12 Things Buhari Govt Is Putting In Place To Revive Nigerian Economy - Adeosun / Why We’re Not Probing APC Members – SGF / EFCC Probing Jonathan, We Will Invite Him To Respond To Our Evidences – Magu (2) (3) (4)
Presidency: Probing Jonathan's Govt Is Not A Witch-hunt by lolaxavier(m): 12:49am On Jul 24, 2015 |
The Presidency, on Wednesday, July 22, said the decision of President Muhammadu Buhari to probe only the Jonathan administration, leaving out administrations before him, is not to with-hunt the former President. It said that series of fraud that pervaded the past government are too massive for any responsible government to ignore. Speaking in a telephone interview, Special Adviser to the President on Media & Publicity, Femi Adesina, said there is glaring evidence that shows trails of monumental fraud everywhere. “It is a simple thing. Before he was inaugurated, the President said that it will be a distraction for him to start digging deep into past governments. He said so. I don’t see anything new. But it will be irresponsible of any government to leave things of the immediate past that are glaring and evident and not do anything about it," Adesina said. Buhari had on Wednesday vowed to arrest and prosecute former ministers and government officials who looted funds and stole Nigeria’s crude oil. He said the suspected officials stashed the funds in foreign bank accounts, spoke during his three-day visit to the United States. Adesina further stated, “it is not a witch-hunt. You have evidence and they are glaring. A responsible government should do something about it. It is not about the former president. It is about how they acquitted themselves in the responsibility they were given. When you are given a public responsibility, you are responsible to the people. “You must account. When you bury a corpse and the legs are sticking out, have you buried the corpse? No. Once there are trails of money, in dollars everywhere, a responsible government should investigate. It is not as if they are witch-hunting anybody" he said Meanwhile, the People's Democratic Party (PDP) has said it is not against Buhari's plan to plan to probe the Jonathan administration, stating that the past government has nothing to hide, adding that it has nothing to be afraid of. http://pulse.ng/politics/presidency-probing-jonathan-govt-is-not-a-witch-hunt-id4006644.html

I don't even care. Either it is witchcraft or witch-hunt, abeg probe anyone that has been suspected. Let tanoids drink acid or continue wailing, Buhari must probe and deal with anyone found wanting. You only do not have the best interest of this country at heart if you question the ongoing probes taking place. How can a country like Nigeria degenerate to this mess and some people expect those that perpetrated criminal acts to be allowed to roam free. They basically brought this country to its knees and some mumus are complaining. 4 Likes 1 Share |

though he can probe the last administration, he shouldn't limit it. There are certain cases which needs to be open in other administrations i. e political assassinations, 4.2trillion nepa contract, gulf money, Halliburton scam etc unless he's scared of those ex presidents. if he has no plans of taking up such cases, he shouldn't bother probing JONATHAN'S administration. |
Re: Presidency: Probing Jonathan's Govt Is Not A Witch-hunt by pedel: 2:14am On Jul 24, 2015 |
denedene:GEJ should have probed the administrations before him. All these cases you mentioned, which GEJ did nothing about, are further proof that his administration was corrupt, clueless and deserved to be voted out and mercilessly probed. 2 Likes |

Yes only a lobotomize individual will say the past administration wasn't heavily laden with corruption and corrupt individuals. It was something that was very lucid for all to see. The way and manner everybody did as he or she pleased was annoying and gut wrenching. To borrow the words of Patrick Obahiagbon "it is visible to the blind, and audible to the deaf" that the GEJ administration is the most corrupt administration in the history of Nigeria. And I sincerely hope and pray PMB will probe and punish those who orchestrated the Immigration Job Scam. Those who died as a result of the scam truly deserves JUSTICE. 3 Likes |

Nigerians are the most backward set of people in the world. In a sane society, pauperized citizens, irrespective of their nationalities, will stage protests to support accelerated probe of the most corrupt administration in the history of the nation. I ask TANoids and their fellow wailers again, did Jonathan's and his ministers' loots benefit you in one way or the other? In what way will you benefit from their stolen wealth other than for PMB to try recover some of them and use same for further development of Nigeria? Or would you prefer PMB to look away, steal as much as he can too and allow incoming ministers loot as they wish; then leave the stage worse off than he met it and we continue the cycle till we become a failed state completely? I wonder how we got ourselves in this type of psyche that supports and defends corruption! |

PROBING DIS MAN BECAUSE HE HIS GENTLE is an act of cowardness from buhari, if i really want me to believe he is a strong man let him dare probe d likes of OBANSANJO, ATIKU, BABANGIDA, TINUBU, and all d thiefs surrounding him, and see maybe he will be alive to tell d story (AM NOT WISHING HIM DEATH), probing jonathan is an act of cowardness by buhari, and i expect d igbos to fight 4 dis if it happen. |

He should probe after all as the president, he is entitled to such. But seriously have U noticed that everytime he wants to partake or conduct some fictious financial actions he brings back the "PDP Is Sleazy Corruption Campaign(PSCC) |

Johnnoah1st: What is dis one saying ![]() What's Nigeria's business with anyone being gentle? Gross misconduct took place during this man's tenure and you are there talking rubbish about gentility. Sometimes, I amazed by the mental capacity of some people that post comment on NL. If not that gej has been saturated with corruption, why did he not probe when he was in power? Rubbish talk! |

Johnnoah1st: What you typed shows that your reasoning is purely hollow and empty. As far as I'm concerned, PMB is taking a bold and gigantic step to probe misdeeds and wrongdoings of gej and his crew. If you are not satisfied with it, the lagoon is big enough to grant you free accommodation. People like you will continue to wail till thy kingdom come. |
