A court in Senegal has sentenced the son of former President Abdoulaye Wade to six years in prison for corruption.

Karim Wade was also fined $230m (£150m) for illegal enrichment during his father's 12-year rule.

He was chosen at the weekend as the presidential candidate of the main opposition party, the PDS.
President Macky Sall warned last week that his government would not tolerate any attempt to destabilise Senegal after the court gave its verdict.
Mr Sall defeated Abdoulaye Wade in fiercely contested elections in 2012.
Karim Wade was accused of illegally amassing about $1.4bn, but was cleared of some of the charges by a special anti-corruption court in the capital, Dakar.
He has been in detention since April 2013.
Judge Henri Gregoire Diop said Wade had hidden away funds in offshore companies in the British Virgin Islands and Panama, Reuters news agency reports.
"The facts before us constitute illicit enrichment by Karim Wade," the judge is quoted as saying.
Opposition supporters inside the courtroom shouted in protest, denouncing the verdict as "shameful".
Wade's lawyer Mohamed Seydou Diagne said he would appeal against the verdict.

The anti-corruption court did not have jurisdiction over the case and it was politically motivated, he said.

Wade was a senior minister in his father's government, and was in charge of major infrastructure and energy projects.

His large portfolio led to him being dubbed "the minister of the earth and the sky".

His arrest came after the new government vowed to tackle corruption.

Was he a banking agent? Was he operating inside the banks?
Where was the banking staff and security?
I suspect he has insiders to help him. Otherwise it sounds strange and ridiculous.

Most Ghanaians are so gullible that,this news is nothing strange.This trick hapens not only in Kumasi,it happens in Accra and in most parts of the Country.I wonder what some Ghanaians do with their brains God gave them.But why should anybody be surprised,a Nation where a party like the NDC has ruled for almost 30yrs including PNDC tells you the people we are dealing with.We believe any lies people tell us,because our brains are on crush control.

And a security man applying 'carefully calibrated' slaps to the guys face,and sensed right away that something was not amiss! Typical 'Goro Boys',who lurk around the offices of public institutions,are not neatly attired to blend in with the office staff,as this conman,Kwaku Badu, was!
His caper,was of the 'behind-the counter' variety.

I can't imagine myself handing over my money to an unknown person. Only a woman will do that. Or maybe a dead goat northerner.

You seem to imply, by your comment, that women are unintelligent and stupid. Sorry, sir, but for all you know no woman will write such a thing about you.
