This Guy Dindos - Fifa...

Fifa crisis: Defiant Jack Warner says 'Mandela and Gandhi made jail too' - BBC News

Quote:

The former vice president of Fifa is facing extradition to the US after his arrest on corruption charges. But the man alleged to be at the heart of global football's biggest scandal remains defiant.
Jack Warner is not short on self-confidence.
Hours after his release on bail from a Trinidad jail cell, the former Fifa executive-turned-politician, is standing under a gazebo addressing a rally of around 200 supporters from his Independent Liberal Party.
Dressed in a lime green party uniform and wearing a cap, he's beaming - almost bragging - about his short time behind bars.
"Nelson Mandela made jail. Gandhi made jail. Castro made jail. So who's Jack Warner?"

More likely he is just saying that even some "good" people went to jail.
Not that he is comparing himself to them in terms of how good they all are :)

Not saying anything positive about the guy, just speaking in general about that phrase.
When people use phrases like that that does not mean they are comparing themselves (that they are as great as those etc) to those people. That merely means he tries to imply that he is "good" and states that even "good" people went to jail by naming the most known examples. Nothing to do with claiming that he is as good as those or comparing his level of "goodness" to those 2.
