    Criminals trying to cover for a criminal. Just follow the law, simple. You can't pay bribe. The Rome statute only covers crime of humanity. Nothing to do with personal crime.

    Once he's a suspect in a fraud case, arresting him is correct. Now it's up to him to prove his innocence. He must be jailed if found quilty despite being an MP.

    I personally think that Dafeamekpor is talking too much. He’s becoming more of a spokesperson and always wants to talk. Though, he’s in leadership, he should refrain from talking too much and allow himself some time.
