SHOCKING REVELATION!!!!!!!! The US Has Given Buhari The Names Of Nigerian Oil Thieves
The US has handed to President Muhammadu Buhari the list of Nigerian oil thieves.According to the Punch,a memeber of the President's entourage during last week's visit to the US,confided in them.
“I can tell you that the President already has the list of names of the people engaging in the stealing of Nigeria’s oil. The list, when released by the President, will shock Nigerians. But let’s wait and see first,” the source said.
The source says that the President was awestruck when he saw the names on the list and that he might be compelled to probe the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan.
A presidency source also confirmed that Buhari had such a list,but that "the President has been keeping the list to himself."
The source who told Punch correspondent about the list in the President's possession ,said the US gave Buhari 2 separate lists-one listing the names of top government officials who have been stealing the country's oil,using their high offices to perpetrate the stealing;the other containing the names of illegal oil bunkerers.
Recall that the President had said last week,that some ministers in the cabinet of Jonathan were stealing as much as 250,000 barrels of Nigeria's crude oil.
The Presidency source who spoke to one of Punch's correspondents on condition of anonymity,said Buhari had vowed that those whose names appear on the lists would not go scot-free.
"The Presidency would probe all of them and make sure they recover whatever fortune they had made from their thievery," the source had said.

"White Radio Is Racist,They Won't Play My Song"-Tyrese
White radio will ONLY play R&B/Soul if it's performed by white guys ... so claims the black guy who has the #1 R&B/Soul album ... Tyrese.
Tyrese does not mince words ... he says he can't get white radio DJ's to play his single "Shame" to save his life ... it's only played on black stations.
He then ups the ante, claiming white radio would love "Shame" if it was performed by Justin Timberlake,Sam Smith or Robin Thicke.
Tyrese grouses, urban stations play white artists with no problem ... it's just not a 2-way street.
He's pissed, but he's also #1 ...
I must say,it's such a "shame."

James Ibori’s Brother-In-Law Sentenced To 2 & a Half Years In UK Prison For Money Laundering
Rowland Nakanda, a brother-in-law to former Delta State governor James Ibori has been sentenced to a UK prison for his involvement in money laundering. London Metropolitan reports below...
Nakanda had previously been found guilty of two counts of money laundering following a month-long trial at Southwark Crown Court and was sentenced on Friday, 24 July. The investigation into Nakanda commenced during the wider inquiry into the corrupt activities of the former governor of Delta State, James Ibori, between 1999 and 2007.Nakanda, 54 (29.01.61) of Tyne Gardens, South Ockendon in Essex is the older brother of Teresa Ibori, James Ibori’s wife. James and Teresa Ibori were convicted of fraud and money laundering in 2012 and were sentenced to a total of 18 years’ imprisonment for corruption.
Following the conviction of the Iboris, the Nakandas became guardians of the Ibori’s three children. Police identified that the Ibori children, despite their parents’ convictions, were being educated at a private school and it was established that Nakanda had continued to pay the considerable school fees. Enquiries revealed that he had paid the fees to the school’s bank account in cash over the counter through his local Lloyd’s bank in Grays, Essex. CCTV revealed that on one day alone, Nakanda paid over £15,000 in cash for the school fees of two of the children.
A financial investigation was able to trace £350,000 in unexplained cash deposits going through Nakanda’s accounts following the convictions of the Iboris. The investigation was undertaken by the Met’s Proceeds of Corruption Unit, which has now transferred to the National Crime Agency (NCA) to become the International Corruption Unit. Rupert Broad, formerly a Detective Inspector in the Met’s Proceeds of Corruption Unit, said: “Rowland Nakanda previously worked for the Royal Mail and lived a modest lifestyle with his wife in Essex. I am pleased that we were able to demonstrate that Nakanda knew that the money he was dealing with was the proceeds of criminal conduct and had originated from James Ibori’s corrupt activity during his governorship of Delta State. This sentence should act as a warning that we will go after everyone involved in fraudulent activity, however complex and wide-reaching the fraud."
A total of nine individuals have now been convicted of money laundering offences in linked cases, and have received sentences totalling over 50 years.
Nakanda was acquitted of cheating the Revenue. Rowland Nakanda’s wife, Chifu Nakanda, was acquitted of all charges.
