Its nice that u responded with so much maturity and u did ur best to pick my issues 1 by 1. Nigerians ar very intelligent n i am not surprise. U win because i also already agrees that there have alwaz been issues with the account of NNPC and the lack of competence on the part of the President, Goodluck Jonathan to tackle issues of corruption properly. Thanks 4 ur time n enlightenment. obailala: I am sick and tired of Nigerians playing dumb on this matter... Sanusi's side of the story has been explained several times on this forum and elsewhere, I do not understand why there are still Nigerians out there who still think Sanusi is the villain in this issue. I will try and respond to your list one by one: 1. He claime to b bold yet did not tell Nigerians what he knows about the fuel subsidy scam or do u think the CBN Governor does not know anything about the subsidy?To correct your awful misconception, Sanusi was the very first person who raised the alarm about the fuel subsidy scam but since the president wasn't willing to go after the cabal, Sanusi had to advise the president to completely remove the subsidy. There are over 1000 reports and youtube videos showing Sanusi calling for the removal of fuel subsidy because the fuel import cabal was defrauding the nation. You seem to be the only one who didn't see these. Good Morning! https://www.nairaland.com/459050/sanusi-seeks-removal-fuel-subsidy http://www.bellanaija.com/2012/04/16/cbn-governor-lamido-sanusi-advocates-for-complete-removal-of-fuel-subsidy-do-you-agree-with-him/ http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-16416861
2. He claime to b an honest and transparent man yet all his account balanced every year and only the year of his departure from office is when he discovered 20billion missing.To correct another awful misconception of yours, Sanusi confidentially raised the issue of the fraud going on in NNPC several times to the president. Sanusi wrote several confidential letters to the president informing him of the scams and calling on GEJ to investigate but GEJ in his usual manner ignored until one of the confidential letters was leaked to the public in late 2013 by God knows who. The matter became a scandal only in 2013 after the letter was leaked, but there were several letters which preceded the leaked one. Kindly go and read about the scandal before you make such a comment again in public.
3. What exact amount is the missing sum, our dear former CBN Governor should tell us because i remember figures were changing. $49.8billion, $12billion, $10.8 billion. $20billion. This is the most annoying and disgusting question which keeps recurring over and over again even after all the explanations. How can Sanusi know the exact amount missing when NNPC refused to submit their papers?... From his calculations, $49bn was unnaccounted for, several pleas to NNPC to explain this fell on deaf ears until the scandal hit the public. NNPC was then forced to reluctantly submit the papers which Sanusi had begged for for a long time. On receipt of the papers, the figure was reviewed down to $10bn (even Okonjo Iweala had a $10.8bn figure). On receipt of further papers from NNPC, the figure was recalculated again to be up to $20bn. As far as common sense is concerned, nobody on earth knows the real amount. Even PWC in their audit reported several unnaccounted figures and even PWC couldnt come up with any clear figures because the same NNPC refused to cooperate.
I know after all these my labour in explaining this, someone would still make this same comment of "Sanusi changing figures" again
4. The sum seem an exergerated figure. Sanusi is an international award winning banker and economist and wouldn't just wake up one day to speak rubbish, go and read about the man. Wait until a proper audit is done before you conclude on anything. It beats me how Nigerians are raped by their leaders yet they end up being the ones defending the devilish leaders.
5. I personally think that if Sanusi had issues with the President and believes the best way to show Nigerians he is a pious man is by exposing issues that even he was part of in the past and also tell Nigerian his boss is bad and arosing hatred 4 the president n sentiments 4 himsef should remember that what goes around alwaz comes around. Can you please just shut up and think. Sanusi made several attempts to confidentially complain to Jonathan about what was going on in NNPC but Jonathan did nothing until the info leaked. As far as this case is concerned, Jonathan was the one who gave himself a bad name with this mess. On the first day of the scandal, Jonathan should have just set up an investigative committee to probe the allegations of Sanusi and if he did that, Jonathan would have remained a saint. But instead what did he do?... his first reaction was to sack Sanusi for speaking out (even when cajoled to keep quiet). May God punish all the thieves and supporters of the evil going on in Nigeria.
If 20billion was missing in his final year as CBN Governor then what was missing in the first year and why didnt we hear it because i know and believe money missing has always been that administration. He failed Nigerians too and he should admit that. You heard it in the last year because Sanusi did not want to give his boss a bad name hence he kept meeting Jonathan in secret to complain about the fraud for several years until the info on the scam was leaked to the public in the last year. Sanusi did not fail Nigerians at all!... Rather it was Jonathan who failed NIgerians by taking sides with the evil cabal against Nigerians and sacking people like Sanusi who chose to speak out.
What I do not understand is why the love for Jonathan has made a lot of Nigerians so so blind to these simple things.... But to God be the Glory, God can never be mocked... God has just delivered Nigeria from the incompetent hands of Jonathan whom out of fear will rather punish 170million Nigerians instead of punishing a few cabal members. I am sure with time, the log in the eyes of the remaining Jonathan worshippers would fall off |
