You are talking about 6 years! Did you see the part where he had an option of paying 3 million naira and moving on with the rest of the laundered loot?

That one committed double offences: 1. Getting involved in money laundering. 2. Not being related to the former governor!

Lucky Igbenidion's brother just so we are clear. And unfortunately for them in 29 days they won't have some corruption encouraging president to go and get amnesty from. It seems some semblance of order is beginning to fall into place with just the announcement of a PDP loss. It seems people just have a sense that it is no longer going to be business as usual in 29 days.

I hope they made him cough up the money though, we need to start asking for refunds!

Where do we get it all wrong? A Governor's brother stole in billions and he's being asked to pay just 3mil then go on an enjoy the rest of the loot, while an aide is sentence to 20 years without an option of fine. What happens to their master that sent them on this erand? The judicial system needs total cleansing.

What is the way forward Nigeria!!!' Steal 25bn and pay just 3million to bail yourself What a nice investment. The dude that might not even make up to a million in the deal got 20years? It's high time "public funds embezzlement" comes with a very strict punishment just like the Indonesia issue. So sure a lot of people planning to smuggle drugs into the country would have a change of mind right now.
