More sad news about corruption in Nigeria




Nigerians who are plain tired of the Yar’Adua regime’s claims to living out the rule of law found reason last Thursday to be nauseated. A Federal High Court in Enugu convicted former Governor Lucky Igbinedion of Edo State on a one-count charge of corruption. His punishment? To pay a fine of N3.6 million. That’s not even a slap on the wrist; it’s a pat on the back – or even a lover’s hum in the ear!


Dear friends,

It seems everywhere we look politicians, in almost every city, hamlet, and country, around the world, are being exposed as crooks. On the link below, Okey Ndibe reveals more of the corruption that must be stamped out in order for the people of Nigeria to be able to start working for that country's and, in fact, the continent's progress. Moreover, African people in the Diaspora should pay attention to this, because we do have a stake in Africa's rebirth.

One Love,

G. Djata Bumpus
