People shouldn't forget that Nigeria is under occupation by former military men and their surrogates. The corrupt cabals are former Military Officers and their front men. They have laid insurmountable forces to cause any administration to dance to their tune or get dethroned. GEJ a civilian President has dared the powers that be and we have failed to see the handwriting on the wall. 1 Like |

Sincere 9gerian: It is only sensible not to add the battle of former head of states (OBJ, IBB,etc) to the plate now. The current president already has his plate FULL, more than any president before him. The president is battling Boko haram, kidnapping, crude oil theft, militancy in Niger Delta, bad roads, unstable power, poor rail network, unemployment, poor health facilities, poor education, almajiris in the north, poverty, politics of re-election in 2015, influence of social media, etc. The plate is FULL already. You've missed the boat on this one by a mile. Success at the 2015 elections you mentioned will remain a mirage for as long as Jonathan continues to exist in a state of denial about the level of corruption associated with his administration. If you think Obasanjo's riposte was only intended for local consumption, you are also seriously mistaken. Tragic as it sounds, what you have here is a former president whose own administration did not exactly excel in the area of transparency announcing to the world that: "while he might have been corrupt, the current one is infinitely more corrupt". The gauntlet has been thrown and now is the time for Jonathan to rise to the challenge. 9 Likes |

eGuerrilla:Whatever the attraction maybe, my position on this matter is that it will be unwise for the current govt to begin probe of former head of states now. The govt does not need that distraction now. Those who are clamouring for the govt to take on former presidents would before the end of today have mentioned atleast ten OTHER pressing problems they want the govt to tackle. Interestingly, those clamouring for the govt to take on former presidents are the same IDs notorious for their PATHOLOGICAL HATRED for the president. These are the same IDs that abuse, insult, curse and call the president all sort of names. The fact that someones KNOWN ENEMIES are urging the person to go on battle should make the person jettison that battle atleast for that moment. For me, the govt should remain FOCUSED on its ongoing reforms and programmes. This is my stand. 2 Likes |

In the coming days we expect the probe to start on the pages of newspapers with Okupe leading the GEJ team and Fani Kayode leading the OBJ team. All the GEJ bootlickers here should please advise their principal that he should caution his overactive attack dogs not to start this engagement. GEJ has far more to lose than OBJ. They both may be corrupt but even USA had to doff her hat for GEJ. GEJ wey no fit handle common subsidy thieves na OBJ he wan engage. Heeeeeee ehn. 1 Like |

If GEJ decides to probe him, I am 100% sure there will be reason for OBJ to go back to prison. But I trust GEJ to dismiss an old man's folly and wrestle all the ills that OBJ stockpiled. Dilapidated Airports, renovated and more constructed. The Power Sector Epilepsy with billions finding its way into the accounts on OBJ's surrogates both home and abroad. Even the Otta Farm he is living is a property of the Feds via the Defunct River Basin Authority. OBJ was just a thug in Government, pursuing Mike Adenuga out of the country and also Pocketing his 250m Naira and chasing his opponents up and down. OBJ went ahead to impose a sick Yaradua (RIP) on Nigerians because he knew he will be too sick to out-perform him in office, so he, OBJ can shine for ever. Now that GEJ has out-perfome in just 2yrs, OBJ has gone crazy acting like a child dancing to the drum beats of the masquerade. OBJ needs classroom lessons from IBB, Gowon, Abdulsalam etc on how to shut-the-hell up! GEJ has done in 2yrs, what OBJ could not do in 8yrs, this is indisputable. That talkative of a woman needs to be probed, and she has to go to prison for abuse of the tenets of Freedom of Speech. Freedom has limitation and repercussion, its NOT Liberty. If she is clean, she should not be afraid of ICPC, and OBJ should not freak-out, cos the ICPC is indirectly against him, She has to answer to Nigerians and for OBJ. I love OBJ, but I hate is bullish & f00lish loquaciousness. 2 Likes |

When i saw this news on NL,i thought for a while;Could this be real? Obj Challenging GEJ to probe him despite all his corrupt deeds! Rhetorically i asked myself;Could this man be pure and yet after 8years left Nigeria in a sorry state? Immediately i came to a conclusion that this evil incarnate of a man must have a hidden mission but unfortunately for him this attempt is a failed one. But why the distraction? Seeing d achievement and potentials of this administration, he felt the only way to bring a dent/stop to this TRANSFORMATION is by creating a distraction to it. He is ashamed of himself seeing that the long awaited,desired and required transformation he couldn't offer in his 8 wasted years is within reach. He is suffering from Guilty Cönscience. 1 Like |

This OBJ na fooolish man. When they told him to probe IBB, wetin him talk, him say him no get time to probe past governments. No him dey yearn roforofo say make GEJ probe am. Nonsense man in flowing agbada. [b]"It agitates my mind when I read or hear of former heads of state or presidents claiming that they are more positioned to fight corruption than any other one, particularly the present administration. It angers one therefore to hear or read Obasanjo's claim as to how to curb corruption in Nigeria when in fact he is the one who perpetuated and legalized corruption in Nigeria. "For instance, he was the brain behind the formation of Transcorp Company for which he bought over two million shares while in office as president and Transcorp Hilton, the premier hotel in Nigeria is partly owned by Obasanjo. The same Transcorp company bidded for power facilities being privatized, after Obasanjo had spent over 15 million dollars on the same power facilities as exposed by the Elumelu Committee of the House of Representatives. "Secondly, he forced Nigerian businessmen and bankers to donate to his presidential library in Ota. Was he out of office when the Bell University was founded? He should tell Nigerians how much he made from Ota Farms as one of his cronies , Fani Kayode, had once claimed that he was making N30 million daily. Why has he not announce how much he is making now? One will also like to know the details of Ota Farms' transaction with Delta State Government, for which he has received over N3billion.[/b] 2 Likes |

I Can't Be Blackmailed to Probe IBB - Obasanjo (This Day)-- President Olusegun Obasanjo yesterday cautioned persons clamouring for a probe of former military President, Ibrahim Babangida, not to blackmail or "stampede" him into conducting "a blind probe." In a reaction to statements credited to former Anglican Bishop of Akure Diocese, Rev. Bolanle Gbonigi, that Babangida must be probed, Obasanjo said his government does not recognise any "sacred cow" or believes any Nigerian is "untouchable," on the issue of corruption. Obasanjo maintained that he owed nobody any obligation, which could prevent him from doing the right thing. "This administration does not just go into a blind probe. In the course of the day-to-day running of government, any unearthed issue or any matter that comes to government's attention will be looked into," the President said. On the allegations that the former President funded Obasanjo's electoral victory, he declared: "It was God through the votes of Nigerians who put me in office, and not any individual. No individual or collective misbehaviour or misdeed will be condoned for claimed or alleged contribution to my electoral success." In a statement on Thursday in Abuja, Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity Tunji Oseni, advised those with concrete evidence concerning any past or serving public office holder to come forward with such information which would be pursued to its logical conclusion. Obasanjo, the presidential spokesman added, "has implo-red people with relevant information on corrupt government officials be brought before the Justice Mustapha Akanbi-led Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission." "Any matter outside the commission's jurisdiction, should be passed to the appropriate judicial authority for necessary action, all law enforcement agencies under the executive are working collaboratively to fight corruption in the land." The function of the commission is to receive and investigate any report of the conspiracy to commit, attempt to commit or the commission of such and, in appropriate cases, to prosecute the offenders. President Obasanjo had sometime last year said that whoever has any proof of corrupt enrichment against Baban-gida should come forward and see whether or not the former military president would not be prosecuted. Apparently reacting to insinuations that he was either afraid or unduly protecting Baban-gida, Obasanjo maintained that as the president, he could not encourage prosecution without proof of evidence.

"Wisdom profits in all". The president is not foolish to fall in the trap Obasanjo is setting. As sincereniberian said, there are much important issues that need urgent and future attention than acting retrospectively. At the right time our past leaders will face the law but now seem to be a wrong time to enter into such a battle considering the fragility and sentiments in our land. 1 Like |
