Making sense of it is vital to all us.

A federal capital territory, FCT high court presided over by Justice Sulaiman Belgore on Tuesday 31^st January 2012 discharged a former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Dimeji Bankole and his deputy, Bayero Nafada of the corruption charges filed against them by Nigeria’s anti-graft agency,EFCC.

Bankole was arraigned last year of looting the accounts of the House of Representatives as speaker using the public account to borrow money from the banks, which were eventually laundered to buy choice properties at giveaway prices. Through such acts of money laundering his family is the proud owner of the NITEL building in Lagos as well as his former residence which was sold to him for meager N40 million.

So now they were acquitted on the basis that they have no case to answer in connection with a N40billion embezzlement charge.

Is this fair?
