This judgement portrays danger

This shows the opposition and perceived enemies of the president will never get a fair hearing in court as long as Buhari keeps lording over the judiciary.

400million for what Is this where Buhari and his incompetent finance minister hopes to source for funds after the fall in oil price undecided

So u want them to collect IMF loan?Ur blindness to reality is alarming.For the first time in so many years,people who looted our money are paying thru dea noses.Don't worry,we will soon get to the turn of APC touts.

IVORY2009:


Just a simple question, have you heard of the word "Warrant of arrest" and the question is does the EFCC have such @ as the time of re-arresting that individual @ the front of the court or behind the court like you rightly put it. The answer is NO

Are u a Staff of EFCC?How can u just conclude that there is no warrant of Arrest?The fact that guilty people are sweating is enuf.We need to encourage this administration.The crooks/politiefcians are so smart dat dey will use the Judiciary to frustrate the fight against corruption.PMB has outsmarted them and that is what he is expected of him.

If the right mode of arrest is followed and the person arrested is found guilty, such an individual should be behind bars, irrespective of the party such an individual belongs to (APC, PDP, APGA)

U got the idea. When they were talking to him like a gentleman he was arrogant that he can never refund any money. Dasuki that cooperated with efcc is he a fool? What menthu will pay now will be more than the yam he ate. What a lesson? I dey laugh. By the time he comes out his life will never remain the same.

400 million for 400 million........ that's a good deal by the government...

Was judiciary not compromised b4? Spare me ur sentiment. Did methu collect the money or not? Was the money meant for arms purchase? May be u dont even undestand the situation in the country. People have bled this country dry and u are talking of judiciary that will only punish a poor man that stole 5000 naira and leave a big man that stole billions unpunished. Nonsense and bias judiciary.

This is total executive interference with the judiciary and this would spell doom for Nigeria in the long run. As at today the penal code on corruption has not been amended to my knowledge. when another person stole pension fund to the tune of 6 billion and the culprit was granted bail in lower ridiculous sum with an option of 6 months in prison, so how come somebody with mere N400 million was given a bail, in the same amount in question with additional N200 million in surety. Our judiciary has been compromised and i pity this country. A government of vendetta.

He is already treading with care if that bail money was less than that he would have seen me throwing stone at him myself.

Interesting.

People mustn't misappropriate funds meant for some other purposes. Sin complicates life.

But why the difference in treatment?

Anyone under prison custody will be handcuffed. EFCC or DSS may choose not to handcuff their accused persons. There is your answer.

But it hass not been proven yet. If it is, then I'm all for the puniahment. But the fg and media court has already sentenced him even before trial start mainly due to his political affiliation. Let him have a fair hearing. Simple.

There must be opposition in everything. Everybody can't be on the same page with you. Even God almighty faces opposition.

1. You are making it sound as if there's no basis for the arrest and prosecution of Metuh and co.
2. Consequent on arrest is prosecution in court. The issue of FG and media sentencing him does not arise at all. Has the treatment meted out to Metuh different from same to Tafa Balogun? Or was that also a case of FG and the media "court" sentencing him?
3. If you truly believe that Metuh should be duly punished if found guilty, then you should be more interested in allowing the case to run it's course than crying wolf where there is non.
4. Yes there must be opposition to this current government, but that opposition should not be afraid to defend allegations leveled against them, rather than shouting witch-hunting. For the sake of our democracy, that opposition must be credible and not-corrupt

And the way tafa balogun was manhadled was justified? And you didnt know that tafa was subjected to an unfair media trial too? What is crying foul about raising objections about the way citizens are treated unfairly? Is the case being allowed to run its course without undue media influence? If obj, yar adua and gej had persecuted any perceived opposition as the new govt. Is doing, would there have been any opposition left? Speaking about corruption, are there no memebers of the new cabinet with pending corruption cases/allegations against them?

Do you even understand the concept of democracy? Or how the judicial system works? Or do you mostly speak based on sentiments? Don't think I'm trying to sway your thoughts as you are fargone down your path, I'm only pointing out issues that need addressing.

1. Except you just want to stay obstinate, you need to assess your values. But pray tell, where were you when Tafa Balogun was in handcuffs? What was the outcome of Tafa's trial? Was he innocent or did the court not find him guilty?
2. You will rather support someone that embezzled under the mirage of democracy? if that's your democracy, then I'm not part of it. Tell me more, how does the judicial system work? Did the judge find anything wrong in the handcuffs on the hands of both? was it in the judge's statements?
3. Undue media influence? grin grin grin grin grin You're one of the most ridiculous people I have ever encountered. What do you call undue media influence? That the media should not report, because it is Metuh or Tafa? or that the media should have swayed it in Metuh's favour? The media to me is not even doing her work to standard. I would have expected a high level media sting investigative exploits to dig out more.........

Ok.... Lets check out undue infleunce of the media in global misdemweanor cases

1. Jeff Skilling the former CEO of Enron -



2. Domineque Straus-Khan - former IMF boss arrested for sexual assault



3. Anrew Fastow of Enron - same as 1 above

just to name a few. Were these people too subjected to.......what was it you called that rubbish? Unfair media trial?

I wonder where your moral compass is pointing you to, that is if you have any. Meanwhile, if the government must have opposition, not people that have soiled their hands, not only looting the treasury, but also directly causing the death of citizens and sending what's left to IDP camps.

Typical banter of an uninformed person. Where in my comments did I refer to handcuffs? Tafa's case that I mentioned you still havent answered if the fg was justified in manhdling him the way they did or you are deliberately blind to that while trying to save face by poating pictures of westerners in hdcuffs.

Why is the fg refusing to have an open trial on Dasuki but is quick to run to the media with mischievious allegations aimed at denigrating his image? Why won't they try him openly and let us all know how the yams were shared and consider if punishments meted out to the guilty parties are at variance with the provisions of the law?
Hypocrisy!

Tinubu, Fashola, Amaechi, Aregberascal, Audu Ogbeh, Atiku, Obasanjo, Rochas, just to mention a few were part of the opposition that brought about the change in power. Don't a lot of these men have indictments and civil and criminal cases against them and what was it you said about moral compass again and looting of treasury?

My fri3nd separate sentiments from constitutionality and legality. You personal conviction is just that...personal. It has little bearing on what is the law. Are these men accused regardless of party affiliations being given a fair opportunity at proving their innocence as they claim? No!

I unlike you, will not pronounce them guilty until they have been fairly tried. I do not have any affiliation with any of them, neither do I trust anybody but God. Go back and read my very first comment on this thread and compare with all the balderash you have been spewing here. This will be my last response to you, it is pointless engaging your type as your sense of fair reasoning takes flight in deferrence to emotions. To each his own. Shallom brother!

1. You sure said a lot here but hardly making sense. You're just struggling at what's dead on arrival.

2. On Tafa Balogun, how then was he manhandled? Is there any other thing in the public domain that you only know? I thought you will be more concerned with the substance that the chaff you're throwing up. I ask again, did the court find Tafa innocent? Wasn't Tafa jailed at the end of the day for illicitly enriching himself? What manhandling are you then talking about? I said it earlier on, your sense of morals is nonexistent.

3. Why is the not trying Dasuki in the open? Typical lame duck question. Dasuki's case bothers on security and FG reserves the right to assess the situation and check the security implications, if it deems if unsafe to try him in the open....for instance, the FG has stated that all prosecution witnesses will have to put on mask to protect their identity. But what's not surprising to me is that you throw some questions from a shallow Base. Is it going to make Dasuki's case any better if he's tried @
Eagle's Square? He's he going to attempt to swallow all the previous statements he's made like Metuh?

4. Cheap referring to Tinubu, Amechi, Fashola and Co. If any of you have any evidence against them why are you not in court? Why are you crying out to the same media you accused of undue influence? Tell you pseudo (and wanna be )opposition , to at least muster all forces and Sue a Fashola. Tinubu was takenot to ICPC and the case was thrown out. Test your mettle in court.

5. Sentiments? Call.it what you like, but the burden of proof are on these men to show that they are innocent. A situation where those that shared in Dasuki's largesse are confessing; some returning Dasuki doled out to them......or is it Metuh that gave a statement and tore inot attempt to consume it. Or his claim of a special assignment for Jonathan cost 400m+, yet the nature and details of that assignment is yet to be revealed.
