ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteYou are a fool to think this is political. It's not your fault is because you did not loss a family member in the massacre that is why you are saying this nonsense . If you leave in kwara state you will know better
DeleteEverybody knows Saraki and Dino and the other guy are being set up, it's plain to see...
DeleteBubu this your nollywood antics won't work. The timing is poor and your motive is just too glaring. Come next year you will become an EX.
DeleteAmen
DeleteSo he asked them to go and rob?? Statement of life!! On another note,this is why its dangerous arming boys for politics, they never collect the arms back thereby adding more menace to the society.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteNigeria policiiiii!! What a country!
ReplyDeleteNo wonder the Kwara gov raised an alarm a few weeks back in a pre-emptive move.
ReplyDeleteI know they must mention saraki name...rubbish country...propaganda everywhere
ReplyDeleteSame thing they did to Dino. Trust Saraki to come with his 150 SAN and Lawyers 😂
Delete😃😃😃😃😃😃@ 150 SAN and lawyers! Bukola Saraki, a cat with nine lives! Dss attached to him has been removed. He should better attach imams to himself because these Apc people are ready for anything! Nigeria police, the worst in the world!
DeleteSee gobe.
ReplyDeleteAye ooo
ReplyDeleteBukola and fatai hamed kwa
Hmmmmmmmm
I hope this guys are saying the truth, I hope is not a set up.
ReplyDeleteSenate President Bukola Saraki ke?
ReplyDeleteThis is unbelievable.
Waiting for his Press Statement. This better be a cooked up lie.
Adonbilivit!
It's very easy,9ja police is notorious for its sloppiness in cases like this.They will undo themselves as time goes if the story is not true.
DeleteOf course Saraki wouldn't have descended so low to plan such a mindless robbery but before you jump into any conclusion,the word on the streets is that those boys are on the payroll of the Kwara State govt as political thugs.
Saraki and Ahmed did not mastermind that robbery, but they will need to explain themselves as to who supply the guns used in that robbery operation turned massacre.
@proudly anonymous, did you read and understand the article?
DeleteThe suspects said the arms and vehicles used for the robbery were given to them by Saraki and Hammed to be used for political thuggery but they for reasons best known to them decided to used them for robbery.
And political thuggery is what? Is it not the same violence? You trained and equipped men to become violent. What do you expect they will be doing when there are no more elections? Singing lullabies? You created monsters amongst your people. And you think the monsters will not attack your people? Come on now.
DeleteHnmmm as usual, nothing will be done.
ReplyDeleteHmmm. To think he offered 5mil to who ever had info on d robbery , mks d whole thing look true
ReplyDeleteTo cause distraction when times like this come up. He knows apt of people will vouch for him and standby by him. I’m not surprised he was fingered neither am I surprised that a lot of people are standing by him. Remember, y’all are just pawns and victims of casualties.
DeleteAll the robbers and touts work for these dirty politicians but i don't trust the accusation leveled against Saraki
ReplyDeleteOh my God what a country. So those robbers were politically motivated. May God safe us in this nation.
ReplyDeleteCutest sexy Teejay, God will SAFE you from your gbagauns
DeleteThis is some serious allegation... hope they’ve got proof to substantiate their claim?
ReplyDeleteI’m not sure a lot of you read the statement.The police didn’t say Saraki asked them to go and rob,they only said they are under his payroll.What I expect reasonable people to say is that this issue be thoroughly investigated and whoever is culpable,no matter how highly placed,should face the full wrath of the law.
ReplyDeleteGbam....you are the only one using and making sense.
DeleteHmmmmmmmm
DeleteYour very correct , a lot of these politicians use thugs , they arm them for political reasons , it’s these same thugs that turn out and use the arms for different atrocities. My people , remember how militancy started in rivers state , it was after Peter odili armed thugs for election and later they refused to return the arms
DeleteThat's Nigerians for you.....judge into conclusions. Kept reading comments and was just opening my mouth. Where was he accused of planning the robbery?
DeleteSame thing i just explained above.
DeleteThis is worthy of proper investigation as to how they got arms. This same incident happened in kogi state. When politicians arm gangs for politic reasons the arms are never returned. Leaving them no option than to indulge in crime and other social vises.
DeleteSaraki may have armed them but not asked them to rob. Any way if he is found culpable he should be tried.
It was Dino Melaye, it is now Senate present. Is there no way this transmitted transmission can be caushioned against all these cock and bull stories that are dragging the name of this country in the mud?
ReplyDeleteYou're forgetting Shehu Sank was also invited after being 'fingered' in a crime. Also this 'fingering' is becoming predictable.
DeletePeople will come here now and say Buhari is on a witch hunting spree.
ReplyDeleteThis is very believable. 🤐
Hmmmmmm
ReplyDeleteMc pinky
Adonbiliivit. This is just a plot of the police to rubbish the Senate president.
ReplyDeleteBut of course it's witch hunting, that's what they're good at once u're not on their side.
ReplyDeleteThese people forget that they'll leave power one day, nothing lasts forever.
APC is the worst thing that has happened to Nigeria! They are shameless!
ReplyDeleteHmmmm,serious allegation. Police should investigate.
DeleteYour very correct , a lot of these politicians use thugs , they arm them for political reasons , it’s these same thugs that turn out and use the arms for different atrocities. My people , remember how militancy started in rivers state , it was after Peter odili armed thugs for election and later they refused to return the arms
DeleteAsi!!! Big lie.
ReplyDeleteStella love your blog I swear. I remember reading on this blog when the incident happened that Saraki was not blameless. He didnt ask them to rob of course but he supplies thugs arms and ammunition for elections and they are his payroll .unfortunately after the election, they won't return the arms and since they don't have access to as much money even though they are on the payroll, they have no choice but to engage themselves otherwise hence robbery and kidnapping. I salute the wisdom of bvs I swear. Because I read some comments on this, surprised it took NPF this long to figure out what bvs dissected in minutes.
ReplyDeleteIs the Senate president, s hands clean? Abeg let karma visit any corrupt politician it remembers.
ReplyDeleteStella don't be shocked ooo this is for real . I personally know someone that was arrested in connection to we where all shocked of the extend of their connecting. No bank robbery happened in offa just massacre of innocent lifes
ReplyDeleteStupid headline....Saraki arming them as thugs is not the same as sponsoring them on their robbery mission.....they are two separate offenses...Saraki rules Kwara and its a shame that nothing will happen to him and this matter will just die down....but God pass them and judgement will visit them soon in Jesus name
ReplyDeleteThis is ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteHmmm
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile they hide their own kids abroad and arm political thugs that now go on to rob banks and slaughter other people's kids that went to work for their daily bread.
ReplyDeleteIt shall not be well with this politician's.
This country is indeed a zoo.
Imagine that senile man that called youth's lazy. When none of his own kids has a notable job.
When you give thugs guns to scare your opponents and you win the elections. You forget to collect the guns from these thugs! These thugs now use the same guns to rob and kill, please who is guilty here? Whose hands are soiled with blood? Think carefully! Is it the hand that provided the guns or the hands that took lives with guns? Or both? None is innocent!
