'Still small amount, you'll doomed but stilll huge amount, you we be protected'.
Now i understand my country better. We learn everyday.

Kangoro Court

The Nigeria courts are there to protect looters.

Turning Point

This is the turning point for me. This is it! Let James Ibori go. Free James Ibori! Now!

Nigeria jaga jaga............

Nigeria jaga jaga............

I miss Reuben Abati at times

I miss Reuben Abati at times like this. He would ha written a good satire if those guys had not been wise enough to invite him to "come and eat". Yakubu Yussuf should be on the way to receiving a national honour. Nigeria is also sure on his way to become one of the top 20 economies by year 2020. The judiciary should be commended for a job well-done. With this brilliant judgement, this judge is on his way to a higher court; just wait and see. Our country is really moving forward and it is sure an interesting time to be a Nigerian.

The judicial system is a joke

Of course he sewed the Golden Agbada he was wearing exclusively of his sentencing. What a joke !

Who is the Judge

Nigerian Mallams always have their way, that is how EFCC under RIBADU only found criminals in the SOUTH and No one found in the NORTH.

oNE Nigeria

pension?

Nigeria should start inviting Chinese judges to judge this kind of cases, if it is in china he would have been crushed to death

Barawo!

He is obviously not from the Niger Delta. Would have been given the death penalty. Shame on our judiciary system.
The Nigerian springs will soon come and your black arse will be whipped! barawo!

Revolution Now

Not until we have a revolutionary squad to start elimination these looters one by one the country will never move forward.Where are the masses that lynches a phone snatcher. Where is Boko Haram that kills innocent citizens. These are your real enemies that holds you back. If you are a true revolutionary then please join hands with me in eliminating these common enemies. The revolution must start now. No more waiting.

pension fraud

NIGERIA IS DOOMED FOR EVER.JUDICIARY HAS KILLED THIS COUNTRY.

What an Irony of Justice

This is fiasco and a complete indictment of the Nigerian Judicial System. It deals a sledge hammer on petty thieves and scammers but gives a feeble slap on the back of the hand of mega fraudsters, simply because they have stolen enough to buy their way out. Not long ago a young "small-time" scammer from the southwest somewhere in one of the northern states was sentenced to about 10years in prison withou an option of fine for defrauding a few people of millions of naira, but in this case, some billions-of-naira fraudster is being set free after paying just a paltry sum of N250,000 from a whooping N39 billion he stole. What an irony of justice. GOD dey o!

Re police pension fraud suspect

What a country,what a people.A man steals a goat,he is sentenced to 15 years imprisonment with hard labour or option fine,another one of the same country stole almost 24 billion Naira and he is practically going home free with almost all his loot.this society must be mad.

.....STAND UP NAIJA....

WITH THE WALKING AWAY OF THE PENSION FUND THIEF....TELL ME WHERE THE NIGERIA DREAM NOW LIES .....ANOTHER TRAVESTY AFTER THE TRADE OF BLAME ON THE ADMINISTRATIVE LOOT BY THE JONA ADMINISTRATION BY MINISTER MAKU... I WONDER WHAT THE MINISTER HAS TO SAY ON THIS BROAD DAY RAPE ON THE POLICE PENSIONERS.....STAND UP NAIJA....SHINE YOUR EYE....THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO TAKE SOLACE IN FELA SONG AND SAY "FELA DON TALK AM BEFORE"....RISE DEAR COMPATRIOT....NIGERIA MUST BE SAVED FROM THIS ADMINISTRATIVE AND JUDICIAL RAPIST.....#ROARING... THE GORILLAS ARE NOW GETTING ANGRIER .

Two years for N39 Billion

Two years for N39 Billion Loot? This is similar to Bode George's case. What is going on in this country? How much was paid to the judge that sat on this case? And we need to know the name of the judge. I think we Nigerians should start to put pressure on these corrupt judges. They are assisting corrupt politicians and civil servants to ruin this country. Somebody helpppppp! Nigeria is in bigger trouble than we can imagine.

@concernednigerian

You are the stupid one. Jonathan has been in office for over 2 years and he is still the president..If all this is happening under his watch, who should we blame? you? or the old woman in my village...GEJ is the president.. Whether for 30 seconds or 2 years.. He is the CEO of Nigeria, Commander of the Military.. He is entrusted with the country..All the citizens are uner his care...

Think and free yourself from mental slavery...The guy that walked away with the billions just took a part of your future and your kids' future with him.. Think and stop talking like a FOOL...

This is a joke. He pleaded

This is a joke.

He pleaded guilty and has the option to pay a fine of NGN250,000 while keeping billions in stolen funds.

What have I missed? This CANNOT be true. It is too incredulous to be true!

And we think we are serious

And we think we are serious about fighting corruption in this land. This man should have been jailed for 50yrs or put on a death row that will serve as a deterent to others.

Stupid Nigerians

Was President Jonathan there? The answer is no. Yet there are stupid Nigerians who consider themselves relevant only when they have abused a man who came into office only two years ago. Stupid people.

Pension Fund Thief

...a PDP stalwart, I'm guessing!
