Another one destined for jail Same people, same action, same outcome.

Aloy~Emeka:
Just like igbos, Ijaws and hausas. No tribe can claim to be clean in Nigeria and the sooner tribalists like you accept it, the better.

Ewu! We are talking of numbers here. Make a comparative list. Onukwu!

Kase Lawal is another thief. I will bring something on him now; hold on.

sjeezy8:
I think some people are definately envious or bitter towards yorubas but thats their own problem. It doesnt and wont stop yorubas from producing more Felas, Ganis, Wole Soyinkas, Presidents of Togo, Presidents of Benin, Prime ministers in foreign contries, Billionaire business moguls - Kase Lawal, More Universities and hospitals in the west, The best Governor in Nigeria Fashola and co,
Being Yoruba is bigger than Nigeria PERIOD

So people can hate all they want but who knows them outside Nigeria by their ethnicity name? What other progressive Ethnicity crosses country boundaries with one identity besides yorubas? No matter how terrible people think yorubas are in Nigeria its only other Nigerian bitter tribes who show their obvious envy.
If theres a thousand yorubas who are terrible there will always be 3000 good ones.

Folks can hate all they want to, but it still does rewrite history and the most influential people in Nigeria and West Africa happend to be of yoruba ethnicity.

Console yourself. The lizard says if no one praises him he will do so himself.

WilyWily:
Same people

Bros, E dey body. You don't expect less.

illusion2:
If you weren't poorly educated. . . .you wouldn't insult people's parents as per genuine Ndigbo/African  traditions. . . .

Definitely you're either completely illiterate or inexplicably venting your frustrations on recent closure of your spare parts market on NL 

Never start what you can't finish. . .take on people your size. . .a word as they say is enough for the wise. . . 

Do you care to define illiteracy, you urchin? + what size are you? I need to know so I can invite my dog to fight you, since I know for sure that you are beneath me. You deserve a fight with fellow animals, not humans, more so your betters.

Illusion2:

The poorly educated Igbo trader - as you call him - reads, writes and understands far better than you. Moreover he is not a thief like you, your father and your forefathers

jara:
Igbo do not steal at all. That is why Chuka Okadigbo who stole Nigeria blind was pardoned by his cohort as if it is their money he stole.  So far Yoruba are held accountable by Yoruba judges.

Which court convicted Okadigbo? Assuming he stole, how much was it and why was he not jailed. Who were his cohorts? The senators? If so how many senators are there and what tribes do they come from? I thought Okadigbo was Obasanjo's enemy. Look my friend, Okadigbo's case was politics played by Obj, every other idiot except you knows that.

Oh my God! More Yoruba support for Bode George. http://thepmnews.com/wpg2?g2_itemId=11823

If this kidnapping is poltically motivated, then it is a plus for Soludo. If it is the usual kidnapping then its a different story.

AkoEja:
I am a Yoruba man, and I don't support any thief whatever their tribe! The originator of this thread is one of the people destroying Nigeria. Stealing is not peculiar to any tribe, or any race even.
Every thief will have some supporters. Alamisiegba had supporters, bode george has, Abacha has, Nzeribe has, Ibori has ; just to mention a few thieves from different parts of the country.
mekuslogan, you need to broaden your horizon, and improve your education!
You do not sound enlightened at all.

Eran Oko, was it your father who convicted Nzeribe? What did he steal, if you care to explain?

The fake Yoruba lawyers could not redeem the Yoruba thief.

Bode George’s Conviction: How Festus Keyamo Floored 5 Senior Advocates

When the news of Bode George’s conviction broke yesterday, most Nigerians were shocked even as many others are yet to come to terms with how Lagos lawyer, Festus Keyamo, counsel to EFCC floored 5 SANs who defended George. Before the judgment was delivered yesterday, not many people thought that a political big wig like Chief Bode George could be convicted especially in this era when known corrupt political office holders walk the streets free from justice even in the face of overwhelming evidence.

The smiles and laughter on the faces of Bode George’s teeming supporters and family members at the court yesterday could have deceived anyone into believing that they had a fore-knowledge of how the case will go. However, the  frowns and cries on their faces four hours after their hero was to jail without an option of fine clearly betrayed their shock and despair.

As at today, Bode George and his five co-defendants has tasted their first official 24 hours in Kirikiri Prison as convicts. Their two years sojourn in the infamous prison has only just begun.

While the news came as shock to Bode George, his family members, party members and disheartened thugs, most Lagosians received the news with excitement and jubilation. To them it was a well deserved judgment. Several copies of P.M.NEWS which broke the news were instantly swept off the newsstand by readers.

Justice Olubunmi Oyewole of the Ikeja High Court who presided over matter that lasted 15 months,sentenced all the six accused persons to two years each on seven counts of abuse of office and another six months for 28 charges bordering on disobedience of lawful order.

The judge held that all the accused persons were guilty of splitting numerous contracts as members of NPA board from 2001 to 2003.

According to the judge, there was incontrovertible evidence that all the six accused persons intentionally and knowingly condoned the splitting of contracts.

Also, Justice Oyewole held that Bode George and his co-accused disregarded lawful order passed to them by the Ministry of Transport stipulating a new approval limit of contracts in all government parastatals including the NPA.

According to the judge, all the accused persons in their evidence acknowledged receiving the said order from the Ministry of Transport but chose by their own volition to disregard the order.

He, however, held them not liable for contract inflation.

Most PDP supporters in the court room burst into tears as Justice Oyewole pronounced the judgement. Most of them tried to provoke security men around the court into a fight.

While kudos must be given to the judge for it boldness in deciding such a high profile case fearlessly, one man who also needs commendation is the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFFC) prosecutor, Mr Festus Keyamo. He diligently prosecuted the case for the commission for 15 months.

Up against Festus Keyamo in the matter which lasted for 18 months, were five Senior Advocates of Nigeria (SAN). They are Chief Tunji Ayanlaja (SAN), Mr. Bambo Adesanya (SAN), Chief Bolaji Ayorinde (SAN), Otunba K.K. Kalejaye (SAN), Mr. Dele Adesina (SAN) and Chief J.K. Gadzama (SAN). Four of the senior advocates appeared for Bode George alone while the remaining two appeared for the other defendants.

From the beginning of the case not many people gave Keyamo any chance of winning, especially when he was up against notable senior advocates. No doubt, the final resolution of the matter in favour of the EFCC has shown that he was equal to the task.

Justice Oyewole, while delivering his judgment intermittently acknowledged how the prosecution witness proved the allegations beyond reasonable doubt. Of the 68 count charge brought against them 47 of the charges were in favour of the prosecution while 21 were in favour of the defendants.

In his short comment to the court before the defendants were sentenced, Keyamo stated that the decision of the court on the matter will sent warning signal to corrupt public office holders who think they can abuse the offices they hold in trust and evade justice.

This is indeed a well deserved victory for Nigerians, the EFCC and Festus Keyamo.

When will they sentence Sunday Ehindero, Fani Kayode, Kenny Martins, Aregbesola (master forger), ObJ, Iyabo, all their state govs, Babalola Borishade, Etteh, Grange, Mobolaji Osomo, Sunday Afolabi, Tinubu, the small time ritualists and killers (both political and ritualistic), the thousands of US and UK-based fraudstars and the rapists (the kids of Adeniran)?

source please

Calling me names is not what I expect from you, but due to your lack intellectual I can just call u an idiot. Back to my question, which of the tribe u belong to?

Ignoramus calls himself an intellectual. In a simple statement of two sentences, you made tons of errors. Are you one of the graduates of Okitipupa university?

Yoruba has finished the country: from big time crooks like Tafa Balogun, Sunday Ehindero, Fani Kayode, Kenny Martins, Aregbesola (master forger) Bode George, ObJ, Iyabo, all their state govs, Babalola Borishade, Etteh, Grange, Mobolaji Osomo, Sunday Afolabi, Tinubu, to small time ritualists and killers (both political and ritualistic), to thousands of US and UK-based fraudstars, to rapists (the kids of Adeniran). At this rate, I wonder how an Oduduwa republic will look like. Born thieves.

walata44:
You are a tibalist scum, tell me if their is no thief in whatever tribe u belong. With people like you spouting this type of hatred against other tribe, we can as well say good night Nigeria.

Sharapp there, you son of a thief. Your people finished Nigeria the day they decided that all they can contibute is looting upon looting. Shameless rogues.

Bloody killers. I thought the UK-based rapist and fraudstar YOMYYUK should see this and comment on it.

I thought they are united? Buncha thieves and hypocrites

Tears, wailing and anger trailed the conviction of Chief Bode George, on Monday, as his teeming supporters who had come in solidarity with him were full of sorrow and despair.
Indeed, some came in the popular aso-ebi and with drums but their hope of carrying their mentor home in triumph was shattered as the court pronounced the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) Chieftain and other members of the board of the Nigerian Ports Authority(NPA) guilty as charged.

But for the heavy security presence mounted by the police, the court environment could have been turned into a war zone.

PDP faithful, especially youths, could not hold their temper when Chief George in a spotless white flowing agbada was being led to the waiting prison van around 2.30pm. However, the vigilant policemen remained calm despite of the tense atmosphere.
On their part, the women burst into uncontrollable tears, rained curses on those responsible for the fate that befell their champion.

Several photo-journalists and reporters had to run for cover when the party loyalists dared them to take pictures of the convicts on their way to the waiting prison van.
One unidentified man was knocked down by hoodlums suspected to be party thugs. A lawyer who was unfortunate was mercilessly beaten as his wigs and gowns were used to wrestle him down in theheavy rain. He was dealt several blows before the police came to rescue him from his assailants.

Justice Olubunmi Oyewole of Lagos high court, Ikeja had found George and the other five defendants guilty on 35 counts of the 68-count charge of conspiracy, contract splitting and inflation preferred against them.
Others convicted and sentenced along with the People Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain include former managing director of NPA, Architect Aminu Dabo, Captain Abidoye, Alhaji Aminu Tafida, Alhaji Zanna Maidaribe and Engineer Sule Aliyu.
Throughout the 14-month trial, supporters had always been coming in droves in their aso-ebi attires.
However, the defence team led by Tunji Ayanlaja (SAN) had indicated the intention to appeal against the judgment and also to seek bail pending appeal for the convicts.
