Nigeria judiciary system is a disgrace to international community. This man should be bang in Prison for at least 20 years. Like father like son, he is a fraudster who gets away with muders with his Youruba popularity family friends in goverment. To kill corruption in Nigerian no linient for people like this. I think we should introduce excution with firing squad in Nigeria to deter Nigerian to be honest in there dealing with other.

ReplyDeleteRecalled that MKO Abiola defraud Nigerian goverment of over 100 millions of Naira and flew abroad before returning back to the country in the early 70/80 ties. But justice prevail when he return back to politic, thinking that God has forgotten all the evil he did and he got his reward with his family at 1998 election. I thought that His sons will learn from their father mistake and live a decent life of honesty but obviously that is not the case. This man deserve at least 20years imprisonment for this fraudster. People like him give Nigerians a bad name abroad.
ReplyDeleteBokon, obviously you are a very fustrated illiterate! Have you read the about this case properly before judging. O so his father defrauded Nigerians now.......Obviously you are a big moron who doesnt even know what his talking about.

Some Prozac or something stronger should cool your nerves.
