Justice Musa also asked the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, and the International Police to produce former Minister of Petroleum, Diezani Allison-Madueke, to face prosecution over the N362 million she sent to the two convicted INEC staff in order to compromise the 2015 presidential election in Adamawa State.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission had brought the case against Ibrahim Mohammed Umar, Sahabo Iya Hamman, both staff of INEC as well as the former Minister of Petroleum for conspiring to defraud the federal government with the intent to compromise the 2015 general elections.
The judge said he was giving a lenient sentence since the accused were first-term offenders adding that the sentence would run concurrently. “The offence has a mandatory provision. I’m constrained by the law. They shall be sentenced to seven years imprisonment without the option of fine. ” However in view of plea to temper justice with mercy, I will allow the sentence to run concurrently,” he said.
What about the person whom they have collected bribe from?...Justice is needed
GbenroAdegbola Wehdonsah!
Are those years enough to share between the 2 of them? Abeg🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️
INEC chairman Mahmood yakubu should be the one in jail not his staff....
Which election was that?
And the almighty inecnigeria chairman is walking free... 😅😆😂 Nizooria.
They are not the only ones na
How many again for Orji Uzo Kalu for looting? What a joke.
They received bribe from who and why is the person the rules were bended for still in office you people are just a gang of HYPOCRITES
The headline mehn😂
42 years what? Media and headings
I am ok with the fact that those who sin should observe the punishment. But i also feel the real person on target here is Alison(East), others are cover up. What of Northern corrupt members?.Are they immune to Law. I see partiality.
Lets wait and see how many yrs Mahmood ll bag
Who gave them the bribes and why weren't they named?
And one man in my local area was just 12years for 12billion fraud
I don't support corruption but what is the law doing about corrupt politicians who have ruined the economy of the country. The of the land should apply to people in all works of life without fear or favor.
Who gave the bribe, what is their punishment?
Iyen naa ma da
What of if the real criminals are still out there . What of if they have been framed. I don’t believe any justice is served here .
Let's hope they will get to the receivers of the contents of the bullion vans in Bourdillion street, Lagos during this year's presidential elections.
And gandollar is still governor?
Is the commander aware of this?
Getting closer
2 only 2, since 2015? Haq haq haq... I laugh in Chinese.
Only two?
What about their chairman?
This is only possible in a Regime.
Justice served at last!
Who bribe them?
Where is the giver of the bribe, what will happen to the results, will it till be valid?
Driver jam person na conductor our judiciary convict....
This should be a reminder to those that are still in active service that no power last forever, judgement day will come on a good day
Story for the gods... Shebi we here na baby....
This is why I hate our justice system, I don't know how the judiciary interprets laws,. Orji Uzor Kalu 12 years against this, totally absurd😣🙄😣😡. Disproportionate Justice.
The unlucky ones became scapegoats.
MAKE MILLIONS ON OUR DAILY FIXED GAMES
Scapegoats
It was about 2015 elections. What about the 2019 body bags election results in Nigeria?
Nigeria is not country, where there are people who stole public funds and still get state pardon.
It’s too big na why would they condemn him like this na what kind of fucked up justice system without intelligence... so after he suffered and finally out he will not be able to work..
I guess they must have received the bribe from the opposition
Just 2? The full inecnigeria staffs should also get theirs.
For taken bribe from PDP?
Politicians can go away with less punishment despite stealing huge sum of money, this is crazy.Where are those that gave d bribe?Our judicial system needs serious reform.Well,serve those inec staff right.
How about there boss...the inec chairman... He should be getting a life sentence. The main rat i wont catch....is the baby rat u r disturbing.
Is the 42 for the two or for each?
Northerner student later they will carry AK47
Only 2 what of
Receiving bribe a bigger offence than treasury looting in 9ja. Looters such as some ex-governors bagged 20 years bt INEC's gt 42. Pls how do our laws read?
Na today?🙄🙄
Whether selective or not, the fight against corruption is still ongoing. Kudos to EFCC
Check the details and you will be shocked that it was 'Operation crocodile witch-hunt'. Can the inec chairman report anyone that works in favour of.......🤐?
2015 election or 2019?
Scapegoats
Read the comments under this tweet and some reasons Nigerian graduates are unemployable will jump at you such as: too lazy to read; some can read but lack comprehension; hastiness to act without independent thinking; emotionally swayed to act their bias; too proud to learn. smh
Not until Yakubu Mamudu bag 200 years will I take things serious in this country.
Diezani will never know peace. Her sentence will be loud
Take a survey,since 2003 elections,2019 elections was the one the politicians least patronised INEC officials. 2015 was the worst.
Osetigo o. This second term many people will be jailed. That is one of the cardinal stands of this government. We have too many criminals holding public positions of trust. They need to be jailed to serve as a deterrent to others.
And what happened to the person that bribed and who they were bribed for?
Lie lie people, which Court judge am!
lol ,what about those that paid the bribe nko
Excellent...Nation waking up
Guess it must be inecnigeria staff from Kogi State November 16th Gubernatorial elections that became a massacre, a smackdown, beatdown, war; that eventually had the Unmitigated Disaster GovernorBello back for another Four years to unleash mayhem,poverty & total chaos on Kogites
Read the story before you comment or you will be given 6months sentence for not reading before commenting. Diezani Allison Maduekwe again this woman will definitely go to jail
What about those who offered the bribes?
Okay

Bribe frm PDP right
What of those that gave the bribe
They should die there idiots
Bribes and they got 42 😏All this judges don’t fail to amaze me with their judgements 🚶♂️🚶♂️🚶♂️
Bias judgment.Buhari and his APC cohorts rigged the general election black and blue with senior inec staff and till date nothing has happened. You just picked the opposition to make noise
What about the 'Chairman'?
And you refuse to jail the givers too..What if the receivers of the bribes don't have any choice than to collect it because the givers are very powerful and the lifes or work of the receivers is been threatened by the givers..What choice did the receivers have than to collect..
The judiciary system is very corrupt that's why mr president is disrespecting them.
dondekojo What about those who gave them the bribe? What's their penalty?
For Sale 4 plots of land each measuring approximately 514.749SQM at Ijaye road, Odo oba area, behind Celestial church & adjacent Ajorosun estate, land is meters from Kings College, Moniya, Ibadan. Price: ₦500k/plot
Is Mahmoud Yakubu one of them... If not it is a charade
Prof Mahmud should be inclusive
dondekojo What about who give them the bribe?
You won't link them to major. Gen. Buhari?
How many years for those who gave the bribe?
How many years did Orji Uzor kalu get again.. Those wer study Law sef, what's your yardstick to all this sentences.. Person thief billions na 12yrs or there about.. Small bribe 47yrs.. Insane
How about the ppl who offered d bribe
inecnigeria where is the bribe giver? Free? Lol. Naija!
Who knows whether the two INEC staffs were the honest ones in the polling unit being prosecuted for their sincerity...
i wish
The person who gave them the bribe and the political party should be jailed too. And that district election be canceled.
Suphanallah
🙆🏿♂️🙆🏿♂️🙆🏿♂️Buhari
What sentence was measured to the politicians who bribed them?
😁😂🤣
Is the current INEC chairman among them?
And politicians got what...?
Where is the person that gave the bribe. The justice system is sick an deserves no respect
They were both sentenced to 7 years on three count charges brought against them. Each charge carries 7 years. The jail time would run concurrently. So they would both spend, 7 years each in prison.
If they bag 42years...how many years will Yakubu Dahoud will bag....I guess he will die by hanging... Useless people punishing innocent pesin
Audio Jail....
The people that paid the bribe nko?
If ordinary staff receives 42 years for taking bribe from a ghost, I thought bribe giver is equally culpable, then Affidavit Prof Yakubu Mahmoud will get how many years and Buhari and his evil APC, the givers, how many🤔
They should die there
So how much years sentence does the convicted politicians Orji Kalu and the rest bagged? NigBarAssoc
What happens to the giver?, two people are involved in this, don't punish one and leave the other untouched oo, we demand to know what happens to the giver NigeriaGov
This is rubbish! How much was the bribe compared to the fraud Orji Kalu was just convicted of and he got just 12 years. Our judiciary system is definitely asleep. This is not justice. We need tougher punishment for corrupt politicians in Nigeria. A punishment they all fear.
Lol. What of politicians that stole billion'S. E.g uncle J.D just 12years.
Bribe? But a man caught on camera receiving bribe in dollars is still a governor today. Anyway vote for Kalu when you get to prison.
And the one that stole billions will only get 12years in jail. Isn't our system lopsided?
There are many of them out there.
Not when they appeal the judgement and it takes 3years to get a date from the Court of Appeal .
And the person that gave the bribe? bag how many years? And some couple of days ago someone was given just 12 years for N7.1b..
So what will happen to the inec chairman? Maybe he did take bribe...
Now that’s something u don’t read or hear often
👏 👏
Y'all see the humor in this right 😂😂😂
Politicians that offers such should get double...until that is achieved, judiciary has a long way to go in Nigeria
What of those that gave them bribes? I hope they're lock up forever too?
When is Yakubu Mahmoud going inside on his own ? And when are they investigating Jega ?
And orji uzor kalu got how many years? ...
Who gave them bribe at the first place please, kindly send him or her to jail too at least 30 years
if they are not in kano forget it.... Just release them
Only ?
Scapegoats the real ones that got bribed well are flying in presidential jets
Am sure the two of them are not northerners
And Mahmoud Yakubu walks around a free man. InecNigeria is a scam sanitizing it will start from sacking the top leadership and holding them accountable for crimes against the Nigerian people
Nice one.
Bribe from who ?
So what happened to those that have the bribe? This is Nigeria
This happens during major general Buhari
Great!
But a man convicted of stealing billions belonging to the masses only bagged 12 yrs? Only in naija!
Inside life
What about the person that give the bribe? Pawn in a game of chess.
And orgi kalu bag 12yrs
