We are not here to talk about Buhari and his achievements. That's a story for another time. When are they prosecuting these criminals? EFCC is not Buhari for crying out loud!

omenka:
Exactly. Even when the military went after thieves, pirates and militants who were responsible for "killing security, looting police armoury, and r&ping market women", they still cursed the president that he's "carrying out a sinister agenda against the SS and SE".

These guys have their brains unbelievably fvcked up.

What exactly were you insinuating about your brainless vengeance comment and annoyingly trying to tie the judgement with lamido's refusal to join the G7?

Was he guilty of getting kickback or Not?

Should he be getting kickbacks for contracts awarded

Should public servants be deliberately interfering with bidding processes to enrich their pockets?

They get kick backs and wickedly share the disbursed funds or deliver substandard projects just so they can enrich their pockets.


Why won't you ever stand for what's right in your pathetic life?

Dollarization Of The APC Primaries: How Amaehi Vanquished Atiku #saibuhari

The blogosphere was inundated with reports of the excessive sharing of dollars at the All Progressives Congress which took place during the latter part of last week.

One APC supporter and Special Adviser to Osun Governor on Environment, BolaIlori had blown the scandal open after he saw the beginning stages of the dollarization in action.

He took to his Facebook page and scribbled, “Crazy things are happening here!!! Some of these cannot represent the change Nigeria is yearning for. Excessive dollarization by one of the aspirants to is to say the least obscene. I have been involved in political process for decades now, I have never witnessed this volume of raw dollarization of party primaries. I only read about this kind of things in PDP primaries. A question been asked by conscientious delegates is that whoever can be giving out between $2000 to $5000 to…delegates certainly does not represent the kind of change Nigerians want…those who contributed to the pauperization of Nigeria now revel in dollarization… majority of Ondo delegates are still standing with Buhari but have been reduced from 85% to 70% within 24 hours…the remaining has gone with dollars ooo.!!!!!”

One has to wonder how Buhari was able to win the primaries in this era of stomach infrastructure where dollars are like the Biblical manna that God sent down from heaven to nourish the Israelites as they made their way to the promised land.

Sources close to the APC with knowledge of the way the Primaries unfolded have revealed that it was Rivers State Governor, Amaechi who flew back to Rivers State and returned to Lagos on Thursday morning with enough dollars to make Benjamin Franklin blush.

It has been revealed that Atiku offered the delegates $5000 each, but Amaechi doubled it to $10000 a pop. Thus turning the tables in favour of General Buhari.

Since his adventure into the APC, Amaechi has gone out of his way to prove himself a party loyalist, always the first to shoki or azonto at the many events the APC holds, which he himself is usually the chief sponsor.

According to party insiders, Amaechi has overtaken Tinubu as the major financier of the party. One does not need to wonder why he is always at President Jonathan’s throat over misappropriated oil wells or other such business. Anything that diminishes from the State’s coffers will have a ripple effect on his funding budget for the APC.

If he is guilty let the courts decide not jailed for two months pending conclusive investigations. That is the witch-hunting.

[s]Moreover are you saying all those who sponsored Buhari, including Amaechi with dollars did so based on their SALARIES, in line with the N18,000 minimum wage for other workers
If not, can you please tell us why they are also not in jail.[/s]
Thanks.

Walelavender:
As much as this move is reasonable, however, I hope it won't end in plea bargaining? It's either our laws are too weak or our institutions are not strong. Stringent laws must be enforced on thieves,looters of 2nd degree as the family of Lamido. But many of them are still walking freely and confidently on our roads

He is being remanded in custody not sentenced

Why do you always close eyes then deliberately point at others when being challenged?

Have they stopped wike from probing Amaechi?

BTW: What's with your obsession with posting gifs/clips/articles with no relevance whatsoever with topic of discussion.
You deliberate tactics to divert attention won't work with me.

Stay on topic and let's iron this shyte out

Do you think Lamido being arraigned and denied bail is a step in the right direction. If you don't, tell us why!

back2sender:
make dem njoy the place small, I just love this judge.
This are the kind of judge that EFF/ICPC should be taking their cases too, Judges that feel the pain this people do to the economy and common man and not judges that live in Eldorado.
well don madam judge

anonimi:
Being arraigned is a a step in the right direction.

Being remanded in prison for two months is NOT and smells of witch-hunting particularly when you consider that others have worse corruption but are posting pictures of relaxing in their house in Abuja.

Well said...The thieves should also feel the heat...

...F A C T.. C H E C K ...

'Obasanjo and Atiku in 8 years built one UNIVERSITY each for themselves....Bells and ABTI.
They built NONE for Nigerians.

Jonathan and Sambo in 4 years built 14 (FOURTEEN) new universities for all Nigerians.
NONE for themselves.

NOTE: OBJ and ATIKU are now consultants/sponsors/piloters/members of APC....
They too are seeking CHANGE!!!

I choose TRANSFORMATION than this their CHANGE.

Let's not consider the merit of similar cases since outcome of any court proceedings solely rely on merit of the argument being put to scrutiny in front of the presiding judge.

Rich people are usually able to get away with murder because they can afford the best lawyers not necessarily because they can buy justice.

He was probably remanded because he could have disappeared or whatever. We don't have the details so we can't speculate

I just want us to focus on the charges he is facing for now

EFCC Please when will TA ORJI of Abia State be arraigned. Can't wait for the guys to be transferred to Ekwuluobia prison.

Court Grants Ohakim N270m Bail For N270m Fraud

A Federal High Court in Abuja on Thursday granted a former Governor of Imo State, Ikedi Ohakim, bail in the sum of N270m.

Ohakim, who is being prosecuted for N270m fraud allegedly perpetrated in 2008, is to produce a surety resident in Abuja to guarantee the bail.
Justice Adeniyi Ademola, in his ruling on the bail application, filed by Ohakim, also ordered the prosecuting agency, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, ‎to submit the passport and other travel documents seized from the former governor to the Deputy Chief Registrar of the court.

The judge was silent on where the accused person should remain pending when he would meet the bail conditions.

But Justice Ademola had, on Wednesday, ordered the accused person to remain in EFCC custody pending the hearing of his bail application on Thursday.

At the hearing of the bail application on Thursday, the defence counsel, Chief Chris Uche (SAN), urged the court to grant his client’s prayer.

He said his client, whose passport had been seized by the EFCC, had remained faithful to the bail conditions granted him by the anti-graft agency.

But the prosecutor, Mr. Festus Keyamo, opposed the bail.

He argued that rather than granting bail to the accused person‎, the court should grant an accelerated hearing.

But the judge in his ruling held that the accused person had placed sufficient materials before the court to warrant granting him bail.

The EFCC had on Wednesday arraigned Ohakim on three counts of fraud, including making cash payment of $2.29m (N270m) for a property in Asokoro, Abuja.

The prosecution also accused the former governor of collaborating with Tweenex Consociates H.D. Ltd. ‎to conceal the ownership of the property by drafting an agreement portraying him as a tenant in the property.

Ohakim, who was governor of Imo State between May 2007 and May 2001, was also accused of failing to declare the property as part of his assets while under EFCC arrest in November 2008.

The offences were allegedly committed in 2008 in violation of section 15(1)(d) and section 14(1)(b) of the Money Laundering (Prohibition) Act, 2004, respectively.

Meanwhile, Justice Evoh Chukwu of the same Federal High Court in Abuja, had on Wednesday fixed hearing of the bail application filed by former Adamawa State governor, Murtala Nyako, his son Abdul-Aziz and others till Friday.

The EFCC had also on Wednesday arraigned Nyako, who was removed as Adamawa State Governor by the state House of Assembly on July 15, 2014, along with his son, Abdul-Aziz, and others comprising, Zulkifikk Abba, Abubakar Aliyu as well as five firms through which he allegedly siphoned about N29bn belonging to the state.

‎The other firms arraigned along with Nyako and his son were Blue Opal Limited, Sebore Farms and Extension Limited, Pagoda Fortunes Limited, Tower Assets Management Limited and Crust Energy Limited.

johnny1980:
You just confirmed my assertion again. It's not about how big it is. It's about the depth of use.
