I still maintain that Nigerian's are like clay in the hands of the potters.

The Chief potter today in Nigeria In looks Yar'adua himself and by implication the most curropt man in Nigeria. If our dearly beloved righteous president could still surround himself with the likes of Maurice Iwu, Andoakan, Farida as people holding key positions in his government and still feel comfrotable.

It may be either that he is short sighted, dumb blind or outrightly the Chief Corrupt officer, Federal republic of Naija.

If he still frolicks with the likes of James Ibori and have as his governors the likes of the present thief in Ekiti; If the president is not perturbed at the performnce of PDP in the last Ekiti re-run; then there is more to the personality of our "president" that is not yet know by the majority of Nigerian.

Why should corruption perpertuation not be on theincrease when you if you are a politician, you are sure of being shielded provided you are a PDP chieftain?

A beg make we no even think of waisting our hard earned oil revenue in 2011 cos we know the way it will go if IWU is still the INEC chief. We might as well ask them to continue. If God has chosen to hear our cry, let Abacha experience re-occur again. PERIOD!

I dont understand what anyone want this author to substantiate. Substantiate has become a new arguement to elude the questions poised here. If anyone wants anything to be substantiated, please click on: http://www.ngex.com/news/public/article.php?ArticleID=720 and find Osondu Onoh´s articule called "The multiple sins of AIG Ribadu". I am positive about the authenticity of the whole affirmation made by this author. This is riddiculuous! How can we ignore the questions raised and attack the credibility of the author.

Some even insinuated that the articule was written by AGF Aondoakaa. You all make me laugh. Nigeria will never change, always avoiding the real questions and raising different issue to elude an answer. This author has writing many articules, more than most of the "go go" boys in here.

Please click to find a few number of his posts: http://www.ngex.com/news/public/aarchive.php?PublisherID=100 Ribadu should give us an answer. I know that he is in London and therefore, can access the internet even from his kitchen.

Ribadu, tell us the truth, where you a part of all these plot???

Nobody should accuse Andoaka (AGF) for this article. The piece was not from the AGF. I know Senior Fyneface as a friend and brother and he lives in Port Harcourt.


He is one independent –minded Nigerian that says what he feels should be said without fear or favour. Anybody doubting this should ask me to link him with this brilliant and no-nonsense Niger Delta man.

The first sentence of the article itself has made the entire nonsense very stupid.

AIG Ribadu did not make himself EFCC chairman and as far as the entire world knows he fought fraudster like you are your so called minister for justice that has become embarrassment to Nigeria, moreover law enforcement agencies around the glob will listen to AIG Ribadu before they even acknowledge Yar'Adua or anyone else in Nigeria when it comes to fighting corruption.


May I also remind the author that Ribadu did not award himself any of the recognition coming from world over. the same can not be said for madam waziri or aenodoka

Who ever the writer is you need to go take some diaria medicine to cleans your system becousre its full of rubish.

Kudos to this writer. He/ She has brought a genuine debate on the true personality of Ribadu and El Rufai.

The debate is genuine because it has always been clamour of support for both fugitive and condemnation to a legitimate democratically elected government. I will like to know the truth from Ribadu and El Rufai.


Although, it doesnt make any difference what they say because, I know that they are both corrupt to the heels.

Agunwa    Lagos, Nigeria    June 09, 2009

This is a good one! Can any of you Obasanjo errand boys and Ribadu blind followers in this forum refute any of the above serious allegations?

Unfortunately, this news media has chosen to systematically, uplift Ribadu´s cause and forward his hidden political agenda. They chose news of Ribadu that sooths their face lift plan of Ribadu and El Rufai. I did not read in any of this media publication Ribadu´s press conference at London Metropolitan University where he was rescued by Femi Falana from some aggrieved Nigerians who wanted to know Ribadu´s role during the Obasanjo´s extravagante third term project.

This media did not inform us about that development for reasons best know to it´s administrators. I happened to be on a visit to London and witnessed the whole episode. I must confess to you all, Ribadu cannot handle any falsehood. He is too innocent to carry the whole burden they are laying on him. The burden of misleading others or playing the good guy.

He was close to confessing, almost broken in tears when Femi Falana abruptly waged in to use the typical finger pointing to rescue Ribadu and depriving Nigerians of the golden opportunity to know the truth.

Sincerly speaking, Ribadu has a lot to confess, he did wrong, but now, I do not believe he is as arrogant and fraudulent as he try to make us believe. Ribadu can be good, but he needs to confess everything that went wrong. Ribadu should not take his secrets to the grave.I said it before and I say it again, Ribadu should not sacrifice himself in order to shield Obasanjo from prosecution.

It is curious that the writer of this 'revealing piece' chose to hide his real identity. He just managed to fling far-reaching accusations without any attempt at substantiating any of them. I must admit that Mike Aaondoaka is a rugged fighter.

But sometimes these tactics do fly back into the face of the person that use them. From this piece, the PDP primary is a void, the 2007 general elections is void, as is the court ruling that legitimised Ya'aradua's election.

If this writer had all these 'overwhelming evidence,' it baffles the psyche why he chose to stand aside and watch the bastardisation of our nation. I sincerely hope that Agunwa has no hand in the cooking of this poisonous delicacy, a sure product of hate.

Tony Mustaph    London, UK    June 09, 2009

This could have been a good article if it was based on facts but it was based on rumour, hearsay and wishful thinking. The writer and that Agunwa should learn like most nigerians to started living in post-OBJ Nigeria. Whatever mistakes, errors or ommision Obasanjo did is longer his problems. It is up to you all now to find your saviour.

Calling Rufail and Ribadu OBJ's errant boys is not only insulting but but deserving to the nation. Mr. Agunwa, not only you can not achieve what the two people achieved in their choosen careers, you can not find any person that will equal them in commitement and achievement in Government.

We should learn to appreciate people who give it all to serve the nation. It unfortunate that corrupt governors that we praise and worship like gods.

HENRY    DALLAS, USA/NIGERIA    June 09, 2009

I wonder how this aurthur would write an article that he is not sure of. Just read his sentences "This EFCC investigative report is currently somewhere between the custody of the new EFCC boss and the Presidency. It may also be used in addition to newly generated facts as a bait to blackmail Iwu and force him to compromise again in 2011.

How long can this nation afford move in this vicious circle of fraud that has only produced lame dog presidents, governors, local government chairmen and even federal lawmakers?

He just wrote pieces of materials that he never substantiated. When you make accusations, back your accusations with facts.

Agunwa    Lagos, Nigeria    June 09, 2009

Val and Tony! Welcome to the reality of the defeated. Pointing fingers and accusing someone falsely is what you riddiculously know how to do. Now, the problem is the name or real identity of the author of this articule.

When others go by the name "wakabout" and other meaningless taggs, you reffer to them as "intellectuals". If Obasanjo´s errors are the thing of the past, why do you insist on incriminating some ex-governors with cooked up evidence?

You know who is the king of evidence falsification? Ribadu. The crown county court in London has demonstrated that Ribadu is such a dubious person. The same arguements you used to "clear" Obasanjo and his cronies of any corrupt practices.

You claimed that no accusation was "sustanciated". Now, why are you all hidding in the UK? Why is Ribadu and El Rufai hidding from justice? All civil rights advocates stay in their countries are unjustly jailed while their cause are projected and carried to the light by collegues. The new Zimbabwen prime minister remain in Zimbabwe, was arrested, beaten, humiliated but finally won his fight.

Why is Ribadu and El Rufai hidding in foreign nations? WHy are they not giving answers to these questions? Why are they not coming forward with some clarifications? Shame on you Val and Tony for being the advocates of misleading , gangs of thieves.

Remain with your ignorance or deliberate intent to decieve other Nigerians. Nigerians deserve some answers. Ribadu and El Rufai have them....
