A Lagos State High Court in Ikeja Monday discharged and acquitted Deji Abiola, son of the late acclaimed winner of the June 12, 1993 presidential election, Chief MKO Abiola, of the N35.5 million theft charge preferred against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Deji was discharged by Justice Adeniyi Onigbanjo after the EFCC decided to withdraw the case against him.

He was dragged before the court for allegedly stealing N35.5 million belonging to a Lagos-based printer, Mr Jide Jose under the pretext of helping the complainant import printing machines from Switzerland.

During Monday’s proceedings, EFCC prosecutor, Mr Omeiza Adebola informed the court that the prosecution was withdrawing its case against Abiola.

Adebola said the prosecution was discontinuing the case because Abiola and Jose had resolved the matter out of court..

The application was not opposed by Abiola’s counsel, Chief Phillip Jimoh-Lasisi (SAN), who reiterated that the matter has been resolved amicably between both parties.

The judge, in a short ruling, discharged and acquitted Abiola of the one-count charge of theft.

He said: “The accused is hereby discharged and acquitted.This is following the application filed by the prosecution (EFCC) dated July 2, 2012, notifying the court of its intention to withdraw the charge after an agreement was reached between the accused and the complainant”

My fellow Nigerians, this message is to wake us up from our slumber.

A sad and unfortunate case in humanity: an island (Taiwan) produces more than an entire continent (Africa).

In 1965, Nigeria is richer than Taiwan. Taiwan is very poor and has no resources. They were given the same aid funds US gave Nigeria. We are blessed with resources which they don't have. But look at Taiwan today, they are richer than us. Despite its rich resources, the 54 nations in Africa have not yet manage to advance industrially. Africa produces only just 1% of the world’s industrial output. This is ironically, even less than the island of Taiwan, which account for 1.1% of global industrial output.

Thanks to our past leaders for making life unbearable for us with their selfish desires. It is time Nigeria !!!

All of them looted and mismanaged our funds, yet we keep silent hoping God will judge them. If we keep thinking this way, then we are fools and weak. They are oppressing the poor with the looted funds and yet we keep praising them. They are enjoying all looted funds while the masses are in pain. They are ungodly and we should show them no mercy.

We need to start eliminating them. We must not spare them if we want our future leaders to respect us. We must not forgive them!!! It is unacceptable!!!

Please show them no mercy. We need to start acting now to let them know we are not slaves but son of the land. Let us start creating a strategic plan to kill all past living leaders. Their dead is better than their living. I know we Nigerians are also corrupt but this started from the Nigeria leaders by making her citizens to suffer and pushing us towards untold hardship. I can directly do the sponsoring and come to make this work, all I need is support from my people.

I cannot forgive those leaders for making life miserable for us compare to other countries. I am ready to lay down my life to save the future of my country and our unborn generations.

If we want Nigeria to work, we need to start passing judgment on them and keep fighting for true justice, Nigeria and Nigerians will change. If everyone knows that justice is working in Nigeria, corruption and crime will reduce.

What are you opinions my fellow country people?

another level of compromise i trust Naija

Someone ITT'd someone?

kiyosaki1: He was found not guilty by a competent court of law.Do you have any problem with that ?

Hold your fire!
Have u ever passed any exam in your life? I m thinking,u haven't.
1.He wasn't found innocent either,efcc withdrew out of court,doesn't mean he is innocent.
2 olodo,read my statement again , correct yourself.I asked a yes or no question,now u ve failed again.

femary2: Whats Jonathan business in this?

If nor be GEJ biz maybe na ur own?

Who is the presido of the country?

kiyosaki1: He was found not guilty by a competent court of law.Do you have any problem with that ?

It was said that EFCC withdrew the case nt that the court of law found him nt guilty
The question is this; why did they charge or sued him in the first place?

tunapawizzy:

That's what comes with the sit of the president. Flood sweep away your building and maybe an aircraft crashed ontop of your house? Who will you blame?

[quote author=AK 48]Is jonathan serious about anti corruption war?

seriously i think there shld age restriction on NL.
@ak48 or whatever u bear, must u show d world how dumb or frustrated u are? A law court dismisses a case cos both parties have settled out of court n u concluded its corruption n demands d president's head! Haba, wher is ur brain located? Plss check if it has left its position.

Better to settle out of court than soil the family name for chickfeed

tunapawizzy:

Na because say GEJ name sweet, same as OBJ.

People who want to keep on blaming the President for their personal misfortunes should take this as a warning. It will not be tolerated anymore. Yar'adua was not criticized, Obasanjo was not. Didn't they have flaws? Don't hate, appreciate. A word is enough for the fools.

bros d ABIOLA name has alwayz bin soiled in dirt
ee don tey no b 2day ee start evun wen he waz alive

People always see Deji as a spoiled brat.
