@PM News

Sometimes we have let go of emotions when the agents of the law have taken a decision adjudged to be the most suitable.

Biu was found worthy of being reinstated by the PSC panel, what can we say? If truly culpable, with time he would answer for his atrocities.

If PDP can retract on this subject, then we all should let go!
I think sometimes you have to start using your brain...what's wrong with you people? When are going to tell Buhari the truth? This is insensitive and the wrong call at the wrong time. Not everything is about PDP.....I pray you people will wake up from your trance one day.

Nigeria boiling.

I love this.

End of Nigeria loading.
Any part of Nigeria boiling is bad news for the other parts.

The issue you and your Hausa friends need to address is bad governance. Especially at the state and LG level. Deal with that. Castles in the air rarely last long.

cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy Low lifes on Nairaland seems to be looking for slightest excuse to mudsling Buhari.

They are yet to learn how it badly burnt their fingers during election,and as such were forcefully swept away.

Talk about the stubborn fly following the corpse into the grave.

You guys were instrumental to Buhari's emergence as president.

Don't worry, you have a lot to write when Buhari releases ministerial list because I can't wait to see shekau as one of Nigeria's minister.

This is just the beginning.
Any unknown name on the list must be thoroughly checked lest they smuggle in a terrorist and call him a patriot. Afterall we know that from time immemorial foreigners from Niger and Chad basin have been ruling this country masquerading as Nigerians who speak hausa langauge.

I want to believe the PSC investigated and confirmed within human reasoning and evidences brought forward that he had no complicity in the escape of the notorious Kabiru.

It will be foolish to reinstate him if still indicted..
People do foolish things.........Buhari is one of such people.

"For those who do not know, Zakari Biu was the hatchet man of the late tyrant and Nigeria’s former Military Head of State, General Sani Abacha. Biu was in charge of Abacha’s Anti-Terrorism Task Force". This is irrelevant in the context.. cheesy

PM Newspaper needs to apologize to this officer for the wrong representation of facts. Nonsense editorial from an afternoon newspaper angry

Sai Buhari...good decision
Re: The Reinstatement Of Notorious Zakari Biu By PM News Editorial by thunder74(m): 4:56pm On Sep 08, 2015
It is not only BIU that was reinstated by this administration even the soldiers that were dismissed because of cowardice or leaking information on the movement of the troop to Boko Haram have all been reinstated. It is indeed very sad.

Guess my opinion was subtle enough. It is weakness to throw a jab at someone who has not directly provoked such.

To the subject, i agree with you that public perception may cite "insensitivity" in the reinstatement. However, if you read beyond the headlines, you will notice that there was a statutory panel of enquiry saddled with the responsibility of probing the sack. They found the accused not guilty. By law, will it be apt for the accused to remain accursed after being found innocent? If truly he had a hand in the atrocities, he would someday pay accordingly.

Buhari obviously had no influence in this. If he made any efforts to interfere with the PSC's decision he would be termed a dictator by the opposition.

Everything is wrong with that decision. And PMB is Commander in Chief. He cannot be separated from this decision.

The same people that cried foul over the pardon granted to some purported criminals in the past, now looking for reasons to justify reinstatement of yet another criminal. Smh.

Naija, una well done oh!
Re: The Reinstatement Of Notorious Zakari Biu By PM News Editorial by TopHand: 5:21pm On Sep 08, 2015
First and foremost everyone seems to be missing the point Kabiru Sokoto should have been executed for his crimes and why this never happened reflects the overall dysfunctional state of the justice code and system.
Secondly Mr Biu was re-instated by the police commission board, this board was constituted by the ex-PDP government no new members have either been appointed nor have any old members of the board been retired by the new APC government, basically what I am saying is President Buhari has nothing to do with this decision so all those wailing PDP wailers this is the soup which you people cooked for Nigeria pls shut up and eat it !!!.
Personally I pray President Buhari revisits the police force and weeds out its top hierarchy.

Until I read PDP's apology, i also felt something was wrong with the decision. My emotions were premised on the headlines.

The prompt pardon of political ex-convicts differs completely. If Biu had been convicted earlier and the President grants a pardon then he would have been said to have committed an act if folly. My 2 cents though.


Nb:

My mum was once wrongly accused 24 years ago. She just did not come home. She was apparently locked up for 2 weeks or more due to a fraud perpetrated by someone in her department. The trial started and lasted for four years before she was found not guilty and thereafter reinstated. It was a harrowing experience. Loads of her colleagues were quick to judge her at the time the trial was on!

! grin grin APC propaganda news outlet. I comfirmed that after reading their hard copy edition of Thursday, April 9, 2015 (two days before Lagos guber poll).

Nevertheless, claim on the dismissed commissioner of police should be a thing of concern to all and sundry. The thought of Kabiru Sokoto doing ONLY 3 YEARS IN JAIL for the murder of 44 innocent souls lives a bad thirst in my mouth.

fail to realise that Buhari is Abacha's boy. He served under Abacha's regime as PTF Chairman. And up till tomorrow Buhari will tell you that Abacha never stole our money.

So how do you expect Buhari not to reinstate his fellow member of the Abacha's Boys Association?

Meanwhile, I'm still looking for Buhari's WASC Certificate. Buhari is a semi-illiterate as far as Education is concerned until proven otherwise (when he finally writes and passes his WAEC)
Buhari, Abacha boy?

The end of Nigeria is a good case of good riddance of bad rubbish...

We are tired of living in pretence.

If Mr. Buhari is man enough he should call for a referendum to determine the fate of the various nationalities that make up Nigeria.

Who is scared of a break-up if not those who contribute nothing?

You are right and I guess the jab is unnecessary but the president need to balance the mood of the nation with whatever decision he's going to make......even if the guy is found not guilty, this is not the time to make such a pardon...it seems Buhari is so insensitive to the feelings of other ethnicity. .for crying out loud, Nigeria is a diverse and very volatile country. I think there are more pressing and important issue at stake.

It is acceptable practice all over the world for the president to quietly intervene in a sensitive issue like this one.
