Court Convicts Victor Mela, House Of Reps Member, For Lying Under Oath by fergie001(mod): 2:15pm On Nov 10, 2020
A Magistrate Court in Wuse, Zone 6, Abuja has found a member of the House of Representatives, Victor Mela, guilty of lying under oath while filing the CD001 INEC form prior to the 2019 elections.

The lawmaker, who represents Billiri/Balanga federal constituency of Gombe State, was convicted following prosecution by the FCT Police.

The presiding judge has however set a different date for the sentence of the lawmaker after his lawyer pleaded for leniency.

lying under this government is now a normal thing, not surprised about this.

We have gone that route before.

Remember Salisu Buhari (of Toronto University fame). Nobody should expect anything different from the sentencing.

I don't know much about law, but are they not supposed to mention the actual date set for the sentence?
Whichever way, I don't think anything will come out of this, he will find his way out of it. Nobody is even talking anything again about Orji Uzor Kalu

His mama and teachers must have warned him several times to stop lying while still young.

See where 'lie lie' has taken him to now.

Re: Court Convicts Victor Mela, House Of Reps Member, For Lying Under Oath by Patrickyemi:
You said CONVICTS and your last paragraph says the judge will fix a date for SENTENCE.

That isn't conviction naa.

Anyways, it will be good IF Naija judges are COURAGEOUS ENOUGH to attempt it.

It's only Christians that are
convicted for crimes.

Christian governors are facing
various corruption convictions because
their Muslim counterparts like
Gandollar, Nyako, former Yobe gov,
Sule Lamido etc are saints.

Southern peaceful protesters are shot
& killed, while north begs & bribes
killer bandits & buhari rewards Muslim
terrorists & kidnappers.

This Fulani government believes that our
judicial system is from our Christian
colonial masters, so, they refuse to
apply it on Muslims.
