ISpiksDaTroof: I just don't understand. I posted the news and I even tacitly supported the Mr Nnaka provided he can provide a validly signed contract, and all I have getting are tribal bashing. Sincerely, I also doubt that a number of them are mentally sound. 1 Like |

ISpiksDaTroof: As far as we know, the contract was signed between two competent parties, and the Nigerian government received Nnaka's offer and considered it before they appointed him as the attorney to assist in recovering the looted funds. If both parties agreed to the 40% fee (evidence could be oral or in writing), I don't see how the govt will succeed in a court of law trying to convince the court that the fee is improper. 4 Likes |

Well this is a legal and moral issues... Something that is legal may not be ideal and something that is ideal may not be legal... What the lawyer is asking is right legally. Because the federal government outght to have act more wisely when entering the contract with him.. However the lawyer is a Nigeria and morally he should understand the fact that he can not hold the Government of Nigeria to ransome owing to the fact that he is legal expert.. Ethically the lawyer in questions is not linien with is charges.. 10% will have been an ideal charge.. And he will still have to be hired next time for other legal work. |

agabusta: This is the AGF 's fault. The lawyer is seeking 40% in the US courts. If the AGF had behaved well, maybe nah 10 or 20% for be his legal fees. Every issue should be addressed from its root cause. A labourer is worthy of his pay. 2 Likes |

This is what proves you are not a lawyer like you claimed or an embarrassment to this esteemed profession if you really have a law degree and most definitely not licensed to practise in any U.S state. First, how could you prove that the contract was drawn with "deceit" as its intention Second, Yes fine prints matters actually that's one of the most important part any contract. ( you should have known this if you went to law school..First semester 1L) Third, Why would you call the lawyer a crook You might have a slander case hanging around your neck. Fourth, how would Nigeria's attorney batter him in court? On what grounds?? Finally, it's very unprofessional to call a legal fellow "selfish" . he negotiated the contract as it is the norm in the legal profession.. Both the client and the Attorney" agreed" of service fee, why are you saying Mr. Nnaka is selfish?? ( defamation lawsuit hanging on yout waist this time). Also recall, Nigerian government were not forced into the contract, the contract was not signed under duress. Now the legal part is over... Lets do some street talking. I don't applaud Nigerian government for getting in such a contract with this guy. This case could be easily won by Attorneys at the Nigerian consulate because no one is "really" fighting for the money except Nigerian government.. What the banks might be doing is to frustrate the effort so they could use the money for turnover and reap some profits. We all got to know about this incident because Malami wanted 70% of the lawyers 40%. 3 Likes 1 Share |

When was this asset recovery case instituted Wasn't he a practicising Attorney at that time What is fed government position on Mr. Nnaka's law suit Mr. Nnaka is just asking the feds to honor the contract both of them agreed to.. Whether he is still licensed or not or retired is very "irrelevant" as long as the case was finished i.e, the job was done before he retired or was disbarred. 1 Like |

It appears the Nigerian state had entered into some documentary agreements with him for him to demand the 40%. The Nigerian DOJ should investigate Nnaka's claims and see if there is complicity on the part of the members of the DOJ in 2004 to rip the nation off of 40% of the booty by agreeing on such legal fees. He appears dogged and determined that he will win his appeal. The accusations of Nnaka against the Nigeria Attorney General,Abubakar Malami is quite disturbing. I hope it is not as alleged by Nnaka because Malami's defence is quite pathetic. 1 Like |

Na wa o. Even the lawyer sef na THIEF, how can you ask to be paid 40% of the recovered loots? Why not charge a flat fee since you know it will be a huge amount we are talking about? Make dem kuku leave the money instead of giving it to another THIEF. Our pple still dey benefit for the money as e dey inside U.S economy. The yeye lawyer wants to be enriched just because he helped to recover the stolen fund. He's a crook and a fraudster. The U.S govt should deal with Naija govt directly on the matter as long as they admit that the money was stolen and they are sincere about refunding the money. For all I care, they may be the unseen hands behind the lawyer's stance just to ensure the money is not returned. Thief na thief anyhow you look at it |

I thought someone said Abacha never stole any money, he was a "Saint". Anyway, the man asking for 40% is just being optimistic, I don't think it's a cap, maybe by the time it is negotiated, it would come to less than 10%.. As for Malami, his demand of 70% of the lawyers fee is evil and corrupt. He is also eyeing the 40% lawyer's fee if paid. But the lawyer declined , if otherwise, Malami would had come to the media to defend why they must pay the 40%. Please where is our Abdulmumin Jubrin and his political expose on Budget padding? I knew this will not end well, now it's gone under our usual old carpet. |

Whether the lawyer name is Obi, Adewale or Kwankwaso, if the agreement was to pay him 40%. Then give him his money. After all. Once the money makes it back to Nigeria it will sit vanish into private pockets like the other recovered loot. |
