he be like am i dreaming?

Make him chop beans small.

Can we have a special account where monies recovered from our polithiefians are kept which will be transparent to the public. We have had in the very recent past that monies are being recovered but nobody seems to know where these monies are. This would have been another cheap source of fund to run the economy.

The other cheap source is taxation. Rather than looking for corrupt persons which is not really necessary since everybody in Nigeria as at now seems to be corrupt at different levels, it will be wise to use taxation as a means of getting excess fund from nigerian citizens and foreigner who have deviced means of extorting monies from the weak nigerian structure.

I am sure EFCC, currently lack capacity to act as the refree as well as the lines man to curb the enormous level of corruption in our society. Don't let us deceive ourselves, corruption has become a game in Nigeria for which the players compete for laurel. Oh ! How are the mighty falling, a whole Sule Lamido. I am almost sure there is no politician in the last 30 years or so who has not done what the almighty Lamido did. It takes a lot of time to prosecute one single case. So, where is EFCC or any other prosecuting agency start from.

Lesson learned steal and invest it abroad

No immunity again, I just hope dat the 125 mills can be used to create more jobs for our youths, but No it won't, no be naija we dey,dis country tire me , I swear

PDP supporters, please come up with a defense for the guy... some sort of sentiment... we are waiting.

Ode nii eee..Did the case start under Buhari?Did the son forfeit twenty thousand dollars to the Federal Govt under Buhari?You are nothing but a fool and a propangadist..Idiot

You are the baboon here if you are attempting to attribute this development to GEJ. YOU must be really mentally derailed or blind or both.

AwesomelyMade:
My only problem is that these guys will be given first class treatment in prison

First class or no first class treatment.... Prison ain't a good place to be.

No, you're a sorcerer. This guy ought to have been jailed since if not for the fact that he was a PDP member.

buzquet:
Yes!!!!!!!!! The change has commenced!!!!! Sai baba. Even if PMB dey coma, he will still b miles ahead of d clueless, shoeless otuoke drunk**d!

governance dey like courses, person A fit dey good at maths, physics, chemistry, biology but generally poor at english while person B dey sound in english but ultimately poor in maths, n other science courses.
Sending people to prison is not good govrnance, if at d end of his tenure he succeeds in sending all politicians of pdp scion to prison n we the unemployed youth still roam d street of naija in search of jobs, power is still not constant, pensioners like my mum n others r still being shortchange n cheated, nigerians are still living below the poverty line of less than a dollar n some fraction cent a day, nigerians still clamouring for change n we r still buying fuel at 120 naira per litre n most times at a higher cost, we r still importing d commonest things like toothpick, sugar, rice, fuel, fabrics etc.......bobo that s exemplary f a i r l u r e!

A former governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido, his two sons Aminu and Mustapha and one Aminu Wada Abubakar are to remain in Kano Central Prsion till September 28, 2015.

The quartet were remanded in prison custody Thursday morning by Justice Evelyn Anyadike of the Federal High Court sitting in Kano after they were docked on a 28-count charge of corruption and money laundering brought against them by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

They were arraigned alongside four companies where the Lamidos are believed to have interest.

The companies are Bamaina Holdings Limited, Bamiana Company Nigeria Limited, Bamaina Aluminum Limited and Speeds International Limited.

Lamido is said to have abused his position as governor of Jigawa State between 2007 and 2015, by awarding contracts to companies where he has interest, using his two sons, Aminu and Mustapha as front.

One of the counts in the charge reads, “That you Alhaji Sule Lamido (while being the Governor of Jigawa State, Nigeria), Aminu Sule Lamido, Mustapha Sule Lamido, Bamaina Holdings Limited, Bamaina Company Nigeria Limited and Speeds International Limited between 15th October and 18th December, 2008 within the jurisdiction of this Honourable Court did convert an aggregate sum of N124, 649, 915 (One Hundred and Twenty Four Million, Six Hundred and Forty Nine Thousand, Nine Hundred and Fifteen Naira) paid by Dantata & Sawoe Limited into the account of Speeds International Limited domiciled with an old generation Bank at Kano which fund you reasonably ought to have known to be proceeds of an unlawful act of Alhaji Sule Lamido who was a Public Officer within the meaning of the Code of Conduct for Public Officers as prescribed under the Fifth Schedule of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 ( as amended ) to wit; engaging in private business by a public officer, using the said company in which he is a director and a shareholder, and to whose account he is a signatory; with the aim of concealing the illicit origin of the said sum and you thereby committed an offence punishable under Section 14 (A) of the Money Laundering Act, 2004.”

However when the charges were read to the accused persons they pleaded not guilty.

Their counsel, Offiong Offiong, SAN told the court that he had filed application for bail and urged the court to consider granting the accused persons bail.

But prosecuting counsel, Chile Okoroma, requested for time to respond to the application.

He prayed the court to remand the accused persons in prison custody as the EFCC holding facilities in Abuja and Kano were already overstretched.

Justice Anyadike consequently remanded the accused persons in prison custody pending consideration of their bail application and adjourned to September 28, 2015.

After the judge’s pronouncement, a mild drama ensued between Lamido and the Deputy Chief Registrar of Federal High court, Barrister Solomon Akpedah.

Lamido was asked to proceed to board the waiting van taking him to Kano central prison when he exclaimed, “you mean I’m now a prisoner?!”.

Akpedah, however, replied that “no sir, you are not a prisoner”.

The arraignment of Lamido and his children was not without incident as an unruly crowd of supporters loyal to the former governor threatened to disrupt the court session.

It took reinforcement of the detachment of policemen at the court to maintain order.

The travails of the Lamidos began in 2012 when one of his sons, Aminu was arrested by Operatives of the EFCC at the Aminu Kano International Airport, Kano for failing to declare a sum of forty thousand United States Dollars ($40,000).

He was prosecuted and convicted with 50 percent of the undeclared sum forfeited to the Federal Government.

But the enquiries into the source of the funds led investigators into the closely guarded web of corruption and money laundering involving members of the former first family of Jigawa State and their cronies.

Look around you Sule there are bars on the windows.
You are where you and your offsprings should rot.

Kudos to this present government in area of sound justice and crusader of corrupt free society. Thorough public disgrace should be allotted to any power drunk office holders who abused his authority during service. I am strongly believe that this will serve as a deterrent to those who cares to listen. Looking forward to seeing more polithievians in ikoyi prison.

as if u know my mind my bro. how i wish they'd be. treated like how we know ordinary prisoners are obviously beign treated

Sule Lamido is the best thing that ever happened to us in Jgawa.

We will forever support him...

And remain loyal to him...

He made us what we were today...

He is the father of modern Jigawa...

He give us hope and make us proud...

Lamido is the only Governor that built a state single-handedly...

Lamido built State Secretariat, University, School of Nursing, Several Housing Estates, Airport, TV Station, School of Agric, State High Court, Thousands of Primary and Secondary Schools, Township Roads with street light in all 27 LGAs, Specialist Hospital, 1000KM Roads linking towns and villages, to mention but a few...

Buhari, OBJ, IBB, Gowon all asked him where is he getting the money used for executing all these projects...

...but since he refused to join APC, anything can happened to him...

1bunne4lif:
No! How can he be a prisoner? HE'S A PRISON WARDEN

. Who him de ask? He would have ask the judge. Let him pay for the role he played in 2015 general election. Lamido did not in a day used the word support jonathan instead he kip saying pdp will win in his state. Anu mpama

Big man,big wahala

Most people on nairaland just jump into conclusion... What kind of prison term is a few months till September... If na yahoo boy dem catch how long will the court give him? 15 - 20 years... 9ja is bleeped

No sir, "you are now an international observer at the prisons"

The Buharist Zombies don't know that sooner or later it will be Fashola and Tinubu on the list.

Buhari is doing what he did in 1984.

Arresting and jailing Politicians is not to curb corruption but rather to block any future opposition he may have.

Buhari hs truly hit the ground running.


He did this in 1984 and the Plebs celebrated this .

After the Politicians he gagged the Press with Decree 4 from where he took his despotism to the Plebs on the streets who by the time they realized had no politician or opposition figure to fight for their right, the press were gagged and they saw themselves living in a big barrack nation.

It took the efforts of IBB and other senior military officers to rid Nigeria of this power drunk despot.

But today we don't have that option.

Shout Change!

Speak english please. you're not making sense

quid:
When will IBB go to jail for the missing 12 billion dollars which was part of oil-windfall from the first Gulf war?

you ever reasoned which mkney was used in building Abuja? IBB might not be a saint but most if the money was for building Abuja.

Somebody should please Tap that oga so that he may realized that its reality not dream and not even ordinary dream this is his greatest nightmere.Ole

ECOTERRORS:
Sule lamido was NEVER a front runner for the post of presidency

OBJ nominated him to be future president and Amaechi as his vice

That's when the witch-hunt of the duo started by the GEJ presidency

Lamido backed off quickly but Amaechi refused to be cowed

No sir u are not a prisoner u are just going there for course

Before nko?

Those who says PMB is slow say una dev see wetin dev happen, you never see anything. Restoring sanity to our nation take a man with the will power and sincerity. I am sure so many other are adjusting for the fear of unknown. Stealing is corruption
