Ikengawo: Did you benefit from the slush funds? Why are you using tribalism to support, cover and mask corruption? Anyone that guilty shd go. The govt after Buhari should also do the same thing. The is the way to recover Nigeria from the gutters and the evil culture like the one you're defending. 24 Likes 1 Share |

Ikengawo: Helloooooooo, The evil culture must be destroyed one step after the other. I expect and want all the 'evils' of today too to be revisited tomorrow. With the magnitude of the looting under Jonathan, which the people have admitted, it makes no sense to be pointing to Tinubu or using tribalism to cover whatever. Can't you see how people are suffering in Nigeria? Are you this heartless? Condemn what is wrong. Prepare a petition on Tinubu. If PDP forms d govt in 2019 (as Bode George just said), don't spare any of the people of today. 23 Likes 2 Shares |

And so it came, chaff articles motivated by Tribalism, littering our cyber space. This time it's from olufamous.com The hilarious part if that everyone now knows the law. I keep saying this, even if leadership is give to the current young generation of Nigerians, they will fail. Our Educational system has been breeding illiterates as graduates. Unless our educational system is overhauled we cannot get it right in this country. Just take a look at sleekyp display of ignorance. You should have kept quiet on issues you have limited knowledge. Tell me, the Bail out fund given to States by Buhari's Administration is it illegal too? The Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala Alleged Illegal Diversion, What The Constitution Says & Dasuki I've read several opinions on this matter and most of them are emotional rather than logical. Let's break this issue down and address them bit by bit. Please note that this is strictly my personal opinion: Q: Was there a diversion? My take: Yes Q: Was the diversion illegal? My take: No, the diversion was not illegal. Ngozi duly got approval for the transfer and the use of the funds. She stated in the memo that the fund was to be shared on a 50-50 basis (security-development). With this approval from the C-in-C, the 'diversion', if you can still call it one, was legal and duly authorized. Q: But the fund was not appropriated? Isn't this wrong? My take: I believe the constitution empowers the President to spend without appropriation until at a later date according to Section 82 of the constitution. However, Ngozi's letter clearly stated that 'the funds form part of the projected Federal Government independent revenue to be appropriated'. Was it appropriated at a later date since the letter was dated January 2015? However, this is what the Nigerian constitution says on this issue and a I quote verbatim from Section 82: 82. If t "If the Appropriation Bill in respect of any financial year has not been passed into law by the beginning of the financial year, the President may authorise the withdrawal of moneys in the Consolidated Revenue Fund of the Federation for the purpose of meeting expenditure necessary to carry on the services of the Government of the Federation for a period not exceeding months or until the coming into operation of the Appropriate Act, whichever is the earlier: Provided that the withdrawal in respect of any such period shall not exceed the amount authorised to be withdrawn from the Consolidated Revenue Fund of the Federation under the provisions of the Appropriation Act passed by the National Assembly for the corresponding period in the immediately preceding financial year, being an amount proportionate to the total amount so authorised for the immediately preceding financial year". Q: Was it right for part of the money to go to security when it should have been used for infrastructure? My take: Without security, all infrastructure will go to ruins. Ngozi already explained that her office was accused of not making enough funds available to fight terrorism. Q: Don't you think Dasuki has a case to answer? My take: I believe he does. That is why I have been saying he should have his day in court. Ngozi has provided evidence of disbursement of funds to Dasuki's office as the NSA, so the onus for accountability now rests on him. However, I believe this is going to be a very tough case given the peculiar situation of security considerations. For instance, there are several DSS moles who are students in the Universities in the North East. The woman who sells roasted plantain across the street can be a mole. These kind of 'payments' are not receipted. Then, there are instances when arms are paid for in cash at the black market. What about cash paid for security information? Q: Are you saying Dasuki may be innocent? My take: No, that's not I'm saying. I'm saying that the prosecution will have a Herculean task proving their case and I wish them well. I also want anyone found guilty to be sentenced appropriately. Nevertheless, a war situation is always a very fertile environment for corruption. Fraud is common when you give away billions. And one will be a fool to defend any politician on a matter of integrity. Q: Some have been calling for the CBN Governor's head too? Don't you think he has a case to answer? My take: Wetin concern agbero for overload? What has he done wrong? Do you think he should have refused a lawful instruction for release of funds? People should think with their heads and not any other aperture in their bodies. Final Word: There was a committee set up on the Abacha recovered loot to determine how it should be spent. It was sequel to the decision of this committee that the NSA brought a request to NOI. It was on this basis that NOI requested for approval from the C-in-C. I think Ngozi should be commended for leaving a paper trail and on the face of it, this is what is called transparency and accountability. In the corporate sector, you would have said she 'covered her back'. She has been able to defend her actions and I believe others should do likewise. I wish all public officers can defend their actions while in office like she has done. And how I wish the same people shouting for Ngozi's head made a quarter of that noise during the Amaechi and Fashola saga. My opinion. You're entitled to yours- Ibrahim,IB bettercreature: Unless there's new developments, Dopkesi has no case to answer. Dopkesi is a business man, you can't persecute him if he receives money to provide services that is not in any way against Nigeria Constitution. EdCure: Stop putting up lame argument! Is publication the same as Appropriation? Why shift goal post...the Nigerian constitution allows a president to spend in certain situations without immediate appropriation otherwise how did Buhari have power to order the Bail out fund? oduastates: Presidency do have power to spend without appropriation. How was Bail out fund ordered without appropriation? 39 Likes 3 Shares |

That's why I said if there's new developments, but for the case so far, they have no case against him. Is being a PDP member amount to disobeying the law? Dokpesi is just there to answer for the money paid to him. Don't get me wrong, I am not any way saying Dokpesi is innocent or guilty, I am not a fan of Dokpesi neither do I watch AIT, I watch Channels TV because they have proven, to me, to be a Station not affiliated to any political party or Tribe but give unbiased report. So my point on this case is based on logic. Nigerians should stop being too emotional on News especially the one surrounding power. A lot of conspiracies go on behind the media Propaganda. bettercreature: 2 Likes |

Ive never heard of a Nigerian Minister of Finance or CBN governor who resigned from office because he/she couldn't carryout the simple instructions of the President. While im not of the opinion that the actions of NOI and Emefiele were legal, one has to consider the fact that the APC at that time were bent on frustrating GEJs war on Boko Haram.Time is critical, sending a request for such huge amount to the National Assembly was going to be met with delays from APC members who will gladly frustrate its passage, and ensure Boko Haram made gains to as to gleeefully report the news through Sahara reporters. I think NOI and Emefiele acted in the interest of Nigeria. Whatever Dasuki did with the money cant be their blame. 10 Likes 2 Shares |
