But Tinubu and Atiku is walking free and you are campaigning for thieves. The jokes on you.
Have they been convicted by any court of competent jurisdiction within the Federal Republic of Nigeria?

They are as guilty, or as innocent as your own father.

Lol... So money laundering is not a criminal act. You make me laugh in Swahili. We will see how a convict will be the spokesman of a presidential candidate.

Do you know that if you buy Securities above 50k in cash, you have breached the law? Do you also know that if you carry out a transaction above 5m as an individual and the person pays you in cash you don enter?

Can you see that the conviction is not about what the money was used for but rather around the fact that he took the money in cash?

Do you know that the person that gave him this cash is a free man? It's clearly political bro.

Some of us are familiar with the law. Question is: Is money laundering a criminal act or not? Leave the long story.

Lol. He's not a convict. Look at the judgement. Hey didn't say he stole money. They said he recieved cash which was more than allowed.

Go to school many of you refused, once u are convicted, u are an ex convict whether u serve jail or u take the option of fine, except for civil cases like slander, or traffic offence or contempt of court. Okupe by his conviction and payment of fine is now an ex convict and can no longer hold public office. But Obi is free to keep him as DG oh, that's not public office but it actually tells us how shallow Obi is, he can't even do due diligence on his appointees, what a calamity, what a disaster

That doesn't make him less a convict. Jail or Not. EFCC should also appeal the judgement. Too linient.

How is it lenient?

Do you even know the flimsy charge against the guy? He's charged with accepting cash payment above what's stipulated by law. That is, he accepted too much money in cash. There would have been no problems if he accepted a cheque of that same amount.

No one should go to jail for that. Fine is the way to go

Lol I can't believe Peter Obi made this guy VP placeholder and DG of his campaign while he still had a pending court case.

What sort of miscalculation is this, Obviously Obi hasn't finished his apprenticeship under his boss Atiku.

He better ends his campaign and learn more.

Vote Atiku say no to rookies and drug barons
Littlesarah we reject Atiku. We ll rather manage Kwankwaso. Atiku = bad luck

They thought they could use Okupe's case to stain Obi movement it is damn too late to stop the moving train,Buhari came and turned the fruitful land into a wilderness just in the space of less than 8years.We need neither APC nor PDP at the critical time but a paradigm shift.

So Doyin Okupe is a Convict already? Let's wait to see whether a CONVICTED FELON can participate in partisan politics, as an official of a party or as Candidate's stalwart.

This is a tweet made by his lawyer. He says Okupe is a victim.of the Money Laundering Act, which is why the court gave him the payment option.
Okupe will pay N500,000 for each of of the counts he was found guilty of.

Do you know you can be found guilty of armed robbery if you ask for money owed you with a bottle in your hand?

I am sure EFCC will appeal that judgement. The sentence is a slap in the wrist for stealing 200 million. Obi is surrounded by thieves and rogues who ruined nigeria by embezzling our wealth. And they are claiming to be saints and want to give us a new era. They are scammers. Nigerians will vote Tinubu and he will win this election.

We already know that useless judge ojukwu is an ipob sympathiser that is why he is giving Doyin Okupe an option of only 500k.
The judge supposed to be stoned to death.

Payment of Fine or not, he's an ex convict and he required Pardon of Mr President before he can hold any position in government or be on the Board of any quoted company in Nigeria or he waits for 10 yrs. This is the position of the law. When we said Doyin Okupe is a thief you obidients said we were lying. He was part of the rot in the system. Obasanjo called him Okupe ole. He stole from Jonathan too but he's quick to abuse Tinubu. You obidients made him a saint since he began to labour in vain.

Pay fines or go to jail, makes no difference, you are still a common criminal and ex-convict, a crooked and corrupt man, a thief and a dishonorable human being.
