ReplyDeleteTrue talk my brother
DeleteLET US SEE THE NAMES OF THESE LOOTERS WHO TURNED NIGERIA UPSIDE DOWN. NOTHING LESS THAN THAT. HOW MUCH EACH STOLE AND HOW MUCH THEY RETURNED. ALL THESE MERE FIGURES WOULDN'T ASSUAGE NIGERIANS. Jay 2, Abuja.
ReplyDeleteThank you anonymous 1:08pm.These people thinks we are fools. All these grammer and propagander and people are suffering and dying. APC is a failure and the worst party and government in the history of Nigeria. Loot loot loot! Na loot go put food for table.Workers are losing their jobs,basic food is out of reach of ordinary Nigeria light is not there as you are insisting on hiking tarrif after doing so to petroleum Haba! Na so be leadership? If all of una no know what to due with power you people should resign en- mass and save this country the continues embarssement. Apc will go down in history as the worst government and party in Nigeria. You telling us about assets seized Many apc members and chieftain are they clean? Loot loot loot and noise all the time. It shows clearly that they are bereft of ideas and policies on how to rule. O to!
ReplyDeleteSTORY! STORY! I thought they said the missing fund is over 50trillion naira? What a wasted year.
ReplyDeleteIlliterate! They didn't say all; they said the amount recovered so far. Sai Baba! I love my president!
DeleteGood move so far. Why are there so called looters still paraded around the country going in and out of court. They where arrested and public fund was recovered from them. Why are they not in jail yet. Is like whoever steal and return his/her loots can go free. Is that the situation of the country now? By now so many of them should be jailed and the key to the cell is stop inside River Niger. Buhari and his minister should tell Nigerians now they intend to use these funds judiciously to start developing the country. Electricity should be his number one priority. If not then he will sure be a failure like other ex President.
ReplyDeleteThis is statement of account and not names of looters pls stop deceiving us. You are a Good president but don't bow to presure.
ReplyDeleteIs this all the money that the entire security apparatus of this nation has spent the last year recovering? This chicken change? If this is the best they can do in a whole year then it's time we shift our focus to something else that can generate revenue for this country rather than wasting funds trying to recover chicken change.
