can only 500k bribe a jugde of that level, in such a high profile sensitive case.
even if its 20k when he is handling a case is a bribe. Only if the case is out of court i think is not a bribe. Get sense bro

The gift fell off the bribe and the bribe fell off the tree. Even me I don't know where the gift is.

Simple.
It's a gift if it's from a northerner.
It's a bribe if it's from a southerner.
You can thank me later at the galleria in abuja cool.
God bless you.

Ibrahim Babangida as HoS jailed former Minister of Petroleum Prof.Tam David West, because David West got a gift of wristwatch.

Difference is that in Nigeria, northerners are more equal than southerners .
Buhari said that late Abacha was not corrupt.

A Kano City stadium named after the abdolutely corrupt Sani Abacha is one of the most imposing


Buhari was accused of stealing $2 billion in the early 1980s but was not properly investigated till today.

The major difference between bribe and gift is in the counter value
between the given property and the duty of the public official. If the property is given under general social appointment and not related to the duty of the public official, then it is a
gift, not a bribe . source: Google

It is all about the intention. ... like taking a loan without the intention of paying it back
Intention indeed. Do you know the intention of Mr Yakubu for stashing away 10million dols, or Dasuki for sharing arms money or Deziani for holding on to millions of dollars?

Even at that, do you know the intention for the 500k 'gift'?

All these spin doctors sef.

God bless u.. Someone is even saying 500k is too small to bribe a judge. Even if its 10k, once he is handling a case is a bribe. We can say its a gift when the case is already out of court

It was an obvious BRIBE for goodness sake! How on earth will you give a "gift" to a judge handling your case? And finally you didn't produce your WAEC certificate and the same judge struck out your case and you expect to clap for you? "Blind leaders of the blind!"

I guess the difference is when Buhari gives a bribe its called a gift. But, when someone else gives a bribe it's called a bribe. Maybe that's why he said change begins with you, not him.

hedonistic:

The problem is this: How do you ascertain "intention"? Is there any scientific way to prove one's intention before the court?

It is simple: Is it morally correct to give gift to a judge who presides over your case? No, it can be inferred you do that to curry a favour. It doesn't need to be explicitly stated, the time when the gift was given says it all.
The danger of this case is: if Buhari's giving is labelled as a gift, how do you prove others' giving as bribe? That creates a legal dilemma for prosecuting team. He who goes to equity they said must go with clean hand.

Ask the lawyer and not PMB. You should be educated enough to channel your question to the right person without bias. Or simply let the courts decide.
but it was lawyers that paid money into judge ngwuta account, without a trace to wike yet ngwuta was gestapo-styled manhandled and arraigned as if wike bribed him, what a hypocrite

Still from the same Twitter Senator that borrowed 11 Billion from the bank for biz (owanbe) and never serviced his debt before the company was taken over by the government (AMCON).

It could be a 'GIFT'.
