So all the govt has to do, is pick up any citizen "accuse" him for sleeping with the president's wife, and then later on offer him amnesty? What you are doing is being contemptuous of the law courts, let the courts do their job...

Sycophants will always construe the prevailing situation to mean peace. The present peace can be found in a graveyard. If injustice is being intimidated thereby forcing it into what we believed to be charade,amnesty, then there is a temporal silence and this silence can be presented as the so-called peace. The new face of one Nigeria shall rise with justice and equity. The enduring peace sought by Nigeria and Nigerians will happen as soon as fiscal federalism is holistically applied. If peace were awarded on unnecessary prolixity, I say congratulations -A member of MEND ONLINE Fellow Nigerians, sycophancy is a critical part of mental slavery and WE have long agreed that it is incompatible with honesty.
