    3. Jonathan fumbled when he decided to surround himself with all dis aboki traitors in his administration. I wonder what he was expecting in return? Loyalty? Mbanu!!! The deed has been done. What his doing is medicine after death. Am disappointed in him for not been wise from the onset. An aboki is always an aboki. Kai!!!!

  31. Wawu! What could have prompted such action, I'm sure it will not be unconnected to the last election. And to think this is coming on the heels of recent shower of encomiums on the Nigerian police, for a fair outing during the just concluded election.

  75. Well qualified replacement but Wow! GEJ is not smiling, the IG most have done something really bad, this must be one of the shortest tenure, he was obviously going to get relieved or redeployed by Buhari but this is a surprise and Abati used the word ‘sack’

    ReplyDelete
  76. And why the sacking..is it necessary when you are already sacked from aso rock..

  77. The sacker was already sacked by the masses. The sackee would still have been sacked by June. And the appointee is now brought to the limelight unnecessarily. Arase would have preferred the status quo. I would have preferred Mbu for the post. He would have been the first sackee of the APC govt.

  83. Why na? Did the guy not deliver?

    ReplyDelete
  84. Ermmm. I suspect he was sacked due to the statement released by Buruji Kashamu. Buruji said a source close to Arase (DIG) confirmed to him that the Americans want to forcefully extradite him. I knew it was a matter of time before we would hear of drama at the police head quarters.

  89. The appointment of the new IG is to prepare the way for the eventual disappearance of Goodluck from Nigeria, before the 29th of May, 2015.Most of the Ministers will watch the handover from far off from the UK and US. After God, the fear of Buhari is the beginning of wisdom to the PDP looting pack.Both Diezani and Dr Okonjo Iweala had already taken off for effect.Buhari might end up handing over power to himself since Goodluck had already suggested May 28 as the handover date. Who wan die or go to prison for 300 years. A Minister told me privately that the sight of Buhari alone on television gives him epilepsy.

    APC REJECT THE AGENDA OF HAND OVER OF 28TH. na why them Jonathan con dey look for who link the secrect since last week and he sack abba today. i suspect that he may be the one link the secrect!

  104. It's been long overdue.Though,I don't know and has never met him,I just think he must be a very corrupt officer who got to the peak of his career through political patronage.i don't know if Nigerians took note of the fact that the Criminal police check points that disappeared with his predecessors appointment resurfaced as soon as Suleiman Abba was made the IG.Follower-ship will always take a cue from their leaders.Good riddance to bad rubbish.

  105. Controller general of customs and that of immigration are next line, for daring to per a visit to the president elect. GEJ on the loose.
