Symphony007: i respectfully totally disagree with you. Those men are free agents and those weapons they were carrying are illegal cause they have no permission to sell it in nigeria and they were never given permission to even stray into nigerian waters. If that ship was the property of the russian government and had permission to enter nigeria, sergie lavrov won't be pleading for the nigerian government for an out of court settlement, this case must be seen to it's very end to send a message to the world that we're not one spineless african country.

even oif ir claim were true,
First, u didn't catch them sellin.
Second, their govt claimed otherwise...so?

Unbelieveable!!!

If Nigerians illegally ship arms to Russia on a Nigerian vessel, they would NOT be released on bail to the Nigerian Embassy! If a Nigerian was caught with an illegal firearm in Ngeria, is he released to his Family/Solicitor to be produced when required by the Court? Money changed hands or Russian pressure/threats?

We get ****** abroad and AT HOME!

Unbelievable!!!
