president’s accounts on the project, alleging that the Nigerian government was using him as a scapegoat to escape sanction for abandoning contractual agreements on the project.

Agunloye insisted that the contract for the project was duly awarded in 2003 by the Obasanjo’s administration on a Build, Operate, and Transfer basis.

But Buhari’s administration was said to have communicated the decision to cancel the agreement to the promoter of Sunrise Power, Mr. Leno Adesanya, and Mambilla Power in April 2020.

.

The Federal High Court in Abuja presided over Justice Inyang Ekwo had stopped the EFCC from prosecuting Adesanya.

Justice Ekwo, in a judgment, also gave an order of mandatory injunction compelling the EFCC to remove Adesanya’s name and photograph from its wanted list.

However, an Appeal Court sitting in Abuja had stayed the execution of the judgment.

Agunloye is currently being prosecuted by the EFCC on seven counts of charges bordering on official corruption and fraudulent award of the $6 billion Mambilla Power Project contract.

Buhari: I refused to approve settlement

Buhari, on his part, denied authorising the settlementagreement of 2020.

“While I understood that my ministers of justice, power and water resources were approached by Sunrise and were engaging with various stakeholders that were involved in the project to resolve the issues blocking the project’s implementation, at no time did I specifically instruct them to enter into and conclude any settlement agreement with Sunrise Power and Transmission Company Limited,” he wrote to Fagbemi.




I only defended myself- Aondoaka

When TheCable first reported that Aondoaaka had agreed to testify against Nigeria, he described the report as “fake news”, insisting he only defended himself because of the “unfounded allegations against me in certain paragraphs 165 and 166” of the country’s statement of defence and counterclaim before the tribunal.

However, he was silent on how he got the details of Nigeria’s claims, given that arbitration filings are strictly confidential and are not to be made available to a third party.

Aondoakaa’s witness statement was a direct response to Nigeria’s brief of argument as he quoted extensively from it — a clear indication that he had access to it.

Also, Aondoakaa was silent on who invited him to make a witness statement if he was indeed not a witness for any party in the arbitration and, therefore, had no right of audience.

But TheCable confirmed that Aondoakaa was listed as a witness by Sunrise Power, which is relying on his witness statement in its brief of argument.

Obj is telling us that one of his minister signed a contract under him without his approval and knowledge? I use to take him as one of our smartest leaders!
UNDER MY WATCH: A MINISTER OUTSMART.... EHN EHN.
Pls after the case make them bring Agunlayo abi, whatever he is called to the street, make we reason im matter for street...

That is the problem with Nigeria too many dishonest economic saboteurs.

When the country should be moving forward they are constantly back tracking to undo the ills of the past.

OBJ has put his money where his mouth is by showing up, kudos to him as I did not expect that from Baba due to his legendary "ego".

Kudos to him.

Also, finally I am happy to see Malami's nyash is finally being open, one of the worst attorney generals we have ever had. Bloody pretender.

It seems you dont know OBJ wella?? He used ICPC to arrest his friend and schoolmate .. Sunday Afolabi who was appointed minister of interior in. 1999. He was alleged to have accepted bribe $2m from Sagem for National ID Card project.
Obj also fired his education minister, Fabian Osuji for allegedly offering bribe to NASS members to pass his education budget.
Ministers were not allowed to approve more than 25m without executive council approval.
When he was asking Delta Airlines to come to Naija…he personally gave his direct cellphone to the CEO and told to report anybody asking for bribe or favour from him. He also told Delta CEO to report any issues to Ambassador Andrew Young, OBJ’s longtime friend who was facilitating the deal.

Is it the OBJ who created EFCC that you are talking about? You must be a kid not to know OBJ does not take nonsense!

How many of your gods are bold enough to create anticorruption agencies? Rather they have bastardized the ones they met.
Obj laid the devious foundation of institutionalized corruption that we have today. Conduct a simple free and fair election, everything else will fall into place. No, he oversaw the worst elections known to this nation. You can go about deceiving those who were born yesterday.

Dude had national backing that if he wanted to put the nation in the path of glory, it easily would have happened unopposed. Obj lives in deep regrets every day knowing he wasted a golden opportunity to be a Mandela.

EFCC, his private instrument of vengeance? Grow up, oga. angry
