The problem with Nigerians is they want federal solutions to local issues. Why didn't the state prosecute this crook and lock him away? If the people of Taraba are offended by this pardon its not too late to prosecute him using the EFCC play book. The state should do what ever is necessary to achieve this outcome

Federalism works but the states are simply uninterested in anything outside of collecting handouts. I always argue it the state assemblies that are main reason governors run wild since theses guys are either beta males or in their schemes. They never overrided a veto on a state level in 36 states. Sadly most Nigerians are blind to this reality.

You are asking the state to prosecute the accuse base on laws that doesn't exist yet and using

I updated the Original post to list specific laws. Your questions were helpful. Only issue is the sentences are small. They should have been updated decades ago. At least you know they've always existed.

The Penal code Section 308 and 309 cover criminal misappropriation. Section 312 covers criminal breach of trust.

Lol our favorite crooks have been released. The answer to this sort of foolishness has to come from a state level. People can make excuses but it doesn't negate the facts. Lol the worst one is when ignorant people tell you the police gather evidence knowing most murder trials is handled by the state prosecutors not federal. This tells me they have no experience in court as a defendant, worker or casual observer.
