Fast and harsh judgements for minor offences committed by ordinary citizens while the affluent politicians never get convicted for committing fraud and embezzlement 100 times worse than this. It is so unfortunate.
Are you actually surprised? grin

It's called 'selective justice'! wink

Dear PSG, the whole of the UK apart from a small area in London is behind you. Please save football. 🙏🏼

If Chelsea could do it against all odds under Tuchel, Arteta's boys can.

Eko Atlantic, some schools like American international, BIS etc, and Parkview and other estates settle their transactions in dollars.

Shouldn't require jail term... Even though there's an option of fine.

Anyway, he won't be going to any jail... He was asked to forfeit the money and also pay a fine, which I believe he has done.


The law should be more stringent and swift towards worse cases of embezzlement and money laundering.

He won't... But, at this point, he and his boys are dreaming it.

...And why won't they?!! They have come this far and taken down tougher opponents.

Even the PSG they are facing will be scared of them, since they already suffered badly in their hands this season. tongue

Nonsense guy refusing to accept Naira as legal tender, see head like table tennis. If you loved dollars that much, why not relocate to the US. Anyone who lacks home training, Nigeria is ready to give you one.

Few Days ago, Dangote was buying pure crude from NNPC in Dollars... Nigerian buying Nigerian raw material from a Nigerian company in a foreign currency. You didn't get to type this nonsense you're typing today. The judge and all those involved are mad. No commoner has mad more dollar transactions than our politicians within this country. I'm saying cos I've witnessed some.

But when dollars was being demanded and pocketed by one politician with video evidence nothing was done about it.
How do you expect someone that sells diamonds to have price tag in naira for God sake.
Do you have any idea of how much the naira fluctuates in a day/week?
Why are we Nigerians so sensitive to what has no direct relevance to our economy/development yet we are insensitive to big issues that pertains to our development.
$2bn was stolen in NNPC under Goodluck Jonathan and nobody has gone to jail till date, yet you are happy that someone is being sent to jail for doing a legal business.

With many people with your kind of mentality I really do have my sincere reservation of a hope for Nigeria.
