    Still the normal tradition in Nigeria, the rich gets judgement very easily and faster than the lower class Nigerians. If these Sargent robbed a normal Nigerian, he’ll only be dismissed and will never have to get to the court. But, since it involves a former president, all punishments will be put in place for him

      Listen to yourself, if Nigerian government delays justice at all, it is not this type of case that should be delayed. The person involved is a Sargent in the Nigerian police force, he should be sentenced to life imprisonment. He’s such a disgrace to the police force

        Did you say disgrace? How much is his salary? The police should treat their officers well and they won’t have any reason for stealing. What is the different between Musa and other people collecting bribes?
