Anti-Corruption Group Storms Ministry Finance To Demand Removal Of Ngozi Okonjo Iweala Over Oil Subsidy Payment Scams
Executive Secretary of the Anti Corruption Network Dino Melaye yesterday led hundreds of protesters to demand for the sack of the coordinating minister of the economy & the Minister of finance, Ngozi Okonjo -Iweala.
The group accused the minister of engaging in fraudulent payments to oil marketers despite revelation to the effect that some of them are not registered to carry out businesses in Nigeria.
I like the outright spoken
I like the outright spoken but where are these facts. Please forward to my email. Thank you and again I admire your writing voice.
I am worried with level of
I am worried with level of dissensus exhibited by Nigerian youth over triviality while loosing focus on the main problem (corruption). It is unfortunate that this subsistence attitude is a commonality of our esteemed youths. Why would region and religion becloud our judgement? It is the youth that have no future not the the politician. Ngozi made Nigeria pay money that not even the United state of America ever paid the IMF for our debt relieve. The question is are we outta of dept today? If she felt relieve was necessary why will she be in this Government and be a party to borrowing? I really cant understand her patriotism. I believe Obasanjo has given Nigeria youth a food for thought. Revolution or this callousness won't stop.
@ Deri
My brother, this is the country we all claim to love and probably allude to the fact that "though tribe and tongue may differ, in brotherhood we stand". The lady will finish her term with bro Jonathan and will continue should Jonathan decides to go for one more round.
AIN'T NOBODY HERE BUT US CHICKENS
TO BE FOREWARNED IS TO BE FOREARMED It is very sad that this poor old lady would have to pay for the ignominious deeds attributable to, or laid at her daughter's feet Less than a week ago I warned that Ngozi should put daylight between herself and Diezani Alison-Madueke. The subject at the time was un-necessary PANDERING to Stockbrokers, who in turn would be expected to PANDER in kind to Ngozi. Meanwhile, little is said or heard about the rest of us, INVESTORS, who lost OUR SHIRTS, for supporting the ECONOMY. The friendship with Diezani was becoming TOXIC; OPPRESSORS felt they needed to be heard. Now that suffering Nigerians are reacting in this foulest of ways, I can only HOPE that she will mend her ways, at least for her mother's sake. I APPEAL TO OUR WRONGED BROTHERS TO RELEASE MAMA FORTHWITH. SHE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CORRUPTION IN HIGH PLACES, OTHER THAN BEING A MOTHER TO A CHILD WHO IS BEING LED ASTRAY.RELEASE HER NOW! NOW, A BEG. CHICKENS ARE COMING HOME TO ROOST
U must very stupid you are
U must very stupid
you are mad,who are that talking nonsess with Dino
becarefu
I CONCURR, OSITA!
"The lack of positive strategic thinking,lack of vision,and outright selfish and wicked wasteful spending is the main reason why Nigeria will keep going round in circles,Okonjo-Iweala's strategy can only make sense where there is fiscal discipline on all levels of governance."
NGOZI'S LOGIC DOES NOT MAKE SENSE, IT CALLS TO QUESTION HER EXPERTISE. ANYBODY WHO WILL LOOK AT THE PRICE OF FUEL IN 2010, LOOK AWAY FROM THE REASONS WHY THE FUEL WAS SO EXPENSIVE, AND TURN AROUND AND PRESCRIBE A FUEL PRICE HIKE ON THE PRETENSE THAT FUEL IS UNSUSTAINABLY CHEAP, IN AN ECONOMY LIKE NIGERIA'S THAT RELIES 99% ON FUEL PRICE, IS EITHER STUPID OR A BOLT IS LOOSE IN HIS BRAIN.
I HAD NO RESPECT FOR NGOZI FOR THE FACT THAT SHE WORKED FOR THE WORLD BANK, AN ORGANIZATION CREDITED WITH CHURNING OUT POLICIES THAT SERVE TO IMPOVERISH THE DEVELOPING COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD. THE ONLY SUCCESSFUL ECONOMIES IN THE 3RD WORLD ARE THOSE WHO REBEL AGAINST THE WORLD BANK POLICIES.
"Those who go to equity must go with clean hands" - Anonym
Dino Maleye is a crook, and like a prostitute in a court of law, his views are not welcome. Like Falana, he is becoming a clown for propaganda. His disgraceful gathering of "Area Thugs" and bussing them to the Ministry of Finance is nothing but pandering to the gallery. A thief with misplaced priorities who ought to know that Dr. NOI is not the Petroleum Minister, neither is she the President, then why take the fight to her doormot? Maleye can better expand his widow's might at the Rock calling for full implementation of the Ribadu report, finding the Lawal-Otedola bribery loot, searching for the Haliburton bribery money that disappeared, and a whale of other meaningful things than beating empty drums in front of the only Minister that has actually acted against the oil thieves. Stupid fool, Maleye!
@Delta Queen : Eat your heart out, Lady Iweala remains the best Africa has to offer. She's the only flicker of light in your "bro Jona's" dark tunnel. So, STFU !
Reply to Deri comment.
Deri you're a pathetic case. GEJ should have employed into Dr. Okupe's hounds-dog job. Your jaundiced parochial jingoism could be annoying. You pathetcally expect al other sane Nigerians to join you in you tomfoolery and go along deifying your god because the dumb president is from your town. You ss or se as u call your side of the country, have just waisted a golden opportunity to feild one of your best so in some years to come when the rotation offers u another opportunity, Nigerians wont say Godforbid.The people from that area are bereft of ideas. GEJ could possibly be good at following leaders. He is definitely not the one for leadership Where were you when all the yorubas were rejecting OBJ as yoruba choice for presidency.But your idol GEJ has made OBJ appear to be much best president since the return to civil rule.
dis madness has to stop..who
dis madness has to stop..who is dis DERI OF A GUY...d biggest fool in town.
HOW DO WE END OF UP WITH DIS PPLE AS OUR LEADER...NGOZI IS PART OF THE MAD GANG RULLING US,WE NEED TO BE ANGRY ENOUGH TO CHASE DIS GOAT OUT IN 2015.HOW DO WE END UP WITH A PRESIDENT WHO CHOOSE HIS MISTRESS AS A MINISTER OR ONE OF HIS ASEWO BCOMING A MINISTER...ENOUGH OF THIS MADNESS.
JONANTHAN AND IWEALA ARE ONE AND THE SAME
Iweala is the engine that drives Jonanthan economic policies. You can't separate the two, they are one and the same. If you think the president is doing a lousy job on the economic front, then you must hold Iweala responsible for the failure, period! If you think that Jonanthan is corrupt, you can't absolve his economic minister, period! Jonanthan critics want to have it both ways, they say the preident is corrupt but his economic coordinator is a saint. The economy of the country is in the tank but they think the minister is doing a great job. These sentiments are driven purely by ehnicity and that is why we can't accomplish anything in our nation. As for Dino, Dino who??
Kabir, just comment on Boko
Kabir, just comment on Boko Haram, you have expertise in that are, not what Okonjo-Iweala and GEJ are doing. Take the moth out of the eyes of northern governors first, who is more corrupt than them?
Biafra
@ Deri, what do you think of this subject?
Can any sane human in 9ja trust his even his grand- mom wit Dino
A man like Dino whose god father Tinubu, have been bank rolling his activities, has no moral right to even discuss the issue of corruption in 9ja. Once you align your thoughts to a given political party such as the thieves in ACN-u have no right to talk about corruption-That is why Dino should go search for a cure for the spirit of womanizing disturbing his soul. Instead of embarking on a project sponsored by Tinubu in abuja for Buhari! How can a man like Dino be allowed to hang around under aged girl 4 a second-he will impregnant them within seconds. Or be trusted with the care of our grand moms-in an old peoples home? Not to talk of leading a protest for Buhari and Tinubu. Rueben Abati works with Jonah, trouble-Ngozi trouble Doyin akupe trouble! Deri wahala! Yesterday they distanced themselves from Ribadu and told us he was on his own-some even said Johan bribed him-now case has changed-Ribadu is the darling of ACN. No longer d Mitt Romney of Tinubus ACN.
Nigeria isn't a Country. It's a Continent. Break up now!
...all these struggles and fight for the wealth of the Republic of the Niger Delta and South South peoples can only be ephemeral.
Only a fool, a very big one, who will not see the handwriting on the wall...that the countries of the SS are not willing to remain in the continent any longer than the end of the administration of Great Jona.
What country will it be when the constitution is skewed to favour the Hausa, Ibo or Yoruba by zoning presidency to North & South. This is criminal & deliberate. We the SS peoples will NOT accept it. What is ideal is that rotation of power be amongst the six geo-political countries of the continent. In that way, the SS citizen will be assured that he will have the opportunity unlike Jona who got there after the death of Yar adua.
Verily verily I say unto you, Nigeria is not a country but a continent.Break up NOW!!
Long live the peoples Republic of the SS & SE.
Why now
The call for Ngozi,s removal came so late. I ask why now. I know she was planted by IMF and world bank to do their dirty job but I don't thinks she more corrupt than Madueke. Any way let her go so we will not have anybody to advise Jonathan on fuel subsidy removal again
Right motive, Wrong target
Methinks this protest should be at Asorock or NASS. Ngozi will not sack herself nor resign....and anyway, till the courts make pronouncements of guilt or innocence, the fuel import business must go on if the country will not be thrown into endless fuel scarcity. Ngozi is only paying for fuel imports that have been verified by her ministry which wasn't the case before. Until the courts expeditiously dispose of cases pending interminably before them, we will continue doing business with the alleged fuel fraudsters. It's a shame but the reality nonetheless.
Ngozi was d best with OBJ-now d worst with Ijaw man Jonah
They are never worried at the number of humans killed daily by Boko Haram! Ask them why? They will tell u its the wahala of GEJ, his Ijaw brothers dance band and the security agencies of 9ja. ACN would rather hoist the flag of boko haram over the head of Buhari, than plead with him to talk to his boys in boko Haram. Why cause they still remember the route Lord Lugard took from the desert to their homes in the former regions. So they still believe we the talakawas, whose consent was not sort before the Brits lowered their flag, have no right to aspire to control our own destinies in the SS. The population of Kuwait is less than one million! We are over 155m. All depending on the resources of d SS, for survival. If this protest is not about greed, then tell me why the opposition has not been able to mobilize their so called supporters to protest against the murder of 9jas in the Fulani North by BH-May be that was why we did not see them cry when Ken Saro Wiwa was hanged! Just may be-
our mama put polticians-& DEM devourers are out again
Is Ngozi our major problem now? 9jas have stolen well over 55 trillion Naira from the oil revenue base of the SS since 1958. None had the courage to call for fiscal federalism or resource control or the sack of Ngozi when she was with OBJ. Rather she was hailed as the best! Now she is with Ijaw Jonah, trouble has started! Cause we did not hear the voice of these hired protesters when 9ja was forced to use revenue from the oil wind fall, to settle debts owned the Paris club. Not a penny of that loan was used for the benefit of the oil bearing communities in d SS. But we had to pay for the crimes of the thieves from the old region! None took to the streets of Abuja when Boko haram murdered hundreds of church goers including global civil servants @ d UN office in abuja. But can print T shirts with money stolen from the revenue centre of the SS-to scare & deceive the masses! Time for us to split-go the way of the Soviet Union instead of this tinubu ACN and buhari CPC controlled rubbish!
who is your pay master
who is your pay master
Hi
if they can do that it will be good
Malaye is a crook
How can Malaye turn himself to an activist? Has he finished and done with the person he impregnated? We need to start asking question.
Joblessness
I think we still have Jobless folks. what actually are they asking for
Ngozi has remained in govt
Ngozi has remained in govt long enough and yet she sees no evil. All the rot in the petrol industry iis thick enough for the blind to see. She is part of the system, the cabal and is there to give expert cover to the boys as they steal the treasury dry.
School-boy type of protest
Dino Maleye has suddenly turned rabble-rouser! Since his encounter with the girlfriend he made pregnant and dumped, I have come to see him as a dishonourable man. His grouse with Okonjo-Iweala in this case was that she paid some unregistered oil marketers. But Maleye did not show she benefited from such a payment! Would Maleye who had been a member of the House of Reps look people in the eye and swear that Okonjo-Iweala just on her own effected these payments without clearance from her boss? We know that there is corruption in govt. but one expects Maleye to be knowledgeable enough to know how to properly package corruption matters in order to make any activist move against graft more effective and reasonable. Otherwise if Maleye has any personal difference with Okonjo-Iweala he must not make it public or use puerile type of agitation as this one to foster such.
THE HOUSE WILL SOON FALL.
This house of corruption wlli soon fall. And the fisherman will go home with his thieving crowd. This mishap/madness called 'Nigerian Democracy' can't be for long.
And the rouges in government will be disgraced together with their family members.
The clock is ticking. Think of a country where P.hD , Masters and Degree holders are applying to be drivers. And the Commander in Aso Rock and the Rouges in various Government Houses In the states are falling over themselves buying jets to fly around the globe?
The Queen of England has no private jet attached to herself.
But in Nigeria, NNPC has jets for the Minister of Petroluem. So to the CBN governor, Costoms Boss etc.
The British Prime Minister has no aircraft attached to his office but our Jona has ELEVEN aircrafts while there is no National carrier. He bought three since he became president.
Dino WHO
Breathren which Dino is fghting corruption. This man needs to be charged alongside Lawangate and others in the H/R. Those who go to equity must go with clean hands.
DINO MELAYE JUST SEEKING ATTENTION!
Okonjo-Iweala should go??? Then the country is finished! Why should you, Dino and your hungry boys, say ''she can't be saving money when Nigerians are hungry"? Leave the money there if it must end in corrupt pockets as usual! Nonsense protest by an attention-seeker!
Is that Dino Maleye?
Is that Dino Maleye? this dude is now a nuisance....he takes away any credibility from any group he joins or founded. This group should detach itself from this crook and then we will listen and support you. Otherwise, Iweala will look like a saint compared to you.
the crowd following Dino
the crowd following Dino around must rly be crazy. Hw on earth can they not reason properly when the so called anti-corruption champion is jst frustrated and is becoming broke.... I hate that enzyme called DINO.
