A Wiesel blower did his blowing.......

Auditors did their jobs internally and externally as laid down by rules of the bank..........

The board of governance sat, investigated for a period of 3months.......and report was submitted.

The chairman received the report, ruled and a position was taken........

Now a COMMON minister from one country, (only one stake holder out of many with "lesser stake ) wrote for an independent probe and it became a serious issues for discuss.

I sense fowl play. Why would you have rules, procedures, mechanism, code of conduct(s) and governing systems in place and you are saying indirectly that they should be junked because of the opinion of one individual.

If the probe should stand, the long and short of it is that the entire system is not functioning and the actors are not competent hence all of them should be relieved of their positions.

Where did the external investigators come from? Who paid them?

The bank’s internal procedures are clear, it is only the ethics committee that can investigate the president. The ethics committee probed him for three good months and found nothing, that should be the end of the matter. If the US want another investigation, there must be an amendment to the rules and regulations of the bank. Corruption cannot be fought through illegality. An independent investigation of the president is in violation of the banks rules, regulations and governance system.

While I agree with u, it’s obvious smtmes internal investigation systems are most times either flawed or biased. Case study is FIFA. Internal Investigative committee found nothing on him still the US stepped in.

I however have a problem with the timing of the investigation. It’s very suspicious. That is my major problem here.

Shut up shut up shut up!!! Like what they saw in Libya, Iraq, Syria Afghanistan, Venezuela, Bolivia etc you Better go and reset your head password western media has rubbished it.

America can see, yet they don't see the white supremacist killing African Americans in cold blood.
You think what happened in Libya can't happen in Nigeria abi? after hijacking the Africa Development bank the next will be Nigeria's presidency it's because of people like you and our useless leaders the West can Penetrate us.

You faulted all the investigation done by your fellow Africans but accepted the concurted lies of the west you should be Ashamed of yourself if you're above 25yrs and reason like this.

Good job by OBJ and mins of finance I'm 100% in accordance with the letter it's more about independent than corruption. Hope this will be a wake up call to all the leaders and the youths.

Adeshina is one of the best yet they want to rubbish him that's how they killed Gaddafi it's becoming glaring the west don't mean good for Africa. They've succeeded in pulling Allen onyema have they seem anything on him yet? And yet you believe them better wake up if you're sleeping.

Like they saw with Gaddafi, Saddam, Patrice Patrice lumumba, fidel Castro, Hugo's Chavez and in Panama, Afghanistan, Vietnam, syria.

Pally, please I request that you respectfully read the real world history. You might want to start with : The Confessions Of An Economic Hitman". After that reanalyze the entire situation again. You will have a better understanding. Once it has to do with money and global finance, I will take anything US says with a pinch of salt. Hell its Afdb. They have laid down rules and they should be followed to the letter. If they do not like it , they can sell their shares.

They only see what they either orchestrated or plain lies and then fuel massive propaganda to force their position. That is their M.O. Obasanjo knows them too well, hence his letter to Afdb. Infact any ex and current President knows. Going against their interests can spell instant death via coup or direct targeting after massive propaganda like Gaddafi and Saddam.

This is a welcome development. Africa must unite to stop the attempt by US to impose a stooge as president of the bank. Kudos to president Obasanjo and the FG of Nigeria for this promt intervention. Hopefully, ECOWAS and Africa Union will also take similar position as the FG of Nigeria. This is a fight for the development, progress, and freedom of Africa and not Adesina’s fight alone.

OBJ's letter is inappropriate as it can be said to be invoking a parallel government of ex presidents.
He should shat da f up and allow the governments in power to respond formally as they are doing already.

Yes America will always try to bully everyone who does not buy into their idea, but they will never say you are corrupt when they don't have anything on you.
They don't come to fight with nothing, and Nigerians are "fantastically" corrupt.

No be only them sabi play the game...

Personally...I don't mind adesina stepping down and external investigators coming in....
But the timing is just too suspicious....

It points to only one thing- they want adesina out....
It has nothing to do with finding out if he's guilty or not....

What is all this noise about AfDB and the US investigating Adeshina. If the AFDB boss is free of any charge then there's absolutely nothing to be afraid of unless he's got skeleton in his cupboard.
Saying the US is trying to impose a stooge isnt necessary. Akinwumi Adeshina's innocence will be affirmed by US investigators or independent investigation report at the end of the day.He also stand to gain more trust within AfDB,Africa and all concern
And to get credence, he needs the US to walk him through an investigation that had been carried out on him for 3 months, even if they'll have to break protocols? All I see is the US telling the bank's internal Investigators that they don't really know how to do their job. It has more to do with ethics than the claim to corruption.

This is one of the reasons they killed ghadaffi. They can't let Africa led itself. Ghadaffi want Africa to use one currency, backed up by gold reserves; thereby reducing the influence of the west in Africa, they took him out. It's time Africa see these people for who they are, the ENEMIES. To hell with all their aid. Africa unite.

what you put up here does it agree with the AfDB's rules and regulations? Learn to judge issues with recourse to rules and not merely by what you think.

This is a fierce battle for the SOUL of AfDB. I hope Africa wins.

Finally, the issues of visionless leadership, corruption and poor management of countries' economies have come to haunt Africa. We don't even fully own our bank!

Believe me, if Akinwumi Adesina will survive this storm, two things will help.
1. His personal relationship and rapport with leaders of Germany, France, Japan and Canada well as most African countries. Even after serving under Jonathan, he maintained good relationship with Pres Buhari. He has this intellectual charm. Part of his offence is that he has virtually secured 2nd term unopposed without recourse to almighty United States.

2. The hatred which EU has for the proud narcissistic Donald Trump, the President of United States. Nigeria should exploit this to protect our candidate and image as a country.

All these letters will put diplomatic pressure on AfDB Board of Directors but if US garners the support of key non-African shareholders, Akinwumi Adesina will go because Francophone countries will always toe the line drawn by France thereby deflating Africa's resistance. In addition, I don't trust South Africa to protect Nigeria's interest.
Should I tell you what will suprise you? Adeshina is being fought by his fellow african who wants to succeed him. The US is just the big power smoke screen being use as a front. Most African countries have hatred for Nigeria

To prove the allegations do not even need any evidence.

Its based on what the investigators think.

Laid down rules must always be followed. USA just ridiculed the ethics committee.

I believe at the moment Adesina's candidacy is unopposed awaiting formal voting for ratification. I stand to be corrected. He was able to woo African leaders to support him. One Diop who wanted to challenge him was shut down by his own president.
