        The corruption of African countries is the result of too many of us not giving a damn. We all own that corruption.

        This young man has to get a Disciplinary Code of life sentence so that others ought to learn and respect the sweats of their tax payers, whom are the poorest of the Equatorial Guineans. Authorities and rich people don't pay taxes, only the System bearers do most often.

        The youth of Africa will Afro-idealistically be proud when they hear and see that this jentleman who enriched himself to the detriment of millions of black women who constantly pay undefined taxes in their local markets and streets of Malebo, face life immurement , as a lesson

        Maybe the president of Equatorial Guinea will impose sanctions against Brazil or even worse, threaten to invade...
