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.

I was thinking this too. Our judge are something else. They don't think

Did you read the part where she assaulted a law enforcement officer.
Do you know what would have happened to her here in London of she trys that?

Before you start comparing money laundering by politicians and theft, armed robber and kidnapping etc simply go and read up what the law says about this things.

Didn't you finish primary school? Or you were among those jumping school fence to go throw sticks at unripe mangos.
We were thaught about the 3 arms of government, you should know the responsibilities of each, so slamming the judiciary for laws made by the legislature tells me something interesting....

You only need to see how it is done somewhere else to see that many of those pedestrian bridges are themselves aides to death. How good is the health of people compelled to ascend and descend the bridges? How many of them have eaten good food in recent times? Do they even have anything in the stomachs at all? Yet you are forcing them to climb those things that Tinubu, Atiku, and Obi would avoid like a plague? In other climes where people are well-fed, they don't even have to use those kinds of energy-draining constructions to move across roads. Zebra crossings, pelican crossings, puffin crossings, toucan crossings, pegassus crossings, etc are there for them. Overhead pedestrian bridges are common across railway lines. That is why you can see their young, old, and pregnant ones moving freely everywhere.

sentencing should be tantamount to the offense and there should be an option for a fine depending on the gravity of the offense.

7months is traumatizing for a young lady with such offense. Pls they should allow her pay fine are reduce the jail term.

verifiablefacts:


They said she assault the officer join,so small small oga.

Yeah?!! Seun Kuti slapped an officer (big time assault)... Please, how many months in prison dem give am?!!

hakeem4:
They should also put enough KIA people along that ojota, cause people are deliberately crossing the highway whilst ignoring the pedestrian bridge

That one na normal even when KIA been dey there. Why? KIA dry look face. If dem see say you fit give them wahala, dem go leave you. Bike dey follow one way and dem no send.

How many months in prison did Seun Kuti get, Mr. Learned Lawyer?!!

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.

Good. There must be discipline.

But if the girl is a fan of the man that gets ideas from mad men, her fellow osu that plunged the country into the current balabluistic situation by staging the first coup, will be shouting tribalism.

Eko obi baje ooo.

We are still waiting for the agulu slave and ezekwesimess to protest against the demolition happening in anambra

On asiwaju's progressive mandate I stand gidigba.

I'm pleading on her behalf with the prisons wardens to always give her thick beans meal all the duration of her stay because her mouth for cry no good at all.

PepeXKermit:


if you ever think a Nigeria of 50years in future can be a UK of today or even 40years ago, dream on, it is also safe to say you have never travelled out before.

Okay

Babs2424:
we will never get a Nigeria like UK

Oh well!

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.

No lies

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!

Truly a shame that someone can be sentenced for 7+ months for such a minor offense. The judge wants to make an example of them, yet they will just grow to hate the system, as many of us already do. That's definitely uncalled for. She could be told to pay a fine, simple. 7 months is entirely inhumane. That's not justice, on any standard. Please, someone should appeal.

Prisons in Nigeria are made for the poor and small criminals. The rich and powerful criminals never go to prison.

Seriously you're making a point,Nigeria is another world entirely. A world where things are done in a different ways.A world where you tell somebody 'l dey come o' when you meant bye bye,

yes ooh, Ojota has two bridges yet, those crossing the express will be causing serious traffic, while task force officials watching helplessly

It was her life she endangered not yours. So let her live her life the way she wants.🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓

Lagos officials are touts. People still cross road in advance countries.

Train your driver's on road signs. Zebra crossing etc. Stop wasting money on rubbish.

Also, put kai to arrest govt agencies public office holders and above who are nonchalant on our Lagos roads,they are so annoying plying one way like maniacs with unplated vehicles which is more criminal endangering people on the road

good for her that's why they misbehave all the time .lagos is ours lagos is ours le her go and cool off in prison there .

b0rn2fuck:
I don't know why people get mind, if motor kils person for your front before, nobody go tell you to cross while seeing bridge even far away.. .
1. Motor carry person for front, she landed at the back. She follow crowd cross then while she was the last, she didn't see the last vehicle, that one happen for mowe
2. Another, the man just dey waka jeje beside road, the motor wake jeje go meet him for road side kill him
3. I won't disclose the one at CMS and Maryland while I was still in Lagos then. Almost 6 experience,I won't there cross road even if the bridge is far

how many ppl motor dey kill? How many accidents happen? Very few, They should focus more on one way. You can't expect ppl to be climbing high bridge up and down. Developed cities use crosswalks

CaptainGo:


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

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.

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.

Oya na, if they choose to be knocked down by moving vehicles, they should let them be .

This should be a non-committal sentence, that is, community service or fine, why send such person to a prison, it doesn't makes sense.

If she was one of these cursed igbos now, you will be hearing "they hate us" "we are the target " that region is a pathetic region of corruption and victim card players" the next u will start seeing is hash tag "They hat igbos" "Free the igbo girl" all over social media. now that she is a yoruba , silence is everywhere. Yorubas dont habor criminals , bad moral or behavior and don't play victim card.
