Will Tinubu sign off the Death Sentence?
No need for that, it has been commuted to Life Imprisonment.

Nnamdi Kanu sentenced to Life Imprisonment instead of Death Sentence

They do not play by the rules even in lagos.

Very very dodgy people. But of course being enabled by ogas at the top
I always look at them with jaundice eyes since they constructed that Iba bridge and the bridge caved in even before the project was commissioned. They didn't channel the water under the bridge well and the water eat out the bed of the soil till it gave way.

That road was one road they did a lot of trial and error on it before getting it right. The rumor back then was that Tinubu brought them from China so even if Fashola wanted to cancel their contract for incompetency, he couldn't.

I guess they later gained ground in naija after that project.

There's already injustice.

Because while the right thing is make Kanu pay for his crimes, we have the ones up north being rehabilitated and enrolled into the Army.

Whatever verdict given today is right, but then there's still injustice
I think going forward we actually need to mount serious pressure on the government to have terrorists prosecuted and convicted.

In fact, if Southern Lawmakers are wise, they should raise a motion and sponsor a bill that will put a stop to so called rehabilitation and reintegration of terrorists into the society. The idea of granting amnesty or leniency to terrorists must be discontinued.

The only stuuppiidd defence is that he was kidnapped from Kenya. Rubbish

You see Buhari? You see that guy?

Let us not curse the dead...
Buhari struggled to adjust to ruling as a civilian president . Him keeping Kanu in detention for that long is typical of Military government.

Chinese have infiltrated through construction and agro manufacturing too, Many states in Nigeria have projects being run by CCECC. Some are here legally, but you know Chinese once they get the contract they import a lot of their country men. Some are here illegally running the illegal mines, And I put nothing past them. Cos with the manner of these rampart kidnapping, I would think the expatriates specially working on the field would be easier and more rewarding to get

Last week, I saw one Chinese man wearing Hausa dress and blowing fluent Hausa with a minister

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTDhh0A0BhE

I dont understand the full context of what he is saying maybe someone who understands better will interpret
I didn't even know CCECC has gained foothold like that in the north. I was thinking they only do projects for LASG and Ogun state government o.

The thing is those people don't necessarily play by the rules, they can do anything to get what they came for.

That's why I always laugh at people who would show middle finger to the west and embrace the Chinese. They don't know those guys don't even respect the law of their hosts

I like how the prosecution went for the jugular in this Nnamdi Kanu's trial.

You don't incite people to create anarchy and then expect a light sentence. I'm sure people like the Akunyilis will feel some level of relief that just has finally been served as regards their father's death when the Kanu is finally sentenced

This sounds credible to me. Cos think about it if you want to kidnap, why wont you go for someone who is an expatriate and will have money than people who are poor, when you see the level of poverty of some of those kidnapped,, you will know except govt rescues them, there is no one going to pay 100K for him

Yet these Chinese an Lebanese are moving around you freely who can guarantee you dollars

Maybe the Chinese even supply them weapons and logistics too, Chase villagers out and we mine in peace
I know Lebanese and Indians operate industries like plastic making factories, Foam making factories, agro allied & food processing plants, etc. But the Chinese, I really don't know what they are doing in the north.

I won't doubt illegal mining as has been alleged by people who know that terrain well.

The judge wants to take a recess and will come back to pronounce Nnamdi Kanu's sentence.

blueraydick izzou and ibime

There are so many Lebanese and Chinese in the NW, North Central in Nigeria running construction and illegal mines are they being kidnapped at a high rate or do they have a side deal with the bandits that guarantees their security in exchange for something

I will be thinking that the foreigners will have a higher ransom value that random villagers who probably have never seen 20K in the last 3 months

When the Niger Delta militancy was ongoing, the expatriates were being targeted more and it makes economic sense cos they will command a higher ransom
I think there is more to the presence of those Asians in the North. The word on the street is that those guys may be the ones fueling insecurity .

From what I know about the Niger Delta, if u like get 20 armed bodyguards if those boys want to kidnap for ransom, they will do that. And they did kidnap a lot of expats throughout the period of agitation.

I think that the Asians are moving around freely over there definitely means they have some kind of arrangement with the gun wielding bandits.

Whether its ransom whether na for the governor to go prostrate for the kidnappers make dem juat release the girls

Imagine the horror those teenage girls would have been subjected to in those 48hrs
Of course, anything to secure release of the girls is welcome.

I was only pointing it out that for the man to boldly claim the girls will be released soon, he must have been in touch with the kidnappers and they are getting ready to meet their demands.

Even if Johnny Cochran and Cicero had combined to represent Awolowo he would still have been found guilty. It was not a matter of him defending himself or someone else doing it.

You remember Sowemimo's "My hands are tied" statement?
Sowemimo years later explained what he meant by his hands being tied. He said because he will sentence the young co-defendants with Awolowo, there was no way he would allow Awolowo walk. He said his hands are tied because letting Awolowo walk with a slap on the wrist sentence will be injustice.

But u are right, it was a political case and one side of the divide would always claim the judge was unfair

Not guilty but foolish according to you.
I didn't say "not guilty" and I didn't say "guilty".

I am neither a judge nor a lawyer; I do not have enough legal training to know if he is guilty or not. The lawyers who would've helped him he declined their help.

So let the judge who is an authority over such matters decide whether he is guilty or not.

I am sorry, I don't get you.

If his agitations will not affect the decision of the court, and you sincerely think he is guilty. So who cares if he shouts in court or keeps silent.

For me it's better to shout o 😂

That's how chickens do because they know they will still die. So let the world know that they protested at least
I don't think he is guilty, I think he is foooolish.

The judge will decide if he is guilty or not.

Well, he has made noise like the chicken in ur analogy, let's wait to see if his protest matter in the general scheme of things or not.

The SC acknowledged that the rendition was illegal, siding with the decision of the Appeal Court. Isn't that enough to let him go.

Why start the trial afresh unless there is a grand plan to nail him.
What does this even mean? grin grin grin

They should let him go because Spy360 says so? Initially you claimed he was discharged and acquitted, now that u know he wasn't acquitted u switch to asking why they didn't let him go . U are funny aswear.

You see why I ask u to follow the judgement like I'm currently doing on Channels live stream? The Judge has already quoted relevant case laws that the manner of his rendition doesn't affect the trial in any way.

He didn't put in defense despite having several opportunities to do so. He has laid his bed, the judge will soon make him lie on it. It's only a matter of time. Stay Jiggy!

So I don't get how you're bothered about whether he agitated in court or not.
Who says I'm bothered?

I passed a commentary that with the way things are going he will be sentenced to prison because he chose not to use legal counsel but chose to be acting drama in the court room.

How does that translate to me being bothered he is throwing away his lifeline? undecided

Spy360:
Are you aware that the Appeal Court declared him discharged and acquitted?
This matter has been treated already.

Appeal court discharged him but did not acquit him. The appeal court ruled on a single issue of rendition and discharged him on the basis that his rendition was illegal.

FG appealed that decision at the supreme court and the supreme court overturned the decision of the appeal court. You can check and confirm this urself.

Spy360:
Are you insinuating that he has a genuine defense if he had used his lawyers?
No, I'm not.

I'm saying he didn't make an attempt to defend himself after telling the court he would be doing so without the help of his lawyers. He discarded the advice of the judge and that of his legal counsel. He then proceed to be unruly in court without actually putting up a defence.

If he had allowed his lawyers do their jobs, he may have a chance by them presenting a superior argument to that of the prosecution team.

He has thrown away his chance of presenting his case like a reasonable and civil person. Whatever judgement the court passes today, Kanu deserves it for how he has conducted himself

Look at how the DSS was begging him to leave the court room. He was just shouting and cursing. There's no courtroom on earth where that would be allowed. No one.

I don't blame him at all. He's now a hero, courtesy of Buhari. His case now looks like persecution too, when you see how terrorists from the north are pampered.
I also have issues with how Buhari held him for long without convicting him. The whole thing made it look like he was being persecuted when in fact he is supposed to be made to answer for his crime of inciting violence and destabilizing the eastern part of the country.

Spy360:
I hope you got my response correctly.

I said it is wiser to use a lawyer. However that is on the premise that justice will actually be done.

Whether he agitated or not, if the body language is set at declaring him guilty, it won't stop the ruling. So it's better to agitate so that he won't go down silent.

If you're going to argue whether the judge would not set at declaring him guilty, don't waste your time. Didn't you see how our PEPT and Supreme Court sold out people's mandate in the electoral panel?
I think u should try and follow the judgement on Channels TV Live streaming on Youtube. The judge alleged this man refused to call defense witness who would have made his defense strong.

How can he refuse to open defence and then turn around to claim the court is bent on declaring him guilty ?

Let me tell u the truth; Kanu is showing signs of madness with how he has handled this case.

Yeah, This is a good perspective I hadn’t considered.
Surely FIFA will ban them, but there are some countries that have never qualified for a FIFA tournament before, and they know they cannot qualify. Such countries may consider the offer ooo grin
Yeah, countries like India and other countries that have never qualified for FIFA tournaments will definitely consider participating, but countries like Nigeria that have won FIFA age grade competitions and even played at the senior world cup wella, we will be isolating ourselves if we attempt to participate.

Even the grants we get from FIFA to build stadiums and improve our grassroots football will disappear into thin air
