He handled 18 cases for the governor at 50 million each

ecolime:
How much was the monthly salary of Fayose as a governor to be able to afford N50M per case?

No wonder they keep stealing billions. Corruption can never be stopped in Nigeria. It can only be reduced.

A full time politician, not even a business man yet he has cases of N1.2b against him, receiving another $5 million from Obanikoro.

EFCC accuses him of buying a N1B property in V.I amongst other crazy figures.

How much is the whole Ekiti sef?

He probably bribed the judge in advance plus other mobilization fees. Always collect your money upfront. Never trust a politician....

Fayose should pay him.

SAN charge more than that.
Some governors were charged millions of dollars for their case by their SAN lawyers.

Many senior lawyers are stinkingly rich.

michlins:
how is he greedy?

He made fayose governor by winning the cases for him. Do you know what it took him and his team to be able to prosecute and win the cases. Upon all the billions fayose must have made,he won't still pay him his fees

No, he did not make Fayose the governor. The people of Ekiti state made Fayose the governor when they voted for him. The lawyer helped Fayose secure his win through the courts.

He charged the initial 50 million, but was not paid. He charged the second, third, up till the eighteenth, while serving at the same time as the AG. The man was enjoying the best of two worlds. He enjoyed his public job with Fayose and yet used the advantage to charge a total of 900M.

As we all know, Fayose is no longer in power. He does not hold any political office. His state is controlled by APC. How will he raise 900M, with the EFCC case hanging on his head?

Certainly things fell apart between them and it must be political. Maybe he wanted Fayose to help him become the governor.

Mark my word.

He will soon endorse TInubu. In return TInubu will promise to use tax payer's money and our national resource to help him stay afloat.

THis is why we don't need people like TInubu in goernance

No sir, I am not a criminal. Maybe many are. Not me and I know many others too.

I never said you were a criminal.

If I may ask, who called you a criminal?

he should be detained

FreeStuffsNG:
This is how and why the politicians do not take them serious.

That professional fee is so so much that you wonder where and how that Lawyer expects a full time politician like HE Fayose to get the money if Fayose does not steal from public treasury.

It is obvious that Fayose is not paying that huge bill. That guy should forget becoming a billionaire this way.

FG and NJC needs to look into this arbitrary billing on legal fees because of the opaque style of billing which often includes money to subvert justice and bribe court officials as established in many corruption cases of senior lawyers in particular.

How did he come to the bill of N900m? Haba!! He better come clean because Fayose will expose him in court.

You talk a lot of shite and you say it with so many veins.
Did the lawyer put a gun to Fayose's head while signing the agreement?
Or did a court rule that he is the only lawyer Fayose is allowed to engage?
While you're wailing over 900m at 50m per case, what will you do to Ned Nwoko who got $268m for the Paris refund case?
Don't project your poor self-appraisal on others. There are those who put a premium on their intellectual property and maximize its profitability.

Not you, haba. The song you quoted nau. Or you didn't read the lyrics you posted

Ok. I get you now.

I did read the lyrics I posted.

I thought you were making a reference to me calling you a criminal.

Hemanwel:
In this coming general elections, I don't think any of the presidential candidates will match Tinubu money-for-money. Why? Because when the baba empties his account, he would not hesitate to also empty Lagos State treasury. Why would he empty all the accounts? Because it is his Lifetime ambition!!!

So, Lagos State civil servants should brace up and prepare for a rough time immediately after the elections next year. Salaries may be owed or delayed.

Nothing like owing salaries will happen in Lagos...it can't happen

Prosecute and bribe rotten judges to win. Error fixed.

gulfer:
This case should be struck out based on "conflict of interest" or are lawyers not statute barred from having other practices like other professions when engaged by the state

So the claimant was his personal lawyer and attorney general at the same time?

/

Anyone with a business with a Governor must endeavor to collect when he is still in power. Otherwise, it will become mission impossible collecting after he leaves office.

How comes he has not gotten any money since & was made attorney general & commissioner a licences to take his fee back.

That's what the news report said now

Alexpre12:
lawyer dey cashout oh 900m Just for a case. no wonder dey prefer politician

Hmm, all those lawyer de cashout, especially those ones we claim to be human right.
Na so like 7 years ago I get some people weh fuckup. Persin direct me to one pupular human right and activist lawyer, malachi abi malakai for surulere. Omo, I bow, him say I go pay 300k just to write letter giving them 7 days to comply. I say shoooo, 300k for ordinary letter? If then no answer the letter, how much him go come charge me to take case go court, millions be that!
Lawyers weh know road de cleanout big time

Angel55555:

I'm pretty sure they both agreed on the price before the former A.G prosecuted the case on his behalf. There is nothing like arbitrary billing, before you engage someone who has achieved so much in his profession, you ought to know he won't come cheap. It's not easy to become a lawyer and I'm pretty sure the man would have paid his entire legal team before demanding any money from Fayose. He should pay up and stop behaving like a sore loser.

The money might already have left state accounts but was diverted elsewhere by the erstwhile governor. Bill padding is a great way to extract money from the government treasury. Extract and divide. Only the two parties in question know what they are actually fighting over and none of them dare tell.
