Edger Hoover’s FBI v Nuru Ribadu’s EFCC – The death of the Corruption crusade in Nigeria

J.Edgar Hoover

John Edgar Hoover (January 1, 1895 – May 2, 1972), generally known as J. Edgar Hoover, was the first Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) of the United States. Appointed director of the Bureau of Investigation—predecessor to the FBI—in 1924, he was instrumental in founding the FBI in 1935, where he remained director until his death in 1972. Hoover is credited with building the FBI into a large and efficient crime-fighting agency, and with instituting a number of modern innovations to police technology, such as a centralized fingerprint file and forensic laboratories.
Hoover was highly regarded by much of the U.S. public, but posthumously he became an increasingly controversial figure. His many critics asserted that he exceeded the jurisdiction of the FBI.[1] He used the FBI to harass political dissenters and activists, to amass secret files on political leaders,[2] and to use illegal methods to collect evidence.[3] It is because of Hoover's long and controversial reign that FBI directors are now limited to 10-year terms


Nigeria's Nuru Ribadu

Nuru Ribadu could have broken the corruption circle that has become the bane of our society today, corruption cases in all sector of the economy could have been brought from all high 98% corruption level in all sectors to a manageable 15% to 20% . If only he was allowed to get on with his job and make Nigeria a better place. At times it is better you just leave the guy to get on with the job he knows, he will not only learn from his mistakes he will be strengthen by his own failures and short-comings. Just like J Edger Hoover he will fine tune EFCC into Nigeria’s FBI it will not be an easy task but is doable if only he was giving time. Just the mention of Nuru Ribadu’s name at height of his reign in the EFCC was enough to put the fear of God on some of our corrupt public officers. Today the EFCC name does not create the same hysteria that it once did , it has been tainted with same brush as Nigeria Police Force if not a worse brush. Today a state Governor can send his lackey’s on a fun day out by sending his driver and orderly on a Sunday rendezvous every month from Akwa to lagos to change N255 million to dollar or pound. If it were the good old days not only the police officer’s in lagos will be apprehended, the orderly , the driver, and his majesty the Governor will all give account of what transpired.


I once remember my first job in England as security personnel in a top law firm in central London. One Sunday morning I was sitting in the front office reading newspaper as there was nothing much to do on Sundays. A gentleman came into the lobby and I queried him asking him who he was, does he have any form of ID, he was very impressed at the way I queried him. On seeing his ID he was one of the partners that own the law firm. Having discovered who he was I was consumed with trepidation and fear thinking I have corked up and will surely be fired. But to my utmost surprise I was not only giving a raise on my hourly rate I was also recommended as a supervisor which at the time was fantastic. The problem with Yaradua, is because his name was amongst the 31 Governor that was pencilled down for investigation as been corrupt, he Yaradua became insecure in himself as he felt that Nuru knows too much of his internal dealings and should therefore be gotten rid off sooner rather later. If it happened in other climes, the Chief executive will not only reward him handsomely but will retain him as corruption czar for as long possible. OBJ basically turned a blind eye on Ribadu’s activities he allowed the young man to get on with his job. Although OBJ used Ribadu for other extra ordinary renditions which can be classified as collateral damages in a war of different ideals, opinions and thoughts there is nothing stopping Yaradua from doing the same.


The Irony of Yardua’s action is Ribadu’s capability of intelligence gathering combined with yaradua’s thoughtful approach to issues of importance would have been an intelligence marriage made in heaven, a quality the country needs while the proxy war in the delta rages on. This marriage has been broken by the insecurity of the president, Nigeria has lost out on the early momentum gained in her fight against corruption.
Nigeria as a nation should have allowed him to continue his crusade on corruption just like J. Edger Hoover. He was the pioneer boss of EFCC just like J. Edgar Hoover was the pioneer boss of the FBI. History as shown that Pioneer Bosses always stir the ship to unprecedented height and success the evidence is there for all to see with the current state of the FBI.

I just hope this ship can stirred back on course before we hit an ice-berge but I have this very strong feeling that we have already hit one. I might however be wrong but time will tell.

If his the right man for the job let it be because the experiment called Nigeria will soon expire.

God will never be that wicked to have nuru ribadu be president of Nigeria. Never.

Nuru ribadu record

the north have ruled for nearly over 40 year in nigeria. and control nigeria money. and have enrich themself with nigeria money.
The north based government in abuja get 55% of the country revenue , while northern state and local government get 25% of the money. the south get about 20% of the money.

If you add up how much the north get from oil revnue it is 55 + 25 = 80 of the revenue from oil. out of the 55% to the federal govt only less than 10% get back to south.

So the north have been getting 70% of the oil revenue.

North when nuru ribadu was head of EFCC. Nuru ribadu mostly  arrested 95% southerner, while northerner have been the brain behind the government fraud in nigeria. at least 70% of the government fraud in Nigeria are done by northerner, but what did Nuru ribadu do , his stat shows 95% of the arrest he made were southerner. Nuru Ribadu was a bias EFCC chairman.
even while the government fraud was carried out by Nuru Ribadu fellow northerner Nuru ribadu look away. He refused to arrest northerner. so he was bias. Is that who you want to make president? a bias man.

I would not vote for him on this record. So imagine what he would do when you make him president. 99% of contract would go to the North. Action speak louder than word. His action does not show what nuru ribadu preach.

And nuru ribadu launching himself for president abroad to replace Yar adua is too funny. It was Nuru ribadu and el rufia that cleared yar adua, making claim that yar adua was the most holy person on earth, he is now going about claim about yar adua. I do not think him and el rufia has an moral ground to be president.

why do you say that, you think i am scared of the mafia? NO, i am not. man only dies one.

Knowall I only reply question on this thread. to have all in part. The north recieve 64% of Nigeria revenue see calculation on this thread. stop telling people lies.
