Fashanu is a dead man!
From the very beginning of Scientology's operation to destroy, discredit and jail me, OPEC's Rilwanu Lukman, a long term Scientologists, has been the key Scientology operative/facilitator on the Nigeria side of the equation. There is no doubt that Lukman, with his Scientology handlers hand-picked John Fashanu to be their boy for the frontal assault on me while Scientology and Lukman tried to stay behind their masks.
Fashanu had baggage to begin with and Scientology had to make sure they had control of Fash. The Scientology PI, David Lee/Lebow, using the alias of Robert Clarke, not only did the infamous "Fashanu Report" but he also wiretapped Fashanu to be sure of his loyalties. In fact, Lee recently played an audio tape in Washington D.C. of Fashanu talking on the phone with a Nigerian Senator discussing how they were going to blackmail some Nigerians whose names and offshore account details had been uncovered by David Lee during his "research" for the Fash report. This tape was played for the NDM president in Washington, Bolaji Aluko, also the Howard University professor.
Needless to say, Professor Aluko thought that it was VERY unusual that a man who was "employed" by Fash would also be monitoring the calls of his "boss". Well, Fash has seen the writing on the wall and has been trying to find an elegant way to exit the imbroglio that Scientology has placed him in for a few weeks now. Fash is now a paranoid man, always looking over his shoulder, afraid to talk on his phones and finding himself repeatedly attacked in the Nigerian press as a lackey of Abacha in the past and now Scientology. This does not include the attempts by Fashanu to hold-up the Nigerian government for $500,000 or to do the same with the Abacha family over the information in the "Fashanu" report. I bet John was happier when he was playing football rather than being used as a football by Scientology.
The irony at present for Fashanu is he can't get out of the Scientology blackmail trap. There's no where Fashanu can go to extricate himself from this quagmire. BUT, Fashanu made a deal with the devil Abacha and now with the devil, Scientology. You can never win when you sleep with the devil, John; so, don't come to me looking for help. That's why I say Fashanu is a dead man!
Now to Scientology's Lukman. Apart from his regular contact with the Scientology PI's and his Scientology handlers, Lukman has been peeping out from behind the Scientology mask. In June he personally arranged for the Nigerian president Obasanju, during a state visit to Switzerland, to meet with David Lee to hear the Scientology spin on the Fash report.
Lukman also personally intervened with the Nigerian High Commissioners Office in London to "persuade" them to write the letter to Swiss authorities saying they wanted me prosecuted.
Lukman is totally a pawn of Scientology in this matter. He calls no shots. Miscavige is personally handling this matter and is falling on his face. He is going to personally take the whole Scientology organization down with him because of his unbridled hatred of me. So be it Miscavige. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Scientology likes to say that IBB is the wealthiest living ex-dictator. Well, Lukman is probably the richest living ex-OPEC president (although I would guess Sheik Yamani is ahead of him). Research has discovered that the largest oil-trading venture in Nigeria, which was set-up by Lukman, is owned and operated by Scientologist friends of Lukman. In due course a lot more details will be forthcoming about a company that affects the lives of Nigerians on a daily basis..
Sometimes I have to do a "pinch test" just to be sure I'm living this bizarre story and not in the middle of a nightmare.

Personally Ms Dos, I think Bobs report here is rather factual and lacking vindictiveness. If Bob were vindictive in this matter he would ahve **gone after this scum before it attacked him.
Even after he was attacked he just defended he did not retalliate with the data he had to hand.
Even now he is witholding data and only releasing it as the attack on him continues.
His reference to Fashanu being toast is simply factual.. that man is screwed completely, by the cult and his own complicitiy. Its simply a fact. If I were in Bobs shoes Id do just about exactly as Bob is doing if not more.
Regarding Bobs more general tendency to get agravated at such as having his kids stalked by the criminal cult.... well I cant say I blame him, but I do agree he has acted rashly on occasion and that could be used to make him look bad. An error Bob seems to have learned to avoid.
Regarding the LMT's actual agenda. I do indeed believe the Stacy and also Bob and for sure most if not all of the staff will do and have done thier best to help with great kindness and understanding those wishing to escape from the cult.
Personally if I were in Stacy or Bobs shoes I'd limit that help to CoS staff and public, and not worry about the welfare of the scum running the cult... exposure is what needs to happen in that quarter and the like they did on the last go round. ... the overseers though might walk (the CST brigage, but that remains to be seen).
I dont think the LMT owes these people anything.... but it gives none the less.
