PRESS RELEASE:

MURIC WELCOMES JOLLY NYAME’S SENTENCE



Ex-Governor Jolly Nyame was yesterday sentenced to fourteen years imprisonment by a High Court of the Federal Capital Territory headed by Justice Adebukola Banjoko. The judge also ordered the refund of the sum of N1.64 billion diverted by the ex-governor since May, 2007. Mr Nyame spearheaded the fraudulent transfer of funds from the Taraba state’s treasury to Saman Global, a company which supplies office equipment and stationeries but the goods were never delivered.



The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) commends the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for doing a thorough investigation.



We also laud the judge who delivered the landmark judgement for her boldness and forthrightness. There is no doubt that her pronouncement will serve as a deterrent for other kleptomaniacs in public service. This judgement marks the beginning of active participation of the judiciary and its cooperation with the executive in anti-graft war.



In addition, we give kudos to the Federal Government (FG) for vigorously pursuing the war against corruption. Nyame’s imprisonment has cemented the resolve of this administration to bring about change in Nigeria. This will bring to five the number of ex-governors sent to jail since the beginning of President Muhammadu Buhari’s war against corruption.



Although he was later set free, James Bala Ngilari, ex-governor of Adamawa State, bagged five years in March 2017. Babangida Aliyu, former Niger State governor, tasted the bitter pill on 25th April, 2017 when he was remanded in prison. Sule Lamido, ex-governor of Jigawa State was also remanded in prison on 2nd May, 2017. Jonah Jang, the former governor of Plateau State was remanded in prison custody on May 16, 2018. It is an unprecedented challenge of the status quo ante.



MURIC therefore calls on Nigerians to show appreciation for this positive development. It implies that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Those who had lost hope in the Nigerian project should now reposition themselves as more evidence has emerged to prove that the stage is set for a better Nigeria.



The main reason for people losing hope in this country has been the general lack of accountability. Crooks in government were stealing with impunity and nobody was ever questioned or arrested. Our values were bastardised. Criminals were celebrated. But change is here. Those who stole our common patrimony are now being made to face the music. It therefore behoves true patriots to rally behind President Muhammadu Buhari and his administration.



Finally, we urge FG to remain focused and consistent in its efforts to clean up the mess in Nigeria and to restore the good name of this great country in the comity of nations. There must be no retreat, no surrender. We charge other judges to emulate Justice Adebukola Banjoko. Judges must sum up enough courage to deal with executive thieves standing trial before them as quickly as possible.

What's MURIC's business with Jolly Nyame and his corruption cases? I thought MURIC is about Muslim rights. Confused people

If he was a Muslim, this nincompoop calling his self a prof will be hyperventilating all over the place. Arsehole

After all they sentenced a Christian, it's really bad

MURIC

MURIC is quick to celebrate simply because Jolly is a christian ..
The hate is real and they must all be consumed by their own hatred.

Bloody terrorist !

APC's fanatic Islam ass lickers wing talking.

One Day, Hopefully, It Will Be The Turn Of Other Bigger Thieves............., I didn't Mention Any Names O.

Stooge of the caliphate.

He is yet to issue a single press statement in condemnation of the killings across the country.

Who still takes this one man Yoruba Muslim 'group' seriously?

Lets know when MURIC will chase down Maina and smoke him out of his hiding place...

MURIC... when Maina is mentioned...

Celebrating imprisonment of a Christian by Muslim terrorists is not surprising at all.

The guy must be Christian

IJOBA2 is Akintola himself, that's why he posts every thrash released by mumuric.

APC has always been an Islamic party. Everything about the party screams Islam. Even the bonds they are using to fix our roads were gotten from an Islamic bank

Thumb up MURIC
Criminal association of Nigeria would do worse

CAN aka religious arm of PDP

What concerns Muric with corruption court cases...


Some people are confused I swear

issues like this should be criticised and not welcomed, because there are lots of thieves still walking free on the streets.

Terrorists. Nigeria isn't safe because of Muslims. They jump on anything to discredit Christians as though this is the only corruption case in Nigeria. Islam is satanic and leads to hell

MURIC another name for APC.

Whether he is a Muslim or Christan he deserve it

abokibuhari:

Yes a reverend for that matter and a crook

MURIC should be commenting on matters concerning SHARIA court only.

Personally i wouldn't mind if buhari would jail ALL christain thieves. A theif is a theif irrespective of his religion!
These criminals don't mind religon when stealing but would quickly pull the religous card when yhe chicken comes home to roost!.
For that i say. Fire on!
