In
a country where the law is no respecter of person, It is hard to get
away with any kind of crime irrespective of your status in the
society.
And
so 38-year-old Fugees frontwoman Lauryn Hill checked into
the Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Connecticut on
Monday to begin her three
month sentence for tax evasion.
Actor Wesley
snipes was just released from jail after serving nearly two years for the same offense. He is presently serving the remainder in
house arrest in New York.
It's
a shame Nigeria isn't so. Here thieve are given political positions
and protected by the law.
Dont be so quick to jump on the bandwagon for America, I am not sure about Wesley Snipes, but I would not classify Lauryn as a thief or put her in the same category as the crooked political figures in Nigeria.
