This is the first time someone will say not just what they know but it is. People don't know the facts. I laugh when I see people saying things without digging deep. Sanusi has a serious case to answer. The Genesis of this case was the return money sanusi had from public offering of oceanic bank and that of intercontinental bank was their refusal to buy Société Générale bank. Sanusi was brought in to carry out the assignments. Which he did by placing most of the non executive directors of fbn like John Aboh and the rest as managing director of the so called troubled banks.

All you conspiracy theorist can come up with all your fathom unsubstantiated theories. One thing remains valid, the bank CEO's were rogues, broke ethical standards and stole immensely from the banks. This alone is enough for them to rot in jail.

aolawale025:



The laws are already in place. We just have to let it work. Rule of Law.

What are you saying? How does the law work?

AFONAMARO:


What temperate region are you talking about exactly? Are you trying to hype Sanusi for his actions?

Like I said earlier, what held him from nailing Akingbola and Co? Hope you knew how Akingbola case ended

Do I have to spell everything out for you? How can you get conviction for a big criminal like Akingbola from a messed up system like Nigeria? Temperate region is where the snow falls, it conotes developed societies. I don't know or did not say that Sanusi is a saint, but anybody that thinks Cecilia, Akingbola and co should not be in jail for their handling of the banks, is either very naive(has no knowledge about the case) or very corrupt!

bishop4life:





thank you very much. I knew they were lucky but I also knew they were witch hunted. if I knew nothing at all I knew international was sold to its debtor. That is a clear sign of witch hunt.

So how do you act against wrong practices in Nigeria without it been a witch hunt?

bishop4life:




sadly, truth it is.

Believe it at your peril...truth ko truth Ni! Those CEO are lucky they tried a shit like that in a place like Nigeria...they would have never seen the sun again if they had tried it in the temperate region.

aolawale025:


True some banks broke some rules. However that doesn't mean we cut off the nose to spite the face. I worked closely with some of big names then. Soludo had come up with a way to deal with the problem. After he left, the CBN action was overboard. To justify it. They had to crucify some people and lay out all kinds of reasons like you mentioned. But the fact is the under lining issues that were not mentioned was the biggest catalyst

I worked in financial services for a while myself and those bank chiefs should still be in jail! Maybe a different approach should have been taken to save the banks and reduce investors losses...but the bank chiefs should have been sent to jail forever!

aolawale025:


"Son of the emirate" may work more in government. Because it could not help sanusi when elumelu decided he had to leave UBA. At that time the stakes Aig. Elumelu and Co had in the industry was more than Sanusi had. In banking real hard cash comes before influence.

Wrong! In Nigeria, the strongest factor considered priotized in ANY power equation is political tires! Dont get it twisted!

AFONAMARO:


Landlord nobody is painting anything. If you think you have a point please air it and educate us. That's the whole essence of this forum.

Hope you were aware Aig was a management staff in GTB before leaving to form Access bank, whereas Wigwe was the brain behind Access. Please were was Sanusi or rather, who was Sanusi during that time?

Thats the point I am trying to make exactly! Sanusi is is a quintessential epitome of privilege, his ties to the Kano emirates makes the likes of Aimokuede and Wigwe just another one of the Nigerian masses relative to him. There is no way Sanusi was their stooge!

aolawale025:


When Aig and Wigwe were EDs, Sanusi was a GM at UBA. After he left UBA he joined FBN and became ED, months later he became MD and shortly after CBN governor.

Interesting details, it does not however prove your claim. Sanusi's family name is enough to open any door in Nigeria, the Aig's and Wigwes dont even enjoy the kind of influence/protection that comes with been a son of the Emirate, so his name got him covered. That aside, Oceanic bank and many other banks broke virtually every ethical rule of banking, from insider borrowing, manipulation of bank stocks to borrowing heavily from interbank lending window to offset operational cost. Say something else and I would agree with you, but Cecilia Ibru, Akingola and Atuche them were all crooks that had to go down. If you say they were not the only ones, then that makes sense.

larryUG:

Bros you are right. Aig and Wigwe Used Sanusi to set up Akingbola. The point is that Tony frustrated Sanusi out of UBA. so Sanusi wanted to pay him and Jim Ovia back. Its unfortunate Cecilia was the scapegoat. As for doz access bank guys that bought over intercontinental even though they were owing him, i dont know what to say

You guys are conjuring some fictional pictures to make yourselves happy. Who is Aig and Wigwe to influence Sanusi? Were does the power configuration come from?

sad one indeed. unfortunately we live in a country were anything goes! In advanced climes, the outlet would have been investigated to discover the cause of the " food poisoning".....thereby preventing future reoccurrence. It is the least option we tend to go for, blaming diabolical means, wealthy relations etc....anything but the factors that will bring us closer to civilisation.
Anyways, my heart goes out to his family and his crewmen.
P/S: Guy abeg don't drink and drive!!!!!

True talk bro...we will get there hopefully someday. But this guy for no go...he is the last child with plenty prospects...funds just surround the guy.

I hear your advice...infact almost on a daily basis and it makes sense but we just loose guard on that day as the distance from his house to mine is less than 3km, you know as young ballinh men can be now...

Charly68:
Nigeria we hail thee! Why would the SSS be falsifying the truth to destroy this man? Somebody must be up to a sinister plot..the president must be careful with some of this people .

Looks like Sahara reporters have the correct gist on this one...they have since reported that Daura is out to deal with Magu for daring to go after some persons...Tonye cole of Sahara energy was one of the said people.
Buhari is probably too old and dull to understand that he is going to self destruct if things continue this way, how can an agency under his supervision not get clearance from him on his nominee before sending cooked up shit to the Assembly of criminals? Is the Dss power tussling with him? What a disappointment Buhari is.

I knew the Senate doesnt have shit on him.

toprealman:
source.

They died of food.poisoning...not that they were poisoned as you watch on home videos.

The guy is a friend of mine...a very close friend of my cousin through whom I knew him for about 15 years now. He is from Ufuma in Anambra.
This unfortunate incidence happened in Lagos when him and his mum went to visit their sister who is married and based there. The three of them went out one evening to have a good time at a joint were they had drinks and grill (Suya), after leaving the place the trio started having severe stomach upset, this would later kill the boy and his mum but their sister survived after been unconscious for some days. Whatever killed them was from the meat..but people are saying different things (too much home video) because the sisters husband is super wealthy.
This is a very big tragedy as the guy is in his prime and was just about to open his business in Abuja, infact he has already paid the rent and furnished the place ...his senior sister is very wealthy thanks to her husband and she has been very benevolent to him.
Whenever I go home for xmas I always drive in company of my cousin to their giant mansion in Ufuma...he also calls on us always when we are home. Its a big loss. Incidentally, his father was also burried last year and that was the last time I saw and would see Ebuka...i take solace in the fact that we had a good last time at least, as we drank to stupor and crashed my cousins dads new Prado (which we borrowed for show) as a result. We were hoping to grove once am in the country...but not with him again.
Adieu Ebuka but you no do well oh..who go chop all your sister plenty money?

kutchs:

Exactly the same thing Magu is accused of, living beyond his means and you have no problem with that.

And the DSS an agency under the President submitted this damning report against the Presidents nominee to the Senate? is the DSS dragging power/sabotaging the President or are you just brain dead and can't see whats starring in your face?

nwakibie3:


I know that the senators are thieves but since magu has been caught in his own act, let him face the consequences then the day of reckoning is also coming for the senators. First caught first punished...

Why would the corrupt senators want to sack a corrupt guy who happens to also be Efcc chair? Why not just play ball with him since he knows what's up?

ndcide:


I gave you points for you to reason, your emotional self couldn't take it. I apologize for engaging you. I didn't know you were so shallow in reasoning.

Wait you want me to start an argument with you over this? Really? I must have grossly underated how stupid you are. To you it takes the court ruling before major thieves can be called thieves? Nigerian courts faa, were presiding judges who are on less than 4million a year salary on the average are billionaires? If you want to argue go to newspaper vendors, time has a price where I live.

ndcide:



You are only foolishly supporting corruption because of useless political sentiments.

Can you list The senators you call thieves and their corresponding crimes and tell me it wouldn't be just an allegation.

Don't you see, you've been programmed to dismiss the allegations against Magu, while you hold unto your stance that every senator is a thief.

doesn't it sound silly?

Must it be Magu to occupy that position? Is he the only one qualified for it? are you saying he shouldn't clear his name? are you saying we should all move on, simply because he is Magu? or simply because You love him? must corruption be subject to your own definition?

I think you are the one smoking crack.

For emphasis, Itse Sagay is being prejudiced by running to the media to say accused judges should step aside fro perception reasons and then come again and say Magu MUST be EFCC chairman without considering perception too.

For your information, It is against the spirit of the constitution should buhari insist on Magu having being rejected by the senate. If the constitution wanted the president to take a unilateral decision it wouldn't state that Magu's appointment will be subject to confirmation by the senate.



Please let's stop this hypocrisy.

Stupid man the people know the thieves in their mist, for the fact that you say the senate is clean manifest how corrupt you are.

Adegboruwa knows how ill informed and dumb Nigerians are (very manifestly on nairaland) and thats why he keeps spilling bullshits like this; for is it the Efcc prosecuting or Magu?

ndcide:



Remember he was the one running to the media asking the accused judges to step aside.

The same man says accused Magu shouldn't step aside.

When we want to deal with them never forget to include itse Sagay.

What ever you guys smoke in Nigeria this days is really brain damaging. Why do people reason like 2year old kids? Whoever that thinks that Magu's non-confirmation was due to some fathom security report that the President was not privy to is brain dead. A Senate house full of thieves with almost all it members currently been persecuted by Efcc under Magu's leadership, and you all think his non-confirmation is because he is corrupt? Lol...Nigeria is really a zoo!

hedonistic:

Again, what's your point?

If your acclaimed mighty Adegboruwa is been sincere he would have backed his claim with the relevant section of the constitution. Adegboruwa and Mike Ozehkome are notorious for misinforming the public, they are known friends of thieves and enemies of state.

The security at the churches and around the god of men is likened to what you find in government houses today. The supposed men of God are being guided with heavy security and are cruising around in armored vehicles while they ask their members to protect themselves with the blood of Jesus. (Anonymous 2016)


one wonders if the blood of Jesus cannot also cover the men of God?

Not Just Shouting........Where are our legal practitioners cos dis fits sueing..........No European Country wil let dis go just like that

Do some reading boy, dont just waste your mb on nairaland. Countries, very prosperous countries are legalizing prostitution so whats your point again?

ATERI:


Nothing makes what you described as peculiarly Nigerian

Did his write up suggest that its unique to Nigeria? The issue is why are Nigerians always living in denial? do you know that prostitution is legal in some prosperous European countries? So why do Nigerians always deny the obvious does it make it go away?

maestroferddi:
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.

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?

maestroferddi:
Tribalism is the elephant in the room that will keep bedevilling this contraption called Nigeria.

Even the blind can see that Buhari is pushing the nation close to the precipice.

How will this country forge ahead as a united in the future when APC leaves office tomorrow and another party comes to power.

Does the ignorant crowd willing Buhari to continue with tyranny and repression consider that should the opposition win power in the nearest future, Nigeria will most likely become history since there would be retaliation from the victims of the current persecution?

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?

Johnrake69:


Why abandon the topic under discussion? And to even clear your wrong assumption of the 2016 budget. The budget for the Presidency actually increased significantly in comparison to the preceeding administration's budget. It increased from #20,085,865,120 to #39,124,978,811. (figures are directly from site of budget office of the federation) and so, it will sound absurd for anybody to adjudge the current government as far as this budget is concerned of being fiscally responsible.

You just wasted your time committing ad hominem fallacy.

You are talking about national embarassment right? I can tell you 1001 reasons why you should be very ashamed to be a Nigerian already and missing budget is a non-issue when Juxtaposed with these reasons.

Get your priorities right!

DerideGull:



The bolded part of the above crap showed how little you really know. You could have hidden your stark ignorance if you had kept your putrid loud mouth shut. MASSOB was formed during Obasanjo's reign while Radio Biafra started broadcast during Musa Yar Adua's time. It sucks to be you.

Only in a dumbass country such as Nigeria that goofy stiffs like you join "stolen fund and finance for budget" together.

I will be benevolent and call you a slowpoke, but you are really worse than that!
As we speak right now, about N300billion recovered loot has been incorporated into this years budget. You think we would not need to draw a Budget in the coming years? or whats really going on in your small mind?
Why has the agitation for the Biafran state suddenly become so fierce and a very important issue for Ndigbo? Why not before the elections?
A low life bastard like you comes here to muddle watters and mis-inform people about motives and outcomes of events with the aim of frustrating the anti corruption crusade and protecting your criminal pay masters.
Guy brace up because looted money will be recovered even if it means applying force, all your yam eating masters (cause you are a very small fry) will refund us.

Johnrake69:


It's your head that needs to be critically examined. It seems your really clueless as to what is really happening and you have the audacity to come spew your ignorance in public. Shame on you. The same government that have always insisted it never withdrew the appropriation bill for any reason.

The following reference will help to cure your ignorance. Get well soon.

[/color]The Federal Government has denied speculations on a purported withdrawal of the 2016 Appropriation Bill from the National Assembly for certain “alterations”. The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, in a telephone chat with our correspondent last night described it as a “big lie”. There were speculations that President Muhammadu Buhari had written to the National Assembly requesting to withdraw the budget proposal.[color=#990000]

Its obvious your one of the police recruits that the IG introduced mental check because of.
You are not embarrased that Saraki (the senate president) has numerous financial miss-appropriation cases currently on his neck and still occupies a sensitive office, but somehow the withdrawal or better put, the sneaking out of a budget to adjust the presidents bills downward gives you a hard on? You see its not difficult to see that something is terribly wrong with you.

In defence you quote the presidential spokesman denial, like they ever speak the truth. Nigerians dont care that Lai mohanmed keeps lieing, we care that the cost of running our government is reduced period. If they like let them snatch the budget to adjust it downward, its a welcome development.
