The level of greed is mind boggling. Only 500bn. Why not try for 1 trillion? I guess he had a heart and decided that 500bn was a small and gentle figure🙄

DeleteHe'd have that money stashed somewhere in a tax haven and make up his mind that prison is a better choice. He'd definitely be out one day and that's if he doesn't get the judge handling his case to throw it out for 5 billion naira or less. Either way, he wins. Tomorrow, he'll run for governor and his people will sing his praises.
Dog, and the amazing part of this story is that he has only been in that position for 3 years, probably less depended on when he started. 500bn siphoned out of the nation’s coffers in 3 years. Just imagine if he had lasted 10 years.
DeleteI keep telling ppl that Nigeria is not a poor country, it is the spirit of good governance and godliness that is poor in its leaders.
Heartless men at all levels= Why Nigeria is the way it is
