Dokpesi now a Jonathan campaigner
If Nigerians can still be so gullible to be supporting PDP and GEJ after years
of looting and mismanagement of resources....It is only in... will the party that
plunder the nation still be a serious contender in an election." - Idowu
Folks,
The posting from which the foregoing excerpt is extracted can be misleading, very misleading.
PDP remains the only national political party in the nation. The other political parties are either
sole enterprises or partnerships limited by Zone. Yet the political parties are not the problem.
The leaders are. GEJ has just taken over control of PDP leadership to demonstrate business acumen.
So, we talk of, blame or praise leaders, not parties.
Nuhu Ribadu is employed by ACN party to run for the presidency so that the party would collect its
subsidy from INEC. The "yaro" presidential aspirant is not comfortable in this adult presidential robe.
He is still shopping of a running mate! He is not ready for the thorn crown. Watch his face!
ACN, therefore, has no leader! There is a party, but no leader! The leader is the face of the party.
General Buhari's ANPP consisted of followers who found him to be a totalitarian despite being a teetotaler. They abandoned him and he abandoned them! He has now set up another private enterprise he calls CPC and, for want of astute politicians, has picked a Church Pastor as a running mate, drawing his party members from the Sunday school children. You can hear them chanting "Kumbaya!" as a war song to scare PDP, the only political party with nation-wide appeal and membership!
But General Buhari's Church recourse theatrics didn't amuse his long time partner, Barrister Ahamba, SAN.
Finding himself as the last of the Mohicans, Barrister Ahamba gathered his wig and gown and exited without notice. Nobody knew until he was safely home in Mbaise! Buhari's one-man political party is now said to be at the mercy of early release of INEC subsidy to augment the leader's PTF acquisition for its sustenance.
As Nigerians watched during their national party's primaries, the PDP (peace, development and progress) has been taken over by that dynamic personality, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan. As the party leader, President Jonathan has carried out major reforms in the party to turn it around from
Obasanjo's 8-year-mess of the nation.
General Obasanjo was General Buhari's military brother, and birds of identical plumage, they say,
congregate in proximity, and exhibit same manner and behavior.
Before Obasanjo came to mismanage PDP, it was General Buhari who toppled the civilian government of Shegu Shagari and let loose the drum of Indiscipline that radicalized the society and introduced various forms of corruption - financial and moral - the very problem responsible for today's hue and cry and gnashing of teeth.
The problem of Nigeria, therefore, has not been caused so much by civilians and political
parties as by military officers taking over the reigns of government. General Buhari seized
power from Shegu Shagari and General Obasanjo militarized PDP, a political association.
Experience now teaches that Nigerians should have nothing to do with any ex-military junta.
And the nation should be done with military rulers in any shape or form, guise or disguise.
For General Buhari to camouflage his military nature with a Church Pastor as a running mate is the
height of deceit.
Nigerians should reject leadership indiscipline as in the case of General Buhari because it resulted
in mass corruption and destabilization of society. Isn't it contradictory to complain against military
regimes and yet proceed to elect an ex-soldier? And worse, a soldier who was an ex-military head
of state via a military coup d'etat? Men! It shouldn't happen again! This is Nigeria 2011.
So, the fault is never in the party. It is in the leadership.
A coup plotter and a head of state, who himself was overthrown, was never a good leader.
Dr. Jonathan and Architect Sambo are presidential in every respect.
Well educated, highly experienced and of sound leadership judgment.
They have shown promise. Let's rise and place Nigeria in her rightful
place in the comity of DEMOCRATIC nations. The world is watching!
"What the AG wants us to believe is that a huge multinational corporation which wanted contracts in Nigeria, bribed two low level staff assistants and successfully got the Federal Executive Council to approve all the multibillion naira contracts they wanted over the course of several Nigerian governments in sequence. Those 'personal assistants' must be jujumen."-Nowa
The AG is right to have that kind of thought. If Nigerians can still be so gullible to be supporting PDP and GEJ after years looting and mismanagement of our resources. It is only in a mendicant society such Nigeria in a democracy, will the party that plunder the nation will still be a serious contender in an election.
The AG knows that he is dealing with mendicants. Let them continue raping the country without condom.
Adoke with the permission of your boss, whose only interest is to just be elected the president of Nigeria for another 4-years. All the people involved in the bribery are his constituence and supporters.

I still recall your prescient Dokpesi analysis when he was first "accused" of being an Abuja/Oct 1 bomb suspect, complete with frivolous text messages etc...
Now the news is that the same Chief Dokpesi has graduated from SSS Bomb/Terrorism suspect (when he was IBB's Campaign Chief) to Jonathan Presidential campaigner, ostensibly now above all suspicion.
The moment IBB lost the "consensus" vote, the SSS stopped being interested in Dokpesi!
Recall how Marilyn Ogar, the SSS spokesperson, was slapped down by her bosses when she made a slip and publicly said there was no evidence against Dokpesi?
Nigeria we hail thee. Not even Hollywood can beat this.
“All the big names being paraded by the media were not involved in the Halliburton scandal. “Those who were involved never mentioned any big name,” he said.
He, however, said that two aides to two former presidents of the country were involved in the scandal.
“The aides never said that they collected the money for their bosses. Each of them answered his father’s name,” he said.
The minister also said that contrary to media reports that 180 million dollars was given as bribe to influence the award of contracts, only 21 million dollars was actually given.
--Suleiman Adoke AGF, Nigeria
How more brazen can one get?
They all answered their fathers' names as their is no requirement
to formally change one's name just because one is serving as a mule
in an illegal international financial transaction.
Shouldn't the questions be:
1) if they did not collect the funds on behalf of their bosses,
on whose behalf did they receive the money considering it is
unlikely to have been on their own personal recognisanze./
2) if they were not aides to the two formerr heads of state
how could they have gotten close to being recipients of the bribes
from Haliburton?
3) do these minions have bank accounts in which the funds were deposited
either in Nigeria or abroad?
4) if they do what measures have been taken to tracee the final disbursements
of the funds?
Nowa's assessement couldn't be more accurate. We have just witnessed
how anm international cabal composes of few influential men control most of the world's
financial transactions including the legitimate and the fraudulent ones.
It was as Nowa wrote. most likely a quid pro quo. Lay off Cheney and we will
let your big guys go.
This is the way things have always been since the beginning of time.
It is not about to change any time soon.
Dangote, Otedola, Adenuga and Dokpesi--notable Nigerian billionaires have
just signed on to fund GEJ's campaign. Would they be doing so without expecting
future proceeds from their huge investments?
Why is it that the same big name billionaires are also the dead beat debtors
whose unpaid debts led to the collapse of numerous Nigerian banks, which were later rescued with even more public funds?
Are they using the deposits of the common folk to fund GEJ's campaign--assured
they would reap the benefits?
The answers to the above questions are there in the open!
Nigeria does not exit in a vacuum. The hands of the international cabal extend
to every nook and corner of the world.
If you recall I warned back when the Cheney prosecution chess game was in the news that, knowing Nigeria, it was all a game, the other shoe of which would be the exoneration of "notable" Nigerians with a tacit unwritten agreement that the US would not complain publicly once Cheney was let off the hook. It was high level international blackmail.
Those involved knew all along that Hell would freeze over first before Cheney would come to Nigeria for trial. There was never any intention to actually fight corruption. And certainly no intention to prosecute Nigerian "big men"
The next step now is to find a "legal" way to get the "aides" [like OBJ man Bodunde] off the hook with a slap on the wrist (or some sort of pardon), since, according our learned Attorney General, “The aides never said that they collected the money for their bosses. Each of them answered his father’s name,......” REALLY?
Then the whole affair will be forgotten, election deals will be sealed, and Nigerian leaders, politicians and their cronies will keep on taking bribes, ie business as usual
As the Americans say, there is a sucker born every minute.
