Where do you have him saying that? And what has corruption to do with this?

For your info, when there is an out of court settlement, it is because the defending party has accepted liability.

^^ Not saying you are 100% wrong but at least get the information right.

I am not saying you are wrong about the claim that it is likely out of weakness, but calling it corruption, I got ask what the corrupt angle you see here is. Yes, the Cheney side still holds that the Nigerian government has a baseless case against Cheney but I am of the mind that they would rather settle this so they can get past this problem and continue their business in and with Nigerian Government.

Dude, shut the fck up. You opened a thread in loud ignorance and you're just getting more foolish cos you've been tolerated.
Do you know the details of the settlement? Do you know what info was given?

These days every agbero thinks he is bright.

i agree it may constitute weakness but what's to be done.

these are very bad times.

I will wait to see if Waziri, or even Jonathan, will, in the future, attempt to claim/ point to this as an achievement of some kind. ROFLMAO!!! I suspect that is what this was particular more about, than anything else.
