    Haba!! This is wickedness. just for stealing 51million? what of politicians stealing billions? this judge must be biased in this judgement. No option of fine, hard labour. 3 or 4yrs would have been okay even without hard labour sef.This judgement should be appealed and reviewed

    No politician has been convicted and jailed in a long while in this country. Those caught did "plea bargain" and were let off the hook. Other served 2yrs and thereafter went to church for thanksgiving! This country sef. We do the important things last and unimportant things first.
