I think Buhari should have like 3 houses on record (no one can say if this is really true) which should be in Abuja, Kaduna and his hometown Daura. He will get an additional one in Abuja after he leaves office as his entitlement being a former president just like the rest.

He has only 3 houses but all his kids lived and schooled in the UK which is an investment of at least 20 million naira per child. So he may have 3 houses but he definitely can afford many more.

[quote author= post=118287896]You blame APC government for frustrating investors in Nigeria with their bad policies, Anambra still control shares in Intafact, the company pays the highest tax to Anambra State Government till tomorrow

Obi’s administration invested the sum of N1,955,535,247.00 (an equivalent of approximately $12,616,356.43 at the then average CBN exchange rate of N155.00/$1) in Intafact Beverages Limited, a green-field brewery set up in Onitsha by SABMiller Breweries of South Africa, Anambra state government still holds 407,321,264 ordinary shares of International Breweries Plc in exchange for the Intafact Beverages Limited investment.
Based on the NGX closing price of N5.50 as of these shares were valued at N2,240,266,952 on that date,” the statement reads in part.
Based on the Central Bank of Nigeria I&E exchange rate of N415.75/US$1.00 on same June 20, 2022, this investment was valued at an equivalent of approximately US$5,388,495.37 (and at N604/$1.00 parallel market rate, only US$3,709,051.24).[/quote]By the time you people can learn that it is okay to admit that your candidate has faults, ten some of us will take you seriously.

You are here tying yourself up in a knot trying to debunk financial analysis from a former central bank governor. You don't even understand what you're saying. The share price is not directly correlated with inflation. It is, like every other asset, correlated with the performance of the company.

So, if the company was doing well, its share prices, and valuation will rise with the dollar not drop against it.

Obi is not perfect, and has many flaws. Until you can acknowledge this, you people are just doing a personality cult in the garb of a political movement. And everyone else can see this!

It's at obalende CMS .

I'm joking o. It's not.


Grow up.
If calling out those engaging in immoral acts affects you in some way, then repent and turn a new leaf.


No. It's not like that. The yam just enter my eyes as I was ordering for swallow. so I said let me have a taste of it after resting a bit and it was nice. My

Up till now, I'm still full and will not eat anything again tonight.

Glutton.

Shockingly, not one peron has shown up to call him Jubril.

Bawa is actually doing an honest job for the most part. The role of the EFCC in controlling Naira spikes against the dollar at crucial moments has been pivotal.

Shybeauty:
I'm really tired. I wouldn't be concerned because I have others that stare but i don't give attention but I'm cut up with him because I feel he likes me

A shy guy might do this. So also a narcissist. Flirt with him and see if he becomes distant. If he does, he was playing with you.

If not, he will make the next move.

VeryWickedGoat:
Why was it handled by the FBI?

Because the FBI has the mandate to deal with transnational organized crime, which covers financial crimes like money laundering. Same reason hushpuppy was picked up by the FBI you ignorant being.

I'm sure you also don't know that the US has an agency in charge o investigating drug-related offences, called the DEA. Yours is to constitute a nuisance on nairaland by leaving utterly brain-dead content everywhere.

VeryWickedGoat:
Okay.
Since he is innocent as claimed, he should demand the refund of his $500k.

Its obvious, as stated in all the reports, he forfeited that sum of money for other financial improprieties.

Let's see if it will make FP. Awon osinwin eniyan MOD's

So as it has made FP will you do the right thing by apologizing to the mods?

Jeweltz:
Those of you asking what am I bringing. I give him peace of mind and be his support

This can't be a serious thread.

How is this guy much bigger than everyone in his family? Lol.

The funniest part is that had he remained in nigeria he would possiblyy have been doing bouncer at quilox or following Wozkid upandan.

chimaroka60:
Wow ��� who knew that something good can come out of Nigerian Nassareth
Hmmmmmmmmmmm this is lovely

So many good things have come out of Nigeria. Dont pretend not to notice!

simajh:
What do Wike really want

After reading this you are asking what Wike wants? I thought you would ask what Atiku wants??

coconutbag:
Oh, how can they jail an individual for the failure of a government entity?

Who is the government entity? Is it not directed by an individual?

This is a misnomer, and this is not what Bawa said.

Bawa said they filed an appeal to the judgment on the substantive issue-thus suspending the immediate effect of the court judgment on the return of the seized items, and not the contempt issue.

Roboto11:
Instead of Fred Making the team, Bobby should have been selected.

They don't play anything close to the same position. Did you stat watching ball yesterday?

Meanwhile have you see how many forward the took??

FreeStuffsNG:
I can see that you have the technical experience where money and cash is given to a suspected criminal to use that proceed of crime to do case with govt. smh

The SC has stated that where national security is at stake, humanright takes the back seat. FG will not release that money and car to him to sell the car and cash out no matter what the judge thinks. It is proceed of crime like this that give the nation serious security problems.

I have told you the appropriate procedure, which is a stay of execution, that would prevent the Courts judgment from being executed until the prosecution has had a chance to appeal the judgment. So there is no reason why the EFCC had to detain those items illegally.

Now, take note:

1. This has absolutely nothing to do with national security and human rights. This is a regular criminal matter and a question of procedural law.

2. There is absolutely no situation, national security or otherwise, where law enforcement bodies are entitled to ignore Court orders. When it is time for national security to trump human rights, it is still left to the Courts to make the final determination.

In all cases, the supremacy of the Courts is non-negotiable.

FreeStuffsNG:
Yeah. I was born yesterday and this car and cash that can be depleted before Appeal Court and Supreme court judgement should be released because a judge sitting down in his office thinks he is all knowing.

There is a legal procedure for everything!

When you go to Court in such matters and lose, you must immediately file for a stay of execution - if that is not done, you have absolutely no right to disobey a court order just because you don't like it.

FreeStuffsNG:
Mockery of the judicial process. He should have invited him or fine EFCC, sending efcc to jail is laughable. If implemented, tomorrow it will be ndlea next.
That guy is not getting those items and cash back since it is proceeds of crime. The Judge can give judgement while efcc goes to appeal court and then SC.His court is not the final court.

You don't know what you're talking about.

DadaHammed:
Abdukrasheed Bawa is now a convicted felon.

Whenever he decides to play active politics and vie for an election, this conviction will be digged up to disqualify him. Continue disobeying court orders. You will pay one way or the other.

No, he is not a convicted felon because he was never charged with a criminal offence. He has been cited for contempt of Court. Very different.

Tochj:
Have you ever heard soldiers burning houses in the North?

They did terrible things in the north east. Amnesty International has covered these events so you can google the report and read.

CSTRR:
Was it obidients that voted for Buhari?

Unproductive attempts at sarcasm.

I hope you will continue your sarcasm in 2023 and beyond.

lol. Oh don't attack me for pointing out the obvious comedy of your post! This is what you said:

The best brains are gone. Na korofo remain for Nigeria now.

No wonder the majority of the electorates in Nigeria are stupid and can't make simple rational electoral choices, which the disapora can see clearly.

I'm willing to concede that it's possible you just don't understand the use of tenses very well. Well, I'll help: you used the present tense, and whichever way you want to put it, you've insulted the Obidients who believe they now make up the majority of the electorate.

CSTRR:
America and UK are just poaching all the humans with above average IQ from Nigeria, while leaving the Tinubu supporting idiots for us to cope with it.

The best brains are gone. Na korofo remain for Nigeria now.

No wonder the majority of the electorates in Nigeria are stupid and can't make simple rational electoral choices, which the disapora can see clearly.

But buuuut .... Obidients have taken over the country and Peter Obi will walk to victory?

So this gentleman believes Obidients have below average iq's?

Savage!

zeuss:
Nobody is a saint especially in our society....if the girl is ur soulmate then cut her slack and change her.

The last hk i did was telling me how her bf can swear that she is innocent.

Even the normal looking girls are doing this hk of a thing. That's the reality.

So OP, if ur girl is into it purely for money, I would say be lenient.

But collect like half of the money.

ALTERNATEID:
Very strong words from the governor. I’m not an Atiku supporter but I think there is a need to tune down some of these rhetorics so as not to overheat the polity. All hands should be on deck to fashion out a lasting solution to the security problems confronting us and not politicize it.

Btw, Gov Ortom and other turncoat PDP governors should waste no further time in declaring full support for Asiwaju Bola Tinubu. He is the only nationalist in the race who will carry everybody along in ensuring national peace and security. He will stabilize the polity, settle all primordial disagreement, revive the economy and set the country on the path of shared prosperity. He’s the best bet for Nigeria at the moment.

A younger Tinubu would have been the man for the job. Intelligent but crooked enough to know how to handle rough men.

But you and I know that Tinubu is not fit again.

TechW:
See, I know the truth in all the aforementioned, I however extremely busy at the moment to engage you in them as they all cock and bull stories.

Are you and I supposed to be online defending any of them or are we supposed to be thinking of how we can get all of them out?? Why should you defend Peter Obi's wrongs? Do you owe him or does he owe you?? I am not defending him but stating what I know about him.

Is that propaganda or fact?? Was he not the governor at the time of the massacre? Was the notorious James Nwafor not known to Peter Obi?
Police or SARs is not under the command of the state government but federal government , get your fact right.
Did Peter Obi say anything about it? Yes of course, He even abandon his trip for that, will send you the link to that when I'm less busy

Lol. Just like that? Someone withdrew 250 million in cash, as against ethics and the law and you say you believe him without any shred of proof? People like you are the problem of Nigeria honestly. Becasue he may happen to be our kinsma you refuse to acknowledge that what he did was indeed a textbook corrupt practice, but if Tinubu says he is not corrupt, you won't believe that one.

Wake up!

You can think of what you want Tinubu bullion vans were there for all to see. He wears corruption as a cloth. Peter Obi is not my kinsman and that's final.

Is using bullion vans a crime?

I would rather he conducted himself with integrity, and use the money for what it was meant for. And if he must invest, he ought to have invested following ethical principles.
if he had done something bad, He would have been invited by the law enforcement agency let it be that he was acquitted but uptil today, nobody has sued him for it, meaning that he did not break the law.


Besides, when you talk about trustworthy investments, is it that you don't know that the investment made lost value by more than 60%?? A complete and total wast of about 7 million USD that should have been used for infrastructural developments.

But that is okay, since anyone can make an economic mistake. What is important is that he did not act ethically!!

This is the most stupid thing I have ever read in my life, I did not expect you to say this, reason being that your own money in the bank has lost even more value than that.

The money lost value because it was invested in naira in Nigeria, no thanks to APC led administration. Invest in infrastructure like what?

Your responses here indeed show that you are a hypocrite. A shameless hypocrite.

Tinubu is a criminal because he used bullion vans but Obi that was caught with 250 million and pandora accounts is not. Have you no shame?

If you give a fund manager 100 dollars to manage for you and he returns 40 dollars to you and says it was because of inflation won't you have him arrested? You are comparing share prices to mone in the bank you clown. Oh...let me guess, you actually don't have the slightest clue how these things work.

But you're just being your shameless self by focusing n the economic aspect of it in order to divert attention from the real issue, Peter Obi's unethical decision to take the people's money and put it into his company, in order to enrich himself and his family. An act he outrightly denied until Kadaria Ahmed forced him into a corner.

You are entirely a shameless and silly boy.

TechW:
Let me explain it to you,
where others see limitations, some others see opportunity, Peter Obi wanted to change the narrative in Anambra, he has to use an unknown party like APGA to do, it happens when you believe in yourself, before then it used to be PDP and AD in Anambra state.
During end SARs, he was vocal hence the birth of Awkuzu SARS propaganda/allegation during his tenure.
Using SARs against his political enemies? Your own propaganda I guess? I have never heard of this your own version of campaign of calumny.
The aid was caught with N250M, for you to say unknown purpose shows that you have refused to believe his own side of the story. I believed his own side of it.
A man who ploughed state funds into his private enterprise? Would you rather he had invested it into something he did not trust? the fact that he made it public shows that he did not mean harm, some did not invest theirs, they looted everything..
For me, He is sincere with the fear of God.
Atleast, He left office and demands nothing from the state that afterwards, Can you say that about others?

Your last line shows that you still don't get it.

Are you and I supposed to be online defending any of them or are we supposed to be thinking of how we can get all of them out?? Why should you defend Peter Obi's wrongs? Do you owe him or does he owe you??

Now:

1. During end SARs, he was vocal hence the birth of Awkuzu SARS propaganda/allegation during his tenure.

Is that propaganda or fact?? Was he not the governor at the time of the massacre? Was the notorious James Nwafor not known to Peter Obi?

Did Peter Obi say anything about it?

That is the question you should answer, not beating about the bush. Dear fellow youth, Why see A and call it B? Remember, Obi owes you, not you owing him some duty to twist the truth in his defence.

2. Using SARs against his political enemies? Your own propaganda I guess? I have never heard of this your own version of campaign of calumny.

That you don't like the truth doesn't make it a campaign of calumny. Such a comment shows that your intentions are not pure. Instead of asking for evidence, you resort to insults as a defence. Again, why? What is motivating this level of defensiveness?

Well, this is information in the public domain:

Peter Obi himself, had a case to answer before the End Sars panels:

https://www.ripplesnigeria.com/ex-gov-peter-obi-set-me-up-used-sars-to-demolish-my-hotel-businessman-tells-endsars-panel/

Sadly, he treated this case with disdain:

https://punchng.com/you-cant-try-peter-obi-lawyer-tells-endsars-panel/

You don't even know the person you are exerting yourself to defend. How genuine is your defence then??

3. The aid was caught with N250M, for you to say unknown purpose shows that you have refused to believe his own side of the story. I believed his own side of it.

Lol. Just like that? Someone withdrew 250 million in cash, as against ethics and the law and you say you believe him without any shred of proof? People like you are the problem of Nigeria honestly. Becasue he may happen to be our kinsma you refuse to acknowledge that what he did was indeed a textbook corrupt practice, but if Tinubu says he is not corrupt, you won't believe that one.

Wake up!

4. A man who ploughed state funds into his private enterprise? Would you rather he had invested it into something he did not trust?

I would rather he conducted himself with integrity, and use the money for what it was meant for. And if he must invest, he ought to have invested following ethical principles.

Besides, when you talk about trustworthy investments, is it that you don't know that the investment made lost value by more than 60%?? A complete and total wast of about 7 million USD that should have been used for infrastructural developments.

But that is okay, since anyone can make an economic mistake. What is important is that he did not act ethically!!


Try to be sincere.

TechW:
Moghalu and co have never held any executive political position to give us an idea about what to expect and if you are sincere to yourself, you'd know that Peter Obi or myself have never lambasted PDP but feel that as things are now, Peter Obi is the best option, peter choice change with time, I would have said the same if it was Osinbajo instead of Obi.
I can't pick Atiku when Obi is available, Tinubu is a no, no for me.

I thought that was the point? That we don't want any of those who are from the old establishment? In reality Peter Obi has spent his entire career in AGPA and PDP, and while there is some good that he did, he maintained the same pattern as the establishment.

Why do we pretend??

A man who kept mum when SARS rained havoc on the youths?

A man who used SARS against his political opponents?

A man whose aide was caught with a quarter of a billion naira in cash for unknown purposes?

A man who ploughed state funds into his private enterprise?

Between me and you, is Peter Obi sincerely not a regular member of the establishment?

Okoroawusa:
If you think that there is a difference between IPOB supporters and Peter Obi supporters then your education is a waste.

Definitely very little difference. I discovered rhis from a real life conversation i had with two new colleagues. The two of them happen to be Igbo.

Perso A after asking person B here name, said oh, are you a Biafran?

Person B, with some initial hesitatoon replied yes.
I hope you are Obidient he followed up.

"Of course" she replied.

I was quiet and wondered to myself:

How can you be both biafran - a breakaway nation, and in the same breadth lay claim to a political movement in the country you have disowned?

Secondly, why was it taken to be a matter of course that a biafran must identify as an Obidient??

TechW:
What does it have to do with the voters, Those in PDP and APC are both Nigerians likewise Labour party so, the issue is about those that will run the affairs of the party and what they represent. In 2019, we have limited options to choose from hence, it was either PDP or APC but now that we have a better candidate, why not? if by tomorrow we see someone better, we move, life is dynamic , hence some make it and some do not make it in life because they keep doing one thing over and over expecting a different result

In 2019 you didn't have Moghalu, Sowore, and other non-establishment people to choose from?

Lol.

What we are even saying is, okay, now you have Obi, go ahead and choose him. But to turn around and lambast PDP after you ran on their ticket as running mate to Atiku?

That means Obi was deceiving Atiku then, or he is deceiving the youths now.

Either way, a deceiver is a deceiver.

hush15:
That's not true and that is the second anniversary of the protest at the tollgate was all about.

If you can furnish me with a link of any news that he has followed the recommendations of the very panel the governor himself set up, ofcourse I will accept and move on but till then, I trust in God to deliver judgement which I know He will.

Earlier, the Chairman of the Panel, Justice Okuwobi expressed deep appreciation to the State government and all the stakeholders who appeared before the panel and the team for uncommon resolve and good team work.

Okuwobi, who disclosed that the panel awarded a total of N410 million to 70 victims of Police brutality, said 235 petitions were received with only 14 of it being on the alleged Lekki shooting incident.

“As much as the panel desired to have taken all petitions, the ones that were not taken by the panel were those that did not comply with our rules, so in this report, we made recommendations for a body to take over human rights abuse cases in Lagos State” Okuwobi said.

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2021/11/lekki-toll-gate-saga-history-ll-judge-us-says-sanwo-olu/

So the onus is now on you to tell us which and which persons are due for compensation but have not been paid.

hush15:
DEAR URCHIN,
Let him start with the names and families recommended by the same Panel he constituted.

He has compensated them. Why not look for info before building a case of assumptions??
