But seriously op, do u rili want pmb to stay on prosecuting every corrupt act? He's already called "papa go slow" frm the few cases he has filed.

I think we should allow this man some space 2 do dat Wch he wishes and forge ahead with other salient matter.

Investigation completed... case file ready...money already recovered... All buhari needs is to arrest them and take them to court for trial and conviction...and over $140million will drop into our treasury...What did he go to America to do if he wasn't interested in fighting corruption and recovering funds

cupidhero:
Four hundred and something billion naira is no joke. T A will put up a good fight but i trust our presisent,after all he once said "the bloods of baboons and monkeys will be soaked in blood if"....weak or good men don't make such statements,i'm sure the devil got jealous of him because he did not up with such wicked and evil statement before buhari did. Even angels go panick upon hearing that. Nigerians forget easily sha,T A is no match for Buhari.

Forget the hype...buhari is simply a power hungry noise maker...military with gun gives you moral to talk anyhow...but we are in democracy...

9jatatafo:
Hmmmmm PMB's hands are tied in this matter and I know very well that America will exploit the visit of PMB to the States and whatever discussions they had.

The only thing needed here is sincerity and political will(courage)...

Niseamaka:
Change is a permanent feature of life. Peoples opinions and stands ain't static. Sometimes circumstances leads to change of views and decisions.

I believe the only thing that changed is that buhari has gotten the power for which he so desired notwithstanding the cost...so he now sits to settle old scores...while his interpreters bamboozle us with lies...claiming glory for projects they don't even understand...

Candyrain:
5k stipend? Another BIG scam

No be small scam bros they plenty online here dey abuse Jonathan expecting buhari to pay

cupidhero:
Is all part of the good image process. He can't even hyde the jekyll in him,always making comments that reveal his true self. I don't care about nigeria's development,i actually voted for buhari so he can deal with T A orji but he is busy touring the world and taking pictures. No matter how naive or dumb a kid is he knows his friends who can steal,lie and do other bad things even if the friend does not do it in his face,how can buhari a grown up man during abacha's regime say abacha is not corrupt. It's all bullshiit,there is what we call word on the street,even if he didn't partake in the looting atleast he heard about it. He should have given a better response than trying to paint a man who stole in plain sight good. I thougt buhari was a real OG but he just proved he's scared of OBJ and co. I only need him to deal with T A orji and nobody else.

You really hate TA Orji...but even that Orji will be too rugged for buhari to humiliate with VERY SERIOUS fight...

nwadiuko1:
buhari got carried away by the campaign exuberance and possibly hate for jonathan and promised Nigerians eldorado........now he z gonna receive as much support as he gave jonathan.......he z in for it......
I pity ma niggaz wey dy wait for 5k

No be small bro...

nwadiuko1:
I think buhari never thought he would win this election so he wasn't and isn't prepared

Only Atiku prepared for presidency in that their APC rank...

1miccza:
All these lenghty posts are irrelevant bro look at the speed with which the Lamido drama ended. But the begining of your lenghty post simply says he ordered for the files as he was preparing to head for the U.S that simply means he did that just to create an impression of working on that case,i'll bet my last coin that it's either he wouldn't touch that case at all or he would doctor it to absolve some people who are his mark my words...

After spending our 2.2billion to America with all the noise about looted funds recovery...they saw looted funds of over a whooping sum of $140million waiting to be repatriated once he prosecutes those officials...he rather turned back and started screaming Jonathan and his ministers like a mad dog

Freemanan:
Okay.

Thanks bro...

Buhari will limit probe to Jonathan’s govt —Presidency

JULY 24, 2015 : AGENCY REPORT

Jonathan, Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari will not extend his corruption probe beyond the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan, the Presidency has said.

According to a report by Premium Times, Buhari, who just returned from a four-day official visit to the United States, has consistently vowed to investigate and bring to book, persons who looted the country’s funds.

The President said on Tuesday in the US that he would arrest and prosecute past ministers and other officials who stole Nigeria’s oil and diverted government’s money into personal accounts.

But the President’s Special Adviser on Media and Public Affairs to Femi Adesina, said the President will limit his anti-corruption war to the immediate past administration in the country.

He said Buhari will not waste time in probing the administrations of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Abdulsalam Abubakar, Sani Abacha and Ibrahim Babangida.

He said even before he was inaugurated on May 29, the President had categorically stated that he would not extend his corruption probe beyond the Jonathan government.

“If you recall, that was already settled before he got inaugurated as President. He has said he will not waste time digging into the far past,” Adesina said.

“The far past will include Obasanjo and others. But the President has said he will not waste time to go that far.”

Before leaving office, Jonathan had said any probe by the new government would be seen as a “witch-hunt” if it fails to go beyond his administration.

Speaking on criticisms over President Buhari’s decision to travel to the US. with his son, Yusuf, the presidential spokesperson said the President did not breach any rule.

He said it was a normal practice for presidents to travel with members of their families, citing the example of American presidents who travelled abroad with their wives and children.

“There is absolutely nothing wrong with the President travelling with one of his sons. It is an acceptable and standard practice. He could go with up to four members of his family.

“Don’t forget that when former President Bill Clinton visited Nigeria while he was in office, he came with his daughter, Chelsea.

“President Barak Obama travels with his children and so the President of Nigeria can travel out with three or four of his children. The late President Umaru Yar’Adua used to travel with two of his sons and one of his grandchildren,” he said.

Adesina described the outcome of the President’s official visit to the US as “a roaring success on every side.”

“There are good returns. It is an investment that will yield very handsome returns,” he said.

.I captured the details of this link in my write up?...Buhari asked for recovery and prosecution of loots of over $150billion dollars which includes this halliburton money...So the point is..will buhari dash america the $140million already recovered

[quote author=meritt post=36236909][/quote]And you came to take yours on mine abi?

nwadiuko1:
you no call me but sha me don register




Btw what do you expect from a man who openly said that abacha did not steal a dime?

No vex bro..welcome... this change motor go sweet wella for people body especially those waiting for 5k stipend...

cupidhero:
This OP no like buhari at all. Face dey fear face o.

So why is he making noise about corruption nah?

dearpreye:
The PDP has already urged Grandpa to go ahead a d probe the administration of former President, GEJ. Let him go ahead and probe it.

It will be almost suicidal for PMB to go ahead and probe the above mentioned scandal. He just can't do it. The network of corruption in Nigeria is so deep and sprawling that a mere mention of certain names will bring this guy's administration to its kneels...forget all the voiced support from the APC supporters..they will go missing when the furnace is ready. He's not a fool to probe the same thieves who worked tirelessly to ensure he made it to Aso Rock. Almost all those who killed this nation are now broom wavers ....

Even an attempt to probe Jonathan alone will end up roping still same people outside their target which is Jonathan... because these people control the economy... they brought Jonathan down because he attempted dislodging them...

LadyExcellency:
Don't mind those savages
Bigots waiting to cease Igbos reward for dignity

Thanks jare

jaybee3:
How much do you think it will cost to prosecute possibly 2 ex presidents and other powerful people with massive resources to defend themselves?

And your point is

Freemanan:
Exactly the bias and sentiment I fear for. Why do you think the aforementioned groups would disprove this? Your type is now the trending species in NIGERIAN politics and it hurts me as a youth to notice such without the power to do anything about it.
You make PDP and the previous President along with all his colleagues look weak and paranoid with your self deluded posts and statements on social media. Do take note that I am in no way addressing your article in the light of siding anyone but JUST to put you in the know of HOW your influence might make more damage than you even intend.
You all think you are making Great tidings in political analysis and party loyalty cum "Nationalism" which the reverse is the case. You pretend to be political pundits and social crusaders by exhibiting hates and sentiment masked with logic and pasting links up and down. Issapitty Mate...
Don't see this as an attack on your person bro, see it as a check on your political positions and social relations especially on social media. I am forced to ask if Nigeria's growth is part of your social crusade or you JUST want the APC GOVERNMENT to fail irrespective of the consequence.
So my GOOD man, divert all your astute and intelligent Brain into a more proNigeria course and not antiAPC course which have no room for human or societal growth.
I Hope you will see this as a talk from a Mate to a Mate. And your paranoid self won't make you see me as one of your APC opponents... Thanks and Sleep well.

Boy...mind yourself...take your hypocrisy out of here...Your mate is my little ones who finished service same time with you...Be warned...

Davvymavvy:
@the bolded, no need!

Nothing justifies his sudden change of mind of not going after the looters of our common wealth. I don't believe in defending politicians that contributed to the sorry state of the country irrespective of their region and religion. They have made us slaves to emotion and bigotry for their own selfish gain. Justice must be serve on the altar of equality!

Thanks...remind buhari and APC of the all these always..

$182m Halliburton Scandal: Buhari orders preparation of case-file

As President Muhammadu Buhari travels to the United States (US) today to engage President Barack Obama in talks on economic, security, financial and anti-graft issues, it has emerged that he has ordered the preparation of the case-file that would lead to the prosecution of the indicted persons in the $182 million Halliburton bribery scandal.

Sunday Vanguard gathered that the President’s directive followed the requirement by the US government of evidence to show that Buhari was ready to prosecute the suspects in Nigeria for their roles in the bribery scandal before it could partner other European countries in releasing the $141million dollars allegedly looted from Nigeria and lodged in various overseas banks.

According to top security sources, Buhari, based on the outcome of investigations by the panel set up to look into the scandal, is scheduled to tell Americans officials during this week’s visit that all those indicted, including former Heads of State, a former Vice President, two former Group Managing Directors of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, will face prosecution to defend themselves.

To further convince the US officials that the kangaroo trial that took place during the Jonathan administration, which saw a former Special Assistant on Domestic Affairs to the President being arraigned and then let off the hook following alleged connivance of certain government institutions, will not re-occur, the President will tell them that private legal practitioners, who cannot compromise because of past government patronage, will be commissioned to handle the case.

It will be recalled that the recent directive by Buhari to reopen the Halliburton bribery case led to the discovery that the $26.5 million plea bargain money released by the oil servicing firm as part of efforts to shield the company from prosecution was not in any government account.

What's your point here?...because even the details of this link are contained in the original post here?...Buhari is president now not Jonathan... Buhari promised WS captured above to fight corruption...Buhari spent our 2.2billion to America for this same purpose of fund recovery...Now, funds are there for him to take...and someone is blabbing...

Freemanan:
The write up is always credible.... But Why can't you see the issues it tackles as a NIGERIAN and not a PDP faithful?

I just did so...noting unequivocally the perpetrators are APC faithfuls and consultants...

barcanista:
God Bless You @ Whynotthetruth

The reason Buhari is backtracking his probe on these men may not be unconnected to the fact that he benefitted directly or indirectly from the Haliburton deal through Sani Abacha, his former boss and benefactor. It could also be that he had an agreement with the cabals for them to use these stolen funds to navigate him to power. Also recall that Buhari had given Abacha a Certificate of Sainthood.

No small sainthood... I wonder his opinion when he receives the one Jonathan concluded its repatriation before his administration ended...maybe he will say that Abacha in his magnanimity dashed us that one

Trashy sh1t.

Is that the best your brain can gather

Candyrain:
I think his balls have gone missing. Cans of worms will be opened if he dares it. Bubu haven't got the liver to do that. Those trash he was saying about prosecuting party members if they are found wanting were all WASH

They have done the investigation and recovery for him...just prosecute the people in this list and pick a whooping $140million dollars plus

Davvymavvy:
The problem of Nigeria is hydra headed and the simple solution is what we are not ready for. Hypocrisy has taken another dimension in our engagements, we see nothing wrong in an open rape of public institutions as long as the perpetrator is our brother. While your points are valid and genuine as in the case of Halliburton where a whooping $140million could be added to the covers of nation if those involved are prosecuted, [s]I have noticed your hypocritical stance on issues of national importance.[/s]

On the cancelled, Kindly point them out to me later, outside the thread...Isn't it clear that buhari is the hypocrite and liar here

Freemanan:
Is objectivity possible in your Beingness Op?

Kindly pick out the lie or bias in this write up...thanks

engineerboat:
They will soon come to tell us that Obama never said that the Only condition to released the Harlibourton Money is to bring the perpetrators to Justice. We Know now, said something today, sing another tune tomorrow.

The money is there...Jonathan before his departure concluded that of Abacha which they have promised to return...I think about $141million dollars or so...notwithstanding buhari saying Abacha did not loot Nigeria treasury...

Candyrain:
He's scared of the powers behind the scene. Saying he can't probe far past government explains it all. Buhari would rather let the $140m vanish than prosecute Obj and co. He's in a serious dilemma.

The money is there already...just prosecute those guys like we did...and pick your money...shikena

okosodo:
Na mouth dem take dey prosecute

Insulting and shouting Jonathan's name is there only achievement and sole aim in government...

As a buhari fan, what sayeth thou...is it not glaring to you that Nigeria is doomed with these change agents?
