There heavy Moles in the presidency, this instruction was given 4 hours ago and it is already in the hands of APC... na woooo #bringbackourgirls
ReplyDeleteMr Man, do you need glasses?
Deleteis 19th of february 4 hrs ago?
Jonathan is finished. He can investigate Obanikoro but he can investigate the opposition. Your own don spoil
ReplyDeleteSerious huge moles! Mehn! This country is B.S! And when things don't go as planned they blame it on the president meanwhile, people are deliberately working against him.
ReplyDeleteWas he dumb and blind when he put them there serves him right he prefers people telling him lies than the truth
DeleteThe presidency needs to note that no matter the intimidation Nigerians can never be deterred from carrying their rights and the order by he presidency to investigate the likes of Atiku and some members of the opposition will not save him Jonathan from defeat.
ReplyDeleteThis president must be plain stupid to direct that someone outside his inner circle be investigated when he is the most corrupt person in the African continent. Also, is this how EFCC works, taking their direction from the president? That body as it is now, is worthless.

ReplyDeleteThat is fake ooo! Can't you guys see! The A and B were signed by same person! And that is not the letterhead of Chief of staff! It's fraud! Kai! Guillibel nigerians! What lenght wouldn't APC go! Haba! Even the letter was folded like one school paper! Memos are carried in files or envelopes! That ain't the letterhead of C of S. It comes with a green seal with the coat of arms and typed Ref number! Haba!
ReplyDeleteTransparent illiterate change doesn't exist in your life so remain there
DeleteMr Anon, 3.40pm. you are a paid PDP Troll, in your rush to discredit the letter, you made many spelling mistakes. (Guillibe,lenght). it is a photocopy, there is no way the original would be pictured. a copy was obviously leaked out.
DeleteShame on PDP., Shame on You
@ Anonym 4:55 and 7:59; both of u are brainless.
DeleteI see nothing wrong in this report. The Govt has the right to investigate upon any citizens of the Federal republic of Nigeria at will. Especially if the characters of those are susceptible to crime. Mind you, your guilty unless proven innocent.
ReplyDeleteYes my dear! Do you mind some fools that follow people as if they are their gods! Cult followership! Aside that the letter is fake! Orchestrated by same apc! Haba! Naija which way!

DeleteOlodo, it is ur Innocent until Proven Guilty, and must they be investigated now, a few days before the elections? Grow some balls and ask your President why our economy has collapsed, why we lost part of our territory, what happened to all the people that stole subsidy money, how come our external reserves are depleted, why he didnt save for the rainy day when oil prices were up. Ask him questions!!!
Delete@ anonymous 3:40, I guess u need a pair of glasses, both A and B re signed by different person moreso, do u expect d leaked document to b original copy?, it can only come in photocopy and if I may ask u did u work in d presidency for u to have acknowledge dat d letterhead paper is not for d presidency. Think b4 u talk man, dis is simply an act of shame from d PDP and d presidency.
ReplyDeleteLaksy. I think you need the glasses more than anybody here to know that such letter is fake. Same way APC told Nigerians Buhari had an interview in London meanwhile it was in transcorp building. If not for the help of Fayose Nigerians would have been mislead by such lie from APC. The truth be told. That letter is fake. Please carry out a research of letters from C of S. Then you know that letter is another blatant lies from APC. It's #GEJTILL2019
DeleteEBOSE or wat the hell u called urself u just handed ur generation i mean u and ur children to hardship till 2019 idiot.
DeleteGod bless you. You Don't even have a name, no face. So shall you and your generation live in darkness forever. Say Amen to that please.
DeleteStory story. APC at it again! . Are you talking to kids. How will there be official correspondence between the presidency and EFCC instructing who to investigate?, is it to the legal duty of the commission to investigate anyone? . Please tell this to the dogs, you can deceive us, propaganda machine

ReplyDeleteThe PDP is getting good at denying everything, even hen they have been caught out. This is not someone saying GEJ has given instructions to go after APC Members, it is backed with picture evidence but they will still deny. Remember the ekiti tape? first they denied, then they deied the context. The Main actor was just confirmed Minister. You want to trust that kind of Party?
ReplyDeleteAnd you want Nigerians to trust a man who can't provide his certificate? He went to London what stop him from coming back with his result from Cambridge? Is it the lies that he took loan from the bank to purchase hos nomination form while is wife gave out 135m? Or is it that lies that he was interviewed in Transcorp hotel in Nigeria and APC said it was in London? He went to London for medical checkup and went for election campaign in Chatham where nobody there can vote for him.....Doing all that to cover up his track that he is sick and not fit to rule the country? Why would APC throw stones when they all live in a glass house?? It's #GEJTILL2019
DeleteMr Prince, No matter how much you cry, it will not work, We will vote GMB/PYO. Thank God they are not investigating Buhari and Osinbajo, they know they will not find anything. Awon desperados.
DeleteEBOSE u are an idiot like the last prs called u i just confirmed it now.
DeleteThe end justify the means. You all can say all you wan to say now. Call me names or whatever. You all are so blind and foolish you don't know your right from left. May your lives be run same way Buhari ruled this country during his military regime. Bunch of fools and sentimental animals.
DeleteHmm... What a prayer. And may yours be run the same way GEJ has done in this country for 6years. I hope you are bold enough to say amen to that. I honestly reject that prayer for you. Don't let us be sentimental about issues and end up insulting ourselves over politicians that hate you and see you as tools to achieve their aim. Vote based on your conscience and the leader you feel would take you and your country to greater heights and fulfill their electoral promises. Truth is, time will tell if that letter from the presidency is fake. I have heard enough lies from them to make me believe what they say... Call to Morocco, APC caused fuel scarcity, ekitigate didn't happen, chibok girls weren't kidnapped, Buhari is sick, Buhari won't speak at Chatham, too many lies for a responsible government.
DeleteEbose why are you so illogical. You have d right to doubt and criticise but you cannot say Buhari lied and went to Ttanscorp hotel instead of London but at d same time criticise him for going for medical check up in London. You either accept that he actually went to London and Fayose lied or he did not go for medical chevk up and your premise for doubting his health is false.You cant be right both ways.
Deletehaba apc again? i am surprise that some persons can fall for this dull, cheap, lies. letter from presidency to efcc leaked na wa oh... APC is scared, they are currupt. were did tinubu got money to buy two private jet?
ReplyDeleteThe APC never said they had the meeting, You the PDP started that, PDP started by saying he met with Arabs to raise funds, then it was the hospital, now it was to sign a gay pact with world leaders. You guys should get a life this man his spotless.
ReplyDeleteHe has scaled all your hurdles of Lies, we will vote for him come March 28.
No Certificate.... Scale
Too Old..... Scale
Religion......Scale

Military record......Scale
Useless? Foolish are at it again. Can't they stop wmbarrassing Nigeria. March4Buhari
ReplyDeleteFoolish stupid PDP are at it again. Can't they stop deceiving Nigerians. Nothing is stopping dis change. Sai Buhari
ReplyDeleteIf PDP likes, it shld arrest all APC leaders, nothing is stopping dis change. Sai Baba
ReplyDeleteMr Jonadaft, Investigate all you want, we will vote Buhari/Osinbajo. those people in your list are not even on the ballot.
ReplyDeleteApc no dey tire o...weda fake or real r u pple afraid tinubu and his corrupt friends r in trouble..GMB nd co
ReplyDeleteThe real enemies of Mr. President are within his government and PDP. Jonathan is reaping the bitter fruits of his appointment of sycophants in high places.
ReplyDeleteTo clandestnely investigate .thats not govt language ,the document is fake ,APC produced fake BUhari cert,there is nothing they will not do .to them this election is war and propaganda is part of war tactics
ReplyDeleteNigeria like to make Noise... why no wait on March 28. B4 you begin they bark like Toothless Bull Dog. i NO see GMB stopping GEJ
