RULES TO LIVE IN NIGERIA AND BE ABOVE THE LAW.

1) If you want to steal, NEVER steal below N1,000,000,000. Yes! You saw it right. One Billion Naira. You stand a chance to be sentenced to life in Prison for stealing lesser amounts.
If you are still in doubt Ask Igbenedion, Tafa Balogun, Cecilia Ibru, Akingbola, bode George, Tinubu, Alamiesia, Dimeji Bankole.

2) If you Must commit murder, make sure your victim is a Government Official, Elite or a well known person in the society. You can drag your case for as long as possible and the Judge will only shakara you with a "death by hanging" sentence which when you appeal, the Upper court will surely free you. Ask Rev Chris, Fryo, Klifford Oji, Al-Mustapha.

3) If you want to choose your friends choose ONLY "highly" corrupt individuals. Never associate with men of dignity and sincerity because the Government will term you an "enemy of Government". And even charge you with Felony and Treason.
If you are in doubt, ask Wole Soyinka, Falana, Agbakoba, Tunde Bakare.

4) To get easy government appointment, Continue to criticize government ( but Never Ever reveal secrets to the public at your disposal).
If you think otherwise ask Fani Kayode, Reuben Abati, Livi Ajonama.

5) When you get to the top NEVER EVER RUB SHOULDERS WITH YOUR BOSS (the president). He has the power to mess you up in seconds.
If you are in doubt ask Ayo Fayose, Joshua Dariye, Alamisia, Timipre Sylvia.

If you dare break any of these rules prepare to be like any of the following;

1) The Mechanic in Abuja who got a life in prison sentence for stealing a car radio after already spending 10years in detention.

2) The man whose arms got amputated in Zamfara for stealing 2 Butters of Yam.

3) The lady who was stripped Unclad for stealing a BlackBerry phone & her picture on the internet.

Re: Court Frees Bankole And Nafada by KnowAll(m): 4:12pm On Jan 31, 2012
[size=14pt]How do we justify sending Al- Mustapha to the Gallows when Bankole walks? undecided

How do we justify sending Shekarau (If true) to Jail for Boko Haram activities when Bankole Walks?

How do we justify the fact that of all the criminals and thieves that have ruled our various States and parastatals since 1999,  only Bode Gorge and probably Alams were the only 2 who saw the back of a jail, this is no justice, this is more like more grease to your elbow.[/size] embarassed
Re: Court Frees Bankole And Nafada by Nobody: 4:19pm On Jan 31, 2012
The case against Bankole was weak, you don't have to be emotional. They were pursuing shadows while the more weighty allegation of inflation of contracts was not preferred against him.

Re: Court Frees Bankole And Nafada by lagerwhenindoubt(m): 4:22pm On Jan 31, 2012
In Nigeria you can be burned alive for pinchign a bag of chin-chin, but if you steal between N1billion and N100 billion, you can smile in the faces of your accusers and even get a visit from the President's Wife  grin Priceless. Please Note: Stealing Amounts below N1billion will land you in jail or worse  grin
Re: Court Frees Bankole And Nafada by bokohaman: 4:24pm On Jan 31, 2012
Dimeji Bankole set free, corruption @ its peak right frm †ђξ federal to †ђξ local level, even our so called judges are extremely corrupt. These people ensure they embezzle enough money that can buy off †ђξ presiding judge and its entire generation, for God's sakes when will nigeria adopt zero tolerance for corruption and stop selective justice? I won't be surprised if Alao Akala and Gbenga Daniel are being set free, "I taya 4 9ja O°˚˚ " hmmm!, *sigh

You are wrong.  The inflation of contracts case is still in court.  Bankole was being prosecuted in 2 different courts at the same time.  The second case (inflation of contracts) will resume before Justice Okorowa in February.

Meanwhile, let us treat this Bankole/Nafada case based on its merit.  The judge that gave the verdict, Justice Belgore, did an excellent and thorough analysis of the prosecution and the defence.  I was in court.  We are all literate.  Get a summary of the ruling for the case and get educated.

EFCC and Nigerian Courts will never convict any political office holder from SW, NE or NW geopolitical zones. EFCC is setup by government led by Yoruba and its first chairperson was a Fulani. There is a hidden code behind the creation of EFCC. I really want the useless agency scrapped. EFCC is a government’s official tool for blackmail.
Nigerians are shameless suckers anyway.


Dende is a senseless f00l as usual

Bode george was from SE? or tafa Balogun was from East-South?

Simply put the govt of Retardeen Jonathan condones corruption

Bankole was freed because he did not embezzle money. A lot of people have been misinformed about the Bankole case however.

Six or half a dozen, it's still the same thing. For a case not to go beyond no case submission, the charges were indeed weak.
The inflation of contracts , if well prosecuted, is the one that will eventually nail him.

Re: Court Frees Bankole And Nafada by Nobody: 5:27pm On Jan 31, 2012
EFCC didnt really build any case against him, everything was stage-managed from the word go. how do they expect the court to convict bankole after the 86 billion he wrongly collected was shared among all members of house of reps? if the loan was criminal, then all members of house of reps that served with bankole are partners in the crime and should be arrested also.

Yours is almost the only informed response on this thread.  However, the Inflation of Contracts case is even weaker than this Loan case if you attempt a simple introspection of the merits of the case.  Bankole as Speaker has absolutely no business regarding contract awards.  That is the business of the Procurement office of the National Assembly.  Also, unless you can trace funds into his personal accounts that is linked to this contract awards, there would be a 'quick no case' ruling on that as well.

Ok. You are a consumer of dem junk magazines that made unfounded claims against poor Bankole. Bankole never dated Ini Edo. Bankole was a colleague of Saraki because they were both well-educated legislators. Gbemi Saraki herself is quite well-to-do as she was born with a silver spoon and has been a top Senator for years.

Oh you don't know? Poor you!
Re: Court Frees Bankole And Nafada by ojimboIV: 5:41pm On Jan 31, 2012
hang on a minute.
all the while bankole was in efcc's custody are they telling us that they couldn't build a credible case??

FESTUS KEYAMO pls save us your lame responses. we are tired of your silly cat and mouse games.

i'm not surprised by the judge's decision at all. NO FACT + NO EVIDENCE =  NO CASE. . . simples

oh by the way, the efcc case workers assigned to the investigation should refund their salaries for the period and xmas bonuses too.
they should also be fired for gross incompetence.

Mr Bankole secured a 10bn naira ($65m; £40m) loan, which was then shared out among senior figures in parliament.
