vanguardngr That is not a Stelling

vanguardngr It's a pity ...Such an old poor hungry man looking for what to eat...Regrettable and shameful on bad economy of the nation..Wicked judgement by the judge for not showing mercy and sympathy for his fellow Oldman!

vanguardngr For a man of 62yrs to sell bread and toothpaste simply means he is an hungry man and needed something to eat. The bread seller should have retrive back his or her goods back from him if he cannot allow him to go with him instead of gettig him arrested.

vanguardngr What a potty? Government failed to provide him with source of livelihood. And now he will be jailed for stealing bread to feed himself. A common man is indeed in trouble....

vanguardngr This is justice. It willooks serve as deterrent to other hungry people not to steal bread, and allow tooth decay. For humanity sake stealing bread is not a crime. Which kind country we dey?

vanguardngr Which kind yeye justice be this ? Una wicked oooo, make una free her ooo

vanguardngr Could it be hunger? May be.

vanguardngr Imagine. Dese judges or watever dey are, are very mad

vanguardngr Ridiculous.

vanguardngr SAYNOTOCOLONIZATION BIAFRAISNOTONEWITHnigeria NOW, HE GATS STEAL AGAIN TO PAY THE STUPID BAIL, BASED ON STUPID HUMAN WRITTEN CONSTITUTIONS, STUPID JUDGES, & THEIR KANGAROO COURTS.. WHY IS THE 62 YEAR OLD NOT ON PENSION? WHY DOES HE HAVE TO STEAL BREAD?

vanguardngr N150,000 bail bond for stealing bread of N600 and toothpaste of N700? This why our police cells and prisons are over congested. A man who stole items of less than 2K can’t n wouldn’t ever secure such bail. Better fast track his case n let justice prevail.

vanguardngr The bread seller and the court to hell with you.

vanguardngr All the man stole put together was N39,600 and got a bail of N150,000 now the men who constantly loathe our treasury in billions on daily basis what fraction of bail do they get?

vanguardngr And this happened in Nigeria?... The judge who made this sentencing should be sentenced to life imprisonment... That's my judgment!

vanguardngr If the economy was better than it is now, he wouldn’t steal to satisfy his hunger. I weep for Nigeria.

vanguardngr it is well ooooo,while those that stole billions are being elected as senators.

vanguardngr And where on earth will he get N150,000

vanguardngr Can u imagine? What about people stealing billions? They walk freely after paying 50million bail. How many 50 millions is in a billion? Law is for the masses in Nigeria. The rich is above the law but not above God.

vanguardngr A man steals bread and toothpaste and he's slammed with a bail of 150k. If he had 150k na bread and toothpaste him go thief? Judge pls think this one through abeg.
