The former Nigeria Port Authority (NPA) board chairman and a chieftain of the ruling People's Democratic Party (PDP), Bode George, has been convicted by Justice Olubunmi Oyewole of the Lagos High Court.

He is sentenced to twenty eight years for a 35-count charge that is to run concurrently.

The former South West deputy chairman of the PDP was charged by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in 2008 for contract inflation to the tune of N84 billion with four other board members, during his tenure as the chairman of the NPA board between 2000 and 2003.

Only if he will enter the prison room for 30 second,this is an amount that if 1million each is given to each citizen will still have excess remaining.

The real rich people in this country are we the hustlers at least what is happening in the banking sectors now is an evidence that those we celebrated as rich are debtors and looters.
