Mr Obi hid money in a secret bank account in Panama, in his daughter's name.

A few other Nigerian politicians were named in the scandal.

Panama is a small country in South America where you can safely hide dirty money in secret bank accounts.

Check Google for 'Obi Panama account scandal'. It should come up with the details.

It is laughable that some think Mr Obi is a saint.

A few other crooked Nigerian politicians also did the same. I believe Mr Saraki, and immediate past Osun state governor was named in the scandal.

How much did Obi hide in his account there?

Is there a round figure?

As a political office holder (Governor), Mr Obi was forbidden by law from operating a foreign bank account without declaring it.

As Governor, Mr Obi tried to bypass this requirement by operating the Panama account in his daughter's name.

When he was caught, he said he was not aware of the law smiley

Like I said, oher Nigerian politicians do hide money in secret accounts in other people's name (usally their children) abroad. So, Mr Obi was not alone.

The only laughable thing is that he parades himself as a saint who is totally different from other politicians, and his supporters believe him 100%.

Soludo is doing a lot without borrowing,,
* Anambra Mix Used industrial parks at Ogboji
*Solution Fun city
*Solution innovative district
"Pharmaceutical drug distribution hub at Oba
* Anambra state export emporium * he is constructing many roads and flyover bridges
*Five hospitals across the state and so many others
Re: When Will South East Replicate This Amazing Lagos Rail? This Is Incredible (vid) by DesChyko: 7:42am On Aug 18
Maybe Soludo and the rest knows doing such doesn't come easy. They're trying to do what they can afford without plunging their states into further unproductive debts.

For pointers, Lagos owes about 30% of the external debt among states in Nigeria. Also Lagos owes about a trillion naira in domestic debt, about thrice the closest indebted state.

Those projects don't come at a cheap price.

Well, I cannot say for sure how he got his money...

But I know PO is a renowned business man.

I don't know if his business is capable of generating the amount of money he is accused of stashing in his foreign account though.

But his critics and speculators think it's Anambra state government's money he diverted to his personal account!

When Nigeria runs a true federal structure . By the way any updates on the planes that were mistakenly seized by the Chinese over the free trade zone contract that was mistakenly awarded by Chinese government and was mistakenly revoked.

That will be the day all of you will empty from that your dead SE.

Lagos and Rivers are the only states that are operating true fiscal autonomy.

All your SE states are wholly dependent on federal handouts and contribute next to nothing to both the federal purse and economy at large.

No ooooo ! Don't focus on your region ooo. Stay on Nairaland and keep abusing Tinubu everyday. Keep creating anti - Tinubu threads and calling him druggie on Twitter while Lagos is gradually turning to Nigerias Dubai. Despite all the hatred and envy to Lagos, Lagos keeps shocking them. Lagos is fast becoming another Kigali in the making and a template in leadership. When your enemies hate you, Jehovah God uplifts you. God shall put your haters to shame ! Where is Successmatters by the way? I miss those his anti-Tinubu threads oooo. Or shame don dey cashaam ?
Hope people can now understand why we insisted on peaceful protests the last time and spoke against any coup despite the gaslighting ongoing in other regions. We knew Lagos was ripe to break forth.

They have this political culture that any politician who gets into office deserves to recoup his money. They see political office as just another business venture that requires returns on investments.

When you consider the very low tax rates and abysmal IGR generation in their states and also see that their states depend mostly on FG handouts, you will understand why they give their elected politicians a free pass. Their elected officials keep most of their commonwealth to themselves without even providing the most basic social amenities outside road constructions that they get huge kickbacks from. This is why Obi could tell them boldly to their faces that he was not going to fund public services like building new schools and hospitals and that it was everyman for himself. Obi will then take their commonwealth and invest it in his own private portfolio.

They have zero say in how their governors spend their federal handouts but will carry their busybody to other states and the federal level to be forming advocates of good governance and transparency while promoting their crooked politicians as the only solution (see Obi and Otti).

Their case is one of not abiding by the very basic principles of charity begining at home and leading by example.

There's this shadow company known as Globim that was used about the same time by the governors of Anambra, Abia and Ebonyi to float an elephant monorail project. Obi signed an MoU with this company to build the Onitsha monorail. The governors of Abia and Enugu also signed MoUs with this front to construct municipal monorails I'm their respective state capitals. You can Google Globim and Enugu, Abia and Anambra monorail project .

That company was used as a front to pay for consultancy and feasibility studies and nothing more . An obvious scam money laundry project.

Show them evidence of this here and they will still defend blindly their oppressive wicked governors but will find a way to blame FG, Nigerians and the civil war .

Globim was awarded a similar rail contract by both Enugu and Abia state government around the same time with nothing on ground till date to show for it.

Tender by Globim to construct Enugu monorail system.

I have always insisted that...

Nigeria will only develop and change when people start to hold their state governments/governors to be more accountable.

Charity should begin at home!
