taharqa: lol... Lagos is such a system, right?? A state that engage a Concessionaire to construct a 49km Road with about #50billion but wud end up spending bw #170bn- #180bn in constructing same in a Concession agreement that is front in Utmost Secrecy... Stop bn a CLOWN

Is Lagos the only state in Nigeria? Your hatred is not helping your reasoning.

[size=63pt]fresh air of corruption[/size]

Just Privatise the Public Sector.

Things are going from bad to worse, there is hardly and ministry of govt parastatals that is not having one issue of corruption or another, people are not doing the work they are vested with again, no body is serving this country out of being patrotic.

My pains is that even if these people are arrested, the judiciary will not help matter, the judiciary are as corrupt as every arm of the government , giving injuction and restraining orders against theives and arm robber running our polity, they keep on adjourning cases of corruption to an endless date.

What happened to corruption brought against people like


Iyabo Obasanjo and the then minister of health?

Bukola Saraki

Peter odili

Rasheed Ladoja

Gbenga Daniel

Orji Kalu

Jolly Nyame

Igbenedion

Bankole

Etteh

Oyinlola

chimaroke Nnamani

Ohakim

among others

The pensioners are walloping in poverty..
God will not grant those thieves peace n their entire generation IJN..

And Pension Fund Administrators are cheating Nigerians:

iphy42:


The easiest way to recognize sycophants is that they result to name calling when boxed to a corner.

Show us proof that GEJ uncovered the rot in the system... Or I forgot, Maina his pension taskforce head that stole billions of the pension fund was appointed by Ibb and Abacha

Who is this DONKEY talking to?? Is it yr father that is exposing these Thieves? So you didn't know that ALL of those former Pension thieves did most the stealing b4 GEJ became President (though, not sure of these new ones) and that it was cos of d President's Task Force and Okonjo-Iweala's Audit of d Civil Service almost immediately she returned in an attempt to reduce Recurrent Expenditure/Overheads (the same process that hv discovered thousands of Ghost workers and saved d nation more than #100bn, and which d new IPPIS is an extension) made ALL d Pension theft discoveries, and that it was d Govt solely (without any prompting by any person) who took them to court and prosecuting them?? Even this new discoveries as inferred from this article was entirely made by d Govt (tru d Task force again) and it is the Govt that arrested them and is now prepping to prosecute them. What is diff is that YOU are just now hearing about it afta d work hv bn talking, and as a typical Nigerian, talking . Can that brain of yrs undastad this??

It is not only politicians that are holding this country to ransom the Civil service are the worst and most corrupt they are the reason this nation is still like this. From ghost workers to inflated contracts and now to pension fraud.

Senator Cruz was right after all. Nigerians and scam....

wellmax:

Is Lagos the only state in Nigeria? Your hatred is not helping your reasoning.

My attention is presently focused on Lagos State for now. Anything??

This is an appreciable percentage from ASUU request. And the goats are telling us the country is broke. How would it not broke. Only God knows how much President himself is embezzling everyday if an ordinary civil servant could have acess to 35b naira! Nigeria is lost.

Donmams: Men! Buhari is going to have a hard time finding enough jail cells to put all of these gov't thieves in 2015!

....and who will vote him?
perhaps that will happen in arewa republic.
@ topic;
dis shows d level of heartlessness of some !diots dat find their ways to d corridor of power.
Alhaji Bukar Goni and his likes should be tried and jailed immediately b4 they dent Gej's good reputaion.

They will probably get a bail of 250k or 7months in jail one thing is certain gej lacks d courage n will to fight corruption squarely n aggressively in this country n d logic behind this assertion is simple BC he's a product of corruption himself he who tlks abt equity shld come with clean hands.

venorite: They should fu*king divide this messed up country. When you start stealing from the old, you are heartless.. Every politician deserves to die either through plane crash or boko haram God save your people. 35billion,damn

These are NOT even Politicians this time around. They are Civil Servants. 'Ordinary' Nigerians like you...

venorite: They should fu*king divide this messed up country. When you start stealing from the old, you are heartless.. Every politician deserves to die either through plane crash or boko haram God save your people. 35billion,damn

Is that your brilliant solution to corruption in Nigeria? Dividing the country? Mumu.

since u r not sure then shut úr trap every half reasonable nigerian knws dt gej is balless n incompetent.

There NLanders, I have been supporting president Jonathan on this forum of recent because of some good jobs he has done. But with this level of corruption in Nigeria, I have withdrawn my support. I am giving my support to Buhari finally. I have read from you guys in the past that what we need is a leader that can deliver the good gains of democracy, irrespective of where he comes from.

Buhari remains the only leader in Nigeria, that has no traces of corruption, Obasanjo testified to this. that when buhari was the minister of petroleum somebody said some money should be hanging in the fingers of buhari, and buhari didint find it very funny, and came to report to obasanjo, how he was greatly disappointed.

I challenge anyone in this forum to bring out a number of corrupt allegations against buhari, and bench mark against GEJ.

GEJ is not d Judiciary, you IJIOT.. He is doing exactly what is expecting of him here: create a System that Exposes these thieves, and then arresting and prosecuting them. And he has done so in this case WITHOUT any external prompting. Sentencing of a criminal is completely d Judiciary....#overemphasisonGEJgo killsomeofunaoneday

RockMaxi: It is not only politicians that are holding this country to ransom the Civil service are the worst and most corrupt they are the reason this nation is still like this. From ghost workers to inflated contracts and now to pension fund.

my thought as well, they do virtually nothing in the office, they only wait for monthly allocation to share among themselves, they won't give the umemployed opportunity to work, they keep changing their date of birth to stay long in service.

Nawa oo ;DNawa oo

U see their life?

Hamazz1: since u r not sure then shut úr trap every half reasonable nigerian knws dt gej is balless n incompetent.

Don't bother responding to paid commentators of Reno Omokri on Nairaland

Demonic kleptomaniacs/sympton of a corrupt & failed govt! My mum's not been paid 7 yrs pension areas! Their days r numbered!

GEJ is working, once again we see how this govt. Is a. Govt. Of illusions, once we r awed with one corrupt tale, then they blight us with another very soon this animals would br be stealing in the trillions, wait they already stole that much, subsidy trillionaires who funded GEJ reelection, and they still walk free, all because a clueless ingrate found his way to Aso Rock, God should show us mercy even though we don't deserve it, Abacha went in strange circumstance, moral of the lesson, Jonathan and his minions must learn that real POWER lies with God!

Division of the country will only make things worse for all break-way countries, the mafia leaders in individual countries of break away Nigeria will finally be able to have a firm grip! There will be a return of Idi amin-of-breakway-Nigeria, Mobutu-Seseseko-of-breakway-Nigeria. It will be wars upon wars everyday! We are better fighting this as one whole Nigeria.....there is no easy road out of this mess, we all just have to be brave.
The pensioners didn't help matters, they were once there, they once had power, they once worked in same office, they saw it going on, they enjoyed it and now it has come to bite them.
We got it wrong when Nigeria voted a man because his region was the treasure basket of the country, we got it wrong when Nigeria did not vote a man because everyone believed his region had a born-to-rule mentality. We got it wrong when Nigeria voted a man because he said he had no shoes as a boy. If we think like this and Nigeria breaks away with this kind of mentality all the break-away countries will also get it wrong, because then it wont be regional politics, it will be community politics.

There is simply no reason why GEJ should be re-elected, he has shown the highest level of incompetence, he has shown that he is very weak when it comes to corruption, the fear of corruption is dead in govt. If the aviation minister can justify her purchase of 2 BMW for over N250Million and still spend another day in same position....it speaks volumes that GEJ like he said about his assets declaration, doesn't give a damn!. And it is sad! You can't rule a country as big as Nigeria and not give a damn!. Think about the transformation from a man who once had no shoes to a man who now doesn't give a damn! We need humble leaders, we need someone that can look corruption straight in the eye and shoot out that eye!
The solution to corruption is looking at us straight in the eye, DEATH Penalty! but the big question is? Would You impose death penalty on yourself?
If GEJ can use the kind of power he used against Gov. Amaechi in Rivers State to wrestle corruption, he would be the best thing to ever happen to Nigeria since Nigeria was amalgamated by the fraudulent and self centered BRITS!
I look forward to the day when Nigeria will join USA and Gambia, and remove its self from the Commonwealth of SLAVED nations.

slap1: Make I hear say Nigeria go better.

naija go better

taharqa: I hope that d IDIOTS who hv commented on this thread undastad that it is President Jonathan's Task Force that is exposing and prosecuting these Pension Thieves in d ministry (most of which happened b4 his tenure). Compare to d FRAUD going on in lagos, esp that LekkiEpe SCAM, where Fashola refused to release info to the people who took d State to court unda d guise that the State does not recognise d Freedom of Information (FOI) Bill...

Their brains are too shallow to know that, maybe na APC task force dey investigate and arrest or na GEJ tell those aboki people to continue looting Nigeria money and na GEJ be de judge wey no de gree pass better judgement for court. There are so many dump people on Nairaland and guess the party they all support, APC thats to show you how dump the party is and is made up of clowns without brain.

Donmams: Men! Buhari is going to have a hard time finding enough jail cells to put all of these gov't thieves in 2015!

and what makes you think Buhari will ever smell aso rock again. Buhari ruined his political career. How many times has he contested? and how many times has he won?

if we adopt the CAPITAL punishment system for politicians and office heads found guilty of corruption, i'm sure everyone contemplating inhumane looting will think twice.
Everyday i tune to the news, its one corruption/looting story or another..is there ever hope for this country??

Omexonomy: That money was been stolen right from the days of ibb abacha obj et al. Gej is just trying to expose them and the amount been stolen so as to show the public what is going.

Who's this dunce?

Some very senior civil servants are extremely rich even richer than politicians.

There are too many loop holes. The fault fall squarely on the president. He should make the much needed reform and block the siphoning holes.
