Leadership (Abuja)
2 November 2009
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has finally broken its silence on allegations by its former boss, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, that he lodged $15million bribe money from former Delta State governor, Chief James Ibori, with the Central Bank of Nigeria.

Well said, Jamodu. What took Waziri this long to confirm Ribadu's claim? Why did Waziri had to wait to get to the US b4 she admitted what's been made public for almost a year now? Madam EFCC is merely show-boating looking for an undeserved pat on the back. Moreover, if Bode George's trial and sentencing sailed forth without delay then how come Ibori, whose theft is even more compelling, still a free man open to boast & roast his former prosecutors? I smell double standards here and the finger points directly at Mr. Ruse of Law - President of Katsina.
Thank God that the truth is now coming out.After removing the Ribadu,I never trust the president and his EFCC leader who turned to award given organisation - hope this will be a turn to better direction.Ibori was said to be a saint, it was reported that Nuhu Ribadu was removed from office for arresting him- who was said to be the financial supporter of the president. Ribadu was demoted, decleared wanted after puting all sorts of charges on him - everything is possible in our great Nigeria.I don't know why most of our leaders cannot be honest for once by caring for the interests of the common people,instead, they only come to power to loot - i always feel bad hearing about the terrible situation in Niger Delta and the country as whole due to corruption.This is why our elections are marred with violence because the winners take all.We prayed that we will be having leaders with the interest of common people in mind. God bless Nigeria. (Read more: http://www.assetrecovery.org/kc/node/b1815de4-26f2-11de-900c-81c63910293a.0 ;jsessionid=004BECF7C778823830FFA19F13AB063B)
When people travel abroad they tend to sing a differnt song (to fit into the new enviroment they find themselves ) forgetting that we the readers are no dounces who will easily forget earlier assertion and fall for such cheap talks. May i ask; is it not this same humanbeing who said that Ibori has no case to answer because there is not in existence any file containing his wrong doing in EFCC office? Now we are hearing a diffirent tune from this spineless diseased liar. Shame on you. You certainly are one of the problems of Nigeria. And if nobody has told you so, let this not be a rude awakening.
