The fools you ve bn supporting what have they done for you
64yrs Nigeria sold crude oil nd can't feed the nation shame on you that I'm sharing this country with you

Which way Nigeria

Cyberterror:
I saw it coming. One prophet even prophesied that Orji Kalu will emerge the next President in 2023 and some people laughed at the Prophet saying a prisoner cannot be president.

my own is not prophet but a man from akwa ibom told me they will release him last week, that they are grooming the corrupt idiot's for leadership of this, I was busy arguing with him, this country is shame.

In order to fully fight corruption in Nigeria, the judiciary MUST BE ABOLISHED

I tell una say ma film trick from day 1.

Tissaia:
Awesome! They tried to humiliate him but when it's comes to scheme of things, like in politics we know better

They tried to humiliate him? Just listen to urself. The rich keep plundering our common wealth, yet we still take sides with them. Dude stole Abia State dry...this country is a huge joke

calm down I'm just joking

oyindamex:
Many persons on nairaland don't read. The supreme court ordered for a retrial not an acquittal based on the irregularity of the former trial conducted so basically he's not off the hook.

It ain't a matter of reading, we just know the nature of how these things go in Nigeria. THIS CASE IS AS GOOD AS DEAD

TGM2015:
Supreme Court order for retrial.

He has not been acquitted. He is to start his trial afresh.

He still have cases to answer. The emphasis is necessary.

You can"t read the script, can you?

If technicality affects Judgement who get penalized?

mrvitalis:
Now he is set to contest under APC being a loyal boy if the north all this year's ...Tinubu and osibanjo just got served

Of course, he is, but I can assure u he won't come 4th in the primary, being an Igbo man has damaged him already.

Captainrambo2:
What sort of country is this ?

This was what abaribe asked the aboki called tanko

"What will you do about the supreme court pronouncing judgments based on technicalities" ?, tanko could not answer.

Just see this stupid thief walking out... daaaaamn

Forget Abaribe . He is an IPOB Senator

If all these things we see happening today happen in the 70's the military would have taken over this government. Every facets of this country reeks of corruption.

Tissaia:

Sweet heart!

[The Truth is the guy stole to some extent but under his governance workers weren't owed, roads in a Aba were still pliable, and he made sure the "common wealth" was well distributed. The only mistake he made was putting T.A orji who now stole abia dry and also to some extent allowing his mother to have a say in the government. Aside these, the man is good really.

mrvitalis:

As long as it's not a Yoruba man no p

North messed it up ...let them fix it

Yoruba man will be Nigeria president in 2023, u can get ur sniper ready.

This is not necessary I think but rather should be wary of the elite stealing the future of our common country!

In Nigeria: Money talks, Bullshit walks.

More politicians from other parties are going to join APC fast

I think this is the power of IPOB.

LaIabobo:
Look as the reason for nullifying the conviction.
This is purely a bought judgement.

Some times we need to cut this judges some slack. The basis of this judgement is fair to Kalu, the lower court should be blamed. The judge that sentenced Kalu did not have any power to do so. Be it technical as it is, it is a strong point for the defence under law. The supreme Court couldn't have done otherwise once it was proven, so we cannot blame them. Infact, doing the opposite would be complete miscarriage of Justice against the defendant. He may be guilty but a new judge, qualified to pronounce it under the law will have to do so.

Thank God. Welcome back, dear OUK

this was what my people told us in early 80s that work in Nigeria govt and steal money .then go to jail no wahala

Well said.

With those folks there is no tribe when they are pillaging.

However, they quickly bring up and sponsor tribal sentiments when they fallout.

KC031:

The Supreme Court nullified and ordered fresh trials so Orji Uzor Kalu is not totally free yet

Nigeria is already sold and bought by some powerful brokers... if you aren't enlightened to see..you should see that now...anything goes...

Mysticwebb:
Supreme court judges are no longer reliable. Nobody argued whether he stole the money or not, they just got paid to focus on technicalities bordering on jurisdiction to set him free.
Fighting corruption indeed.

It depends on what the appellant brought forward before the judge. U don't expect the judge to be look into what is not before him.
Blame the council representing fg, cause why ll they allow a judge that was already appointed as Appeal court to deliver judgement.

He is not walking out; the case is being re-assigned for fresh trial because the judge who found him guilty, was already a Justice and therefore (technically) should not have presided over the case.

Nigeria we hail thee!

Now that Abba Kyari is out, we will see alot of reversals!

The only real crime in Nigeria is poverty, no matter what you do NEVER BE POOR. - Cosef 21/07/2019

So this flimsy reason is why this man would get away, not whether or not he really stole the money

Nigeria is amazing.

I think you are the bigger fool for rejoicing over the freedom of a brazenly corrupt politician because IPOB wants him behind the bars

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere

There are lots of disgustingly annoying kids on Nairaland
