Now once cornered it will be our people are being targeted. Welcome to Kenya Anyone who knows whether the anti-money laundering law can be applied retrospectively? Or is it that the mere fact that we have such a law is enough for extradition? Kenyans are cornered. Mwau, Gadhaffi, Hague, Okemo, Gichuru. Who is next?

Like kwendo liked to write "when you find yourself in a hole, the first thing you do is stop diging" This man should go quiet/underground and face the music away from the public. PS I know this is easier said than done. You will know that you have arrived when money and time are not mutually exclusive "events" in you life!

Hey, maybe this is a defense the Ocampo 6 can use: I did it, but there's no law against it... Like say, Sang can claim he incited people on radio, but there isn't any law against doing so in Eldoret specifically. Or, UK can say he funded Mungiki, but there's no clause specifically against funding Mungiki anywhere in Kenyan law... Business opportunities are like buses,there's always another one coming

I was equally horified when i read his response. Doesnt he have lawyers who should be talking on his behalf ?
I thought that grey hair naturally comes with grey matter between the ears? Silly me !
Isnt it ironical that he's the same MPig that headed the Commission that cleared Charter House Bank of any wrongdoing, whilst the US has 10 kgs of dirt on the same bank.
Tough times for these two, the DPP may actually prove his mettle that was recently questioned by backing their deportation.

The head of the finance committee and Julie Gichuru's father-in-law now on the next flight to Jersey dressed in immaculate orange suits. All my friends are heathens, take it slow. Wait for them to ask you who you know. Please don't make any sudden moves.

Welcome to Kenya I do not hold brief for Okemo but I read the Nation report on the matter and nowhere did I see the phrase quoted by manpoa which seems to manpoa's own paraphrase.

The MP also wants the court to rule that allegations of misconduct in public office made by the Jersey authorities should not be tried there.
“As the alleged criminal conduct took place in Kenya, it has sole jurisdiction to try the alleged offender,” says his petition.
The MP faces 15 counts of money laundering and misconduct in public office allegedly committed between February 1, 1998 and June, 28 2002, which he denies.
“In the event the offences were committed, the State which lost money is Kenya. It is a fact that no funds which are owned by Jersey or its institutions were lost,” he says. Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

I must say i'm impressed by Tobiko if he has actually decided to roast these two.
I guess he has to prove that after all he is not all rotten to the core.
I hate to admit it though, but i guess some of our Judges must have been wishing they heard the case locally. They would mint serious cash from Gichuru.
