Perhaps, I should repeat with addendum.I can only pray that God gives you more understanding spirit:

The PMB government never said that A swap deal is a fraudulent deal,but that, the swap deal was being operated fraudulently.

Now, does a fraudulently operated swap deal implies that a swap deal is a fraudulent deal?

The same nonsensical noise was made during the oil subsidy saga. Whereas,the fact that the oil subsidy was condemned and called a scam,for being operated fraudulently,does not make Oil Subsidy as a policy,a scam and undesirable,if well executed by another
government.

However this is not to say that the present government will also get it right!

But of course ,the fact that people(fraudulent or not) fail in business,for instance, should not deter others from trying...

Again,only those with low intellect will Still not understand

So plz my questions remains...

1)How did they OPERATE it fraudulently in the past?

2)What improvements or adjustment was made now to forestall a repeat?

I believe those with high IQ can now understand a simple question and answer accordingly...

GoodGovernance:
Another one of them spotted.

English 101 (or is it Verbal Aptitude 101?):

Oga Prof... Buhari and APC demonized the scheme...it was the first thing they cancelled on assumption of office hence NNPC became sole importer... I challenge you again to DROP a SINGLE change in this scheme to show that it has been upgraded so as NOT to be fraudulent again? Name a single innovation they did in it aside repeating the lies and empty rhetorics they feed "professors" like you daily

CACAWA:
FFK is such a dumb person.

What has FFK or his traitor Father done for the ibos compared to what Buhari has.

He's only being childish..Typical of spoon fed baby adults without home training

Is FFK president? was his father one? so on what basis are they do embark on developmental projects in Igbo land as compared to Buhari?

GoodGovernance:
Abuse people,despite your glaring ignorance and lack of knowledge? Then you must be an id..t!

What is wrong in shouting corruption?

A policy can be condemned for being operated in a corrupt environment,whilst the same policy could still be adopted in a transparent and corrupt free environment.

Oga teach us abeg ...

Plz what changed in this policy now aside replacing PDP guys with APC sponsors? If Buhari and supporters said the oil swap initiative was fraudulent, why reinvent it?

Hope Seunmsg omenka Ngeneukwenu sarrki etc find a way to explain this away too

DaniDani:
This sounds plausible but a deeper study makes it suspicious of shortchanging Nigeria.

We should allow more individuals to build and own private refineries in Nigeria like Dangote is doing than these deals that have never brought us any success in the oil industry.

Didn't Buhari and Tinubu convince you all that this initiative by Jonathan was fraudulent and it was an avenue for Diezani to loot Nigeria blind...so what changed now? How did it suddenly become a plausible idea?

ADAMUdaCOWBOY:
https://elombah.com/index.php/reports/460-vice-president-osibanjo-leaves-for-abidjan
Read the content of this link. The reason for the cancellation was clearly stated. It was also added that "The government may not have completely dumped the idea of swaps but the aim is to re-evaluate the whole contracts terminated to extract some favourable terms," the source told Reuters. But just just like the saying goes, You only see what your eyes want to see. Anything that discredits Buhari makes your day. Enjoy.

Oga, can you plz show us ONE single change made in this policy aside removing perceived PDP or Jonathan appointees for their own people

In the South-South

ok...nice dau

The reason Lagos is as developed as it is, to the envy of everybody, is every simple. During the Civil War, the divide-and-rule game played by the Federal Government led to Igbos being eviscerated in Port Harcourt
(Rivers State), which is part of Igboland. Igbos then turned to Lagos and the people of Lagos were welcoming
of the Igbo people, and that is why Lagos is the way it is today as a strong centre of commerce in the world

Don't be silly
Pat Utomi is from Delta state, i don't even believe he speaks for Anioma people sef

Really? So Where's SouthSouth tribe?

nengibo:
You want to carry ghana must go bag again, Pat Utomi is a politician and is also not from Rivers state so he doesn't have any say.

Isn't he from the SouthSouth tribe again? Keep denying and making silly conjectures...even Buhari doesn't know the tribe of his appointees too? No matter, how you twist it, TRUTH always wins

Fx55:
They'll soon be here. Thank God Pat Utomi, a man from the alien tribe called 'South-South' has confirmed it with his mouth

Truth will keep shaming all liars

globe16:
whynotthelies when will you get tired of being a peter obi sycophant? Did peter obi lie or not (that he owned one wrist watch for 17 years?) like his has always done. Peter obi is irrelevant in Anambras state and nobody is afraid of him. Tell me one prominent figure in Anambra that still associates with the criminal. FAct is obi is jealous and deeply pained that obiano has outperformed him in less than 4 years thats why he goes about criticizing all obiano has done. If you have access to obi, advise him to have shame for once and stop embarrassing himself

Plz list Obiano's project for us to see... probably we are not from Anambra again...or he's packing his projects in governor's lodge to use as surprise package for Anambra indigenes...

globe16:
chai.. lmaooo go and hide your face in shame whynotthelies

Peter obi a simple man that lives in a 250 million osbourne towers apartment that he sneaks into at night after deceiving idiots and empty brain fools. A simple man that built the biggest shopping mall in Abuja as governor, with state funds.

And I will never stop exposing the fraud called peter obi, let him keep fooling himself. You and africonji will soon have heart attack over this my matter

SweetJoystick ...See what I was telling you...Op has brought out another of his moniker...the third moniker is on the way...This same guy has BOASTED so many times how he's writing and has written so many letters to EFCC and some purportedly written by Obiano too on Peter Obi and how he would be picked up & jailed...Ask him why hasn't Peter Obi been questioned more than a 18months after his boast? Where are those your blog links on EFCC arresting abi searching Obi notwithstanding being in opposition

Anambra state gubernatorial election has seen Obiano so far campaigning against the SHADOWS of Obi Except the church intervenes, he's gone for good...There's no SINGLE project he's undertaking today that doesn't have Peter Obi's signature even 4 years after leaving office The more his paid hirelings(mostly unintelligent little minds like Op) keep mudslinging Obi, the more the masses hate him and the more inroad the other political parties are making including and surprisingly APC too ...Though, I pray he wins but tell yourself the truth even when Peter Obi has NOT started campaigns...the acronym; "CORRECTION 2017" has gained momentum...Pray the church gets Peter Obi to soft-pedal for Obiano, otherwise

SweetJoystick:
lol so OP na paid agent?

I have NO EVIDENCE...but there's no other justification for a man who took out his time to register SO MANY monikers just to spread LIES and HATE against Obi...He NEVER misses to cast aspersion on him always...Dig out any Obi related thread to see him insulting the man(Peter Obi) while praising his predecessor(Ngige) & his successor(Obiano) to high heavens...Can anybody compare what Obi did in Anambra state to what these others achieved? No...Peter Obi is in a class of his own...So why the hatred? MONEY !!!

SweetJoystick:
AMEN! you win on the property. lol you funny oh! The person who blew the whistle that made you know he has a flat in the building, is he/she know? I hope you know people act as fronts for these politicians, the Festac property or another property might not be in his name, if none is in his name, he can boldly come out to lay claim of only the property in Onitsha. ill give you an instance, Allison ex miister has a private jet, its being held in another persons name, this is someone i know. Now if there are allegations or search is conducted to verify if she has a private jet will she be found wanting? hell no! My stance still remains, he isn't what he claims to be.

Yea...MOST politicians are DUBIOUS beings...but I hope to be like Peter Obi should I stop playing politics in my laptop alone. His politics of IDEAS is UNIQUE and can SAVE any society including Nigeria...but daredevil thieves and looters will spare NOTHING to taint him because he renders them HOPELESS and their ways USELESS...I am not totally in support of Obiano in Anambra state because in trying to run away from the shadows of Peter Obi and make his own mark in Anambra state politics, he recruited ALL the thieves, blackmailers, propagandists, and looters including Op of this thread who Peter Obi chased away in order to run a HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL government in Anambra state...Ask any politician or sincere Anambra guy how his reign was and why he's HIGHLY reverred unlike other politicians including Obiano...

SweetJoystick:
He said he doesn't stay there. that is wastage, why pay such an amount for rent/lease (1 year) and not stay there? even if a friend or relative occupies such it makes a whole lot of sense. lol See you trying to justify the Ikoyi flat. How often does he stay or come to Lagos? If you multiply the number of days he stays in Lagos by the cost of an executive suite $2435 (the most expensive from my search), it will give you the sum of N346,622,250 @ N390 for 365 days in a year which he obviously does not stay in Lagos for that period of time. Lets assume he is in Lagos for half a year, cost of an executive suite will be N172,836,300. I am sure you will agree with me its cheaper than N250m. |That is N78m gap assuming he stays half a year in Lagos which i strongly doubt. Considering he is prudent as you claim or made to believe i am sure he wont go for the most expensive suite.
I am not saying he is not a successful businessman who cant afford whatever he desires or does not have a sense of prudency. My assertion is that those claims are lies, directly from hell!

IGNORANCE is your issue...Why not check and read to see that it is NOT ANNUAL payment? Can't you read that the apartment has been SOLD to the OCCUPIERS according to Adamu Muazu(landlord) for 250m per flat? Can't you read where his spokesman(Valentine) said he BOUGHT the place? Can't you read where he said HIS WIFE & CHILDREN stay there? So how can you believe he has a property in festac because a faceless member said so but won't believe him when he CHALLENGED authorities to seize any such property? If he didn't steal/waste Anambra state BILLIONS which weren't his SWEAT, how can he waste his own sweat? Does it make sense to you? I strive to be a politician in the mold of Peter Obi...he's mentor bro...He's not a typical Nigerian politician...He plays POLITICS OF IDEAS not Nigeria's POLITICS OF BLACKMAIL & INTIMIDATION...!!! God bless us all bro...

SweetJoystick:
Smh abeg reason well before you talk rubbish. I didn't write anything concerning his wealth or if he was successful as a businessman or not. No change topic.
If he isn't materialistic as you claim, what does he need such apartment for? How often does he come to Lagos? Wouldn't it be cheaper if he stays in an hotel? Even if he stays in a luxurious hotel for a year, the bill won't amount to the rent for the flat in Ikoyi. I'm sure if you read this quote below, you will realise he is not only materialistic but a phony person.

I don't need to read what an anonymous member here wrote to know Peter Obi...and to see how biased you are...you believed the guy but refused to believe me even when you had NOTHING to substantiate his or disprove mine...why? ...Maybe you visit Anambra state by weekend and pay a visit to his compound... probably you will begin to understand and believe him... ONLY greedy and heartless politicians from Anambra state stand against him otherwise EVERY sincere human there LOVE him for his PRUDENCE and SINCERITY!!!

If you may know, majority of his business in Nigeria is in Lagos...do you need to know what he needs the house for again? And the flat is SOLD or LEASED and NEVER on annual rent as dubiously propounded here...

How much is an executive suite in Ikoyi or VI etc? So how's it cheaper than such apartment? We have SEEN, READ and EXPERIENCED so many stuff about him to understand that he's more than a mentor to any sensible youth...

Finally, he CHALLENGED Buhari and co to CONFISCATE any property BELONGING to him outside the one in Onitsha...So how else can such a billionaire businessman and politician prove his PRUDENCE and NON-MATERIALISTIC nature?

Abagworo:
Guy nobody will use $600k as rent and then claim financial prudence. The worst is that he now claims to have paid and left it unoccupied.

I don't usually enjoy responding to your type...Those flats are SOLD or leased not rented...And Peter Obi LIVED FINANCIAL PRUDENCE BEFORE, DURING and AFTER government House...He stays in that flat WHENEVER he's in Lagos just as Valentine Obienyem confirmed too...But he lives in Onitsha... EVERYBODY cannot be your extravagant and AVARICIOUS Rochas

SalamRushdie:
What do you have to say now bro

Nawa u... Sometimes, I lack words to explain certain events... I believe Peter Obi than this guy (Op) who has used NUMEROUS monikers here to celebrate hatred against Peter Obi for reasons best known to him...Ask anybody close to power in Anambra state or who lives there about the SIMPLICITY of Obi and his averse nature to ostentatious living...Come and see his house in his villa and all these will add up to you...I choose to believe that he LITERALLY has a watch...He may have gotten more as gifts from people which he may wear sparingly but still clings to that SOLE watch he purchased himself... meaning he has ONE watch still ...Call me anything, but I choose to play politics of ideas and live as this man; Peter Obi...He's more than a mentor to me He's not a typical Nigerian politician

SweetJoystick:
You are the one who lacks understanding. ...... the reference of i once had no shoes story doesn't mean he is claiming to be poor, but to attract public affection.......he isn't materialistic yet he spends millions on rent for an apartment. You see, the lines are already being sold to people like you.

Is he materialistic? No...how do I know? His government was a glaring evidence to all...

Is he rich?...Yes...how do I know? His investment and companies were already making waves long before he became governor especially in Lagos....

He is discussing his life here...which every SINCERE Anambra man can attest to...

So stop your delusion...you won't even know when you are being deceived or the contrary...that's why you guys follow Buhari around sheepishly

SweetJoystick:
Time will tell....this na another story of i once had no shoes. Tell your lies to your kinsmen jare..... yet you can rent an apartment running into millions, why don't you get a cheaper accommodation as you don't stay in Lagos and the purpose of a house is to provide roof over your head.....dey deceive yourself Igbo man


Salient points about shoes and wrist watch by the way

Did he tell you that he's poor? He simply saying he isn't materialistic!!! Learn to read with understanding

SalamRushdie:
But he bought a 3 bedroom apartment in Osborne for 250m naira

Even you? smh ...He just spoke here like an economist or investment conscious man... explaining how and what that Osborne fund can do...And then explained his simplicity and intolerance for ostentatious living...

Continue the ridicule all same!!!

mu2sa2:
This guy is playing smart. Ok mr clean, you have had the same wristwatch for 17 years, but you have the money to buy/rent such an expensive flat and leave it empty! Even the wristwatch you are touting, how much did you pay for it? Anyway, good luck as you kick start your campaign ahead of 2019.

Did he tell you that he's poor? He simply saying he isn't materialistic!!! Learn to read with understanding

adem30:
But you can afford to pay over N200m per annum in a rented apartment in Ikoyi.

Hypocrite

Did he tell you that he's poor? He simply saying he isn't materialistic!!! Learn to read with understanding

lovelygurl:
I will not repeat myself again

1) Anybody that will bring the Bible up when topics like this are being discussed, should rather make sure he doesn't sin at all, so he'll make heaven. No need to judge, that's God's job

2) Anybody that brings up traditions into this, should be ready to want to live before civilisation and accept EVERYTHING that comes with those traditions

3) Anybody who whines about how life was so much better in the past should go and join those from the past in their graves

If a guy refuses to marry Who the f cares. Some ladies also do not want to marry. Marriage is NOT a must

Who is forcing you to pay bride price. All this ridiculous whinings are tiring. Must you pay bride price? Hell no!

Indeed, you are smart by half...good morning!!!

Handsomecole:
Mr. Error pointer don't try to divert, the English Error aspect is not my major point in my comment, it's just additional and not the major I stressed on.

Really? Meaning you don't even understand what you wrote So much for a soul that wants to demean others as illiterates who can't write correct sentences yet can't string one together himself ...smh

lovelygurl:
They have arrived. The saints that are definitely going to heaven

It's when topics like this are being discussed about that they start shouting Bible

Hypocrites

She might even be an atheist because in her comments she said apart from the Bible which the WHITE MAN brought to us

Nawa to some of you sef...

Yea...aside the Bible per chance she isn't a Christian...Isn't she Igbo from her name? is she she Nigerian? isn't she African? Isn't the position of all these traditions in consonance with the Bible? All these babes with complex and bossy attitudes...Reason some guys are afraid of marriage ... because you may not have known all about the lady you're bringing into your home...

Why not start a campaign for bride price to stop and maybe ladies can marry men or anybody can marry anybody...why Not seek for abolition of ministry of women affairs?...that way, your fight for equality will make sense!!!

madridguy:
The master of corruption his here again.

If we were to take your assertion here as a fact, how much has been traced to him? Since, he challenged all to make public any foreign account or assets belonging to him, how many have you guys made public? If ALL instrument that reduced corruption in Nigeria from cashless policy to BVN to IPPIS to digitalization of most NPA payments, to effectively ending fertilizer scam were courtesy of him...don't you think that you are messing yourself up? or maybe hatred or bigotry is eating you up? or what exactly? What made him master of corruption? How's Obj or even Buhari better than him especially in corruption scandals?

JohnXcel:
Thank you...

No sane society needs your type...!!!

let this people get their Biafra and experience world war III


them never get their Biafra na fight and argument everyday. is it not funny they can't unite to form one voice. ohaneze, ipob....soon u will see another group

that's why I labelled them as clowns

Does Afenifere &, Afenifere Renowned mean unity? Oba Lagos and Ife king crisis mean unity? Ifemodekeke crisis mean unity? don't you think you are the clown?
