shame on 9ja
ReplyDeleteIts just the beginning of many more boycotts, cancellations & withdrawals. Hope our Ogas at the top are ready for these consequences!
ReplyDeleteGEJ LED GOVERNMENT IS A FAILURE AND THEY ARE SHAMELESS & ARROGANT...
ReplyDeleteNigeria jaga jaga
ReplyDeleteGood! Many more to come. That God this incident has exposed the criminalities are done in Nigeria. I will advised the United State to even recall its ambassador because Nigeria is not worth doing business with.
ReplyDeleteThe entire system is corrupt and those who claim to be in the forefront and institutions of government who are supposed to fighting corruption are the most corrupt. A nation where the president is granting presidential pardon to criminals is not fit to face America.
I will advised Bill Gate never to near this country except all government agents and individual who have stolen our resources are brought to justice.
Nigeria has its constitution and it is withing the privilages of the president to pronounce freedom to any citizen of 9ja that has been convicted of whatever crime so GEJ has done nothing wrong judging by the 9ja constitution he swore to protect. 2. If USA decides to shift or put our relationship on tension we can survive. There are hundreds of nations ready to do business with us so if America feels they can bully us the have a surprise coming. The Embassy can go to somalia for all I care. And if you are a nigerian then you are a big fool that would betray ur country anyday for a visa. Who said there is no corruption or courrpt officials in the USA? I shit on u
DeleteIf we are not ashame as a country why depending on Bill Gate money to fight polio dat many nations has long overcome.
ReplyDeleteThis is not a good news at all. It is not "Oga on the top" that suffers it. It is the ordinary man in naija. This guy is on collision course and must never be allowed to destroy our already-flourishing country.
ReplyDeleteI know this country will be purged someday. God will visit us again and give us new hearts both d leads and the leaders. Corruption has eaten us deeply. People that are condeming will do worse if they have the opportunity.
ReplyDeleteKudos to d American government and Bill Gates. Someone should be able to make GEJ and co know that Nigeria is not a shop in ladipo market. With this deveopment,all I can say is 'God bless America'.
ReplyDeleteWe should all see reasons why these guys should be booted out of office.
ReplyDeleteThe negative brand persist.....what a shame. Unfortunately, it is the man on the street that Will suffer all these actions.
ReplyDeleteHmmm........ Is rather unfortunate is only in Africa that such is condon May the almighty save Nigeria.
ReplyDeleteSo what!!!! WHO IS begging him for his money?Nigeria did what obtains elsewhere. Let him stay away if he so wishes.
ReplyDeleteLET HIM STAY AWAY INDEED!SHAMELESS LOOTERS SHAMELESS FOLLOWERS!

ReplyDeleteSometime our beloved GEJ can be irrational.
ReplyDeleteNigeria is too blessed to be depending on foreign donors!

ReplyDeleteA Notable verse from the Holy book says, righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.Well done Mr GOOD-LUCK.History will surely remember you.
ReplyDeleteExcuse me, "GEJ has done nothing wrong judging by the 9ja constitution", freedom is the right to do 'the right thing'. To misuse your privilege of presidential pardon and pardon criminals is not only sending the wrong message, it's putting the very constitution you speak of at risk. Does this mean that if I rob the country blind, then do something that pleases government, I will be eligible to have my records erased? I don't think I ever read that anywhere in our constitution. Note, this man's crimes were against the nation, he didn't rob a bank, he stole from government purses, from Nigerians as a whole! Elsewhere, even if such people are given more lenient jail terms, their records still remain. NO COUNTRY EVER PROGESSED BY EXHALTING ITS CRIMINALS. What we need is strong messages of severe repercussions for corruption so as to dissuade those involved in, or contemplating it. We certainly do not need to provide loopholes and silver linings that encourage criminals of the possibility that they will get away with their crimes in the end.
ReplyDeleteThe problem in Nigeria is our leadership way of doing things. Gates should please extend his philanthropy to the poor people of Nigeria through the mosques or churches not through the government because it will never reaches the target groups.
