Whynotthetruth:
I just laugh at the partisanship of most of us which beclouds sense of reasoning...NNPC would be probed too and people would be indicted but be sure that such court injunctions would arise...Nothing would happen...Nobody gets punished...everybody goes home to enjoy their loot...Believe me, since this is what citizens desire, see how these guys will keep procuring the services of smart and intelligent lawyers....Nigerians are simply smart by half.....What makes you think buhari probe isn't about same reason?...lawyers will use this case as exhibit in court to prosecute their case against government...yes, they would tell same stories of witchhunt by government and court will grant their plea...let's watch how it plays out....this is democracy not military...

The rantings of a sore attention seeking loser.

barcanista:
Since I was born, I have never witness the kind of hypocrisy, double standard and demonisation that is currently perpetrated by Muhammadu Buhari, the APC, Alhaji Sanusi, Osinbajo and their "good governance crusaders" against the person of President Goodluck Jonathan, Allison Madekwe, and other government officials.

Alhajis Buhari and Sanusi and APC have been going about using every platform to talk about a "missing $20b", cheered by their hypocritical followers that pride themselves as good governance crusaders. They have deliberately gone blind over the fraud of CBN under Sanusi as outlined by the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria report in February 2014.

Sanusi Indicted And Removed For Fraud
According to the report (see below) Sanusi was indicted for Gross Misconduct that bothers on fraud and financial recklessness among other offence. The FRCN subsequently advised Mr President to remove Lamido Sanusi from office for further investigation and probe after the explanation of Sanusi appeared more like a tale and outrightly illogical according to FRCN. The council indicates that the explanation provided by Sanusi is “a clear display of incompetence, nonchalance, fraud, wastefulness, and abuse of due process and deliberate efforts to misrepresent facts on the part of the leadership of the CBN.”

The council advised the President to exercise the powers conferred on him by Section 11(2)(f) of the CBN Act 2007 or invoke Section 11(2)(c) of the said Act “and cause the governor and the deputy governors to cease from holding office in the CBN.”


April 2014: VP-elect Yemi Osibanjo Filed Case To Stop Sanusi Probe
Rather than Sanusi to prove his innocence in court, he filed a case in Federal High Court, Lagos to STOP FRCN and Other Security Agencies from investigating and prosecuting him through three Senior Advocates of Nigeria, Prof. Yemi Osibanjo, Dr. Kanyinsola Ajayi and Kola Awodien.

13 May 2014: Lagos Judge Tshoho Grants Sanusi Prayers
High Court Judge John Tshoho rather than uphold the constitutional powers of FRCN to investigate probe Sanusi, he granted the prayers of Lamido Sanusi and BARRED FRCN from further investigation or probing Sanusi Lamido Sanusi. In his own words...
“Prejudice is very pronounced in the language of that document. The language of the briefing note (transmitted by the FRCN to the presidency) conveys a sense of the defendant desperately goading the presidency to deal with the plaintiff,”
“The plaintiff submitting himself for investigation (by FRCN) is like the cockroach finding itself in the midst of fowls. Such a cockroach cannot be innocent,”.
http://www.tv360nigeria.com/?p=11923

Despite the fact the President Jonathan commissioned PWC to audit NNPC books to ascertain the veracity or otherwise of Sanusi's claim, Buhari, APC, Sanusi and their online agents that parade themselves as good governance and anticorruption apostles have been crying blue murder but refused to comment on the FRCN report nor the APC's VP elect role in shielding Sanusi for probe.

April 26, 2015: Buhari's Display of Hypocrisy
In his usual hypocrisy, General Buahri vowed to re-visit the $20b allegation but said NOTHING about the FRCN report. In his own word... “Imagine a situation where the former CBN governor who by God ‘s grace would later become the  Emir of Kano raised an  issue of missing billions of money, not in Naira but in Dollars, $20 billion.
“What happened, instead of investigating to know whether it was true that the money was missing or not, they simply found a reason to remove him. So these are the issues we are talking about…"
Contrary to the lies of Alhaji Buhari, Sanusi wasn't removed because he raised alarm, he was removed because he was indicted by FRCN. Jonathan also never kept mute, he commissioned PWC to audit the books. Buhari was also blind to talk about prosecuting Sanusi for the CBN fraud. Perhaps the Emir is as "incorruptible" as him(Buhari)

Lamido Sanusi and Stella Oduah
The so-called APC and their praise-singers have never for once called for the revisiting of the FRCN report, oh because it doesn't favor them. Ironically, these people were quick to call for the ouster of Stella Oduah that was indicted for "lesser" offence but demonised Goodluck Jonathan for suspending Sanusi that has lots of indictment on his neck.

Conclusion
Buhari, Sanusi and APC can continue in their hypocritical path of self-deception, but every attempt to twist history, intimidate or demonise Dr. Goodluck Ebelemi Azikiwe Jonathan shall be fully resisted. Since they see nothing wrong in the fraud of CBN under Sanusi of which they are beneficiaries, then they should see nothing wrong in whatever happens in NNPC or any Agency under Jonathan irrespective of whether or not any money is missing.


May God Help Us All...

Am sure your brain may be heading to about half per cent completeness. You better tell your Buhari to face governance before this country will fall on his face and subsquenctly fall him against fence.

are u also kodded

Whynotthetruth:
I don't actually get your point at all...because in all you never answered my question...
I don't know you and I am not here to make friends par say but to rob minds on cogent issues...I am not here to discuss persons either...
Anybody can claim anything online...lots of e-billionaire, e-professors, e-musicians etc...I am not bordered nor interested...

so bro, grow up and learn to concentrate on issues of discussion not persons...

Go back and discuss the topic of thread or if you don't see the need; then kindly take your leave quietly...that's maturity... thanks

Better take it on the chin old man!!
Just live with it.
Can anyone name a honest politician?

barcanista:
Why didn't Sanusi defend himself before the Judge rather than rushing to the press while on the other hand using APC political pastor and a Kangaroo judge to stop further investigation and probe?

You are among the hypocritical apostle of "good governance".

francizy:
Hahahahaha, it will be my duty to remind him that Barca or GEJ weren't there when he was born and there was no way they would have helped save him from his deep rooted curse. lucifer took a dump on that guy's brain...

wetin I do you again?

dearpreye:
OP, well done. Let the hypocrites chose their sights. Let them revel in their hypocrisy and foolishness.

A lot of us had genuine reasons why we have refused to join the hypocrisy bandwagon of the APC.

When I sometime last year saw your commitment to the Broom wavers, I just knew you were deploying your intelligence and skills to a very wrong course. Most of us were even more convinced and determined till we saw the latent hypocrisy of the liars. We jumped ship! I'm happy you can finally see the bigger picture and understand the salient point that beyond the tip of the iceberg lies a mammoth ice. Welcome to Nigeria!

You were simply a pawn in a bigger chess game. Now you can appreciate the reasons I outlined in my PM to you months ago.

I still remain committed to the welfare and development of Nigeria.....

Of all sins, nothing offends me more than HYPOCRISY.

onatisi:
Gej should have dealt decisively with apc and the opposition but he chose to act like a sissy and weakling unfortunately it is now the turn of apc to deal with pdp ruthlessly and I am seeing any sign of them acting like a weakling or sissy like gej did.

chemali:
The FRCN lacks statutory powers to carry out any investigation! It's the same way they went ahead to levy Eko Hotel before they were taken to court. If GEJ had evidence of financial impropriety against Sanusi, why didn't he use EFCC? I'm struggling hard not to call you and the OP idiots.

The Financial Reporting Council (FRC) of Nigeria is a federal government agency established by the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria Act, No. 6, 2011. It is a federal government Parastatal under the supervision of the Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment.

harmonise activities of relevant professional and regulatory bodies as relating to corporate governance and financial reporting.
promote the highest standards among auditors and other professionals engaged in the financial reporting process.
enhance the credibility of financial reporting; and
improve the quality of accountancy and audit services, actuarial, valuation and corporate governance standards.

It takes months, probably years to build a Skyscraper, whereas it takes just minutes to destroy it (to the ground level); so is Barcanista integrity and prestige on this platform.
Barcanista is the Nairaland Clown of the Year!
Seriously, it's so amusing reading his old posts, then comparing it with the present ones.
Guy! You deserve to be crowned as the Clown of the Year on Nairaland.
You have my vote dude!

shaqhead:
While you are here seeking comfortable shade I await ur response to @socialmediaman @mrmeeoo1 cos u dnt expect us to swallow ur words as fact or should we jst accept what they have said about ur piece?-that it reeks of hypocrisy!

ALISMILE:
Never knew dis BACANISTerr guy or watever he calls himsef, is sooooo dull. D simple question now is, why didn't dis FRNC come upwit their stupit report b4 d alleged $20B. I will never be fooled by such cheap blackmail!

Demdem:
Crap. where lawyers not there during Objs time when we last seen serious judgement on high profile criminals? That i want criminals to be punished doesnt mean i want the innocent to suffer also. It was obvious that this Sausis case was a witchunt. He didnt even have the balls to appeal the decision against him.

socialmediaman:
@barcanista let me start with the conclusion "if they see nothing wrong with....." This shows you're working for a paymaster, not a patriot working for the interest of Nigerians you claim.. Your post should therefore be disregarded

On the case of FRCN, it was very clear that the institution had found Sanusi guilty even before investigation, what then did they want to investigate when they had already written to the president asking him to suspend Sanusi for fraud "even without investigation"? This was what the Lagos court based its judgement on.. You already know this anyway, but this clarification is meant for the unsuspecting whom this your article is meant for

On the case of Professor Yemi Osinbajo's "professional" services to Sanusi's witch-hunt, you of all people should know that it is "ethically" wrong to blame a lawyer for offering professional services to a client who approaches them, especially when they believe Their client is being witch haunted, i believe you're simply acting out the remaining part of the hate documentary on Osinbajo which the law court stopped the PDP from releasing before the election

On the issue of the missing $20 billion dollars, we both have seen the report of PWC which stated unequivocally "This report cannot be trusted" and also "The CBN refused to open its books for audit".. What more could've been more relieving for you and I if the CBN had opened its books so we may see the extent of Sanusi's crime as being alleged by FRCN?

Conclusion: This article is malicious, intended to deceive the unsuspecting public and aimed at diverting the attention of the good people of Nigeria from what is possible to be one of the greatest frauds perpetrated by a sitting democratic government in the history of Nigeria using Nigeria's major source of livelihood at the moment. The article should therefore be ignored and disregarded as a cheap blackmail targeted at the incoming government of Buhari.

God Bless Nigeria.

mrmetoo1:
Hypocrisy offends you than stealing and murder.. Ok now!!

AhmedMustapha:
Things don't work that way. You can secure a court injunction to stop further investigation and probe, it doesn't necessarily mean you're guilty. Mrs Diezani Allison Madueke secured one to prevent the house of reps from probing her. www.informationng.com/2014/06/court-stops-house-of-reps-from-probing-petroleum-minister.html
It doesn't mean she was guilty but the court stopped further investigations.

Barcanista I hope you will follow your friends to jail when the time comes.

Tell yourself the truth for once at least

philips70:
The only question I have for barcanista and co is so GEJ knows and is in possession of documents and reports that indicted HRH Sanusi of heavy fraud yet he just appointed him as Pro-Chancellor of Uniben? Why is this president in love with corrupt people for Christ sake? I have seen him visiting him in Kano, even invited him to dinner at Aso Rock, spoke glowingly about him during his coronation. With all that trash barcanista posted up there? GEJ must bear the cross of all the crimes he condoned and be ready to go to jail for all of them. After all Doyin Okuigbe said he is the Jesus of our time.

barcanista:
And you all have been going all over the place condemning Alison? If every indictee keep running to the courts to stop probe, who then will be prosecuted? I don't care whether or non went to court, I am concerned as to why Thief Emir Sanusi refused to clear his innocence and why the hypocritical Alhaji buhari and his supporters choose not to talk about it. What if NNPC GMD had got similar judgement?

Abeg spare me your epistle
