Justice Mohammed Idris of the Federal High Court, Lagos, on Thursday, sentenced a former governor of Abia State, Orji Uzor Kalu, to 12 years’ imprisonment.

Kalu was charged with N7.1bn fraud.

The court found him and his co-defendants guilty of the entire 39 counts filed against them by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

Just see how they sent out of the 2023 race in one fell swoop

No peace for the looters irrespective of their regions

enjoy your stay in prison ur new home

Am so happy, next will be T. A orji, rochas, nnamani, igbinedion, tinubu, akpabio, aregbeshola, and obiano

Last last! It's now God be with you OUK.Pass death sentence for corruption NASS no want because that is their safe haven.

Doff my hat for the fearless judge.Learnt OUK was spotted with Tinubu last week to influence the judge for a soft landing.

Nice

When I say it's war against igbos people think I'm joking.

No room to file appeals before committing to jail?

Lol, after depriving your people of basic amenities, selling out your people and pitching against them, you got rewarded.

IPOB will be happy with this development. Serve the zoo and come back disgraced

He should be in prison and in a holding cell

Good. But, shouldn't have taken this long.

I am from Ebonyi.
But I appeal to Buhari to convict and jail every past Igbo Govenror or Politician found guilty of embezzling state fund.

BUT THE SEIZED WEALTH MUST BE RETURNED TO THE STATE GOVERNMENT WHOSE PEOPLE ARE THE RIGHTFUL OWNERS. IT MUST NOT BE SEIZED BY THE FG.

Poor man nah straight to Kirikiri, big man nah holding cell.... This life ehhnnn

Forget these three. Others very possible
Tinubu........party national leader abi chairman, na u wan probe am?

My only issue is why FG should take over SLOK ...its abia money he stole ...Abia state should take it over

With no handcuffs? What in the fake news is this? It is only five years from now if I see legitimate pictures of him serving time with tell tale signs of a prison stay that I'll believe. For now he's only playing to the gallery.

Impressive

This should spread across the six geo-political zones and not just the SE

This is a welcome development

Ewon oloowo
Prison for the rich

How I wish Igbenedion will really be jailed .That man finished my state.

Ifeanyi Ubah is already warming up for his own conviction.

Proudly Igbo

This is only one good thing this government has done to Abia State. I wonder why mother excellence was not charged along.

Nice judgement.

I knew sm1 would throw up d wutch-hunting card

Mr Kalu has been facing trial for over a decade after he was arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for allegedly carting away billions of naira while he served as Abia State governor.
