I read this piece but I don't understand why Nigerians are lamenting on the thread.


Can someone please tell me what's going on?


Is the problem about un-due process, or the fact that arms weren't purchased? I don't understand.

negativity or not, AIT only said the truth...... Where is the country heading to when v your so called APC governors say they can no longer c pay minimum wage.

If the government destroyed the operations of the National Security of the country it would be too sad.

If Dasuki misused these funds and they are able to prove them in the court he should be sentenced accordingly. But if they think using the media to sensationally revealed operations of the National security apparatus then it's too bad.

Are they saying the current National Security Adviser has not been receiving money to run his office? Are they saying they did not receive money to manage the recently inconclusive elections in Kogi and Bayelsa?

Common Mr Buhari? Attacking the operations of government security just to get a single man is very petty. What if he plays dirty and reveals all the security operations in the court in order to save himself?

There should be a limit to what the government can destroy. They should put caution in these things, otherwise the security operations of our country will be seriously compromised.

God bless you for speaking my mind. we are hearing these because another party took over. Apc should tell us how they sponsored their own campaign. OBJ diverted billions of dollars meant for electricity no body is talking. He even shared Ghana must go bag of money to senators. I am not supporting corruption, what am saying is that all the politicians (Apc/PDP) are corrupt. And have looted our treasury. If OBJ die tomorrow, you will start hearing his own loot, but now he is alive, he remains a saint. Mtcheeeew.

PrinceEvolution:
well said

mbulela:
All of the above

moscobabs:

I think that's be because of the fallen crude oil price. Crude oil price averaged $105/barrel in 5 years of Jonathan's rule. By January this year Iweala told us Nigeria was already borrowing to pay salary. That's after 5 years of oil windfall, the highest ever. Jonathan government reduced our reserves drastically. In comparison, an oil Exporting nation like Norway built their reserves such that they became one of the strongest country in the world financially. Noway lend to super power nations while we borrowed, under same oil windfall.

Now you want to blame the current administration for struggling to pay a salaries with oil at $43. We should try to be objective.

There is nothing shocking about dis any more d only shocking tins i want to hear is that he is in kirikir nt house arrest.

someone should call the abobokou cause he may have something to say caused am dumbfounded

you're only defending the orange administration of APC probably because you support them. But am very sure if it were to be Gej era this calamity befall Nigerians, you all will still blame him. Also, all politicians are corrupt and stole money in one way or the other including pmb(amaechi n tinubu stole vigorously to fund buhari election). So we are the gullible once, you n me. Remember ibb openly threatened buhari that he has records of misappropriation of funds under his watch as president and minister.

maestroferddi:
Grow up and stop making infantile outbursts!

If you are engaging your critical thinking skills, you would have seen that the only script being acted out here by Buhari and APC is the use of these so-called probe on the past administration as a red herring from the performance that Nigerians demand from an otherwise comatose government.

It is given that Nigerian politicians have been corrupt since 1960. The germaine question then should be whether some of the plethora of sins purportedly committed by Jonathan administration were procedural practices or that key actors in it went out their ways to perpetrate malfeasance.

I am not against probity and accountability but the way and manner Buhari and APC are going about these issues hardly bodes well for the future of Nigeria as an indivisible corporate entity.

What Buhari and APC appear to forget is that government is a continuum.
Today they are riding on the high horse as the government in power. In the near future, the transient nature of power will ensure that they would be operating from the other side.

I daresay that one of the biggest challenges of an average blackman is the ability to manage success. Buhari has allowed his success at the presidential elections to becloud his sense of propriety and fairness. The only losers I can from Buhari's misadventure are the growth of democracy in Nigeria and indeed social and political harmony in the Nigeria of the nearest future.

“Purpose of payment: “Being amount released to the Office of National Security Adviser(ONSA) from the Signatory Bonus Account in preparation for the forthcoming Gubernatorial / State Assembly elections as approved by AGF. “The Honourable Minister may wish to authenticate this mandate to enable the CBN remit the fund.”
In a short note to approve the request, Okonjo-Iweala simply said: “Authenticated” and signed

Little wonder, OBJ once said "The Okonjo-Iweala who worked for me is different from the Okonjo-Iweala who worked for Jonathan"

panachuku:
Chai, Buhari is biting more than he can chew. His own election was also funded with money looted from rivers state and money looted by tinubu thru his puppet governors. Btw Buhari once said abacha never stole.with all d suitcases abacha moved did buhari not benefit too

GambaOsaka:
Mr Man , try and be sensible and think aright for once.
This is beyond party, tribal or associate sentiments.

It is clear that some people are stealing and diverting public funds and you are here praising GEJ. Where was he when all these were going on.

I'm not surprised because you are one of those people who think corruption has become part and parcel of Nigeria.

Acidosis:
Exactly but I'm beginning to think many Nigerians are somewhat dumb.

I read the entire thread and vastly every comment is filled with lamentations. No one is asking any question as to what and how the money was spent.

Because the headline reads $47m, some people just felt the money was eaten in a raw state by Jonathan.

We actually have more s!lly people on this forum.

porka:
The intention is to make Dasuki look bad.

They know the recipients of the information are very shallow minded. Some of can barely read. Some who can manage to read don't read more than the headline while the few who can read just manipulate the information to justify their nonsense.

Those who gave out the information know what they are doing.

Goke7:
@the bolded, what a contradiction as you are truly against probity and accountability, you guys have been shouting media trial, now they are in court, you are already having sleepless nights, like I said earlier in this thread, its a good precedence we are starting as the next Government will also look into the books of this current administration, no need to throw stones at PMB for winning his elections, just allow the fellows to defend themselves in the law court simple.
