NinjaMetahuman:
assault anywhere is world carries prison sentence.
You could be charged with attempted murder if the assault is pretty big for even longer sentence to life.

It's worse when you assault uniformed govt official who are only performing their official duty.

Remind of the duration Seun Kuti spent in prison for assaulting an officer please

NinjaMetahuman:




She was sentenced for an assault not road rule.

Assault carries prison sentence all over the world. It's even worse when you attack uniformed govt official.

Okay... Agreed.

Why is Seun Kuti still walking free?!!

Why was Senator Abbo not tried and sentenced?!!

Assault is subjective... If not, Chris Brown vs Rihanna should have seen the former go to jail rather than a few months of community service and anger management classes.


Justice shouldn't be partial or be harsher towards people of lowly estates.

He was released on bail not discharged and aquitted.

abbo didn't assault police officer or government official. The girl he assaulted isn't cooperating or pressing charges.

Seun kuti was released on bail and his trial is still on

Rihanna and Chris Brown is a case of no proof. Rihanna has to press charges and bring proof she was assaulted unwarrantedly before Chris Brown can be prosecuted.

Lol... I like your attempt at patriotism, as amusing and naive as it comes off.

Seun is out on bail and case is still in trial, but the poor lady above has already been sentenced.

Is Senator Abbo's case still in trial?!! Was he even arrested for starters?!



Issokay... Let's all keep pretending that our justice system is not skewed in the favor of money and influence.

Whatever makes us sleep better at night.

Why can't this young girl equally be bailed and continue roaming freely like her mate Seun Kuti is doing long after being bailed?

Good morning.

it's simple, lagos law is differemt from.federal law on assualt or road offence.

There is instant court in lagos that deals with issues like this.
Federal law ( which is the police doesn't have such law)

If the girl was taking federal court like seun, she will be given bail pending her trial unless she murder someone or does something that the court can't grant her bail.


Also, the girl can appeal the sentence federal court and get bailed out pending the time the re trial is on.

It's all about knowing your right.

all animals are not equal, but if you know your right, you will still get away with some stuff.

Elites know their right and have the money to fight for that right.

That's difference..

Traffic offences like this should have options of fine or/community service. Why imprison a person in the overcrowded jail houses because of this? Not good enough

Nope... Strongly disagree!

In Nigeria, everyone knows his rights (at least most people do)!

Nigerian law enforcers (Judiciary), in most proven cases, simply pander and kowtow to wealth and elitism.


That's the undeniable and unassailable reason why most elite members of our society have such poor regard for rules and regulations.

No need twisting or pretending about known facts.


I can give you examples upon examples, but I sense you know this already.

Coming from the same person that says "assault anywhere is world carries prison sentence", especially when done to government officials performing their duties.

I don't know assaulters in this case do have a right again ooo. It's well

everyone has the right but elite have the money to fight for thay right.

It's same situation world over and it's not peculiar to Nigeria.

The wheel of justice will grind slower if you know the right people and right money.

The girl in particular will not go to jail anytime soon if she knows her right and have money to fight it.

That doesn't invalidate that assault carries prison sentence.


Read and comprehend.

This environment law enforcer caught me last year in CMS busstop, while I was crossed the road without using the pedestal. I saw uycross d Road and I decided to follow because there was no car coming. Immediately I crossed, boom! These green uniformed men came in their numbers. They jumped at me without saying anything, holding my trouser by the belt. I followed until we got close to their office. I told them one thing, and they left me. Na there I no say yoruba d fear well well.

Angelfrost:
Seven months in Prison??! Haba!!!

That doesn't even begin to make sense... Why no option of fine?!!

Community service for 6 months even makes more sense.

Why is the Nigerian Judiciary unnecessarily harsh when doling out judgment to the members of the lower class, but shockingly lenient towards the higher class for the very same offenses?!!

Y'all sentence phone snatchers to death or life imprisonment, but give Politicians and elected officials guilty of siphoning billions wrist slaps.

She came out easy sef

Resisting arrest arrest and assaulting a public personel around the world can get you upto 3years in prison

If her crime was just not using the pedestrian bridge then a fine is what she would have gotten

CaptainGo:


Yes. Community service is adequate for the offense committed. Imprisonment is very unnecessary in this instance.

Assualt of public official and resisting arrest is already worth prison time

She got a lenient sentence

blackmantis:
7 months is too much for failing to use pedestrian bridge.

I guess you didn't see assualting a public official

Angelfrost:


This is not the first time these judges show such judicial bias towards people of the lesser class...!

Seun Kuti disobeyed laws and even assaulted an officer yet never got even one week in jail.

Senator Abbo didn't even get to court for assault and bodily harm done to someone.

Funke Akindele got a slap on the wrist during COVID.


...I can go on and on.


I don't understand what those attacking me are defending here.

Justice should be pure and equal to all... Anything less becomes injustice!

u said it all

NinjaMetahuman:
knowing your right means she can appeal the sentence and get bail pending trial like seun kuti.

Read and comprehend.

Seun Kuti's offense was made bailable under 48 hours after his remand, why is this a different case? His bail was only made effective with little make-believe political drama from that time till 23rd May last year. You may need to find out If you don't know.

He didn't need to appeal or claim any right and that's the point here. Don't think you're talking to an ignorant person, nobody is dragging anything with you.

Just stop acting as if you don't know the law is majorly effective when it comes to the lower class in Nigeria.

Peace.

Influential figure's daughter will be in a car, not trekking on the road. She would send her driver or bousegirl and that's the one that will be arrested for crossing thr road.

Is Senator Abbo in jail for assaulting an innocent Love Machine seller?!!

Did I mention Legislature here?!! If laws are made, are they strictly for the poor and unconnected?!!

Should the Judiciary arm of the government be biased or dish out judgement with prejudice?!!


Just jump inside my comment and be acting superior while capping nonsense!!!

Take several seats please.

So as smart as you claim you are, you empty head doesn't tell you that the lawyer you pay to argue your case goes a long way to determine what you get?
If you get a lawyer that can't defend you properly you get the hammer.
Your smart empty head doesn't know why some lawyers charge as high as a billion and other charge 20k.....
Slowpoke

But 7 months is too much nah. In fact, there should be an option of fine. It might even happened to be that the said environmental officer was the first
to have harassed her, who knows.

All these yeye magistrates that are under the influence of the govt and only doing the biding of the politicians and govt in power.

This one too much na

7 months

She is lucky I am not the judge. I will give 2 years....

I believe you know that assaulting a law enforcer is a criminal offense?
Crossing of expressway is also an offense,. With an option of fine or jail....and sometimes both....... Ignorance of the law is not an excuse.

booblacain:


In the UK, the law is not a respecter of status or wealth, here is Nigeria the law only flexes it's power on poor people.

Why poor people self no dey obey the law?

On the same pedestrian bridge wey bad boys dey rub people....can they also install military men on those bridges....I no dey talk of police ooooo

The military has no business there. It is the work of the police.
