IamaNigerianGuy:what you are expecting the person you just called names was exactly what happened in the last administration that gave that Diezeni to empty the account, and that is exactly what the man you called clueless is trying to avoid. 1 Like |

Jessewizy: Whether it took Baru 1 day, 1 week or 1 month to come up with a response is not the issue. ![]() Afterall, the things Baru did as GMD NNPC, were the same things Kachikwu did when he was also GMD. The same way contracts were approved at GMD level, was the same way it was done when Kachikwu was still GMD NNPC. The same powers Kachikwu had as GMD NNPC when he was still there, are the same powers Baru has now chosen to exercise, in his new role as GMD. If you notice, most of the approvals came from Buhari in his capacity as substantive Petroleum Minister, President and Head of FEC. Kachikwu ironically was part of the same FEC that approved some of those contracts, so how can he now turn round to say he knows nothing about it? After becoming Minister of State, Kachikwu felt some of his powers had been taken away, and so he drafted that memo. The truth is that the NNPC Act does not grant any substantial powers to the Minister-Of-State. And that is what now needs to be addressed. Please learn to be more polite, when engaging others. There was absolutely no need to use the word 'trash!' 5 Likes 1 Share |

brainpulse: In my opinion, it is disgusting to read that a Minister of state has no input on contracts awarded by an agency he has oversight roles in. If the NNPC is taking a contract to FEC, who takes it? Buhari himself? What then is the role of the Minister of state when the Minister himself has too many roles. This Minister of state is the immediate past GMD and has done such duties and set some of the rules, how come he is making baseless accusations on things he has firstclass experience in? I know when i am being lied to. Besides, if the GMD and his GED's are the ones who make up the NNPC tenders board, it means they hold both the cake and the knife. Of course the group will cut themselves big pieces without anyone's interruption. Diezanni or Baru can award whatever contract they want and how they want it. Its mind boggling. 1 Like |

OwoLee: That would be even more damning because by that, he will throw himself to the wolves. In nigeria, you are only as effective as when you office. Outside, na rubbish them go they rubbish you and you can't do anything as you can't influence anything. For his life, the best thing is just let sleeping dogs lie and accept his irrelevance in the oil and gas sector. Enjoy what has so far and what he is now. I didn't expect anything else from Bari. He only responds to two people, The minister for petroleum and the president, fortunately, one man doubles as both so he is on a vantage point. I believe the is more under the carpet but let's see how things unfold |

I was waiting to hear when buhari will send his attack dogs (EFCC & DSS) to arrest Baru and detain him until he's proven innocent like in the case of dasuki and many others that were given media trial and prosecution but no, he kept quiet and only to come up now and bring this cooked up damage control shit. Buhari is the real corrupt animal here. 1 Like |

I think the problem is Baru no get respect because from the look of things he followed due process but sidelining Kachikwu and working directly with their principal which is Buhari. It's not fair. |

After thoroughly reading this response it is pertinent to call it a TKO(technical knock out) by Baru. The BPP expressly clarified that NNPC Tenders Board (NTB) is NOT the same as NNPC Board. The governing board (NNPC Board) is responsible for approval of work programmes, corporate plans and budgets, while the NTB is responsible for approval of day-to-day procurement implementation. How come kachikwu failed to understand the limit of his power but went ahead to accuse the GMD of awarding illegal contracts thereby making people believed his allegations? The onus is on him to either go with the flow as a used and dumped figurehead minister without portfolio who can only have a say at the discretion of the president or he resign lest those now in control of NNPC disgrace him out of office. But I hope this matter will not disrupt those reforms he initiated for a better oil and gas industry. So Kachikwu you've got anymore to say? over to you. 2 Likes |

CeterisXVII: You are being smart by half. Based on what Baru wrote above he did not even need PMBs consent in the contract approvals as the Minister (whether State or Substantial) has no say in that aspect. The Minister is not even part of the NNPC Tenders board. If this does not make you cringe and think - nothing else will. |

adanny01: This is exactly what I said earlier. What people don't see as flagrant disrespect and insubordination on Baru's part is, he did not even need to pass the contracts through the President so why then did he do it? 1 Like |

Eruditor:Did Baru's comments cause you pain? Is that why you lashed out? You really do need to go back and read his submission all over again. He listed out each contract, and stated who gave the approvals, one after the other. He even sought clarification from the BPP. Now, please go cringe somewhere and try to think deeply, if you can. It appears you have not done much of that lately. |

TheFreeOne:Yeah, you hit the nail on the head... let us hope others would see the truth. Unfortunately, the NNPC Act makes no provision for a Minister of State. Kachikwu has discovered this, the hard way. |

agabusta:Northerners go to school to acquire vknowledge, while southerners go to school to acquires certificate. No wonder they (Southerners) become so redundant as as they are unable to secure a job after schools. Imagine! Kachikwu was complaining like a market woman. Kachiukwu was either mischievous or ignorant of the law that regulates the activities of nnpc. To show that baru was indenpent minded, when confronted with the president or law, he chose the later, because law is supreme. With the display of kachiukwu, he would chosen the president, truly the attribute of a sycophant. Northerners don't read PhD because they want to add it to their academic achievement, they read PhD because they want to create impact in the society. When next you come across an Hausa man with PhD respect him. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Newbiee: Indeed, after reading this one can only but say that Kachikwu just finished rubbishing himself; he must have been aware of the enabling laws/guidelines, benefited from same while he doubled as Jr. Minister/GMD; yet turned around and hypocritically complain about another similarly being guided by the same rules. Unfortunately, he not only ridiculed the govt he is currently serving but has completely ruined his own reputation; shaming his supporters along with regional and tribal jingoists wishing to capitalise on such opportunity in order to tarnish the president's image. Kachikwu has sadly emerged from this as a hypocrite, a sour loser and non a team player who foolishly expects rules he once enjoyed be pulled down and remoulded according to his inflated ego - if I were Buhari, his days in this cabinet should be numbered. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

[quote author=goodnews777 post=61251425]Baru is an accredited thief. See how long it took him to figure out what to say? He employed expert cover ups to do the dirty job for him. God will surely purnish these idiots who think Nigerians are morons.[/quote) Before we start jumping into conclusions why don't we wait for independent observers to investigate claims from both side and determine the mischievous party here. |
