It’s the typical Naija “noting dey happen” attitude.

We’ve all been guilty of it at some point.

No mind them. One just enter europe here in office and he has started stealing their foods, taking their things home. They checked his cloak yesterday when he was off and found so many raw foods he was hiding and they called me to come and see it. Very bad mentality.

What do you have to say about the lying terrorists & war criminals in washington?

So because there are supposedly terrorists and war criminals in America, Nigerians should get a free pass to commit crimes in England? You have no sense of accountability just like most of these criminals. If someone gets away with criminal acts then you should get away with it too, right? This is the mentality that fosters corruption in your country—laymen and civil servants feel entitled to steal because politicians steal. Where has that gotten you?

He just entered? I believe what you’re saying though. Don’t worry, instead of being accountable, he’ll just do as these guys on this board do and tell the office managers that the people in England’s Parliament are stealing too.

Seems like the one produced over here tastes better cuz I don't see the logic behind smuggling tobacco to a country where you can easily purchase one.

One is to read, another thing is to understand.

The cigarette isn't the problem, the problem was he was trying to evade tax...

He has no past convictions, so I believe he will be vindicated. He made it clear it’s not for personal gains but for his cousin. And it’s just cigarettes.

If found wanting though, let the hammer be brought down on him.

This thing happened to a friend of mine 3 years ago. Same thing his cousin did to this man. He knew nothing about the cigarette stuff ,because the friend liar to him to bring cigarette with different packs for him because of the cold. When they arrested him the friend never show up. So this man may be innocent

Wrong answer, too much talk without a simple answer to what you were asked. Typical yankee behavior.

Lets go again:

What do you have to say about the lying terrorists & war criminals in Washington? The same demons who committed genocide in Iraq, Libya etc

It's not illegal. It is just more expensive there so smuggling na to cash out.


Obi does not smoke or do drugs. We all know who does.

The reason is the price… cigarette in Uk cost about 12-15pounds equivalent to about 12,000naira.. in Nigeria it’s about 500 nairaland per pack…and it’s the same cigarette.. that why people smuggle it
