3 Reasons Why Buhari May Soon Drag Jonathan to EFCC

According to constitutional Lawyer, Professor Itse Sagay, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan may be called to answer charges if the anti-corruption panel instituted by Buhari links any misappropriation of state funds to him in its ongoing investigations.
Goodluck Ebele Jonathan
  
No former Nigerian President had ever been charged to court concerning his management of the country's treasury while in power but the President Muhammadu Buhari's defiant stand against grant may break the jinx.
 
Former President Goodluck Jonathan may soon be invited by anti-graft agencies namely the Economic and Financial Crimes Comission, EFCC and the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission, ICPC.

Here are 3 reasons why former President Jonathan may be invited:

1. To clear his name:

Everyday a new scam dating back to the Goodluck Jonathan administration gets announced. New figures are bandied around frequently and former aides of the President under threat of arrest. The former President may have to visit anti-graft agencies to clear his name.

2. To Prove that nobody is above the law:

If a former President is dragged before anti-graft agencies, President Muhammadu Buhari would have sent a very strong message to the corrupt elites - YOU ARE NOT ABOVE THE LAW!

3. To score political points:

Dragging former President Jonathan before anti-graft agencies will improve public faith in President Buhari's anti-corruption fight.

"There was a time [when United were interested] but I could not leave Dortmund. Tha...

Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose   The Ekiti State Governor, Ayo Fayose, has dragged the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and Zenith Bank Plc to court over the freezing of his accounts.   The case was filed on Tuesday on behalf of Fayose by constitutional lawyer, Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN), at the Federal High Court, Ado Ekiti.  Subsequently, the court has ordered the EFCC to appear before it.   The Court ordered that the EFCC and Zenith Bank should appear before it on July 4 to show cause why Fayose’s demands on the freezing of his accounts should not be granted.   Fayose is seeking the de-freezing of the accounts. The EFCC had alleged that the accounts were used in receiving about N4.7 billion from the Office of the National Security Adviser.   The anti-graft agency said its investigation traced the fund to part of that used for the prosecution of the election that produced Fayose as governor in 2014. ...

MARRIED OR NOT, YOU SHOULD READ THIS by Peju

Image
When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I’ve got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes. Suddenly I didn’t know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly. She didn’t seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why? I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn’t talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Jane. I didn’t love her anymore. I just pitied her! With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company. She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life w...
