Was Tinubu d one that coordinated or nominated those names??

Those guys were nominated by a committee for pardon.

U guys keep blaming the government for everything

Wait! I am a bit confused with most, almost all, of the people who have commented here are saying.

Recommendation is not acceptance in law. And we all know this.

Bola Tinubu recommended some people for ministerial positions and when they were reviewed, they didn't make the cut.

But he had to nominate and announce his list, first, before the review committee would start their own jobs.

Were his nominations for pardon terrible? I feel so. Did it reflect a bias for criminals? Again, I feel so. But then, that's his own prerogative.

As the Nigerian public, we are to cry out that the review committee do what is societally just and fair and cut off his personal bias.

And the society has spoken, we await what the reviewers will end up with.

The country is battling with kidnapping and the bad image that drug pushers has given us internationally. Then the ones that we manage to apprehend the president is granting them presidential pardon. 🤡

That one with kidnapping history should not be speard, or else he would go back to business as as usual. In fact lets know the person that recommended him in the first place, he may know something about current kidnapping that is happening in Nigeria.

I don't get it, is tribalism blinding you guys or what?

Are you saying you'll sign a document without reading it or asking what's in it?

Your education seems useless if you sign without understanding.

You should be ashamed.

It is not just Tinubu that is confused even his poor hungry die hard supporters. If this news did not breakout like this some of the stupid supporters would still be supporting the evil of the drug lord, thank God their principal is contemplating the useless decision he took a while ago.

I really do not have problems with his rich supporters but the poor ones who have never benefitted a thing from the evil man and yet support evil of this clueless individual and his evil party in empty stomach and huge debt.

That killa girl's pardon should be revoked 💯 par-cent.

A rascal is a five year old mischievous child. A rascal is a teenager who jumps fences to sneak to buy alcohol and find pro/stitu/tes. A rascal is a crazy fella who toasts women recklessly. A rascal is that man or woman who lives on the edge but means little harm.

This one you see so: na demon from the pit of hell, a place he will surely return to once heaven relieves us of his odious presence.

Eeyah ndooh!!!

Go and drink cold water so your hate filled nerves can relax to avoid sudden exploded BP because hospital bill not a joke at the moment.

You go cry taya but unfortunately 2031 still far away and no matter how hard you try the truth is your obi will never ever and ever rule Nigeria so the early you get this fact the better for you.

Hate Tinubu till tomorrow he will only vacate Aso Rock by 2031 and you can not do nada about it. You hear!!!

Is this government seeking blood?

Why will a sane government be releasing violent killers?

Something sinister is going on, first they release bokoharam killers, no they are releasing kidnappers, when people with misdemeanour and awaiting trial for petty crimes etc, abound in prison. These politicians don't care they move with security, it's the citizens that bear the brunt of these evil decisions.

Elections aside, you should bear in mind that only God knows how long anyone will live. This is something Yaradua said all the time.

Is this how you reason every day or are you paid to defend misdeeds?

It better be the latter, else something is wrong.

All drug barons should have their names dropped from that list.
Kidnappers and those with record of violent crime should have their names dropped from the list.

Those that smuggled the names on the list are on this forum. They should be thoroughly investigated

Konquest:
It's under review and hasn't been finalized.

criminal apc una de smuggle name nothing is impossible under apc

Those who should be getting these pardons are those in prison for reasons and causes they know nothing about, those with little offences but locked up, those unable to pay little fines passed on them by the court through judgment, those with non-life-threatening offences, those falsely accused...not those who will get out, regroup, and start seeking revenge.

Such a lame excuse, so before governing the president such list, the committee didn’t think of doing their due diligence by sending all such names to the prosecutorial Agencies that took such convicts to court and get clearance

Shame on the AGF who happens to chair the committee

This whole pardon saga is a total embarrassment. How do you release such a sensitive list without proper vetting or consulting everyone “consultable”? In a properly run system, this pardon list should never even get to the President or Council of State (or even be announced) without ensuring real work has gone into professional and institutional vetting. The Ministry of Justice, Correctional Service, EFCC, NDLEA, Police, etc., should all have gone through it diligently and presented a clean, defensible list to the Council before the public ever saw it. But no, we just love drama. They had the President approve a poorly reviewed list, waited for public outrage, and are now “reviewing” it after the damage is done. Classic cart-before-the-horse governance that these so-called leaders are known for. And of course, the usual excuse: “low-level members smuggled in names.” Please! The real failure is right at the top: the Attorney General’s office and everyone who signed off blindly.

As always, nobody will be held responsible, and if anyone is, we’ll never hear of it. Things like this make those of us who still care about this country lose hope.

slyzy:
What an embarrassment.

So they untend to tell us that some officers snuggled some names in the list?

They can safe face for all we care but we now known another low level to their perversity

This is Nigeria.

Government Employment are paid for. There is a buyer and a seller.

I am 100% sure that some of the names on that list were paid for. 100%

Two things here

The total failure of institutions and conversely the 'personalisation' of government on steroids.

This is what you get with an autocracy. Where there are no checks and balances. Where institutions operate at the whim of the maxim leader. All.it takes to rise above the law is to get close to the autocrat.

That is why Nigerians will have to accept that so called junior civil servants or so called low level officers can subvert the rule of law.

What again is the definition a banana republic then.
So sad.

Like I said in my only previous response to this matter.
You can do anyhow to the people that careless about how they are governed.

But once you begin to undermine the institutions of security and defence, of law and order, the government is playing with fire and like it happened with the De Gaulle government in France you begin to plant dissent within those institutions that can snowball into a very, very dangerous situation.

Nigerians should stand up and begin to properly structure their country. Cast aside sentiment and build their country around strong institutions to counter the unbridled powers of autocracy.

Because the country you fail to give form may work in your interest today, but may end up destroying your destiny tomorrow. I am cocksure almost every Nigerian today agrees and wished the past governments particularly the Buhari government had viable institutions to check it in place. A lot of what we are suffering today will have been avoided.

Let us not live out lives in perpetual regret as a nation. Always after the fact.

You really can't blame Tinubu on this...Even if you were the president, the same thing would happen

In thing like this, some top officers must have been heavily bribed to free some inmates and try use sinister ways to compromise the list

Heheheheheh.

Finally, someone had added me to the "laptop boys" on nairaland.

#break dancing all over my study room#

It's one's belief that Tinubu, as a person, didn't go through the list himself.

Some individuals in the PAC, including the AGF, had to smuggle in some names to score sinister motives.

It's highly commendable that such mischief didn't escape the scrutiny of ever-alert well-meaning Nigerian citizens.

Presidential pardons, although at the discretion of Mr President, mustn't be abused for selfish reasons.

Nigerians now await the corrected list of only deserving individuals and not a free-for-all gale of pardons.

Good point. But learn basic punctuation rules. It will help you a lot.

Please speak for yourself.

I dont sign documents without reading.

CrownedPhoenix:
Maryam Sanda's case will definitely undermine confidence in the justice system.

Which one is "she has two children who would become orphans"? Is that not a thought she should have considered herself?

Is the Federal Govt telling women go on killing spree, that is okay to kill their husbands once they have children, you'd walk free?

Even if it was Bilyaminu's father that killed him, he'd be made to face justice too. The fact that he has forgiven her is utter bullocks and inconsequential. That Baba is a politician, he may have concluded on a "deal" with Sanda's father.

Maryam Sanda should be an example on what anger can do to a person and a reminder on the sanctity of human life. Her case will definitely undermine confidence in the justice system.

You wrote eruditely and you are totally on point. How do we have confidence in the judiciary with these kind of pardon
