So #20 naira na loan?


The man must be sick

Cool...This North people ehn


I will design your professional website today...check my signature

Ok

#20 loan you say??

Those niggas up north can even kill u over grass, talk more of 20bucks

Just imagine de value of life in de North.

Did i just see 20 naira loan. Human life is worthless in this part of the world where we have heartless individuals living in frustration and mental sickness.

I smell lies . there is more to this than 20 naira

Wait. Was it N20 or N20million How can you kill someone over N20? Na Nigeria police I know dey do dat kind thing over N20/N50 bribe money.

The thing about s the guy defended himself which is wrong.. A lawyer should hv pleaded his case...
He killed quite alright.. But then i believe he did not premeditate it..

You can't be planning to kill someone because of 20box... I belief there is something that the decease said or did while asking for the 20naira which drove him into the bastardy act...
For the offence of murder to lie, he needed to have planed to kill the guy, bought the scisors for the purpose, and then carried out the purpose.

But the situation where, he and the guy had an argument and a fight broke out, and say the friend hit him with something and he seeing a scissors, took it to stab the friend, which i bliv was the most likely case, so the accuse should have pleaded provocation, and provocation turns murder to life sentence, but the guy had no one to defend and plead his case and he is to die for that... Not fair.

Boko haram that kill and maim dozenz are only taken to correction facilities and released back to society, but this niga is to be hung for killin for #20... And the guy is just 25.. We do mistakes in our lives, some very costly ones, this one should have cost him the rest of his life behind bars, and not not his life..

N20 abi N20k
