taharqa: SR is again been Sillly and mischievous. The Chief Judge of any state (Or, any Head of Court for that mata) CANNOT administratively withdraw a case. Only d Prosecuting Party can do that. The Chief Judge may simply be reassigning d cases, maybe to even fasten up d cases that hv been crawling in courts for upwards of 10 yrs in sm cases......

The biggest Tinubu in Nigeria is also the leader of the second largest party in Nigeria.
As long as that frog eyed kleptomaniac is allowed to go about his business, I think justice demands his fellow thieves be granted reprieve also.

[b] This is an aberration, how can their cases be withdrawen, Most corrupt ex governors like the following should be locked up in prison and never allowed to occupy any public office in the federal republic of Nigeria, but wat do we see, tomorrow they are either refered to as an elder states man, Chief, Sir, Hon. party leader, Asiwaju, Senator etc, it is shame the manner @ which corruption has taking over the country @ large,

James Ibori : He own a refinery in far away South-Africa, own houses in London, Us, Dubai etc, 2morrow he will wanna be a minister.

Bola Ahmed Tinubu: He is claiming to be a leader of Acn/Apc, sponsoring politicians, after stealing the whole of Lagos dry, own Oando, own houses all over Lagos and banks accounts in Us, UK, Dubai etc, I learnt he wants to be a vice president go one day.

Bukola Saraki: A senator of the federal rep. of Nigeria, and he is still wanted by the Efcc.

Lucky Igbinedon: The equally own refinery in morocco linking Spain, after stealing the whole of Edo States money dry, using his father's influence, to cover up, tomorrow he will bance back to occupy one of the public offices.

Peter Odili: The most silient corrupt governor frm the south south, during the days of Obj, and he is equally using the influence of his wife as a judge, owns air line like Arik-air. others coming soon . Alhaji Muazu, ex -Governor Kalu

L.M Ayedun..:
The newly-appointed Chief Judge of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Justice Ibrahim Bukar, today in Abuja withdrew the case files of former Nigerian governors undergoing trial for corruption.

Justice Bukar requested all judges in the FCT to return the case files of several of the governors, some of whom are reportedly being considered for ministerial appointments by President Goodluck Jonathan.

A source at the FCT High Court said the new chief judge did not state why the case files were being withdrawn, but it is being suspected that he plans to do away with the cases.  Some of the cases were filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) since 2007.

Since coming to power in 2010, President Goodluck Jonathan has boosted and encouraged corruption in several ways, including through declaring he would not publicly declare his assets; refusing to push actively for action against corrupt officials, especially within his government; and pardoning a corrupt former governor, DSP Alaimeiyeseigha.

Several officials at the EFCC have also confided in SaharaReporters that Mr. Jonathan has directly interfered in their work and stopped several high profile investigations on corruption by asking the EFCC chairman to not investigate some of the most corrupt public officials in his administration.

A source at the EFCC noted that the case of former Governor Jolly Nyame had reached an advanced stage, with nine witnesses already called, lamenting that the case file is among those withdrawn today.

In recent months, President Jonathan has repeatedly declared corruption in Nigeria to be “exaggerated.”
Only last week, it emerged that his Minister of Aviation, Stella Oduah, compelled a struggling agency in the Ministry to purchase two overpriced luxury motor vehicles for her use at an incredible cost of N225million.  The public uproar that has followed the story has been ignored by Mr. Jonathan.
