There is nothing there to understand. There is no region in Nigeria that has been so close to the north that always control the central government like the South South. Why is the loss of Jonathan now makes you feel you have an enemy in the north. From 1979 to date the same parties control the centre and the South South. In 1979, Shagari's NPN at the centre controlled Rivers and Cross Rivers State. PDP at the centre has been controling the South South states since 1999, except Edo that went to AC (now APC) around 2008. For 16 years, you are just noticing there is a Kaduna mafia? You need some rest.

Yes, north has always being allies of the SS especially after the fall of Boro agitation and subsequent recruitment of these to fight SE civil war. Just as the article observed, there was a deep rooted propaganda to pitch SS against SE so as to whittle down strength of SE. Propaganda was so bad that even Igbo speaking towns in SS like Ikwerre etc cursed anything SE and would not identify with SE.
Jonathan ouster only awakened many to realities. Showed them that these men are not mutual allies because they used us and when we needed them, they dumped us; only our supposed "enemies" stood with us 100%. So who's the enemy really now?...

To SW, the battle will soon be clear to you all...kindly support men of integrity like Odumakin Yinka in this quest to have Nigeria restructured...

IyaIode:
Why haven't our southern president given us true federalism since we blame the north always.

Truth be told, confab didn't arrive at that conclusion but they did quasi-restructuring of the country...which most representatives of the north were against...Remember, the mandate to them including those in PDP was to protect the interest of the North not Nigeria...Coincidentally, the confab report was pro-nigeria but anti-north...So what again do you expect them to do if not to kill the report...how do you kill the report easily?...Get Jonathan out of the way...With this they restrategized and keyed into Jagaban's thirst for national influence....

Some whining.

Why can't we have new leaders in this country?
Why can't we have fiscal federalism?
Why can't this country be regionalized?
Where do you see yourself in this country tomorrow?

Whatever worth doing well started somewhere maybe as whining to some folks then too

Finally! This is a brilliant and wonderful write-up. It is concise, it strike the emotion and informative. The Spirit Will never die!!!


God Bless The Eastern Region

Thanks bro...Let it echo to the heavens that we are no more at peace here...that its either restructuring of this country is undertaken or it becomes to your tents O Isreal !!!

Usually bullsh.it, you should make Jonathan ezi ndibo of your land if you so much need him.

Jega was from anambra when he announced Jonathan winner in 2011.

I pray you see beyond your nose soonest...this is no longer about Jonathan my dear...why not read and understand this message with an open mind?...thanks

Nigeria needs some serious restructuring to allow for healthy competition between regions and people... The system has been skewed and programmed for unhealthy domination by one part. Let's go for what is right so as to allow equity, justice, healthy competition, increased progress, grassroots development etc to thrive...

Any close observer of the polity post-election would have seen more the actual reason for "get Jonathan out of the way election". From the comments of Mohammed, Shamshudeen to that of Sen. Dansadau etc and people will still come here to tell me about how Jonathan was voted out due to non-performance. Since when did we become so averse to non-performing leaders of which Jonathan doesn't fit the list. Some lords felt that Jonathan was fast making them to lose relevance hence they needed to reinvent themselves politically coupled with oil block licencing cum population census of 2016. To this a powerful propaganda machinery was needed to brainwash the smart by half majority. It's a truism that outside Jonathan, most of these men has been part of Nigeria misrule since 1978 till date. A journey through our history shows a country held hostage by its own and forced to be moving in circles. Why can't there be new leaders? Why can't we have true fiscal federalism? Why can't we regionalize this country? Why is the burden of ONE Nigeria always on the South?

Nzeogwu & co believed due to post election crisis in SW, that they can rescue ONE Nigeria, but they plunged the eastern part into paying 'debts' unending.

Ironsi believed in ONE Nigeria, and his blood was used to wash the streets.

Isaac Boro screamed and cried for same injustice but was muscled out.

Saro Wiwa came to the stage but his blood was used to entertain the oligarchs.

Ojukwu decided to challenge the anomaly engendered by barefaced rape of our sanctity to life and association but was confronted with more blood on our streets and made a fugitive in his supposed fatherland.

Yes, subsequently Easterners were subjected to the background after the gift of 20pounds as punishment for "no victor; no vanquished". Some of their people were used as baits to whittle down the genuine demands and general wellbeing of majority by giving them crumbs called political appointments. While NigerDeltans were brainwashed through series of well oiled propaganda to see the Igbos as their enemies and root cause of their problem. While the alien term SS came into being to copiously highlight the divide always.

SouthWest were made heroes of their fellow southern brothers woes; but unfortunately were eaten by same tiger they fed. Awolowo was stampeded even to death. And Abiola who had national appeal was not allowed to be. Finally, he became a story and a sentence in the past amidst laughter from the lords of Nigeria.

Obasanjo thrived with the hides and shadow of late Shehu Yar'adua(progenitor of the powerful Kaduna mafia). He is a cat with nine lives. He had his bread buttered by the gods but choose to dine with devil and became lord of demons. Blood of the innocents especially from the creeks cries around him for vengeance.

And now, came Jonathan not an Igbo but from a background feeling the pangs of pain and marginalization like Igbo. He gave so much to pacify these internal colonialists and oligarchs at the expense of developing his region but was rejected, framed as corrupt notwithstanding the reputable; "Transparency International" verdict vindicating him. He was humiliated out of office. We all know our position back in the years.

In all, Jonathan didn't just lose. We lost too. It may not be easy to see any Southerner rise to that post in the near future without some radical breakthrough. Forget
the noise and empty rhetorics of people like Rochas Okorocha and co. Boys talk; men act.

The North by the smart machinery instituted by Prof. Attahiru Jega would always determine and decide who rules Nigeria notwithstanding the voting pattern down South. Irrespective of South's discontent with government in power; unless North decide otherwise the government MUST persist.

What slavery is more than this?...Read the dailies and cry for the future because these people we term "aabookiii" ruled all my ancestry, my grandfather, my father and now myself, with the country bastardized and in shambles. When will it all end with all the sycophants, and many smart by half people down South?

Is it too much to ask if Nigeria is reduced to regions with a weak central government?

The cries and shrills of Elder Godsday Orubebe in that INEC hall echoes in my heart...

barcanista, why didn't you reply me about that thread?

themilanway:
And you will be the first to criticize him when he focus all his time and attention to probe the PDP government of the past 15yrs.Are you not a genius?

Go through my posts you will see where i come from,The Ijaw Nation should count out the Igbo's in their scheme of things.

Igbo's refused to see beyond their nose when they voted PDP.

Mr genius...invite me when you make the Guinness book of records for your wisdom and ability to beyond your nose...I don't dig people like you so I won't spend my time looking at your past records...Your place of origin isn't important to me...I can only wish that you wish you what you wish others...bye bye

PassingShot:
Yes, emphasis is on NNPC and everyone knows why. The noise generated by the NNPC scandal didn't start today. So, you cannot fault GMB for that. The focus should be on the fact that Nigerians demanded a probe of the allegation, GEJ contracted PWC for a forensic audit and the "audit" report is ready for implementation of the findings.


I do not get what you mean by Buhari acquitted Sanusi. Was Sanusi indicted by anyone or by PWC?

3)Sanusi is now part of his voice echoing NNPc but ignoring CBN...is CBN a minor agency here...The world sees CBN more than they see NNPC so CBN should be clean first....if CBN fails, Nigeria dies...if NPC fails, Nigeria is merely in coma....

4)On appeal, Jonathan can't appeal because of national security...sanusi has been made emir before any appeal can ensue....emir is sacred to Hausa/Fulani both politically, religiously and economically...We are living witness to what happened when a special adviser issued just a query to late emir bayero...

It is wicked for anyone to say Sanusi is GMB's voice. When SLS raised the alarm on NNPC unremitted money, not a single Nigerian had known if GMB will be president or not. In the case of CBN, I earlier pointed out that SLS got a High Court judgment against prosecution. The FG had a choice to appeal the judgment even before SLS became emir but it chose not to. So, whose fault is this? And I equally submitted that GMB will eventually sanitize CBN in his fight against corruption but he may not probe GEJ/FG's case against SLS because that case is already dead since FG failed to challenge the court's decision.


5)In all, we have NNPC probe report and we have CBN probe report...let buhari visit the two reports because they are all under Jonathan administration...Nothing more...
He cannot be blind to one report and pick the other...that's selective prosecution and selective justice...

Let's be sincere to ourselves, there was nothing like a probe report on CBN. The FRC is not empowered by law to probe CBN. If SLS had actually committed any crime, FG/GEJ should have used EFCC to prosecute him. Besides, GEJ/FG displayed their naivety and crude way of witch-hunting by only starting to establish any financial misdeeds against SLS after he had revealed the NNPC unremitted money. The way the show was handled betrayed their sincerity.

6)Note that sanusi stopped deeper investigation into his probe with the court injunction... let buhari do deeper investigation into NNPC and into CBN...shikena

I trust GMB to do what is required in any sector found lacking. Like I said, GEJ/FG had the chance to continue the case through appeal but never deemed it necessary.

The summary is, GMB has not started any probe nor said he will re-probe NNPC but that he will look into the probe report.

NNPC/CBN/NDDC/NPA/FIRS/Customs and many other such big agencies/corporations will at one time or the other be specially looked into by GMB's administration whether we like it or not because the incoming president, more than anyone of us knows where the main corruption killing Nigeria is taking place.
Without looking at the books of those corporations, where or how do you think the government intend to plug the leakages they've been talking of?

FEAR YE NOT FOR GMB WILL BE JUST WITH ALL. Nigeria first before anything else.

I am tired of arguing back and forth saying same thing...just don't cry when your tiger turns to eat you....bye bye

themilanway:
1)Selective probe is better no probe.It will benefit you and i if Jonathan those monies that suddenly grew wings,what's stoping him?

2)Even Barcanista once said partisan politics aside,whoever found wanton should be made to face the music,this was before he ate the forbiden fruit.That's National interest should/must come first.

3)Please some of you from the Ijaw Nation should stop thinking the South East are with you in any struggle.There is nothing like"us",if you gives wishes to break away from Nigeria,then by all means you do it alone.

The Igbos were being sentimental during the presidential election.

Because hatred forces your comprehension to be skewed, you fail to comprehend what barcanista and is still writing...He said and is insisting on no sacred cows...Probe them all and Punish them all...

Who made you a Yorubaman mouth piece of Igbo?...smh...See how sense of insecurity and complex will force you hypocrites to always go back to your vomit...

u sound vry pained...... Wish u can say all these hogwash to my face

and you will do it what actually...; D e-superman

barcanista:
The case against Sanusi is mind blowing. Yet some scumbags are hell bent on looking the other way. Jonathan should just convoke an SNC abeg..I don tire for these people

last part of your wish is impossible... No time...pele ...just pray for grace to endure while it lasts

barcanista:
Those hypocrites shouting "Why didn't Jonathan appeal" would have been the first to carry out arson against innocent SS/SEsterner in Kano, Bauchi and other places should Jonathan appeal. The same people that said people to go to court during the certificate saga, were the same people that shouted "Jonathan witchunt" when people went to court. These people care less about good governance but are more concerned with partisan bias. You and I know what would have happened in the event that any judge upturn the injunction against Emir Sanusi.

Buhari that proclaimed "Abacha a Saint" and went ahead to say that "every allegation against Abacha is baseless" has never hidden the fact that he is standing behind Sanusi anyday!

Late emir bayero case is fresh in our memories...

BTW you didn't reply me yesterday on your opinion of my corrections on that thread...I wanna go to it now...what do you think...

egbaguy:
Me,take @barcanista serious..........NEVER!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately nobody gives a damn about what you take serious...just discuss the topic or get out....But for you to come and perch on the thread of someone who you don't take serious; shows how lowly you're and how meaningless you can be...and what focus you lack...pele... go look inwards bro

themilanway:
So because GEJ's government for some strange reasons refuses to prosecute/probe Sanusi,Buhari shouldnt probe the missing $20 million?Or was there no missing money?

Who's fault is it that Sanusi wasnt probed since you claimed he was indicted?

Do you honestly think that Madam Allison is just been witch hunted?Is she clean as you want us to believe?

Why do you guys keep nuturing this fear that Jona might spend his allowance in jail?

When will you guys stop playing division and hate filled politics?Hasnt Sambo,FFK,Fayose and PEJ done enough during campaign?

Barcanista he that comes to equity..........

Unfortunately, this is NOT about any campaign but a call for justice and equity...There's a report on NNPC and CBN...if anything corruption in CBN is far more dangerous than corruption in NNPC...Probe the two again as you want fresh and deeper probe...punish all offenders...don't be selective...they are all under Jonathan administration... take it all or leave it all...stop forcing us to see that some animal are more equal than others...no Napoleon here plzzzz...selective justice may hurt and hunt those who are laughing now and urging him on due to partisan reasons...Tiger trainers most times end up in tiger's belly...be warned...

shaqhead:
And what are u?

Your nightmare

barcanista:
When has it become the business of a Judge to determine a case that is "witch-hunt" or criminal even without hearing the suit? That was how another Judge in Lagos granted the prayers of Fashola in 2010 seeking to stop the probe against him by the Lagos State House of Assembly when the "True Face of Lagos" sent petition. The Judge saidd that "the group was faceless" as if we are talking about corruption of face/faceless.

Don't mind all these sycophants being smart by half... Just keep dropping it for them... way that childish chemali abi chemical wey dey insult me

PassingShot:
Good. But where did you get the erroneous impression that GMB's fight against corruption will be selective?
The NNPC probe may actually indict more Northerners than Southerners.

Like GMB said, he doesn't intend to start probing all past cases of corruption but what has been probed and which reports are available, he will work to implement recommendations of such reports. If anyone will oppose this, the question should be why were those investigations launched then?

With the way the corruption war will be fought, I expect that many Hausas, Igbos, Yorubas, Ijaws and other nationalities will be affected. I do not mind if it consumes my tribesmen provided they've been properly tried.

Now to the CBN case, there was a High Court judgement to stop the prosecution. Why did FG fail to appeal the judgment if it was not satisfied? Why must we now want to blackmail GMB with that case since it is closed, according to our legal procedures?

Please leave sentiment aside and let's see how the elected president prosecute the war against corruption and institutionalized stealing.

Fine...let's go this way...

1)Emphasis by buhari has been only on NNPC...so it means he's not interested in others...

2)Buhari by his own words has acquitted sanusi just like he did for abacha...so do I need any other evidence to see where he's going?...

3)Sanusi is now part of his voice echoing NNPc but ignoring CBN...is CBN a minor agency here...The world sees CBN more than they see NNPC so CBN should be clean first....if CBN fails, Nigeria dies...if NPC fails, Nigeria is merely in coma....

4)On appeal, Jonathan can't appeal because of national security...sanusi has been made emir before any appeal can ensue....emir is sacred to Hausa/Fulani both politically, religiously and economically...We are living witness to what happened when a special adviser issued just a query to late emir bayero...

Don't you have your own words too?

chemali:
The FRCN lacks statutory powers to carry out any investigation! It's the same way they went ahead to levy Eko Hotel before they were taken to court. If GEJ had evidence of financial impropriety against Sanusi, why didn't he use EFCC? I'm struggling hard not to call you and the OP idiots.

The Financial Reporting Council (FRC) of Nigeria is a federal government agency established by the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria Act, No. 6, 2011. It is a federal government Parastatal under the supervision of the Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment.

The FRC is responsible for, among other things, developing and publishing accounting and financial reporting standards to be observed in the preparation of financial statements of public entities in Nigeria; and for related matters.



The Council’s main objects, as defined in the FRC Act, are to:

protect investors and other stakeholders interest
give guidance on issues relating to financial reporting and corporate governance to professional, institutional and regulatory bodies in Nigeria
ensure good corporate governance practices in the public and private sectors of the Nigerian economy
ensure accuracy and reliability of financial reports and corporate disclosures, pursuant to the various laws and regulations currently in existence in Nigeria
harmonise activities of relevant professional and regulatory bodies as relating to corporate governance and financial reporting.
promote the highest standards among auditors and other professionals engaged in the financial reporting process.
enhance the credibility of financial reporting; and
improve the quality of accountancy and audit services, actuarial, valuation and corporate governance standards.

Let me show you how you're the bigger foooool and idioooot here...

Is efcc not a federal agency too?...ollodo

I sought to see where all you were listing as their duties will state that they have no legal backing to do what they are doing...mpama like u...

Did the court injunction say that frcn didn't have legal backing rather they said its witch hunt...Now why won't subsequent probe be seen as witch hunt too...onuku

That you rushed to court to stop probe. does it make you innocent?... what are you hiding?...what don't you want us to see and hear?...ewu

Why has sanusi being submitting his annual reports to frcn if you think they have no legal backing...anumanu

If you have paid attention to some of my posts on these boards, you would find several that highlight some of Sanusi's failings.
Blind solidarity is not my thing, so I never shriek from exposing unseemly conduct where this can be proved.

@OP on the other hand is someone who does not understand that principles are indivisible - my point
You cannot divide your principles by half or a quarter, on the basis of some spurious logic - "Superior information modifies ones conviction and shape position".

Pray tell what superior information he has presented here, which has not been previously debated on these same pages...

Demdem:
Ruling in a fundamental rights enforcement suit filed by Sanusi against his planned probe by FRCN, Justice John Tsoho said the FRCN’s action was in bad faith, besides being an abuse of executive power.

“Sanusi submitting himself to the probe panel by FRCN over allegation of financial recklessness will be like a cockroach finding itsself in the midst of fowls,” he said.

I just laugh at the partisanship of most of us which beclouds sense of reasoning...NNPC would be probed too and people would be indicted but be sure that such court injunctions would arise...Nothing would happen...Nobody gets punished...everybody goes home to enjoy their loot...Believe me, since this is what citizens desire, see how these guys will keep procuring the services of smart and intelligent lawyers....Nigerians are simply smart by half.....What makes you think buhari probe isn't about same reason?...lawyers will use this case as exhibit in court to prosecute their case against government...yes, they would tell same stories of witchhunt by government and court will grant their plea...let's watch how it plays out....this is democracy not military...

Demdem:
Did Jonah-daft appeal? if yes to what degree?
If No why? That is the crux

How can he appeal when sanusi has been appointed emir?...National security is more important plz...remember the case of special assistant abi adviser that issued mere query to late emir...we know what happened and how it all ended...plz let's be mindful of how far we push this partisanship....this tiger may end up eating its owner soon...

In a straight forward answer please:
Are you saying that it is wrong for GMB to want to follow through on the PWC report (and similar ones) which was commissioned by GEJ himself?

Not at all bro...I want him to probe NNPC and all her subsidiaries as well as force PIB passage as this will reduce legal leap holes and avenues of leakage and looting...

I also want him to not single out NNPC because more looting is on through CBN of which Sanusi stopped its investigation... How can CBN alone report payment of over 38billion to printing and minting company while the general turnover of the company from business with all their clients including CBN is about 29billion...And we are not bordered...Is shagari/ekwueme saga about to start again?... who knows who's next?...maybe you who's encouraging it and laughing today....selective justice should be fought...all animals must be equal...no Napoleon here plzzzz
