1. The NNPC was summoned by the House of Reps and it was declared the JP Morgan account that they were running was illegal and needed to be closed on place of the constitutional federation account where revenues should be paid.. But they had already made their illegal $20 billion deductions and other amounts not remmitted to the federation account 2. The executive president possesses the power to query or suspend non performing heads of agencies or sack them outright in cases of non performance or fraud, that's why the president is the head of government. Like I said, if they fail, you fail. 3. I meant the presidential system of government.. Typo 4. The president started using his powers when he had lost election, he sacked at least 4 heads of government without any reason, didn't he? What happened in 5 years? Sanusi's was suspended for flimsy reasons and replaced, what happened with Denziani and Anba Moro? I haven't said you shouldn't be a supporter, but I expect at least objective arguments Whynotthetruth: |

We have the EFCC don't we? What's their constitutional job? If they fail to do their job who should we blame? EFCC chairman? And who has the power to sanction him like the Ex-CBN boss was sanctioned? Like I said, Jonathan had a choice to do his job or not, but one thing is certain, when the people under you fail in their responsibilities, you fail too. So its your choice to make them work or shift blame. Whynotthetruth: |

I argue with respect and state my points, that's mature. I don't engage in direct insults and unnecessary angry outburst during an argument, I'm not a kid... I've been simply replying your posts without telling you how stupid I think some of them are.. face the argument and quit the outburst, that's what makes you mature... Back to No. 1. I don't understand why you should recommend a document for me, what is the relationship with the point I raised about the NNPC operating an illegal account? State the point here in a single sentence, does the document say they have a right operate a foreign account other than the federation account? Is the document superior to the constitution? It was stated clearly at the house of assembly that the said account was illegal, what's your counter opinion or point? Please be objective for the sake of the discussion Whynotthetruth: |

socialmediaman: Sorry if you feel offended...but have you ever stopped to ask how those people like Diezani, Abba Moro, etc you have been blackmailing and maligning here without proper investigation or informed decisions or any formal conviction by any court feel too...You term Jonathan corrupt with no evidence; does he not deserve same respect you crave for...You write that Jonathan runs a corrupt government because of what APC said but refuse to believe that of Transparency International; are you being fair....What is good for the goose is also good for the gander....good evening.... Yes...House of Reps not house of assembly said the account is illegal...before NNPC boss Mr Dawha corrected same by showing NNPC act 1977 which allows such and guides their operations...unless PIB is passed which may repeal this 1977 act; it is still right for NNPC to continue same way.... Kindly go and read the act...equip yourself....and engage in informed argument.... thanks modified 1 Like |

Lol, these people are public officers, they're elected or appointed by the elected people to handle the affairs of this nation. Unlike me, they're required to declare their assets, unlike me they're required to be accountable to the public, unlike me they're required to consider the interest of the public first before personal interest. El Rufai was criticized for awarding contracts or land to his family members, would our fathers be criticized for giving is their personal lands? A measure of public discipline and accountability is required from public officers, because that's what they're paid to do. If they fail, they fail not just their families but millions of Nigerians. Abba Moro's failures caused many lives of our fellow citizens, should we keep quiet and consider his job over the lives of those innocent people? Whynotthetruth: |

socialmediaman: Be sure that in as much as you throw respect to the dogs to call them names; you will receive same from me and others... If we go by your template on Abba Moro, buhari has no moral justification to be president because over 800innocent lives were wasted because of his ambition... whats good for the goose is good for the gander.... |

What other respect do you want? I haven't called Abba Moro stu.pid, nor have I called GEJ an i.diot? I think he was corrupt, very corrupt, including mama peace too, one of the most corrupt governments we ever witnessed, very irresponsible and insensitive government (watch my use of "irresponsible govt" and not "irresponsible GEJ"). He was a good man, I know, but a bad leader, not what Nigeria needs at this time, maybe never again! Whynotthetruth: |

socialmediaman: O thanks...kindly go and educate yourself about our system of government, NNPC acts, leadership styles under democratic settings and then come back to engage me here...I don't engage "experts" graduates of beer parlour information and analysis of a system they know absolutely nothing about...Reading doesn't cost a thing...try it... |
