Brickbat: A Mockery of Justice

A Nigerian court has sentenced Mubarak Isa Muhammed and Muhammed Bula to 20 lashes each, fined them $25 each, and ordered them to clean the court building for 30 days after they pleaded guilty to mocking a government official. The duo made a TikTok video making fun of Abdullahi Ganduje, governor of the state of Kano, for alleged corruption and sleeping on the job.

A true artist would release a Tiktok video mocking Fist for falling asleep on the job.
I get paid over 190$ per hour working from home with 2 kids at home. I never thought I’d be able to do it but my best friend earns over 10k a month doing this and she convinced me to try. The potential with this is endless. Heres what I’ve been doing..

A glitch in the matrix.
There is no humor in Islam.
Religion of peace, or religion of humor. You can only pick one.
History suggests you can have neither.

Seriously, guys. Don't give the Democrats any ideas.
Right; I already commit at least 3 felonies before I even leave home in the morning.
And those are just the ones that I know of.
We just suspend people from school and fire them from their jobs if they say the wrong thing: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11438601/Student-suspended-complaining-trans-student-used-girls-locker-room-speaks-out.html
Maybe flogging is coming next.
Forced transitions.
Maybe Kirkland was right and we’re all gonna have ladydick shoved down our throats. For progress.
Reading the article, it sounds like that will be somewhere after the star chamber struggle sessions and forced confessions, but before the carrying out of any/all death threats and the maybe/maybe not, “let’s-just-keep-this-under-our-hats” post-mortem absolution.
Where does the 2 minutes hate come in? Is that before or after the struggle sessions?
A spanking and house-keeping chores? Good thing they didn't walk around inside the Nigerian capitol uninvited.
*sproing!*
That was the sound of every American government official getting a jealousy boner.
Maybe while they are doing the cleaning, they can install some listening devices!
I know it's a ridiculous prosecution.
...but come on, you KNOW the laws and rules where you live. Don't post stupid shit on social media. For God's sake, you idiots, there is nothing you'll put on TikTok that is worth a fraction of a second of inconvenience for you.
Right on! They knew what they were getting into when they were born in an authoritarian third world shit hole like Nigeria!
If you know your government is really sensitive about you mocking them and you are in the country...keep your head low and get the f out. The odds of things going your way are exceedingly slow.
THEN mock them.
Which neighboring nation are they Ghana flee to?
Do they have Togo west?
Obviously they are seditious purveyors of misinformation, possibly even potential insurrectionists and terrorists. The Biden Administration and the Democratic Party must be green with envy at Nigerian justice
truth is no defense in Nigeria?
And yet you still don't give a shit about the ongoing political prisoners right here still penalized for illegal parading.
nope. #bringbackourMuhammeds
