I don't support corruption. So my question is : When is EFCC going to open APC's can of worms and or skeleton cupboards? |

maestroferddi:When was the last time you mourn about the so called tyranny over petty thieves awaiting trials over years at prisons all over Nigeria? *Instead of having issues with Buhari, a decent person should be focusing his anger on the thieves. I really don't get you guys. It goes to show how corruption has eaten into the fabric of Nigeria society that a decent person should have an atom of sympathy for alleged rogue but calling the perceived sheriff name due to some useless party and tribal leaning. |

hinwazaka:MANY Nigerians are corrupt. They are d same ppl who are quick to spot corrupt ppl...d last tym I checked, "the type of leaders dat govern a society is an attestation to d kind of ppl d society at large is made up of". I'm sure dat dis comment has hurt many guilty consciences who are corrupt in their various sphere of dominance but are quick to tell "bigger yam" eaters to return "our" money. >>This goes without saying dat many of d commentators here don't pay tax (which is criminal & punishable by our laws) but yet dey are quick say politicians stole "our" money...lolzzzzz WHEN UNA GO GET SENSE SELF ? |

Please tell them. This is one sided but Nigerians do not learn from history. Yes GEJ govt had a lot of corrupt people but make sure you prosecute everyone including obasanjo and Tinubu and not selected people to make yourselves look good. WOCKHARDI: |

maestroferddi:So you suggest we dash them the yams they have stolen and go back to our farms and cultivate fresh yams so that they wouldn't retaliate in future? |
| Re: Court Remands Metuh In Kuje Prison by Eziachi: 6:13pm On Jan 15, 2016 |
WOCKHARDI:Whenever they like. That should be non of your concern. When armed robbers in Aba are apprehended, you never asked when those in Okitipupa will be apprehended before Aba robbers are dealt with? The reason these rogues are bold enough to be even having an opinion was based on the strength they get from comments like yours. But if they perceived that everyone is against them and what they had been alleged to have done including their own family, their whole arrogant attitude will change and they will be pleading for mercy and forgiveness. Even when SDP people were bold enough to admit that they collected N100m but vowed not to return. In a society where stealing is a crime, they will be lynched by the masses. When PDP or whoever returns to power, if ever, let them fight corruption as they sees fit. The only people complaining are the rogues themselves and their ignorant supporters who cannot forget about politics and tribalism to recognize their real enemy. |

Eziachi:Well said sir. Tell the poster to go and rob a bank and claim that since the ones who robbed in Jigawa were not captured he should be left alone |

pro2010:Mr. Yam farmer try and do some thinking! I don't how old you are but if you have been around for sometime, you would have understood. Every government in Nigeria since independence has gone to town with one hue or another cry of fighting corruption. We all know what happened when they left office. Obasanjo was making out as one sanctimonious trustee of Nigeria's commonwealth but his noises belied one of the greatest avalanches of corruption this country will ever see. Let Buhari leave office today and another succeeding government will readily open a can of worms over Buhari's activities. |

maestroferddi:You are probably very old and can barely see or is that you just can not comprehend simple questions? I was asking you for an alternative to prosecuting corrupt criminals and you go off about OBJ, what's the problem with the next governments querrying the actions of their predecessors? Are you that transparency averse? |

raumdeuter:" Since the ones who ROBBED in Jigawa ........" So when are you going to capture those ones? Anyway, I've made my observation and you cannot expect me to view this anti corruption fight only through APC prism. Do you? |
| Re: Court Remands Metuh In Kuje Prison by raumdeuter: 6:43pm On Jan 15, 2016 |
WOCKHARDI:Go and rob first. Its not through APC prism, its through common sensen prism and your submission makes no sense Where in the world have you seen a thief caught that is now asking why they didnt catch the other thieves as an excuse. Answer your own case and leave the others |

So this is all they can come up with...transferred his $1m to an investment company here in Nigeria is now an offence..Silencincing the opposition is what I call this game... |

raumdeuter:You are taking this issue too far. Read my post. I said that I don't support nor condone corruption. I believe in the rule of law, equity and justice. So no APC politicians deserve to be probed. If they can be probed when will that be. Is it when the EFCC is through with the opposition? Answer me! Don't ask me to produce evidences of corruption against them. That's will be childish of you. |

Iko5000:Next time an armed robber accosts you or raids your family house, please be kind enough to tell the Police not to investigate the case or prosecute the thieves UNTIL all armed robbery cases before yours were settled. Do you believe that is the way to go? |
| Re: Court Remands Metuh In Kuje Prison by Akainzo(m): 4:43am On Jan 16, 2016 |
WOCKHARDI:Let me share something I got. ******************* THROWBACK....... Five AD Governors left office in 2003, Lam Adeshina, Segun Osoba, Adebayo, Akande and Adefarati. PDP was in power when they left, NO CHARGES OF CORRUPTION was brought against any of them! In fact, OBJ warned Oyinlola (PDP) to emulate Bisi Akande in accountability and incorruptibility! Now, PDP was fighting corruption between 2003-2007 but no progressive governor was involved. Alamieyesigha was impeached because of corruption; Wabara was impeached as Senate President because of corruption; Dariye was under fire because of corruption, so ALL THESE GUYS ARE PDP MEMBERS! Therefore War against Corruption in those era was actually against PDP. Between 2007 and 2015, the Opposition member that was charged for corruption was no other person than the Opposition Leader himself TINUBU. He was tried in no other Court apart from the one under the direct supervision of the PDP led FG......CCT. He was discharged and Acquitted. During this time, Ibori was jailed for corruption, he is a PDP man. Bode George was jailed for corruption, also a PDP man, Farouk Lawan was indicted for Corruption with a caught on tape evidence......hmmmm....also a PDP man. The pension thieves, Oransanya scam, the NNPC fraud exposed by Ribadu, Sule Lamido and his thieving sons among others were all corruption cases initiated by the PDP government itself against PDP members. Why has the PDP not being able to convict opposition members of corruption apart from its members ONLY ? War against corruption means war against PDP!!!Did they challenge their own governments to spread their war on corruption on others? Corruption is not a war fought using federal character, only those who are guilty get punished!!!! There has been a subtle fight before.....but this time is #WARAGAINSTCORRUPTION.......and mind you #BuhariWillSucceed. |

WOCKHARDI:He is right though with Tinubu he is a smart guy even an American lawyer would find it difficult to prosecute him. He never deals with cash directly no more no less. |

http://newsrescue.com/olisa-metuh-beats-up-british-school-principal-drives-him-off-in-car-boot-rescued/#axzz3xPCrG0u0 The Vice-Principal of British Nigerian Academy, Prince & Princess Estate, Abuja, Mr. Kola Pele, 67, has taught in numerous schools and nurtured many pupils. He was going about his duty at the last BNA visiting day when the National Vice-Chairman (South-East), Peoples Democratic Party, Mr. Olisa Metuh, invaded the school with his wife, policemen as well as aides and allegedly assaulted him and other teachers for confiscating his son’s GSM phone. Metuh, a lawyer turned politician, allegedly held Pele by the throat and reportedly ordered an aide to put him in his car boot, saying “No police IG or SSS can secure your release.” The incident, which occurred on February 19, 2011, caused panic among the teachers and over 50 pupils that witnessed the incident. The affected teachers had filed a lawsuit seeking N250m for general damages, N10m for punitive damages and N350, 000 for medical bills. The writ was issued by Joseph Dauda (SAN), the Nigeria Bar Association President. Pele told PUNCH METRO on Wednesday that he went to the hostels around 6.30pm to check if the parents had dispersed, when a teacher, Ms. Amuche Igbe, informed him that she saw Metuh’s son, Derrick, a former pupil of the school, giving his GSM phone to pupils to use in violation of the school rules. The BNA VP explained that Amuche seized the phone, handed it to him and he dropped it in his office. But he said a few minutes after, three jeeps drove into the school premises at top speed and Metuh alighted from the lead car. “The jeeps drove round and round and this attracted pupils and staff. Metuh alighted and said, ‘who is Pele here’ and I said I am. He said, ‘where is my son’s phone. Before I could speak, he held my throat and pushed me to the ground. He said his boys should put me and another teacher, Babatunde Adedayo, in the car boot and that no police IG or SSS can release us,” Pele said. According to him, a teacher, Hamzat Muftau, who was pleading with the PDP leader to calm down, was knocked to the ground by one of Metu’s aides. He alleged that Metuh’s aides forcibly held Mufutau’s hands and took away his office keys and phone in an attempt to get him to release Derrick‘s phone. Incidentally, Derrick is no longer a pupil of the school as he was withdrawn in December 2010 while in Senior Secondary 2. Pele stated that the teachers, who were apprehensive that he might be killed, advised him to release the phone. Pele said that the PDP leader had no right to visit the school as his son was no longer a pupil, adding that Metuh’s police aides did not intervene when he was being molested. He added that although the incident was reported at Garki Police Station, the Investigating Police Officer identified simply as Felicia said ‘Metuh could not be arrested because he is a big man, but could only be invited.’ Igbe, who corroborated Pele’s claim, stated that she saw Derrick chatting with some female pupils and asked him to leave the school, but instead of leaving, he walked towards the male hostel, saying he wanted to retrieve his phone. She said, “A pupil offered to get the phone for him, but Derrick insisted on collecting it himself. There is a gap in the gate through which a hand held out the phone, but before Derrick could take the phone, I collected it from the person, but I could not identify the pupil who brought it out.” Muftau also explained that every attempt to placate Metuh on the day was rebuffed as he insisted on having the phone. “As I was begging him to take it easy, he said I should just get him the phone, and that it is very expensive and can buy 200 of my own. As I moved closer to him, his aide kicked me in the legs and I fell; he said I was touching his boss. I suffered body pains, but I am better now.” Another eyewitness, Adedayo, a housemaster, described the incident as a show of shame, which might have degenerated into a serious violence if more staff were around. “When Metuh grabbed the VP by the throat, I moved to intervene, but he asked his aide to put me and the VP in the boot of his jeep, and boasted that no IG or SSS can release us,” he explained. A board member of BNA, who does not want to be named, expressed dismay that Metuh, a former board member of the school, would assault teachers in the presence of pupils. “Why I am surprised is that he is a friend of the owner of the school as well as a former BNA board member. The teachers have gone to court and he will meet them there,” she said. But when contacted, Metuh said nobody was man-handled, insisting that the allegation was “a lie to cover up their (the teachers’) incompetence and stupidity.” He said, “They don’t have the right to seize someone’s phone. The school never has such rule on a visiting day. During the visiting day, the pupils have the right to use the phone. When he was in the school, my son took my phone and used it there. The rule doesn‘t say anything about using phone on a visiting day. “Why do they have to victimise a pupil because he left the school? My son and wife were the victims. I don’t want to take issues with them because the owner of the school is my friend. But I welcome the law suit; let them serve me the writ.” The FCT Police Public Relations Officer, Moshood Jimoh, however, said nobody was above the law. He said he would find out about the matter from the Garki Divisonal Police Officer.
