They have no right to arrest and jail them. Cos there is no law that prohibit prostitution in Nigeria. ..
I don't support prostitution though

nwakibie3:
sharia court

They will not stop almajiri

The law seems to be silent on prostitution in Nigeria. Someone should enlighten me if prostitution is legal or illegal in Nigeria

When will they jail thirty corrupt politicians for God sake.

They pleaded guilty to what offense in particular

If it is for having sex and collecting money, everyother Nigerian girl out there is having sex and collecting money from their supposed multiple boyfriends which is more or less what the prostitutes are doing.

If this is the case, the guys patronizing them should be brought to book as well. Because they're all accomplice to the said crime

Whatever the problem here is isn't even my concern.

Please what manner of foolish journalisms are our bloggers cheaply passing around for crying out loud?

You lots can't even construct simple and correct English and you will still end up repeating the same shabby points and end up making no point at all.

Can't I read a report without any case of silly repetitions and blunders?
