What! Buhari is fighting what again?

buckeyemedia:
Let’s get this straight, your President is corrupt, Tinubu is corrupt, but your own father who is also a Nigerian like them isn’t corrupt?

Are you really serious? They say show me your leaders & I will tell you who you are.

tienegem:
nnamdi KANU should be next

buckeyemedia:
That is been polite, just say more than 85% of we Nigerians are Criminals.

The person receiving the pardon is a pdp Criminal like James Ibori & DSP Alamieyeseigha;

seunmsg:
This is a stupid decision. One of the reasons why some of us voted against Jonathan was the state pardon granted to DSP Alamieyeseigha; it’s such a shame that Buhari is now doing the same thing. What then is the purpose of wasting public funds to try him if the president would still release him after conviction? This is simply disgraceful. He can as well release all convicted criminals.

festacman:
Presidents all over the world have the power to exercise prerogative of mercy for convicted person whether condemned or just serving jail sentence.

In Nigeria, the President exercises it on the formal advice of the Council of State. Though using this constitutional power to free convicted corrupt politicians looks negative but it is what it.

Recall, US presidents nearing the end their tenures exercise this power, which why former POTUS Trump pardoned convicted Lil Wayne on his last day in office.

EagleNest:
Amnesty to criminals, why?

Mooh247:




Nigeria is irredeemable


Council of State is the Number one advisory board of Government

So all former Head of state, former Vice President, former chief judge, former Governors all sat and agreed to free a criminal

The Council of States after a meeting on Thursday in Abuja agreed to free former Taraba State governor, Rev Jolly Nyame, who has been serving a jail term at the Kuje prison for misappropriation of funds while he was in office.
Nyame was the governor of Taraba State from 1999 to 2007.


“The Council of State today agreed to grant him pardon.
