He was the president during the era of oil boom. See me his outstanding achievement till date to vindicate of the accusations.

Let's not be emotional about this. Yakubu Gowon was in Ethiopia attending a meeting when he was overthrown. So how did he then move half of CBN? Did he come back to Nigeria to tell the new military govt to give him half of the CBN treasury? Impossible

I don't know if true or false. But I heard the gist even before now that they used Biafran war to loot central bank. I repeat I don't know if the rumour is true or false. I was told that they thought Biafra would win the war so everyone was just trying to steal and keep offshore

I sit is Nigeria anything can happen

Are you saying its not possible he may have moved the money previously before being overthrown?

U need to understand that cash movement is done over time. Am sure what happened was by the time he was overthrown he already moved half of CBN to UK

He must have proof or do you know better than him?if not please keep quite and let them expose this people who have stolen our Nigeria money. look at the level of poverty in this country, very bad

Ezmans:
your logic is too poor

if his logic is poor bring your own superior logic let's read. Don't just say someone's logic is poor without proving it. Na wa.

felixzo1:
he is not a Nigerian politician, I believe he has his facts before making his statement,corruption did not start in Nigeria today ,politicians have become more aggressive with their stealing.

Delusions is when you believe anybody who's not a Nigerian has a fact.
Ask yourself in which country in the world have the corrupt Nigerian leaders deposited their large looted funds since 1960 the same UK.

More secret will expose gradually

So, Nigerian politicians wait until they reach their last days in office before they start stealing?

Do we Really need to enlighten you that they start stealing from their say one in office?

The way some of you comment, one would think your brains are dead.

Gowon did what no igbo man could ever do, Gowon will die and have peace but so many of our igbo warlords only God knows their fates

You really need to take a crash course on how money is looted.

Did Abacha steal what he saved abroad(abacha loot) the day he died?

"How could Abacha have stolen half of the CBN when he actually died? Did he move the money from the grave?.. it doesnt add up"

The above is exactly how watery your defense sounds...

Where and how exactly did you arrive at this conclusion that it was AFTER he was overthrown that he moved the money? I've seen someone else on facebook come up with this very illogical argument you put up here and I wonder where your picked this from.

When a leader is corruptly saving funds for the rainy day, why exactly do you think the leader would foolishly wait until the rainy day before moving the funds?

Who gave him transport fare to UK?

You think the UK will deny such investment from a former military head during an oil boom. In the 70's

Do you know what moving half of CBN means?
It means investments. Don't you understand English?

What happened to Renaissance?

Same way Cameron referred to Nigerians as fantastically corrupt. You think they make such statements for talking sake? These guys know the depth of corruption in Nigeria even more than Nigerians.

joseph1832:
Where is his proof Gowon took half of CBN? Like what does he even mean by saying Gowon took half of CBN?

Where is the proof Abacha stole money that we still recovering till 2050?

lolz, Buhari said he didn't steal so I believe Buhari

I wonder why people always support criminals. Most corrupt government is military government, nobody question the head of state. Every military head of state is a criminal including buhari. That accusation is possible.

the guy has more qualifications than our president. plus half his cabinet put together, i dont trust a single politician, especially those in the Nigerian government. the country has been on a downhill fall since independence anyone that feels otherwise is directly or indirectly related to or a part of the problem..
