Question because this is vague. 1. Does public funds includes security apparatus, logistics like planes and cars, does it include hotel accommodation for aides and security? 2. In the case of office holders with immunity(President, vice President, Governors, Deputy governors), do you try them after their tenure or is it an impeachable offence? 109 Likes 7 Shares |

The lawmaker, therefore, proposed insertion of Clause 2(2) to read, ‘Any public officer of the government of the federation or any part thereof, who violates the provision of sub-section (1) above shall be guilty of an offence and liable on conviction to a fine of N500,000,000 or to an imprisonment term of seven years, or both’.. They murmured, that is the end we won't hear anything about it again 19 Likes 2 Shares |

Hehehe. Our darling daddy will not like this. Even the new darling daddies (Atiku and Tinubu) will not like this,because they are always on the move to go and chill over there. They are just using us to catch cruise, even the people who initiated this are smiling at us. 4 Likes |

Nice one. But it should have been at least 60years to begin with. Then gradually adds up depending on the magnitude of misappropriation. 3 Likes |

Mynd44: Immunity for the governor and president means they are always right above the law till after their tenure. As for impeachment, its almost impossible to impeach Nigeria president, else their will be civil war 10 Likes 1 Share |

They will still pay... they've got the money. So far as they pay the fine they will be fine. Are they not the same people collecting the fine? |

Hehehe. In a stupendously corrupt environment, rules, laws and regulations are completely vseless. So in other words, Reps are just wasting their time with this bill. Because Bulhari and Tinubu are dragging number one position, in the list of politicians who can't do without medical treatment abroad. 2 Likes |

I'm not impressed. Such bill should be nothing short of resign from your public position if you seek/import medical attention. The medical attention must also be confined to government facilities within the person's jurisdiction. Anything short of this can be easily manipulated and bastardized. 5 Likes |

Nice one,let us support the few politicians who want this country to work, let support this bill and pressurise the political class to pass this bill to help revamp the health services of this Country, not by mocking the few ones that have the interest of the population at heart ,such mockery as seen above is what is demoralising the few good politicians to come out with good proposals and bills 3 Likes |
