StOla:Why exactly is the judge and the SAN on trial? The DSS claimed the lawyer gave gifts to his wife and children while adjudicating in cases where the lawyer was in court. So how exactly is this case different 6 Likes |

genearts: N15 million per case. OK. And Buhari had up 70 SANs that represented him in that case. That means he spent as much as a billion naira on dat case instead of just presenting the certificate? 28 Likes 2 Shares |

There's no difference between Buhari and any other Nigerian politician. The only thing is some people are good keeping low profile. 13 Likes 1 Share |

OKDnigeria: Are you telling me parents don't give their fellow parents who are friends or family such amount when celebrating their birthdays or their children's wedding? How much do you think it cost to rent a hall for a social engagement for people in that social class? A hall on the mainland of Lagos ooo, not even on the Island or highbrow areas of Abuja? We are not talking about a local government gate man whose daughter is getting married and whose friends are also languishing in poverty. If the lawyer who also happens to be Buhari's lawyer at that time, had given the judge N20m or N50m, then we would all have no doubt it was a bribe given under the excuse of a convenient wedding gift. But not a paltry N500k gift. Is that suppose to be money for Suya or for the judge to buy a plot of land at Ifo? It seems you don't even know how much lawyers charge politicians in this democratic era of electoral disputes and corruption suits. Ask the likes of Mike Ozekhome how much he charges for retainership, talkless of charges for the actual briefs. Then imagine how much most of the notable tier1 lawyers charge. You think every lawyer is a charge and bail lawyer that's why you think N500k is big money for a wedding gift to a parent. 2 Likes |

StOla: Then why was Ozekhome's bank acct frozen for having #75 million in the acct. The money is now being suspected to be a proceed of corruption. Is it because it was paid by Fayose? 15 Likes 1 Share |
Re: "Gift Or Bribe, Buhari Has Shown Us The Way" - Reno Omokri by StOla: 12:09am On Feb 23, 2017 |
OKDnigeria: Same issue of convenience or coincidence of the event with a case or client at the same time. But can Ozekhome have that much in his bank account with the calibre of high profile briefs he now handles after he jettisoned social activism? The answer is a resounding yes. The paper trail of the frozen funds will determine if he will regain it or not. If it is determined that whoever paid the money got it as a proceed of corruption, then despite having earned it legally for his services, the money must be returned to the public purse while the client looks for his own private money to pay his private lawyer. Some lawyers just help review contracts etc and make tens of millions. Afe Babalola once made around N500m just advising PDP briefly as a legal consultant during OBJ's reign. It caused an uproar then, but the legal luminary cared less about lay man opinion on what he considered was his duly agreed fees. Some go to supreme court to argue electoral cases and make enough money to have their own mansion in Lekki. Many top law firms make a revenue of over N1b annually. How they manage the costs that brought in the income, determines how much profit they make eventually. Note however, the senior partners in these law firms are the ones enjoying most of the profits with first class air tickets and holiday getaways in Europe for a large family, while the junior lawyers who do all the research and prepare the briefs only for a so called legal luminary to go shine in the glory of a court victory, earn a pittance as salary till they can move up drastically in the firm or have their own firm and briefs. If N500k is what it takes for a high profile case of a presidential politician to be adjudicated favourably at a federal high court, then I reckon magistrates would as well be taking bribes of recharge cards to give justice to its buyer. 3 Likes |

Chuksonyeike: That someone is a poor man. Many have millions in that same MMM and have moved on to other economic pursuits without thinking of taking their lives over the loss. N500k is an appropriate gift from a rich lawyer to a highly placed judge who is a close friend and who happened to be father of the bride. Leave Buhari out of your desperation to perpetuate corruption. 2 Likes 1 Share |

StOla: It is not conceivable that a learned, experienced SAN would be oblivious to the glaring ethical implications of GIFTING a judge presiding over an important case of which is he, the SAN, is the defending counsel. Even the stupidest, the most ignorant layperson would understand that a Senior Advocate, one who is assumed to know and be the champion of legal ethics, should not under any circumstances, have outside courtroom contacts, talkless of giving a GIFT, even if a Penny, to a judge presiding over a case, a very politically important case of great national significance, of which the Senior lawyer is the defending lawyer. No layperson could make such a thoughtless, monumental error, talkless of a legal luminary representing a presidential candidate, unless the senior lawyer knew exactly the nature and envisaged reward for the GIFT giving . 14 Likes |

Nigeria my country. So let us get something straight. The SAN in question is only PMBs lawyer and no one else's? Is that even possible? Let us assume it was a bribe, the bribe couldn't be from any of the SAN's clients? It had to be from PMB, now, because Justice Ademola is in trouble? Is this not a cheap lie and blackmail? The same kind Ngwuta tried to pull when he claimed Amaechi tried to bribe him too, and after he refused, they sent DSS and EFCC at him? So PMB wants to bribe a sitting judge in a case of such high magnitude and popularity, then he uses 500k ![]() ![]() 500k is now sufficient enough to buy cases in Nigeria when GEJs people would have paid the judge well over ten times that number so the case could favor them. Yet Justice Ademola collected the 500k? I think this issue is as asinine as asinine can be. 1 Like |

I think Lawal Daura and Malami the Justice minister should be sacked. These guys have brought nothing but ridicule to the President. During the course of the investigation into Ademola's case, the DSS admitted discovering that Buhari's lawyer was close to Ademola and even gave him a N500,000 gift for his daughters wedding (which is verifiable and correct), a gift that wasn't in any way connected to Buhari or his case, the prosecution should have dropped that line of argument immediately. Ademola's defence brought that matter up because the entire case is predicated on the fact that Agi, another close friend of Ademola paid Ademola for judicial favours which Ademola is claiming were gifts from a friend. Instead of pursuing that argument further, they should have dropped it promptly and probably tried to get Ademola on the weapons possession charge. This is a lesson to everyone, especially lawyers. We must learn to clearly distinguish our professional lives from our personal lives. While it is true that Awodehin and Ademola are childhood friends and the money was indeed a donation from the lawyer for Ademola's daughters wedding, it was very unprofessional for the lawyer to make that donation at the same time he had a case before the judge. After all that was one of the reasons the NJC sited for removing the chief judge of Enugu who accepted donations from Prince Arthur Eze during a book launch while he had a case pending before his court. 6 Likes |
