Absurd! The man stole Billions and pay paltry sum! It is another way of legalising corruption. |

EFCC is a total charade Nigeria will never move forward on the basis of all these shaninigans! Hopeless and useless leaders further plundering the Nation into a quagmire of blatant bias, injustice and corruption! |

I guess, we have all begun to miss Ribadu. Unfortunately, he is gone for good and our suffering is just starting. Those of you that have so much faith in AGF's rule of law, i hope, we are now all seeing the result. The truth is that no nigerian court has successfully convicted anyone of corruption in Nigeria. Not only are the judges corruptible, the cases take decades to conclude, so, it doesn't deter anyone from continuing to loot. Ribadu was able to recover over $5.5 billion by taking tough and decisive action. |

I can see that yar'ardua has endorsed corruption in this country no wonder they where in a hurry to get ribadu out of the way. i weep for this my country called naija. former governor alamesiagha was also convicted on the same charges and sentenced to 2 years in prison but was freed b'cos of time he had spent in jail already awaiting trial. |

i don't know if you guys have noticed the terms of the conviction yet? the guy wasn't even charged with corruption, rather the buzzword in the 1-count charge is 'negligence'. hehehe. maybe it's me, but is this 'rule of |

Innocent people are lavishing in Nigerian jail while the main criminals are walking boldly on the street. Which way Nigeria?? |

it is really a shame! I knew this Farida Lady was up to something fishy! |
Re: Enugu High Court convicts Igbinedion, fines him N3.5 million by ojimboIV: 7:33pm On Dec 19, 2008 |
this is waziri's first high-profile prosecution. i guess we all know what follows after this. a massive swarm of guilty pleas to 'negligence'. watch and see how everyone else falls in line. nigeria home video at it's finest. |
Re: Enugu High Court convicts Igbinedion, fines him N3.5 million by gamechange(m): 7:48pm On Dec 19, 2008 |
Corruption and Nigeria are synonymous. This dastard verdict is the final nail on the coffin. There is no better word to describe the relationship between Government and its people other than "Slavery" Yes I said it. Nigerians are slaves to their masters (those in Government) |
Re: Enugu High Court convicts Igbinedion, fines him N3.5 million by GettysBurg: 7:56pm On Dec 19, 2008 |
Honestly, we shouldn't have expected much from Farida Waziri. There's also no way you can use a set of rules scripted by the corrupt themselves to fight corruption. And maybe that's why Ribadu resorted to extra-constitutional means and methods to fight corruption. And he got results! Sadly, we all crucified him! What exactly do we want: Real Results or Merely Paying lip service to the serious issues at stake? We need to get serious, NIGERIANS! |
Re: Enugu High Court convicts Igbinedion, fines him N3.5 million by GettysBurg: 8:07pm On Dec 19, 2008 |
gamechange: I concur with you on the fact of corruption being synonymous with nigeria. I only disagree we are slaves to the government. I feel we are slaves to ourselves. To our ignorance and sentimentality! Today we shout, Ribadu is too hard and excessive, now we see a 'soft and kind' woman, fighting the monster called corruption with kid gloves, and we are crying she is bad,bad,bad! Wetin we want sef? We vascilate, oscillate, undulate and fluctuate with every wind that blows around! We dont know what we want. PERIOD! |
Re: Enugu High Court convicts Igbinedion, fines him N3.5 million by Udobass: 10:17pm On Dec 19, 2008 |
God will bless Ribadu. Now we are begining to see that this administration is not ready to fight corruption, but to encourage it. I only pray to God to see us through. So a man will come into my house as an armed rubber, rape all my family members, cart away all my monies and properties and later come back to apologies, return say N10 thousand naira and then off he goes. what kind of country is this. And yet we will say Obasanjo was not good. Oh Baba OBJ , I am begining to miss u, I wish u could come back again. |

What else do u expect From this Farida woman.This is a woman that stood as a surety for a corrupt Governor.So from the word go,she is one of them. |

ATTENTION NAIRALANDERS Corruption has been 'partially legalised' in nigeria.If you get into any political post in the country loot as much as possible without looking back.The highest punishment you can get is 'remmiting' back at most 5% of your loot. |
Re: Enugu High Court convicts Igbinedion, fines him N3.5 million by Muza(m): 12:22am On Dec 20, 2008 |
asha 80: the highest u'll forfeit is 0.1%, this N3.5m is about 0.002434 of wat he stole. |

9ja judicial sys is corrupt, why would de have plea for bail equal to amt he uses to brush his teeth, what we should introduce is that any corrupt politician found guilty should spend at least 10yrs in jail without any bail, no cash form or propt form of bail. he must served his jail term, person loot 100billion and he pays a fine of 1million naira, this kind of syst is found in xtreme corrupt countries, |

Steal a penny's worth of dried fish in a Nigerian market-place and a screaming mob will descend on you and tear your cheap ass to pieces. Steal the entire contents of the state treasury in Nigeria and people will line up round the block to pay their respects at your house, in exchange for a flea-bite of your loot. Moral ? Steal, but do so on a GRAND scale, or you will be burnt to death in the streets. |

That judgment is a complete pervarsion of justice, anti-social and obnoxious, enough grammer! I suggest that judge should be send back to law college, because he is not even fit to sit in his village meeting. We should not expect any past governor to go behind the bar in Yar dua administration, considering the most fraudlent and controversial circumstance that led to his emergence as the president of the Federal Republic midwived by the baboon president from Otta farm.He, Yar'dua, was and still one of them -the governor. ("Agwo adighi eri agwo ibeya"- "Snake no de chop fellow snake" else a long tail will come out of its mouth). Until they day the common Nigerians reliase that our affairs are being stagemanaged and manipulated even from the pinnacle of justice- the law court , what is happening will continue happening. We need to massively stand up and say no to their evils even in the face guns and death. But in Naija, who wan die, so silence and suffering become our own "plea bargin" |

What do you expect when daddy has made a few calls?? It is like a routine they go through EFCC so that the public believes that they are fighting corruption and after a couple of months, it is all over, they are set freee. But i do know one thing is sure, if the peole of edo state get him, he is a goner This man made the state look like it did before the whitemen came LIFE IS NOT FAIR IS IT? |
Re: Enugu High Court convicts Igbinedion, fines him N3.5 million by alfchye(m): 4:36pm On Dec 20, 2008 |
The thing that ained me most is all this nonesense about Ribadu been better than waziri.How many governors during his tenure were senetence to jail and even if the former bayelsa governor was sentence to jailed.The question is did he serve.He spent almost a year in London prison and they say he has serve jail before was it up to 2 years and why would they sentence sum1 2yearsfor corruption. If that be the case I will steal 500billion naira and let them jail me for 2years which I will serve or pay a fine of $3.5million.Ribadu and waziri will never do anything.I just wish they could desolve this mess called EFCC. |
