Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has said that the Federal Government must do more than just talking about whether or not the
Halliburton and Siemens corruption scandals, will be reopened, adding that President Mohammadu Buhari should disabuse the minds of Nigerians
who believed that his fight against corruption was selective and political by going ahead to try those indicted in the Halliburton and
Siemens scams.

Governor Fayose, who commended the Federal Government for saying that the case was not dead, said it was not enough to tell Nigerians that a
case like the Halliburton and Siemens, in which many people have been jailed in other countries, especially the United States and
investigations concluded in Nigeria with those alleged to be involved questioned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) was
not dead. Rather, those already found wanting should be prosecuted.

Speaking through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, the governor said; “As it still appears, the
statement made by the Federal Government on the Halliburton and Siemens corruption scandals may not be more than another decoy to
shift the attention of Nigerians from the selective nature of President Buhari’s fight against corruption.”

The governor described the publicised arrest of President Buhari’s associate and All Progressives Congress (APC) Chieftain, Jafaru Isa,
and his reported refund of N100 million to the EFCC as the first trick used by the Federal Government in its attempt to deceive Nigerians
into believing that the fight against corruption was not selective.

“Like I have maintained, I do not buy into the EFCC story of Jafaru Isa’s refund of N100 million because it raises more questions than
answers and I am also seeing this talks by the Federal Government about reopening of the Halliburton and Siemens scams as an aftermath
of the failure of the Jafaru Isa’s stunt to achieve the desired result.

“This is because unlike the arms deal that the EFCC is investigating, the Halliburton and Siemens scams have been investigated both in
Nigeria and in the other countries. None of the top Nigerian culprits implicated in the $1.5 billion bribery scandal had been questioned and
put on trial in Nigeria while others from other countries were alreadyserving various jail terms.

“Therefore, reopening the Halliburton and Siemens scams should be immediate and total. It should not be another decoy to deceive
Nigerians by giving the impression that the anti-corruption war is not targeted at those opposed to President Buhari in the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) and his own party, the APC.

“Also, the president should go a step further by directing the EFCC to investigate the many petitions written against those who financed his
election and other chieftains of the APC, including Ministers serving in the government presently.

“Until those alleged to be involved in the Halliburton and Siemens scams and those who financed the President’s election with public funds are charged to court, Nigerians will be right in believing that the fight against corruption is only an instrument of settling
political scores.”

Mumu man.

Very typical of apshit touts: they always have no meaningful contribution to intellectual talks, therefore attack personality so as not to appear lame. But we all k ow, they r LAME

They lack developmentAl gumption n leadership acumen so they deploy diversive means to keep d populace busy.

They r like bh, they have nothing to request for, so dey blow demselves

When Jonathan and PDP was in power why didnt he prosecute them?

If you cant tackle corruption shut up when others are doing it.

I like this man's radicality when it comes to pin pointing facts.

The next president of Nigeria

Sometimes I wonder if this man is educated at all.. ..
U just make careless statement that u can't defend.. .. If u are ask to show evidence that buhari's election was sponsored by illegal money can u??

U are a Governor for christ sake talk like one

This man must change PMB....

He's the only yoloba I actually like. That fayose is not full yoloba. He should test his DNA, i bet you there is none coward and none hausa/Fulani slave gene from another clan running through him.

Keep being different from your people. It's a good and welcomed development. It shows there are people in your clan that aren't braindead and happy, go lucky slaves.
