I am  confused about this issue of money laundering, can someone tell me more, my understanding is when u throw around illegal funds which its source is unknown, but tracing money to someone's account may not neccessarily be money laundering except if the source is unknown. Does it mean that someone cant have 1m dollars in his account? pls if you know better tell me. As for Jonathan, the stealing continua, he has always been there what do u expect? steal steal steal until he goes the way of ALAMS

Wao, $800,000 is not that much in the state, but once you convert that money, i see. I wonder how she got the hard currency from Nigeria. God will save us.

The silence around these parts is deafening. . .

And does that mean she should not get punished?

No, if found quilty, she should be purnished but what i am saying is that her hussy is more powerful now and EFCC under madam can not do anything thing.
