I am not surprised at all. Gowon's regime was the most corrupt in Nigeria's history. IBB's regime is second |

rossniti: Oga this is our problem. The British never stole from us, they only signed treaties with our myopic rulers at that time who didn't know the value of what they had. Mind you if they had fully discovered and explored oil before independence, they wouldn't have let us go. Since then, what have we done with our oil? |
Re: UK Parliament: Gowon Stole Money 'Half Of The Central Bank Of Nigeria' by Nobody: 9:11am On Nov 24, 2020 |
McTominay: Actually the British discovered oil before independence. In 1956 . |

The succession of military government was characterized by looting and embezzlement. The nation was ran to the ground, and each successive government contribute their share towards plundering the economy. But when we thought we've seen the worst under military government, the civilian came and take the barbarism to higher level. Whatever corruption witnessed under gowon could not match what played out during Shagari civilian regime. The minister of finance, Umaru Dikko stole an amount so huge that when Buhari attempted to extradite him form trial by injecting him with sleep dose and wrapped him in a parcel, in a fair mission |

Re: UK Parliament: Gowon Stole Money 'Half Of The Central Bank Of Nigeria' by Nobody: 9:17am On Nov 24, 2020 |
McTominay: Quite a lot. With potential for more Plus at the time the UK also bought our agricultural and solid minerals more. Oil was just a top up. Even if we did not have oil the Brits would have still found it hard to let go |

Neddstark:you don't know what you are saying.... How did IBB moved Nigeria's money? How did Abacha moved Nigeria's money? Even part of the Abacha money that was recovered was also reloooted by Buhari and his cronies Those national hoodlums |

The final truth be say.... Person wey know you, na him go do you pass. Our so called brothers in power, those people are worst than demons; and if we think killing them and bringing a new generation of leaders will change us, then we're digging deeper into the trap that will consume us |

BreconHills: I they shame for you I swear. Let's say the same of Abacha.... How could Abacha have stolen, taken Nigeria's money to Swiss when he died on the 8th of June abi July sef of 1998? But also have it in mind that he ruled for 5 years, from 1993 to 1998. 1 Like |

PhiliptheArab: Gaddafi is dead. He has nothing to win or lose anymore. He is history and the people have moved on. Libyans are the ones suffering, being killed being ruled by warlords. Now I want to ask you if Mandela chose on the bloody revolution against white south Africa, would SA be any better today? |

Neddstark: Yes but if he had democratised earlier the condtions that caused the revolution to develop might not have happened One problem i have with many african leaders is that they oftentimes fail to anticipate problems. Like if Buhari had sorted out the Sars thing from the word go in 2015 for example, would there have been the endsars protests? Maybe the dead at lekki would have been alive. And yes, Mandela did the right thing. |
Re: UK Parliament: Gowon Stole Money 'Half Of The Central Bank Of Nigeria' by Reference(m): 9:30am On Nov 24, 2020 |
Yeah. My dad told me this story many years back, I would say very reluctantly. Was common knowledge amongst those of them working in the UK during the civil war. Many, many things happened that Nigerians are unaware about before, during and after the war about people some of whom are considered national heroes today. Today I know more about the First and Second World wars, the Korean War and the Vietnam war than the Civil War in my country. We are a nation of deep historical deficit. We know very little about this country called Nigeria, her history and her people. Little wonder we keep stumbling. There is nothing to learn from. |

Timoleon: And if Ghaddafi had democratised earlier he would have been revered as a statesman Instead he sat tight in power. And it created a nidus of bitterness for the CIA and others to exploit when the time came. |
