Politics of Nigeria. Presidential candidates choose their running mates for loyalty but in Nigeria it is hand picked under tribal duress. Obasanjo did not pick Atiku and if he did, it is only to appease the North. The fracass between Obasanjo and Atiku is about to take a U turn to maximum over drive. This might be good for the people. "Here goes the war on corruption". Stay tune, the worst is yet to come.

Now that that Obasanjo's days in aso rock are numbered, he will learn the lesson of the man who failed to preserve his own home. So he could return himself to power, Obasanjo knelt before Atiku to get Atiku's backing for a second term. Then, Obasanjo destroyed the Yoruba political party, AD. Obasanjo is a major suspect in the murder of Bola Ige.
The Gods of Yorubaland are not happy with Aremu. When the Arewa come to deal with their errand boy, Yoruba will have no reason to rise and fight. Matthew Aremu Obasanjo will be on his own.

Well, let call this an over due confession. In Igbo land we call it "Isa na onu" which usually happens when one of those wicked old men poison's someone for no reason. Then right before they pass, you here them begin to confess (Isa na onu). This is exactly what is going on here.
In a way I sort of admire Obsanjo’s guts! He has just cracked the door and it’s now left for others to blow it wide open even it ends up tarnishing his image. We all know this it the tip of the ice berg and a lot of those untouchables are pretty nervous.
Here they are throwing around mind norming figures....Billions, while children of that country dying of simple curable illnesses. They should be charged with murder for all those who died in traffic accident on grossly neglected highways of that country.
They should be charged with murder of all the deaths resulting from neglected hospitals and dilapidated health care system. In one of these confessions I even read that Atiku will do us a favor and NOT attend his “overseas medical check up” so he can hang around to answer these charges. I wander if it crosses his inept mind to ask himself how many foreigners not to talk of American politicians even think of approaching the door steps of a Nigerian hospital.
What a shame, so much for Obasanjo cleaning up Nigeria’s image abroad. They are a laughing stock of the world….the so called giant of Africa!
Can somebody please tell us again why Ngozi Iwuala left? Keep running girl, you worked too hard to have your reputation destroyed by a bunch of criminals.

Embattled VP, Abubakar Atiku issues a damning release detailing President Obasanjo's shady side as they converted nigeria's resources to personal use. Remi Oyo (Obasanjo's spokesperson): “Less than 90 days after the first deposit on October 10, 2003, TIB advanced a loan of N400 million to NDTV and two days later gave a loan of N420 million to MOFAS. Chief Fasawe has interests in NDTV and MOFAS and serves as Chairman of both companies. A second loan of N30 million was given again to NDTV by TIB barely two months later on Jan 1 2004.
Garba Shehu (Atiku's spokesperson): "As regards the refund of Dariye donation, Governor Joshua Dariya has confirmed paying N100m from ecological fund to the PDP. In the course of investigating Plateau State Accounts, Nuhu Ribadu stumbled on this payment, he brought it to the attention of the Vice President who was the chairman of the campaign, and the Vice President took it up with the President who accepted that they had no option but to return the money. The President paid N50million and insisted since it was a joint ticket, that the Vice President would have to pay the balance. Anyway, Oyo’s new admission that Obasanjo refunded N50m of the Dariye donation contradicts earlier claim by the President and PDP that the donation did not exist." If you can please send us e-mail addresses of your friends who may be interested in our no-hold barred reports to <saharareports@aol.com> or <publisher@saharareporters.com> we will be able to reach 1 million Nigerians at once.

1. Eleven million naira –only- 2. Ten million naira-only- 3. Four million naira-only- 4. Fifty million naira-only- 5. Sixteen million naira-only- 6. one hundred eighty-one million naira-only- 7. Seventy million naira-only- 8. Fifty million naira-only- 9. Fifty million naira-only- 10. Forty million naira-only-
Folks, the word “only” after million leaves a lot to be said about their attitude on spending public funds as if it’s their personal bank account.
Tufiakwa, what a country! Criminals go criminals come. This is the ones we know, how much more are lodged in Swiss banks and elsewhere around the world? There must be a revolution, we need a Rawlings fast before the wells run dry and we would have had nothing to show for it!
What will we tell our children? That we stood by and watched a few hoodlums rape their future just like their predecessors did ours? We must start by demanding the immediate release of brother Uwazurike and others. These criminals should be the ones in jail!
