Use ur brain. This is a theft without arm. Not an armed robbery. No arm was used, no life was threatened nor cut short. So irrespective of d amount stolen, it can't b placed side by side with armed robbery.

In the same country (zoo), somebody was sentenced 97 years today for stealing (defrauding) 5.6 million Naira.

I don't blame him at all.

I blame his former oga who shamelessly taught him that stealing is not corruption.

This is worse than armed robbery. Armed robbery can't harm more than 100 people in an operation, that's assuming it's big branch of a bank.

This level of stealing can reduce the life span of thousands of pensioners. Nothing short of life sentence should be the deserved punishment

What's wrong with the name?
Yusuf is an Arabic name NOT an Islamic name
John is a christian name.
Remember our speaker? Yakubu? That's also an Arabic name.
So basically the chap is a christian.
Yusuf is Joseph in the Christian Bible. Most Northern Christians bear names from the Hausa translated Bible.

John is Yohanna

Mary is Mairo or Mariam

Jacob is Yakubu (like Gowon n Dogara)


Andrew is Andulus

And so on

It is not actually 6 years. it is 2 years he would be serving since the prison sentences run concurrently in each of the 3 counts against him

Two years each for 3 count is 6yrs to run concurrently is still just 2years. The only improvement is the fine which is returning if the loot . if the man sleeps in prison for just 2yrs and have 32billion then nothing really have change. A life sentence will have been enough deterrent to others.

The last sentence on the judgement...
The prison sentence will run consecutively and the fine is to be cumulative.

far more has been stolen under this administration..

How is that even possible when this administration made far less money from oil than GEJ?
What can Jonathan show for all this:


- Higher oil revenue
- Depleted Foreign Reserve
- $35 Billion USD borrowing
- Lack of infrastructure
- Abandoned projects

This man was initially fined ₦750k for a fraud of ₦32bn, and you want to tell me the Nigerian judges are not the biggest scammers on Earth? There's no judge Buhari will arrest today that I'll say anything in defence of of, even if they were illegally arrested or suspended! Why? Because I KNOW a lot of them compete with our thieving politicians in terms of wealth!

Lalasticlala come and see wonders.
The fault doesnt lie solely with the judges. You need to ask yourself what's wtitten in the piece of junk called the Nigerian constitution regarding cases like this. The judges can only read out the stated punishment in the constitution. We should actually be asking why the useless parliament hasnt done anything since 1999 to review the constitutional punishment for such corruption cases.

Dude should have been sentenced to death, he must have directly led to the death of some pensioners.

That'll also serve as deterrent to others.

The judge in question acted judicially but not judiciously. Under the panel code, there's a clause for discretion, so he was able to do that due to the weakness of the penal code that was written way back in the 50's. We need an overhaul... This country is a joke

Read the story...This was actually an appeal judgement. He was formerly sentenced to two years imprisonment with option of fine of #750,000 in 2013 during GEJ lead government..... EFCC appealed and The deserved judgment has just been served.
. When was he proscuted GEJ government,when was the judgement delivered GEJ goverment, when do they appeal the High Court judgement GEJ government,efcc under Larmode,when was the appeal court judgement delivered, Buhari government. Hope you see the trend of events with respect to the subject but because of your hatred for GEJ you try armtwist the story to suit your ego. But can you tell us why the same pension thief,Mr Maina could not be arrested nor proscuted by your anticorruption wizard instead,invited with armed excourt,reinstated and promoted under Magu.

Man is only serving 2yrs and if I understand our archaic penal code, he may have already served it prior to this judgement. This isn't a deterrent in any way, just a plain invitation to steal as much as possible.
