In response to Ono's contribution:#60 I dont think OBJ embezzeled money to finance Bell University and Library Project. Its like using one's position to create awareness, get some money and use it for the benefit of Humanity. By the way why do pliticians postpone their sons & Daughters wedding until they gets to power? Why must Delta State has a federal University? why must every state have one? Its like asking Questions like Why cant Ogun, Ekiti & Osun dont have Airports? Muyiwa's mansion in New york. I was suprised people are making noise about this? Gbenga Obasanjo is very very rich( this is b4 1999) Its so stupid for politicians and position holders to steal b'cos they dont need to. Contact that they make during their sojourn should be enough FOR LIFE. OBJ make good use of this, i can bet it, he got contact since 1979, when he became the first africa head of state to relinquish power volountarily. His personal touch got Nigeria that debt forgiveness. People dont know why he travelled out of the country for two years out of four years in his first term. |

.....the new Bayelsa speaker wants security forces to remain PERMANENTLY in Yenagoa...... My people, if truly ''due process'' was followed in the ''impeachment'' of Alams and his subsequent arrest, do you think they need security forces to remain stationed permanently in Yenagoa - to quell any uprising? If the constitution of the country was truly followed in his ''impeachment'' - no hasty conclusion, no teleguiding from EFCC, no remote control from Aso villa, and no forged signatures! No threats about some phony ''constituency projects'', do you think the people will not fully embrace these guys who ''impeached'' Alams - to save them from Alams? Most of you folks have never been to Yenagoa - no doubt, from what I've been reading! I served (NYSC) in Bayelsa State, and I know what's on ground there. I know how difficult it is to construct one kilometre of road over there. I also know that it took a lot of guts from Alams for the FG to consider linking up the state to the National Grid. As I write, they guys on site are working to link up the state to the grid... Do you think the people did not appreciate all these. The Niger Delta University in Wilberforce Island is a legacy site for all Niger Delta People. Many Bayelsans have been gainfully employed during Alams tenure. Nobody was complaining in Yenagoa in particular and Bayelsa in general before OBJ came and suspended the state allocation. My people have you ever stopped for once and ponder over this Alams jumping bail matter? Do you think someone like Alams will leave the UK soil without the knowledge of the British security apparatus? Lets face it. I repeat, do you think Alams will LEAVE the UK without the knowledge of the British security forces in these days of terrorism? That he dressed like a woman has been confirmed false! Intelligence reports has it that he was actually escorted out of England by their security forces! Tony Blair's silence on OBJs letter is instructive. Silence is the best answer to a fool! And for those of you who think Britain has been collaborating with looters from Nigeria, I tell you British interests all over the world is far greater than whatever a Nigerian ''thief'' has got to offer them... and even the entire country as a whole have got to offer them! |

In my previous post, I pleaded for application of diplomacy in this issue. I'll quote from the post: But, we must be very careful in dealing with Brit... because they have civilized way of laundering our money.I am making it clear now that the release of Alams has something to do with the British Security Council. You can not tell me that with the computerised Security Network in Britain, Alams who should be a major target, will just wear gown, maybe put foams in bra worn on his chest and just walk into plane...... is very hilarious!!! I believe people speak for her leader. If the people could solidly stand behind this man, instead of shouting: prosecute him!, then this man is doing something for Bayelsa.Come to think of it, almost every governor, even the best of all, has mansion outside naija; but we still say this governor is very good. You can varify this by doing some underground works on these our good governors---likes of Nnamani, Duke, Tinubu, Odili. None of them will be found pure. I no dey easy oooo to be a governor (LOL), even you guys will set some establishments with such a position. Abi, una no spend money campaign (JUST JOKING but serious oo So lets stop mentioning castles he built, but concentrate on whether he was doing something with the money left "after his satisfaction". What of Atiku? May he will be prosecuted after his immunity expires, eh? |
Re: Bayelsa State: DSP Alamieyeseigha Impeached and Arrested by ono(m): 12:39pm On Dec 13, 2005 |
drbigdaddy, You be my man for this matter......All these people who are shouting crucify him have told several lies to day and for years now. None of dem fit claim say dem dey clean...If them give them chance dem go beat Alams records for stealing! I hope you folks know that ''all'' the money you want to claim belongs to you actually belongs to the people of the Niger Delta? - since 1958 that crude was discovered in Oloibiri, near Alams village to date, how much has the other parts of the country contributed to the national purse? All we do is to shout and crucify people without facts and figures. We listen and read some cooked up stories about people and come here and shout. We don't even stop to ponder and reason properly (due in part to long years of military misrule), we just swallow the the stories hook, line and sinker.....May God forgive us all. Alams town, Amassoma, for instance has several oil fields producing the golden egg that fills up the national purse and eventually makes up the national cake that Babangida, Atiku, OBJ and his Holding companies, farms and all, OGD, Abuja Minister, Danjuma, etc etc are feeding fat on. So can some one tell me why Alams should not take from something that comes from his backyard before thieves from other places will feed fat on it? Someone said Gbenga Obasanjo was very rich before now. I will like EFCC to investigate the source of somebody who was a university student in New York and after graduation bought a mansion in New York during his father's tenure as President. When the lid was blown open, they quickly covered it up and to date nothing has been said about it.... |

NOW I KNOW WHY IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO RESPOND TO EVERY COMMENTS ON THIS FORUM. It is good to "sidon & look" ( apology Chief Ige). How on earth could somebody who reside in Abia state knows that UK uses computerized Security Network. In UK, the immigration officer log u in but they don't log u out.( The contract had been awarded to IBM though). To get out of the Country is POROUS. Probably because of hatred, someone will just sit down and cook up something. Haba! |

Re: Bayelsa State: DSP Alamieyeseigha Impeached and Arrested by ono(m): 3:28pm On Dec 13, 2005 |
Lets leave Alams for now, after all he's down and out. I just read this one on the Punch now: I smell fish though.....I think I'll soon smell suya too...soon..... Nigerian-born tycoon runs $1bn oil business in US To hear Kase Lawal tell it, while his company has been successful in carving out a niche for itself, it still remains little more than a “drop in the bucket” when compared to its competitors. But when the bucket is the trillion-dollar energy industry, and the niche is pumping and processing crude from saturated oil fields in Africa, then a drop does not an Exxon make, but it is enough to make CAMAC Holdings the largest black-owned business in the world, and the unassuming 51-year-old CEO a modern-day oil magnate. In fact, from oil exploration, refining and trading, Lawal’s Houston-based company raked in a mind-boggling $1billion in revenue last year alone. With offices in London, Johannesburg, Lagos and Port Harcourt, that totals about 100,000 barrels of crude every 24 hours. “Business is great,” Lawal said of CAMAC, celebrating its 20th anniversary this month. “You just have to look at the newspaper to see the price of commodities.” From his headquarters in a high-rise in the swank Galleria section of Houston, Texas, the Nigerian-born entrepreneur can see the world like few others, and reflect on a vision that has helped him overcome a civil war in his homeland and entrenched colour barriers in America, parlaying the best of the both worlds to claim a share of black gold in the historically lily-White oil industry. Within CAMAC’s Houston offices, Lawal’s Nigeria, African roots and African-American influence are apparent. African art decorates the walls, while the talents of African-Americans can be seen throughout the corridors. An extremely private man, Lawal is reserved, yet dignified. But in business, Lawal’s bravado comes through. He will be the first to admit that searching for oil is not for the faint of heart. Big risks are taken in search of big rewards. “Sometimes, people think I’m crazy because I can sink in $40million looking for oil or gas; he said. “But if you catch it, if you get it, if you are able to get the reserves (strike oil), it pays for all of the other times you were unsuccessful. It’s an interesting business to be in.” The great thing about drilling for oil is that once established, “this industry doesn’t know colour;’ he said. “It’s about your success in drilling and being able to find reserves.” Much of his business acumen, he said, comes from his childhood experiences. He was born in Ibadan, Nigeria, a city of eight million people, about 100 miles north- west of Lagos. The son of a father who was a politician and a mother who was a textile store merchant in Ibadan, Lawal grew up during a time of political strife, as the liberation movement fought for freedom from British colonial rule. Lawal remembers spending endless days at the United States Information Service reading about the similar struggles of blacks during the Civil Rights Movement in America. “I read anything I could lay my hands on,” he said. “I read about Martin Luther King. I was fascinated with the plight of Blacks. America had a tremendous influence on young people all over the world during those days. We were very interested in knowing what was happening. And most young people wanted to come to America. I was just one of the fortunate ones.” He persuaded his parents to let him come to America to attend school. “I remember that morning,” he said. “I can still see my mother at the airport crying. It was the first time a person in my family was leaving home and going overseas. It was very difficult, but I was much more excited about what was ahead, and the curiosity of wanting to know what was in America.” He headed straight for Georgia, the hotbed of freedom movement activity. He attended Fort Valley State University, before transferring to Texas Southern University, where he obtained a bachelor of science degree in chemical engineering. He holds a master’s of business administration in finance and marketing from A&M University, Texas Lawal’s first taste of the energy business came after graduation when he worked as a chemist for Dresser Industries (now Halliburton) and later a chemical engineer with Shell Oil Refining Company. It wasn’t long before Lawal decided to venture out on his own. He started CAMAC first as an agriculture and commodities company that took tobacco from the South and made cigarettes to be sold overseas, but soon decided to use his knowledge of the energy industry to get into the field of oil exploration. But he ran into numerous problems trying to acquire land. After being unsuccessful at nearly two dozen auctions, Lawal decided to go overseas. He was given a big boost in 1989 when the Nigerian government indicated that it wanted to encourage its people to get more involved in its lucrative oil industry. One of the people the government reached out to was Lawal, their native son. “Most people working on platform were Nigerians, but their bosses were the major oil company employees from the West,” Lawal said. “The government asked me to try to organise Nigerians in the US who were working for oil companies and would be interested in being technical partners with indigenous companies.” He did, and in the process, realised that he could use his knowledge of Africa and America to gain a much bigger foothold in the industry. In 1991, Lawal signed several deals with major oil companies that would pave the way for the success that he enjoys today. “The best way for me to get into the industry was to know what the big boys wanted, the major oil companies, the big 10, the big 50:’ he said. “Did they have an interest in West Africa? If they did, I would go to West Africa and look for what they wanted and made it available to them. I understood the political landscape and business environment in those countries in Africa. When you merge those two together, there was a good synergy that was very attractive to the major oil companies.” |

Oga Ono the Wafi Man, by your own admission, Governor ALhelpmasef had been looting the Bayelsa State treasury for "six months" prior to his arrest , and the referee only blew the "foul" whistle when the looter stopped sending cash returns to other un-named co-conspirators in the PDP party. If there is general agreement that Governor ALhelpmasef DID in fact steal that enormous wealth traced to his ownership in the UK, why then do you so vehemently disapprove of him being extradited to serve the jail time for the crimes he committed ? All that money diverted into private bank accounts would NEVER have been utilized for the good of Bayelsa State's suffering people, therefore if you are in fact so concerned about the plight of the Niger Delta, you ought to be more enraged at your criminal ex-governor than we outsiders are, and thus should wholeheartedly support whatever jail time he earns for his misdeeds while in office. If your dissatisfaction stems from the fact that other kleptocrat government officials, both serving and retired, are yet to face the music, wouldn't you at least concede that justice must begin somewhere ? The governor of Plateau State is now also under the spotlight, and he will likely be followed by others, so why not just sit back like the rest of us and enjoy the gladiator show in Aso Rock ? |

Re: Bayelsa State: DSP Alamieyeseigha Impeached and Arrested by ono(m): 8:51am On Dec 14, 2005 |
I humbly submit to the opinion of the majority on this matter. A thief, WHEN CAUGHT, should face the consequences of his/her actions anyday. But we have to be careful in the way we look at matters like this. We all know that all the news about what Alams stole are at best ALLEGATIONS. His jumping bail in London is fraught with mysteries! Alams himself confessed that he did not know how he made it out of the UK! Then came his impeachment: Lets not be partial in our views on this matter. That a serving governor was impeached within 72 hours of setting up a committee to investigate his wrongs is ridiculous in a democratic settings! And, we should appreciate the fact that this matter is heavily tainted with a lot of political manouverings. We should look at all these before we conclude that the man should be nailed! As for me, I want to sign off on this matter, because of all the above FACTS. It's all shrouded in secrecy and bias! If this matter is put to vote of any kind, I'll remain neutral. I will not vote. Ladies and Gentlemen, pls have a nice day. |
Re: Bayelsa State: DSP Alamieyeseigha Impeached and Arrested by Jakumo(m): 9:15am On Dec 14, 2005 |
Ono you might find this difficult to believe, but London's Metropolitan Police and Scottland Yard DO NOT EVER issue arrest warrants based on allegations, but rather on FACTS provable in the court of law. After meticulous research and investigation, Bayelsa State's stolen money and the London real estate purchased with that loot were traced to Governor ALhelpmasef, and that is all there is to it. In this light, your Governor ALhelpmasef is as guilty as an adulterer caught on the down-stroke by a husband arriving home unexpectedly early from work. Let the man do his time, and stop whimpering about his fate, since he never cared a hoot about you and the rest of those resident in Bayelsa State while he made a career of embezzling the contents of the state treasury. The looting governor dressed as a fat ugly woman to escape trial in London, and that is how he evaded detection as he fled home like hunted antelope. No mystery there, as far as I can see. |
Re: Bayelsa State: DSP Alamieyeseigha Impeached and Arrested by ono(m): 9:42am On Dec 14, 2005 |
Alams is not my governor. I'm not from Bayelsa state. But you said the UK is a very POROUS country, I find it difficult here to correlate their porous nature with some kind of effective security networks - like Scotland Yard and Met Police....the security network that will allow Alams to leave their country undetected! Meticulous research and investigation my foot! And what makes you think that it's still the highly efficient Scotland Yard of yesteryears that we still have in the UK after the country have been rated POROUS? Just a couple of years back, there was this story that made the rounds that even the Queens(- or is it the Prince of Wales?) private residence was invaded by some photo crazy journalist without their efficient security networks noticing the strange guy....... So much about British Security! Just hear yourself! wow! '' The looting governor dressed as a fat ugly woman to escape trial in London, and that is how he evaded detection as he fled home like hunted antelope. No mystery there, as far as I can see'' Some people sef, just two days on this forum, and I'm getting convinced by the day that the long years of military misrule has done a lot of harm on us as a people in this country. What a country! |
Re: Bayelsa State: DSP Alamieyeseigha Impeached and Arrested by Jakumo(m): 10:06am On Dec 14, 2005 |
Ono, the research I alluded to concerned the financial dealings of the looting governor in the UK, and did not relate to the clearly inadequate measures taken to prevent his flight from justice. You are quite right that determined individuals do occasionally evade the tightest security networks globally, and I certainly have never claimed that security measures in any nation can be made absolutely impenetrable. Your reference to the unauthorized entry into Buckingham Palace is a good example of how not to protect a guarded perimeter. Finally, I do not quite follow the logic of your reasoning that my unflattering description of the fugitive governor's female attire can be blamed on military dictatorships in Nigeria. Is it your opinion that the obese, Idi Amin-looking governor must have looked beautiful and sexy when disguised in women's clothing ? |
Re: Bayelsa State: DSP Alamieyeseigha Impeached and Arrested by ono(m): 11:21am On Dec 14, 2005 |
The logic here is that from ur utterances about the way the man left the UK, our sense of judgement can become warped at times........and that can be traced to many years of military misrule! I might be wrong, please correct me, but given the gravity of the offence committed by Alams, I want to believe that a detachment of some Met Police folks should have been drafted to his residence to prevent the guy from going near any seaport or airport. If that's the case, then how on earth did he beat these security folks to it? - that he ''dressed as a fat ugly woman'' does not compute at all. But if that's not the case, I posit that the British Met. Police and Scotland Yard did a shoddy job of preventing the guy from leaving the UK. They should have taken a cue from OBJ when he drafted a detachment of Army and Mobile Policemen to secure Yenagoa and prevent Alams escape! As per his financial dealings, Jakumo, believe me, Alams is not alone in this. I believe OBJ himself is guilty. His time will come, just like it did during the Abacha era. His time will come again. And one should be free to correlate EVERYTHING, financial dealings and ALL with SHODDY security! Security matters a lot. If they were able to find out so much about Alams financial misgivings, then they should have put all the necessary machinery in place to prevent his escape from justice.....abi wetin my people think? Having gone through the stringent bail conditions imposed on Alams, I marveled at the way he escaped from Britain ''without'' their knowledge! C'mon man!, all these Alams story's a set up. He was framed up from the word go! Remember, he spent THREE solid months in the UK over this money laundering thing. I expected that they would prosecute him immediately they found all those phony huge sums of money on him. But they foot-dragged, imposed ridiculous bail conditions, and even came to Abuja to see OBJ on what to do, when they know fully well that the whole story about the guy's dealings is a frame up from Aso Villa and EFCC! Now, folks, lets leave this matter to the future to decide.......so much have been said. |

Re: Bayelsa State: DSP Alamieyeseigha Impeached and Arrested by demmy(m): 4:03pm On Dec 14, 2005 |
ono you dragged me back into this useless discussion with your childish and narrow attempt to exonerate your governor. First you claimed that given the gravity of his offence the British police ought to have put surveillance on him. but you're wrong there. there was no reason for that. he was not a terrorist. besides he has been properly charged and allowed bail by the court and his passport revoked. also he was a known entity, the governor of a state in Nigeria. no need to keep tab on him. If the court had suspicion he would escape he wouldn't even get bail. Second the case dragged for three months because your man claimed he had immunity. It was he who foot dragged. apparently he was planning his escape and needed the time. Third, if you buy into his nonsense about not knowing how he got back home then you're alluding kidnapping was involved. Is that what you're saying because Alams himself hadn't even attempted such an explanation he only limited his imagination to divine intervention. bollocks. ono your passionate e-attempt to convince us that that black is white is fraught with holes. your man is down and rightly so. he was the victim of his own greed. He also lack dignity to boot. |

I have signed off on this matter, but it seems you guys are bent on convincing me to the contrary. One bigblow to your outbursts (lists) of Alams sins is the source of the info - EFCC. The truth is that I don't trust the folks at EFCC - they are OBJs bootlickers and goons! And they only carry out his bidding on anything he's angry with. Besides, a cursory look at some of the ''contents'' of the list is simply outrageous - you can easily detect ''fraud or lies'' in such things as Alams owning the ''Bayelsa State Governor’s lodge located at Iro Dan Musa Street, off T.Y. Danjuma Street, Asokoro Area, Abuja'' We all know that almost all the state governors have such things as Governors Lodge in Abuja. The reasons for this is not far fetched - to make accomodation of guests of the governor and the governor himself cheap and safe. Here in Delta state for instance, the state governor has a Governors Lodge in GRA Warri. What the heck is wrong with that one? How in the world could he name such an edifice as Bayelsa State Governor's Lodge and people just will conclude that he owns it? Honestly, I'm befuddled that this kind of list will just sink into your sense of judgement - I mean swallow it hook, line and sinker and go to bed with it! Haba! try sit down and digest it's content, take some time out and reason why such things should be true. I call it 360 deg view about issues. Take a look at the ''Total picture'' ask questions. Don't get carried away with hatred for the man. For christs sake! he's a family man like most of us. Can't we be humane enough to at least weigh all these allegations in the light of reality? This is the last time I will contribute anything on this matter. |

WHO EVEN WANT YOU TO CONTRIBUTE IN THIS MATTER AGAIN ? This is one of our problem in this country. We don't look at matters in all angles. Honourable members, Dont be suprised if this guy(ONO) is one of those nonentities that were jubilating when that FOOL(excuse my language) sneek into their Bayelsa. ONO It was not Jakumo that says their security is POROUS, it is me and i REPEAT , it is porous. Up till today United Kingdom is the only developed Country where the immigration officers don't Stamp passengers out. The man can just get a "genje" or "oluwole" european passport and fly out via LutoN, Stanstead et la. He didnt even need to dress like a woman. Do you think Scotland Yard or Met Police have time for somebody who is not a threat to their country ? By his jumping bail,They have enrich their country with a lump sum of £0.5m. imagine ! This DSP sef, he's so full of himself, he has an exagerrated opinion of himself (apology comfort Obi). He thought he is so important. Ono says he's framed by OBJ ? Is he a threath to OBJ? As President of Blacks most populous country or As African Union Chairman or As chairman of Commonwealth group ? . Can he EVER MATCH what God has done for OBJ ? ONO, u are rooting for Due process for a thief. A thief has no other name except ole/ Barawo/Thief You were even saying OBJ is guilty. Guilty of WHAT ?[/b]Once again, thanks to you guys that spare your time to descend on this "yeye" comment, [b]TOGETHER OUR EAGLE WILL FLY AGAIN. |

http://www.vanguardngr.com/articles/2002/cover/december05/15122005/f415122005.html I have just read thru the latest on Alams, and I felt I should share it with my people. Please read the above link. Quoting copiously from the above link: 1) ''Mr. Rotimi Jacob, who represented the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Chief Bayo Ojo, withdrew the old charges, saying his action was necessary because the accused person was no longer a governor who enjoyed immunity from trial under section 308 of the 1999 constitution. 2) Alamieyeseigha’s counsel, Mr. Moses Ofeoshi, had argued that the prosecution did not accompany the first charges with proof of evidence or an affidavit in support of his claims as required by law even as Mr Jacob asked the tribunal to issue a production warrant to enable police release Alamieyeseigha for arraignment before the tribunal.'' 3) Immunity has suddenly become an academic exercise by the impeachment of the accused person. The argument has been overtaken by event. The previous application then has turned to a mere academic exercise. FACTS: 1. We all know that it was because of the ''old charges'' that this man (Alams) was removed from office. So, why the ''U'' turn now that his counsel wants ''PROOF OF EVIDENCE'' or an AFFIDAVIT in support of his (Attorney Generals) claims? I bet they could not produce either of the two, how? it was non-existent in the first place! - davidylan, Jakumo, etc are u folks still there with your truckloads of ''old charges''? 2. One can see how the lives and careers of people can be toyed with by a Cabal called PDP (People Deceiving People) in this case. The previous ''movie'' we watched about Alams has been branded a mere academic exercise! 3. It can be concluded, ''quod erat demonstrandum'' - QED, that the entire impeachment, capture, arrest (both London and Yenagoa) etc of Alams was a setup, a charade from EFCC and Abuja's Aso Villa. There's more to this matter than meet the ordinary eye. |
