The prosecution had on April 12, 2013, arraigned Sarah , on one count of culpable homicide . Delivering judgment , Justice Peter Affen , discharged Ogah for lack of diligent prosecution . Okeke held that the prosecution failed to prove his case beyond reasonable doubts , saying that the two prosecution witnesses were not present at the scene of the alleged crime. He held that their testimonies and evidence had no bearing on the case , saying their evidence was not in relation to what they saw with their own eyes . The Judge said their evidence as to how the deceased met his death or what directly caused it was controvertible and not admissible under section 126 ( a ) of the Evidence Act , 2011 to prove the cause of the death of the deceased.

Viking007: Boss. You won't believe if I tell you that I have funded more than half of the beneficiaries on the funding list overnight. Yet, they are keeping quiet over it because they don't want to jeopardise their chances of getting another one from innobets free 400k. I will fund the last batch by 1pm. I will have loved to come to the thread to defend myself but I am banned from the business section for the next two weeks. Nairalanders are the most hypocritical set of people on the internet. 6 Likes 1 Share |

That money is too small for you, a man most of us respected on the thread, to suddenly become a chameleon. 2 Likes |
