Wait! The loan is meant for rail projects ba? In a situation where loans meant for the rail sector is being used for expansion of airport terminals, hydro electric power projects and a galaxy backbone project, is that not diversion? How does expansion of airport terminal affect development of the rail sector? Buhari said and I quote: [b] President Muhammed Buhari Monday in Abuja
called for an explanation from the Ministry of
Finance on the foreign loans obtained for rail
projects but diverted to other purposes.
Speaking at the end of a presentation on the
Ministry of Transport by the Permanent
Secretary, Mohammed Bashar at the
Presidential Villa, President Buhari said that it
was disappointing to find that foreign loans
obtained in line with signed agreements were
moved from one project to another.
“I hope that due process was followed before
such diversions were carried out. Taking money
from one project to another has to be done
properly,” Garba Shehu, his senior special
assistant on media and publicity, quoted the
President as saying.
Mr. Buhari was reacting to the specific instance
of the diversion of a substantial part of the loan
of USD1.005 billion from the Chinese Exim
Bank, obtained for the construction of a
standard gauge rail line linking Lagos to Kano
but which was moved elsewhere. [/b]. Source:www.premiumtimesng.com/news/188134-buhari-launches-probe-into-alleged-diversion-of-1billion-loan-for-rail-projects.html Now, how is this NOI statement different from Buhari's statement? Was the loan meant for airport terminal expansion?

Am not for or against for NOI but your comment makes little sense. A woman who attended Harvard is the one you calling glorify clerk? What is your qualification? have you ever step out of Nigeria before? For your information, average Americans can not get into Harvard so you should appreciate Nigerians who do.

I almost went to Harvard but I could afford it and could not find a sponsor or guarantor for a $100k loan to support my studies. I went back to London instead.

When will you have sense? Do you even know the job of the finance minister? You are just another illiterate half educated Nigerian claiming to know it all. NOI's power as a finance minister has a beginning and an end. Democracy is not absolute power. Try to know the resposiblilties of a finance minister before spewing thrash.

The more reason why Abdusalami's peace committee advice to Buhari is very appropriate, the veracity of such allegations needs to investigated, parties involved questioned before any public statements on such matters.
I hope APC leaders like Oshiomhole is not pushing Buhari too hard to force him playing to the gallery.

likila:


you, buhari and the current permanent secretary of the ministry of finance no get one atom of sense.

Foolish man. She was a glorified clerk over there and she was no more than a token affirmative action candidate. That's why she jumped at the opportunity twice. She had zero power and did not even report to the senior management team let alone the board or committee at the world bank. The finance minister was well beyond her level. Useless thief. NOI you are thief.

Lawalemi:
Why the persecution; can`t APC work without destroying other people?

Tkester:


That is a fact people don't understand.

Probe - probes, are all arguments of a brainwashed and incapacitated dolt. Since 1999 this country has gone through more than five different probe panels and the end is always NOTHING. Here we are with yet another 'oputa panel', my only worry is that the so called probes have been used to replace more and urgent critical attention seeking areas, like how to shore up our dwindling government earnings, how to douse the tribal tension buhari's govt is generating by its in-actions.

I only pity Nigerians who just as buhari promised that in his tenure he will declare his assets publicly and force his aides to do same, he will cancel the office of the first lady, he will crush boko haram in two months, etc. Will be disappointed and many of them might even be more disappointed when by the end of this year we start hearing billions of naira worth of misappropriation going under the current regime.

The truth about this probes is that buhari is using it to hide his govt ineptitude... However only time will tell, as I beleive that 10 weeks is more than enough for buhari to give Nigerians a sense of the direction his govt tends to follow.
