Must Read: MY CORRUPT FREE NIGERIA BY Moses Adeyemi
Add BBN on 2BAFB965
Nigeria in some quarters have been said to be a corrupt country and this has sticked with the country for a very long time, but whether we like it or not, we can have a corrupt free Nigeria.
Political corruption has been a persistent phenomenon that pervades the Nigeria nation, for a while now there have been cases of consistent misuse of resources for personal enrichment, our oil and gas as also caused so many issues because it is the major cause of corrupt practice in Nigeria.
Nigerians are stuck in ignorance and poverty, no good roads, no good house, we have lost our social amenities, looting and vandalizing of public money have been the other of the day and it is a crime that is punishable under the law.
As a matter of fact, so many of our leaders are thieves and corrupt, we always see them quarelling or using the media through newspaper, television and radio station to abuse or throw punch at each other, but the simple truth is when they sit down and share our money, nobody knowns, there they greet each other. I do wonder why they are fighting in public but i have come to realize it is because of the wealth of the nation and the fact that we have petroleum. My question is without the fund coming from this petroleum stuff or without allocation coming from federal government , what can this politicians offer? Wealthy elite have been influenced by corruption and they have use this to gain power and protect there own personal interest.
I have also come to realize that tribalism is seriously having it root in our dear country and with these, we will continue to have serious fight, from one ethnic group to another. Big politicians now want people from there ethnic group to head parastatals and they get return from them, from my own point of view there is no single Nigeria leader that is not corrupt, just that the level of corruption defer from each other.
Every blessed day billions of Nigeria live there day from hand to mouth, some are not even sure of what they will eat the next day, while we still have people that eat one time daily and the one square meal am talking about might be garri or just bread. We still have people sleeping under bridge, that shows the extent people lack social amenities. Our leaders only enjoy our wealth with there families and friends.
To have a corrupt free Nigeria, we need people that are not greedy, we need people that have the right attitude, we seriously need to go back to the drawing board , to write out what we want as objectives and i must say this moral education is very important.
Enough of all these useless campaigns we have all around, lets stop fooling each other. I have choose not to be deceived again, because any day , anytime the people in government will always will bring in people they know or that have helped them one way or the other , there has never been room for fresh brains. can there be a Nigeria , where we will be free of corruption ? yes of course and that can only be achieved if common stealing is stopped.
Nigeria government need to come out clean and be straight with Nigerians on its record in fighting corruption.
The young leaders hope for the future is slim and there is a need to fight and eradicate corruption on time before it ruins our lives.
