Refineries in Warri and Portharcourt were fixed by Diezani under Jonathan administration. Buhari could not have done a thing in just 2 months. Stop the lies.

"Who is going to fight corruption? The APC people or Obasanjo? They only pay lip service to fighting corruption. Buhari himself is not clean. What is corruption? Malpractices, parading questionable certificates, swearing to false affidavit, they are all part of corruption. And in the 1970s when Buhari was federal commissioner for Petroleum, about $2.8 billion Oil money went missing. It was later discovered that this amount was paid into a British Bank where it yielded about $400 million interest. Nobody knows where that money is. Buhari said he did n't know about it. He was appointed by Abacha as chairman of PTF, my own brother Prof. J.P. Clark was a member. In fact only prof. J.P. Clark and Buhari are still living members of PTF. Buhari brought his brother-in-law as a consultant and later handed over the entire administration of PTF to him and others. They had the authority to execute all projects. At the end of it all, they left and Obasanjo dissolved the board and removed all of them. Then Obasanjo set up a Commission of Enquiry to probe the PTF and the report, which had just been published by some newspapers, shows that N25 billion could not be accounted for by Buhari and those who administered the place. Yet Obasanjo came out to say the only thing he found against him was that instead of building roads and houses, he was busy buying mosquito nets with PTF money."

"'Some $30 billion dollars was reportedly earned from Oil during the Babangida years (1985 - 1993). There was in particular the 12 billion dollars Oil windfall earned from 1991 Gulf War. Where did all these huge sums of money go? The most visible answers are some of the multi-billion-dollar white elephant projects around the country. According to Okigbo the handling of the special projects accounts by the Babangida regime was a "gross abuse of public trust."'

-- This Day Newspapers Saturday September 16, 2000.

"...even as Nigeria's oil revenues have soared: in the course of Obasanjo's eight-year tenure, Nigeria earned $223 billion, two and a half times the amount earned over the previous eight years. But thanks to kleptocracy and rampant graft, much of the money has not gone where it should have....Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) estimates that the country has wasted $400 billion since 1960."

----- Jean Herskovits, Former CIA Officer on African Affairs in "Foreign Policy", a United States Journal, August 2007.

"Has the former President (Obasanjo) forgotten that he wasted $16.5 billion dollars on power during his tenure and that $16.5 billion dollars was never accounted for?"

i sensed Obasanjo is not the target but those ministers and officials who looted from the money

How many of them have been sent to prison? Probe, probe, probe.

This is another scam in the making.

Nigerians should start asking questions about funds assigned for dubious probes like this. Saraki is a known thief.

It's a desperate ploy to prove to the executive that the Senate can still bite even if they can't make laws.

gabazin080:
Yar'adua keh. Who wan probe dead man

abacha's case nkor. His family wil bear the brunts if any

What is Saraki and his men up to, we are watching o

gabazin080:
Yar'adua keh. Who wan probe dead man

You de mind those yeye men.
Why cant they start from those that are alive.
It seem IBB is the only nigeria president that is not corrupt or is it because he is from the north? No one is talking about him.
The likes of Atiku, IBB, Saraki, tinubu and co.
APC was never serious about fighting corruption, if they are let them start from the scratch.
All leaders from 1974 till date are corrupt.

Dear National Assembly, please in the name of everything you hold dear, focus on your primary responsibility. Our laws need review, many aspects of our lives need new laws. We need quality laws so probe our laws and reduce your jumbo pay.

I feel there are more pertinent national issues to be discussed.

Bubu wants to probe only Jona....

gabazin080:
Yar'adua keh. Who wan probe dead man

He is not the one to be probe, the minister of power under his cabinet and those responsible for PHCN deals that has to deal with contracts etc .

better late than never but we already know the outcome

This is a welcome development. All sectors should be probed, not just the power sector. I will also encourage the state house of assembly to follow suit. There is need for checks and balances

Probing OBJ = a probe for 1999/2004 Senate and house sessions too......

Probe yar,adua? What exactly im i nt getting right here?

Am sure nothing will come out of the probe. Mocking themselves not Nigerians.
OBJ should be in prison and all his assets seized to realise money wasted

[quote author=knuckbuck post=37784533]Nice. Hopefully the Senate will start doing their job.[/quonice


Nice ke? This senate don't know the main reason they are they. All I have seen them doing is rubbing shoulders with the executives, entertaining Foreign ambassador s and trying all publicity agenda.
What laws need to come up? They can even make laws that will enable the anti graft agency to probe previous administration. The Saraki led senate is indeed clueless and direction less. He need to focus on how this administration succeed first in making better and enabling laws than the previous ones

I think it is d right tin to do buh d question is will it bring all d stolen money?. Nigerians want to move ahead. D probé sud nt b a do or die affair or trying to witchhunt anbdy. If it is done jst for political propaganda, den we r jst wasting tym n resources that cud b channeled to human development. God bless Nigeria.

This probe will cost a lot of money and in the end nothing worth it will be achieved . Why waste more money chasing shadow.
Last line : OBJ appear before a Senate probe? Tell me another story.
