The Supreme Court of Nigeria today quashed all charges of corruption
earlier leveled against PDP Chieftain and close pal of former president
Olusegun Obasanjo, Chief Bode George. The Supreme Court Judges headed
by Justice Afolabi Fabiyi while passing
their verdict said the charges of contract splitting brought against Mr
Bode George by the EFCC was unknown to the law at the time he was
convicted of the crime.
A Lagos high court judge, Justice
Joseph Olubunmi Oyewole on Oct 2009 convicted Chief Bode George and 5
others for corruption and diversion of funds totalling N84billion when
they served on the board of the Nigerian Ports Authority, NPA. He was
sentenced to 2 years imprisonment and was released Feb 26 2011. So now, he's no longer an ex-convict.

This is quite funny. Bode was arrested, investigated, convicted, and sentenced to 2 years in prison. He served his sentence and all of a sudden his conviction and prison sentence is cancelled. This cannot be because 2015 elections are coming up. Also notice that the judge didn't say he was innocent of the crimes. And this fool stole billions and was given two years now the two years has been wiped from the record books. Hahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahaha is the best response for these fools. Former bayelsa gov now is jumping around saying all sorts of shit. Do these guys think they are leading illiterates? Abi they think we don't understand English? His crimes were unknown to law? Abeg whose job is it to make his crimes known? Make we just start comedy series about naija politics e go sell die. Shekina

No wonder Baba said in his 18paged letter that the way and manner in which this current administration is embracing corruption is obviously beyond believe. I am not surprised seeing this. What a same!

Naija for sure, I tuwale for this country, Bribery at work....... Hoooo, na dem sabi we don hear. Na God go save us frm this people.
A thief is a thief!
Still an ex convict sir!
So deal with it sir!
I'm not surprise really. Animals in human clothing. Sior..
So did the money develop wings and disappeared? He is still an ex-con. The judge should be tried and when (not if) found guilty, should be jailed.
Corruption!
~D great anonymous!

My heart bleeds when I see corrupt public officers like Bode George on TV and at social functions, when they should be cooling off in jail for disloyalty and unfaithfulness to the nation. He was fraudulent as a Military Governor in Ondo-State and also went to NPA and exhibited his usual Lagos boy's smartness..I can see the hand of Hon. Justice Bode Rhodes-Vivour at work... I wish him goodluck in the lawless country.
Obasanjo at work. 2moro he will start writing rubbish 100 page letter to goodluck. He is yet to tell us what happened to d 16 billion $ electricity contract which he awarded to his allies that never saw d light of d day. Siemens and halliburton scandle which him and his daughter were indicted, no one talks about it. The only time u punks spit fire is whenever you disagree on monatary and power issues with goodluck. The only reason why bode ur frnd was convicted was bcuz he carelessly called u an ex convict during a telephone conversation with someone which you overheard and u promised to make him an ex convict also which u ended up achieving. Now u have used ur influence and connection in d judiciary to clear his name ahead of 2015 bcuz u fantasize on removing goodluck from d office. U need all ur political machinery to work at its best hence you making all these failed last minute arrangements. Some vulnerable pple after reading ur self serving letters, started posting nonesense comments. It was ony u obj that increased fuel from 22 naira to about 56 naira which is about 8times. Nonesense people.
Supreme Court in Nigeria is the last hope of Common Thief!!!
Me too! Lips sealed
Everything happen in my country Nigeria,aint surprise about the news
Wen u have frds like olusegun obasanjo in nigeria....it speaks volumes....
For the sake of good
Nigeria will never ever progress with these kind of childish exhibitions
Why are they doing this
why!!!!!!!!!

No be Nigeria? Anything can happen. Steal 84bn and you get 2 years. Them years later esponge his criminal record! While you are at it, let's give him one of our refineries! Bastard country! God why you let my mama born me here?
First alamesigha gets state pardon,Mustapha is released all of a sudden,next to be cleared is tafa balogun.Mr. president,whoever your advisers are,they don't mean well for you nor us.
Jonathan should just resign and apologize to Nigerian that he has failed us.Because of politics all the PDP criminals are been given clean bills.First it Imo deputy governor and bode George.
A convict will always be a convict. Ex or no ex.
Whatever! Fact remains that he spent some "quality" time in prison.
@Cynzoey,he said a family of 7(5 sibling+2parents)..That totals 7! How hard is that to decipher....
Best comment ever. One billion likes on dis one
God go punish dis pple oh! Na wah oh! Nigeria judiciary! Dem go wan com arrest yahoo boys abi? God punish dem
Honestly. The lesson is to steal big in Nigeria. All the big thieves are free. The pension fund thief Maina, NPA thief Bode Geoge, Alams got state pardon. All in the name of 2015. GEJ is a desperado. Iku ni ere ese. Death is the ultimate end of those troubling this country. ( Curse mode activated).
Its disgusting. How many people will Linda give money. People should pls find something to do and stop looking for freebies. It. Sucks.
God bless you for this comment.
Stella na kindergaten compared to Bode George and Maina.
.... We r matching on to take our place among all the nations of the world. Lolzzz
My comment is not about this post, it's for sis Lindiway...
This morning, I just want 2 encourage you to keep doing the good you are known for, I asked one LIBer that how come sis Lindiway usually publish comments that advertise other blog sites on her own blog and now the answer to that question is crystal clear, I choose 2 look @ your strong sides and ignore your weaknesses, I see you going bigger than a blogger, pls don't be surprised if u eventually sits on that Aso rock big chair one day, you have shown great traits of a good leader, you take critics, insults and make best use of them, always knw that no matter how bad, no matter how worst, you have some people that naturally believe in your leadership prowess, on many occassion here on this blog, you habe whao(ed) me and my prayer for you today is by the grace of God that created all humans, LindaIkeji in the next 1000days, the two most commented post her on LIB will be the post that will announce the day you gonna knot that holy tie and the post that will show your baby bump....you will one day refer to this comment....Says Seyifunmi
Na wa 4 Naija.

Comment with caution here if you are not trained in law. The Supreme Court exercises wide discretion in the judicature in many ways than one. It is not duty bound to duck the appeal, only to return the case back for trial at the High Court. It is never too late to approach the hierarchy of courts for justice. If you throw up allegations you cannot substantiate, your case can only succeed for a while. That is the moral. It takes a minimum of 6 years training to become a lawyer. If you think na beans go enroll. Puerile logicians here should take a back seat and learn that our courts are driving home the message clearly: have your facts; parcel your evidence with clinical finish before you go crying "crucify him." Public opinion is not evidence; it is not law, let alone conjectures or speculations. I am happy that the courts are totally detached from the mob calling itself public opinion!!!!!!!!!!!! My worry is: how will Bode George now find compensation for the years he spent in jail? It is sad.
Should we continue in sin so that grace may abound? Naija story!
God will contenue to punish you all in government as you are all touring with our lives .on 32 count ibori was set free but just only 8 count he was sent to 5years jail no paroll he will serve all the years ,look here in nigeria these fools animal in human forms tink they are leading iletrate God plz waste no time to come and conzume them
Naija!!!!!!!!!!!!!, kudos for u oo. Am sometimes force to ask dis question that, hw dis country is going and governed, can dis country be beta. With corruption at every nukes and cranes of d country. And my question is still unanswered.
Which ever political post dey wnt 2 give him dey are vry free .. we dot hav say .....u dot need 2 explain weda na ex convict or nt.. . But na fools dese pple dey call us oooh... Well..
Iyke igboaka don't be stupid how would someone dat old rule as a president. Mtchewww
Onye oshi bu onye oshi, no matter how many times they wipe his record. Political thieves & judicial thieves.

Lol! Linda won't think d same. Are u broke or is ur family poor?
@Anon 5:42pm stop begging pls! U have 2 earn it u fcking piece of shit
