Kalu was charged alongside Jones Udeogo, the state Commissioner for Finance during his tenure as the governor.
Kalu’s company, Slok Nig. Ltd., was also a defendant in the suit.

Ruling, Justice Mohammed Idris sentenced Orji Kalu to 12 years in prison for N7.65 billion fraud.
The court also ordered that the Slok Nig. Ltd. Should be wound up and its assets forfeited to the Federal Government
#Shame Shame Shame!!!

DeleteEmbarrassing!
ReplyDeleteWhat is embarrassing is that an Igbo man stole from his kinsmen. He should have been jailed for 30years
DeleteEthnic judgment
ReplyDeleteLet us see what happens to Maina pension boss who stole and ran away.
This mentality is the major problem in Nigeria.

ReplyDeleteIn politics, charity begins at home.
DeleteOrji Kalu failed woefully when he mortgaged Abia state interests on a frivolous national politics. Rochas turn is currently hibernating. Amaechi and others time will come.
Orji Kalu was jailed not only for being corrupt because hardly you will see a Nigerian politician that is not highly corrupt. I am beginning to see 2023 presidential interests as a converging circle that instigated his woes. Orji Kalu was not smart enough by swimming in a crocodile infested water without a shield.
Tinubu was able to corner his zone before going national. But then, he is equally swimming in a crocodile infested water. Does he have enough shield?
If you were from Abia, you won’t make such foolish comment. He robbed us blind along with his mother. He stole from Igbo people so yes he should go to jail.
Delete2023
DeleteTake no chances
Take away the possible opposition
Death sentence for all corrupt politicians, not this insignificant number of years in prison. We all know he's going to get a VIP treatment there.
ReplyDeleteI dont care if he gon get presidential treatment there, putting him down is good enough for me. The clown always comes back to bite!
DeleteI can't believe some comments I am reading here. So some bvs see this has injustice against Kanu because he is an Igbo man, some are even saying it is because he didn't support Jonathan so Buhari is his karma and we all want a great nation but we tribalize every issue hummmm. His case has been on for a long time and this shows this administration is serious about the corruption fighting. This is a judgment that can never be deliver in a PDP government especially not the government of Jonathan because his government was about stealing.
DeleteWhatttttttttt 😱
ReplyDeleteWow!!! Finally Judgement has begun from the ''church''...after joining APC, lolzzz
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm hope this is not just for the headline. And hope he hasn't been flown out of the country in disguise of being in prison, anything is possible in this corrupt country.
ReplyDeleteIf really he's in prison he surely deserved it, because he finished Abia state.
I praised the court led by Justice Muhammad Idris for doing a good job. We are satisfied that justice was served. It is clear that the court took the time to think about what was presented to them before and earlier this year. It was a lot of information and the issues of corruption were national issues, as far as we as Nigerians are concerned. The corruption allegations were very, very serious, so we are satisfied that justice was served.
Delete@Iyke I just hope so.
DeleteNice one from you Iyke. One down, Fayose should be next.
DeleteThis crook looted Abia state's resources and handed over to another incompetent and corrupt fellow TA Oji who continued where he stopped. Today the curri Governor is struggling because previous governors stole the state dry.
ReplyDeleteThe other Thief called TA Oji will surely have his day in court.
The fool thought decamping to APC would save him.
I'm patiently waiting for T. A Orji's turn. Ekwensu!
DeleteAll their occultic power no come help him? Is he going to serve or he'll pay fine? Ajuju n'ese okwu.
ReplyDeleteGood news
ReplyDeleteI hope this is not an audio sentence
ReplyDeleteIt's not looking like it o.
DeleteThere has to be a scapegoat.
Really??? will like to see how he look in his new uniform
ReplyDeleteI hope others will soon join him.
ReplyDeleteServes him right!
ReplyDeleteHe's been used and dumped!
Whoever serves the caliphate against his own people must return home with shame and disgrace. This is a judgement well served. Godwills Akpabio should be next.
DeleteAnd this is what await governor Dickson seriake of Bayelsa state
ReplyDeleteI say a thunderous Amen to it
DeleteIdonbelivit!!! What's happening to the igbo tribe since the beginning of this regime??? Oh Lord have mercy
ReplyDeleteJesu!From hero to zero!!!!!!!!!!!!!Chei
ReplyDeleteAnd this IDIOT fuck u finish skin to skin carry useless $1000 give u. Idiot
ReplyDeleteAnon, come and finish this gist
DeleteIf you don't know the details, dig properly,don't jump to conclusion, I thank God from refraining me from serve you in your coin. I leave you to God. May life humble you.Thank you
DeleteAs in ehhhh wicked bastard. With his inhaler doing as if it’s his last breath.
DeleteThe one thy ticks me off the most is his early morning prayers. You carry woman, sleep with her, wake up in the morning and start praying to start the day.
Stole his $20k bastard. No time for rubbish.
@14:24
DeleteIf he is IDIOT, what are you, SHEDIOT?
Did he bargain and fix price without paying before you spread legs like mat?
Did he rape you?
Have you ever seen 1000 dollars in your life?
And what have you really given in exchange for your soul?
Hasn't the 1k dollars finished?
@16:35
DeleteAnd you that stole his 20k, what are you -are you not supposed to serve 2 years of this his sentence?
Isn't it the stolen money that you stole?
And when you pray (without repenting of your "nyanshing" around) aren't you also insulting and nauseating God?
You are cheap. Women I know who’ve dated this man got a lot due to his generosity. The skin to skin sex is spiritual. Go for deliverance because he’s very fetish.
DeleteThis is what happens to you when;
ReplyDelete1. You are not in any of the main poli-thieving parties.
2. You have had a presidential run, championed your ethnic cause
and then jump to the ruling party when efcc dogs are released on you.
3. occultism backfires
4. You quarreled with your original poli-thieving party and they
were the ones that banned your aircraft from Nigeria and you move to another
African country.
5. You have a mother who pilots all your affairs including wives'
All those that took cover in APCC; former governors, Northern oligarch descendants
etc. will not be touched. EFCC actually answers to them... and prosecute those they
point at.
His mother is the champion of his occultism. I don't know who initiated who.
DeleteAPC and not APCC*
DeleteHis Mummy initiated all of them. She’s a witch.
Just see how they sent out one of the leading contenders for the Presidential 2023 race in one fell swoop...
ReplyDeleteLeading contenders where? Hahahaha! In your head right?
DeleteHe should go and beg APC. After all, they specialize in pardoning thieves....
ReplyDeleteWhy he got ONLY 12 YEARS is what I'm struggling to understand. All the people that were looking to China as template to gag citizens in the name of "anti-hate Bill", do they not see what China does to corrupt politicians and public officials?
ReplyDeleteServes him Right....Dear Anons14:24 pls come and gist us oooooo.......
ReplyDeleteAnon 14:24 come out of anon mode,why hide and call a fellow human stupid ? Judge Judy and angel Michael. May sense fall on you.Thank you. Let people struggling with their inner issues be.A word of encouragement will go a long way not the bile you are spewing , may God open your eyes.
ReplyDeleteHis assets should be forfeited to Abia State not Federal Government.
ReplyDeleteIt's the his state and people he stole from. They should use the proceeds from sale of his forfeited assets to construct some roads in Aba and other parts of Abia.
I think I said same thing and someone told me that the State didn't report missing funds or persecute the past governor so it's the FG that did so the reason the money will go to the FG
DeleteThey won't forgive him oh. They know he has presidential ambition...so they are making sure it doesn't see the light of the day. make they deal with am small
ReplyDeleteSLOK that has been bankrupt since in Gambia. They should lock the idiot and throw away the key. He has no more base now. He sold his soul to PMB and alienated his Igbo base. Now the Fulani have buried him. He is on his own. I don't think there is any Igbo man that will visit the idiot in prison
ReplyDeleteSafe journey sir
ReplyDeleteVery good judgement. He even get mind to begged prison warder not to handcuff him in public. When he was packing public he didn't remember that this day will come. More to come.
