Meet The Tough Female Judge Who Jailed Ex- Governor, Jolly Nyame by ExAngel007(f): 3:38pm On May 31, 2018 |
This is Justice Adebukola Banjoko of the Federal Capital Territory High Court who found former governor of Taraba State, Reverend Jolly Nyame guilty for criminal breach of trust on Wednesday. She was so appalled at Nyame’s brazen theft of public money that she bellowed: “There’s no moral justification for the level of outright theft, and the Court must therefore, impose a statement, hopefully as a deterrent to other public officers, who may be similarly inclined” “From the totality of facts before the court, Nyame approved N250 million for purchase of stationery, but is found to have no intention to fulfil the purpose,” Justice Banjoko held. Justice Banjoko also noted that Nyame, a clergyman, as governor of Taraba, breached the trust reposed in him by the indigenes of the state, when he misappropriated N250 million which he approved purportedly for the purchase of stationery for the state. In a ruling which lasted more than 4 hours, Justice Banjoko found Nyame guilty of 16 counts, bordering on criminal breach of public trust. Nyame had during the trial denied knowledge of Salman Global Ventures Limited. But Justice Banjoko disagreed, saying that, “immediately the fund was released, his verbal instruction was given, that N180 million be paid to Salman Global Ventures”. The judge further added that: “the audacity of the defendant to divert N180 million from the N250 to the company, shows that he had more than a casual interest and so can’t hide behind a screen”. “There was no evidence to show that Salman Global Ventures bid for any contracts,” the trial judge said, noting that within five weeks, Salman Global Ventures received over N300 million from the state coffers. The angry judge sentenced him to a total of 28 years in prison, 14 years of which was for criminal breach of trust. https://www.tori.ng/news/97801/meet-the-tough-female-judge-who-jailed-exgovernor.html 3 Likes |

Tough indeed. We're not deceived by nonsense. A typical 'by any means necessary' Nigerian woman who most likely became a judge by sleeping with one politician or the other, and now coming out to form nonsense with her plastic face. Let her swear with her life that she has never collected bribe as a judge, or even that she was not influenced by certain forces to give this judgement. 1 Like |
