The Olu-badan of Ibadan is a good man by acknowledging the efforts of the Igbos in the economic development of Ibadan & not a tribal bigot like the Agbadorians on Nairaland who are always very bitter.
Whether she is in custody or out on bail, the fact remains she in the country illegally. These were the assertions by magistrate Sadiqah Guendouz, who on Wednesday granted Chidimma Adetshina's mother, Anabela Rungo, 10,000 rands bail (810,000 naira).
Rungo faces charges related to flouting the Immigration Act and Identification Act after she was arrested on February 15 in Summer Greens, Cape Town, where she was living despite her ID being revoked.
She was found to have committed identity fraud to obtain South African citizenship.
Rungo, 46, appeared in the Cape Town magistrate's court for judgment of her bail application and after a long-awaited order, she was tearful and relieved, including family and friends who were in the gallery.
“The South African taxpayer should be wary that holding Ms Rungo in custody while this matter is finalised still means that she will be in SA illegally while this matter is finalised, whether she is in custody or not. It is the South African taxpayer who is responsible for her maintenance — putting the roof over her head and food in her stomach,” said Guendouz.
Earlier on Wednesday, there were delays with the delivery of the judgment as the prosecutor, Jacques du Plessis, wanted magistrate Guendouz to recuse herself from the case, citing bias. However, the state's recusal bid failed.
The state's contentions stem from remarks Guendouz made on Friday when she slammed the state for presenting what she labelled as a “half-baked” case despite having prior knowledge of it.
Guendouz said the state should have been better prepared for the case, as they knew as far back as August 7 2024 when the department of home affairs issued a statement saying there was a prima facie case against the accused. She was responding to the state asking the court for another postponement on Friday, as the prosecutor said he still needed to finalise his closing arguments.
Guendouz didn't take to that request kindly, saying Rungo had already been in custody for a while and the state should have better prepared for the case.
Rungo's attorney Ben Mathewson argued there is no suggestion that Rungo presents a risk of violence or would interfere with the administration of justice or the pending investigation (if any).
Du Plessis argued that Rungo’s release would disturb public order and that she is a flight risk. However, Guendouz said regardless of personal views on what should have to happen to legal or illegal foreign nationals, the courts must take into account such injustices by people who replace apartheid racism with xenophobic racism.
The magistrate, however, granted Rungo R10,000 bail, with strict conditions that she:
1. will remain under house arrest and can only leave to attend court or consult a legal representative; 2. is barred from attempting to send any other person to any embassy or consulate, including but not limited to the Mozambique or Nigerian embassy; 3. and is not to apply for any travel documents while the matter is pending but is allowed to visit home affairs should they require her attendance.
The case was postponed to May 8 for further investigation.
“Thank you, Jesus,” Rungo sighed in relief after the court granted her bail.
You this ugly Hiv+ South African, I have observed that every negative news about Chidimma and her mother turns you on and makes you masturbate ever since she defeated that ugly white south African woman (or she rather stepped down) to become the first runner up of the Miss universe pageant.
Why not post news about "ORANIA" where the Afrikaners have an "only white" land/town in your country where they have their own currency, culture & traditions & all ugly black south Africans are banned from working, cross-breeding & setting their black asses over there.
That should be a bigger problem to you than mama Chidimma's immigration problem.
Expecting good governance from a motor park tout with false education and a questionable history/background who stole power is like putting a round peg in a square hole.
This Druggie is a curse to Nigeria. I mean what does he gain by inflicting pains and hardship on Nigerians? If the werey doesn't know governance, why not leave the Economy how he met it? *Fuel increase *High tarrif on Imported goods. *Increase in price of locally produced goods. *Increased electricity bills *Increase in exchange rates *Devaluation of our naira. *Increased phone call/data rates
And now the slowpoke wants to establish Toll gates nationwide This man na devil oh!
BafanaBafana: The dude who made this allegation without evidence Scott Perry is a staunch Trump supporter, a conspiracy theorist to the core. I wonder why people are taking it seriously. I understand some are trying to use it to score political points.
Jonathan supporters are using it to justify the failure of his government. Northerners feel USA is using it to fight Islam.
If you call Jonathan's government a failure, what would you call this druggie's government?
Jagabanbattle: Buhari, El Rufai and other Jihadist supporters are technically out of APC.
We can’t turn blind eye to the fact that Buhari and his core CPC members within APC are pro Jihadist. Reason for cutting them from corridor of power.
Asiwaju is ready for the fight ahead. Jagaban Borgu. Akanbi omo olodo idę. Ekun oko Oluremi Tinubu
So when Bulaba formed alliances with them in 2015, him and you guys didn't know they are pro jihadists abi? Una sabi talk from both sides of una mouth.
PigTormentor: A drug mule from Anambla calling someone a druggie is the height of hypocrisy. These people are only good at projecting their sorry miserable low life existence on others. Whatever they accuse you of is exactly what they are doing themselves. While they are locked up in prisons all over the world for the drug trade, they are the same set of animals calling others drug barons. Projection and hypocrisy are in their DNA.
I didn't mention a name when I made my post. I only said "druggie". So if you think I was referring to Bulaba, then na you sabi.
The thing is; All the forces(CPC + AD + Aggrieved PDP) who came together to form APC have been sidelined by the Druggie with only the ACN wing of APC enjoying all the proceeds of their alliance.
If the druggie thinks he can do it alone this time in 2027, then he needs to change his supplier/dealer because what's cooking against him would be very sweet & Hot.
saintmm: FYI, I don't discuss issues from tribal perspective I see it as childish and narrow-minded and I don't cast national vote on tribal sentiment too. Know your goons.
Save the substance of my post and check it again on 2027.
Those guys are politicians, they are playing games and Nigerians will still fall for their pranks again.
Tinubu will handover to either el-rufai or Ribadu except another dynamics play out before then
But El rufai was not playing games with Jonathan when he started badmouthing his government from 2014 abi? Dey play.
Tinubu that refused to give El rufai a ministerial position, then na presidency him go give am? Tinubu is trickish and El rufai and Arewa already know that. That is why they rather capitalize on the current unpopularity of Tinubu in Arewa land, Middle belt, south east and south south to snatch power from him in 2027 instead of allowing him play his usual tricks on them by 2031.
A Northerner presidency would benefit El rufai in 2027 better than in 2031.
Do the maths Bro. My perspective is not tribal. I'm a political analyst and a good one at that. Go back to my 2023 posts. I predicted a Tinubu presidency even though I don't like him and it came to pass.
Oga keep kwayet there. The Arewa people and El rufai don't rate Bulaba at all.
The little dude was asking for a space in a presidential aircraft for himself and his mum. The boy no rate Bulaba at all because ganduje was right there and he said nothing. That's because the dude already knows what his father says behind Bulaba's back.
Wetin Arewa dey cook for Bulaba go soon done and e go sweet.
saintmm: Sometimes I wonder how narrow some people's perspective on issues can be? Imagine what this man is saying? Maybe he's never won councillorship ticket in his ward before ooo. I remember when Ambode was at this stage el-rufai is he's having his filled day until it got to where it got to.
But sincerely, I don't see el-rufai and Tinubu having issues, I only see Nigerians being played in their game of chess.
El-rufai is writing his political exam for his 2031 presidential ambition. If he pass, he gets it, if he fails,then Ribadu gets it.
He's as it is now subtly working for Tinubu for 2027 if you understand how Machiavellic Tinubu political strategy is for his selfish interest you will not bother yourself about both those hailing him and those shouting crucify him.
Hahaha! Unity beggers. I thought you Agbadorians say El rufai is no longer politically relevant & that he should go to hell. Look, El rufai will be Tinubu's nightmare and they have serious issues. You don't know what it means to dent someone's image by saying the senate didn't clear him for ministerial position due to national security reasons after he worked very hard towards Bulaba's presidency. You are indirectly calling that person a terrorist and that's why El rufai is so furious.
wickedclown: U see how myopic you are... Show me one country in the world where the president or leader has done everything by himself
Read the headline again. Bulaba was not yet a president when he asked El rufai to do that dirty job for him.
Your men lack balls. The only man from your tribe who has balls is OBJ. Dude is just different from the rest in a positive way that was why Agbado-media started spreading lies & propaganda against him that his father is from Anambra.
papyjaypaul: You clearly have not gone through my posts but I don't care. Why must I attack? Your choice of words shows me who you are. Pay me to attack since my name is Ronaldo
But small thing u don attack igbos abi? Dey play. The whole country don sabi una.
seanfer: According to your comment, Tinubu went from the SW to sponsor Boko Haram in the NE/NW? Are you aware that Boko-Haram issue started during OBJ's tenure and it escalated after the death of Yaradu'a?
One major problem with you Agbadorians is you people don't read thoroughly. Read what I typed before yanning dust.
The chibok girls saga and the 2014/2015 boko boys interference in GEJ's government was sponsored by the APC and by then, Bulaba was the APC national leader.
The Donald Trump's government just exposed this during their recent USAID audit. Obama's Gov, used USAID funds to sponsor terrorism in Nigeria against our Gov in 2015.
Those 27 committee of friends have defected to the APC and lost their seats in the process.
Bulaba and Agbadorians should stop using wike to do their dirty job in Rivers State because Sim Fubara and the good people of Rivers State mount wella.
Bulaba and his likes can't do shit by themselves. They are always scared to be at the fore front of every battle. Always begging people with balls like El rufai, Nyesom Wike etc to do things for them.
Tinubu cannot release any report on El rufai because he is also complicit. These 2 men really played dirty with the boko boys in 2014 - 2015 to oust Jonathan's government.
If Tinubu do anyhow, enough yansh go open and "everywhere go smell".
REDshouse: Area Boy is a good name, its for those who knows how to run street wella not an ajebo or ono get inside like Obi... An Area boy as a president is better
Tinubu Area Father
Coward!! Why not attack El rufai? Na obi call una druggie an area boy? El rufai call una drug addict an area boy you dey mention Obi. Which kind cowardice be this?
