barcanista didn't mean OBJ was a saint, he was only trying to put the level of corruption between the two PDP cabals on a scale, and GEJ's part is more than OBJ's. Get that right...PDP killing Nigeria since 1999. 1 Like |

OBJ fought corruption to an appreciable level to the extent of making an example of Chief Sunday Afolabi his senior at secondary school( who was only saved by death) and made a show of Tafa Balogun, a whole IGP of police But GEJ not only abandoned the fight,he glamorized looters,turned them into instant celebrities and offered them a shoulder to lean on He became a Rev Father for corrupt people by granting them Presidential pardon 1 Like |

Sincere9gerian: Odili said the prosecution failed to attach the list of witnesses and other relevant documents to the charge as required by law.http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2010/06/02/n50-million-scam-court-frees-wabara-osuji-abdulazeez/Did you read that the Prosecutors failed to attach list of witnesses? Why? because they don't give a damn. Why didn't the ICPC or the Attorney General Appeal the Judgement of Justice Odili? Do you know that the court case for acquittal by the Suspects in a Federal High Court in 2005 was dismissed? They couldn't get the "clean bill" at the High Court under Obj regime, but only got it under Jonathan, because the Prosecution didn't bring relevant document. Funny enough they didn't appeal The accused persons had urged an Abuja High Court to quash the charges against them on Nov. 10, 2005, but their prayer was dismissed by the court. Why is it that only this government that high powered suspects are giving frivolous clean bill of health? 1 Like |

barcanista: Do not mind the charlatan called SincereLIEgerian Whoever that does not know the logic GEJ led government uses to scuttle corruption cases against High Profile individuals/Politicians is an infant in Nigeria The government's prosecution witnesses are simply told to contradict whatever earlier statement they have made when the government was determined to nail an accused as against when the government is no longer interested in crushing the accused who must have begged,pledged allegiance or promise to tone down on his opposition against the government Since the courts cant manufacture evidence against anybody except that they normally rely on what witnesses say......someone who must then have been told not to cooperate any more by feigning different issues........the presiding judge and court will simply be left with no option than to discharge or dispose off the case for lack of diligent prosecution The few ones who stuck to their opposition against the government and got acquitted like El-Rufai and Tinubu did so on the merit of their cases which the government could not do anything to tarnish them with Every other person who had walked free or had his/case thrown out are majorly Pro-PDP members who cant dare raise their voices lest the government appeal the case against them.....people like Alao Akala,Gbenga Daniel,Orji Uzor Kalu,Attahiru Bafarawa,Saminu Turaki,Rashidi Ladoja,Chimaroke Nnamani,Achike Udenwa,Chiwonke Mmbadinuju etc who still have pending cases against them can never ever say 'pim' against the government lest their case files are dusted 1 Like |

Wow!!! another half truth isn't? 1. If Adolphus Wabara, Fabian Osuji, Abdulazeez Ibrahim, Emmanuel Okpede, Badamasi Maccido and Chris Adighije were all corrupt, how many of them are serving jail time now? Are you aware that they were set free by a court of law? what does say about the so-called fight against corruption? 2. Atiku is corrupt, where is him now? Lets turn to your lies against GEJ 1. He pardoned an ex-convict... emphasis on EX. The man has served his time, repented and was granted a pardon. Pardoning of ex-convicts and criminals is prerogative of a president, Obasanjo pardoned convicted coup plotters, President clinton pardoned his half-brother, a convicted drug dealer. Infact Clinton pardoned over 150 people. 2. Stella Odua is no more a minister, maybe you should take her to court armed with FOI 3. Why the lies bro? who withdraw the case against FFK? the case is still on going, and November 17 is the resumed hearing. EFCC closed it case and it is turn for the accused to enter defence. His team wanting to fill a no-case submission which is opposed by EFCC In response, the prosecutor, Mr. Festus Keyamo, urged the court to uphold his written submissions in opposition to the no-case submission, and call on the accused to enter his defence http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/court-reserves-ruling-on-fani-kayode-s/193750/ 4.

After-all, Buhari told us that Abacha never stole 5. Farouk Lawan is still in court, he cannot lose his seat as a member of house of representative unless he is convicted, the same Lagos house speaker didn't lose his speakership while his case was going on http://www.channelstv.com/2014/10/29/620000-bribery-farouk-lawan-fails-to-delay-trial/ 6.

Re: .......... by donphilopus: 11:14pm On Nov 13, 2014 |
Mogidi: Sir, when you guys were trying to use this suitcases' saga for campaign during the last election, it didn't yield a positive result and would never yield come 2015. Atiku was in PDP then in 2011 when Buhari was accused of hijacking some suitcases, Buhari asked the Jonathanians to direct their questions on the suitcases to Atiku, who was then the Area Comptroller of Custom in charge of the Murtala Muhammed Airport, but Atiku who was in the best position to speak on that, only blamed that on the rudeness and cruelty of the Soldiers, but couldn't say if Buhari truly personalized it or not. Responding to enquiries from newsmen on the issue during a campaign stop in Dutse, shortly before a courtesy call on Governor Sule Lamido, Buhari said that Atiku was in the best position to speak on the issue because he was in-charge of the Airport Customs. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2011/03/53-suitcases-saga-buhari-blasts-atiku-jonathan/ The major thing Atiku should have been using to campaign against Buhari now, is the suitcases saga, if he truly ran some stuff with them. But Atiku, being the guy who's in the best position to explain it to us, not campaigning with it shows that Buhari knows nothing about the 53 suitcases! |

Re: .......... by Nobody: 11:26pm On Nov 13, 2014 |
Mogidi:Buhari on Abacha “it is not true that he looted public treasury. I knew who Abacha was because I was close to him” It is VERY unfortunate that the General made such a statement. Though he made it during Abacha's 10years death remembrance (probably not to speak ill against the dead). However, record shows that Abacha was one of the Most Corrupt official. I believe GMB would have Prosecuted him if he(Abacha) was alive. |

datolee:It is like you are being quick to answer. The defence entered no case because the EFCC did not produce ANY of her witnesses. “The prosecution called six witnesses, and of all these witnesses, none of them came forward to give any evidence that they had any financial transaction with the accused.Like I said, we all know where the case is heading. Is this how prosecution work? 2. For Bode George... A five-man panel of the court, in a unanimous judgement, maintained that as at the time the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, charged the former NPA boss to court, the offence of ‘’contract splitting,’’ was not known to any Nigerian law. - See more at: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2013/12/npa-contract-scam-s-court-acquits-bode-george-5-ex-convicts/#sthash.5haiTbQ4.dpufNote, not because he wasn't guilty of the offence but for that ridiculous reason.
