Lol ordinary #20 you people just call money anyhow if most of our forefathers have that ordinary #20 most of us will be swimming in inheritance now....

Most people didn't even inherit ordinary black and white TV so nothing is ordinary then.
#20 then is not even worth a million now

And people steal billions daily so what are you talking about?

N20 bribe and the judge was dealt with..

Today, judges openly take bribes and houses in billions of naira from politicians like Wike and co. in return for favourable judgements.

They've destroyed Imo state and now have Rivers State under siege.

Kekere-Ekun and co. one day you all will stand before God and account for the judicial evil you did Imo and Nigeria at large.

For those quoting me:
Let's do some exercise in economics.

In 1976 1N was $1.25

$1.25 in 1976 is worth $7.10 today in 2025 based on inflation.

Multiply $7.10 by 20 you get $141.2 thereabout in today's money.

That was worth of the bribe the judge took in 1976 that got him arrested.
That why we are not progressing as a nation leaving everything for God , the people in power even pastor know there’s no such thing that why they are using it anyhow because nobody will hold them accountable.

Is Dino inviting the EFCC to come and arrest him?

You can't claim to be only a politician and acquired all those wealth including your flashy cars
he who alleges must prove. You own the EFCC so, go to court

While a judge was once arrested for accepting a ₦20 bribe in 1976, today judges reside in houses constructed by Wike

...and that is why you people are all proud for the current Nigeria against the past Nigeria that serious people struggled to built which you have currently destroyed with your active support.
I don't care about who's in government, I am naturally against a thief calling another person a thief. That's why you see a yahoo boy, accusing an armed robber of being a thief, when in reality they are both thieves.

Dino will get there and forget just like others in the past and present

Dalohad a right example.

So, what's preventing the EFCC from arresting all the Politicians??

You guys know the truth, but would always choose to be telling comfortable lies to yourselves.
