chuka85:
The court held that the maximum sentence of 14 years for the counts was excessive especially because the appellant is a first-time offender

Justice Stephen Adah who read the unanimous judgment of the three-man panel also quashed the sentence in count 12.

According to the panel, the lower court which had earlier found Dariye not guilty for the charge should not have sentenced him on the charge.

The court also quashed count 23 because the persecution did not prove beyond reasonable doubt that the former governor diverted the funds of the state to purchase a house in London.

The court, therefore, reduced the sentences to 10 years for each count which is to run concurrently.

When the Prseident tried to act to reform judiciary, the stupid wailers were nagging like he-goats
It was a step in the right direction then but the opposition looked at it and used it as a tool to discredit the government....Nigerian judges and legal system is the problem of this country in terms if institutions and cooperate governance..... No single template or mode operation....judgements are given based on connection, monetary kick back and relationship and not based on evidence or stated facts....

Dariye and his people that were boasting that he would be freed on Appeal as the dullard had assured them. If only his name was Ganduje.
Don’t be in hurry Ganduje’s fate is coming. Dariye’s offences were committed well over 10 years ago.

He's definitely not a first time offender oo...he has been embezzling and evacuating the coffers of the government since he was elected, he only just got caught now, it should even be increased to 100years, and if he dies before he completes it, his next of kin should continue the imprisonment. Yeye people!

Reduction of sentence is not supposed to be the way. Nigerians are awaiting justice on other public servants' matter.

If you are not mad, then you will recollect that no single politician was jailed throughout the 6 wasted years of your lord and saviour Goatluck Jonathieve. Now, EFCC under Buhari through the Courts has jailed two former thieving governors. Was there no EFCC under Goatluck? Even the corrupt judges that collect bribes from politician to set them free, Buhari and DSS has taught them a lesson of their lifes. So, if you cannot thank Buhari for this, kindly shut the fucck up before I forcefully shut it for you.
