I beg to disagree with him. Nobody is above the law and the law is not a respecter of persons.

The day we strengthen and enforce our laws to be bigger that any individual, then we will begin to witness sanity in the land.

The government just need to make example of some few individuals. Others will start to fall in line. It is that simple.


Your illiterate bubu of a President is above the law. Were u born yesterday?

Hahahah, some people quoting "No body is above the law, here." Yes! I agree to that. But do you know that "in Nigeria and some parts of Africa," some people are above the law? Maybe you don't know so yoy need to go back to post colonial history of Africa and Nigeria. I'm in total support of the anti-corruption war buhari is fighting, but when you want to talk about politics in a country like Nigeria, we should always know that the primordial sentiment must always come to play, I mean, (She is my sister, from same ethnic group so she shouldn't be probed), etc. What we (Nigeria) need to do is to put up an amendment of the constitution that will severely deal with corrupt politicians, if not, this country will never move forward. Hold any corrupt govt. Official that is corrupt, try him/her and according to the amendment, I will suggest life in prison or death so this country will not die, whether he is from my place or not, when it is enshrined in the constitution to probe, prosecute and punish corrupt leaders if found guilty, I think it will go a long way in making this country a better place and it will go a long way in cleaning the mess that would have ltaken the country backward and then we can beat our chest and say "No body is above the law." Festus Keyamo may not be 1000% correct, but he is correct.

Quite on point. No one should be above the laws of any nation. The reason given by keyamo is baseless and will not stand the test of time.

How can any sane society allow crimes to go unpunished? Guess what, whatever you focus on expands , if you focus on allowing criminals like

The PDP people to go unpunished because you don't want to ridicule an ex-president (criminal), you will likewise encourage other sitting

African head of states to loot their countries blind knowing that when they are out of office, they will be given a soft landing for handing over power peacefully.

National issues with International interest pass employee and employer relationship. I so much detest GEJ's action but you know the tempo and chaos prosecuting him could cause. The disadvantage probably will outweigh the advantage.
Let's leave the guy alone for now.
Leave who? When people are still dying in Maiduguri and NE.

Is it in Nigeria or somewhere in the moon? I repeat PMB don't have the liver to allow GEJ to be investigated, probed and prosecuted. Not in this life.
Wasn't PMB named in the $2.1 billion arm scam? He got two SUVs and don't you think if people like GEJ comes in, more VIPs will be mentioned

Then so be it. We need more VIP to be successfully prosecuted so that others can fall in line.

The scenario in Nigeria is like this. The politicians meet in a secret place at night both from PDP and APC drinking and making merriment and sharing the national cake while during the day they seems to be enemies deceiving the masses.

That's like saying because a thieving ex-employee handed over company properties in his possessions before leaving, he shouldn't be prosecuted. The attempt by 40-Laptop crew to desperately sell us dummy idea via source-less articles is low, so low it is 6 feet underground already.

Hhhhhhmmmm

So for the greater good of Africa, Nigeria should or would not prosecute GEJ?

Is it not possible for other leaders to loot or turn a blind eye to the looting of their countries simply because they would hand over, peacefully, to a new President and therefore not be prosecuted?

Imagine the way these people are trying hard to paint Jonathan black.
Suddenly everyone wants to pretend we didn't know of a former president that came out of jail with less than 100,000 naira in his bank account but ended up having a multimillionaire university, mega million farm, world class presidential library among so many other known and unknown investments and at least he is a multi- billionaire today.
What about all those northern heads of states both dead and alive whose acquired/embezzled wealth after leaving office is enough to feed up to two small African countries comfortably.
I often wonder if Nigerians have short memories or is it the intentionally pretend to forget?
why didn't your Hero GEJ investigated and prosecuted OBJ and those corrupt northern leaders who you claimed embezzeled billions? GEJ is not an angel but operated one of the most corrupt cabinet/government in Nigeria history. billions of dollars went missing under his watch.

CaptainJason:
Many people need to receive sense. The report has not stated that he will not be prosecuted, he has not even been found guilty. Everything wrong with this administration is GEJ's fault but the positives are as a result of Baba's body language. "Most African leaders manipulate the electoral process to suit themselves. They do this not only because of the peculiar reasons; they do this because of the fear of life after power." That is the main point here. This time 9 months ago, Nigerians started to pray against civil war breakout. As some were praying, some were exchanging their funds to US dollars incase of war and the need to quickly relocate, The APC was always screaming that there will be war of the APC candidate is not declared winner, at the same time the niger delta war lords were also threatening us with all sorts if their son did not win, remember this was before the conduct of election, the atmosphere was charged and on paper it was obvious there was civil war already just that bullets and bombs were yet to go off. IF GEJ did not hand over or if he had proceeded to the tribunal, We will be fighting civil war by now, We won't even be talking about "our money", there wont be any service provider for bandwidth to access Nairaland, We won't even be talking about CBN and our Naira cards or the spend limit. Majority will be in refugee camps and some will be in captivity. We will be thinking about having a basic life. Let's be grateful for where we are now. Jail is not the solution right now, pleading with these individuals to invest stolen funds in our economy is the solution as we speak. The present FEC members also have corruption cases hanging on their necks, The Peesident received cars from the NSA also, Same thing with the likes of Dokpesi and Nduka Thisday (You will agree with me that its either he should have checked where the funds for the purchase came from or he should have accepted the cars because he could not have know its from arms funds, same as others). Right now, we need to accept we are at ground zero, no time to pass blame but time for everyone to get on board, cut away the luxury, no time for frivolities, no time for party nonsense, no time for campaign, no time for we told you guys. We need to start now, the present Govt needs to communicate, needs to obey court orders, needs to respect the citizens as their bosses, needs to understand the concept of servant leadership.
God bless Nigeria
thank you,bro!
