Nairaland Forum

I have been wondering about this for a while. We Nigerians have this perception about our leaders, that they are corrupt and selfish, but i feel there should be at least some of them who are clean or righteous. I know according to recent statistics, an average Nigerian is label "corrupt", also i am aware that Nigeria ranks among the most corrupt nations in the world. But i still believe that there are few Nigerians who are not corrupt, some Governors, ministers, President, senators, honourables, commissioners, Head of parastatals/agencies, DGs or even LG chairmen or counselors who may not be corrupt.

Fellow Nairanders, I want to know your opinion on this!

Wel out 100%,99%are corrupt.

Abdul Adam56: Wel out 100%,99%are corrupt.

uhmmm, are u sure about that?

Some are robbing the piggy-bank, others are driving the getaway cars!

YES! NO EXCEPTIONS!

ALL WITH NO EXEMPTION.

Callotti: Some are robbing the piggy-bank, others are driving the getaway cars!

YES! NO EXCEPTIONS!

But i still believe that there are some out there who are clean, though i dont have statistics for that. It will be a fallacy if we conclude that ALL are corrupt.

I cant say all Nigerian leaders are corrupt. But if you're not corrupt,you cant be a Nigerian leader. So do the maths. Q.E.D

Infact yes, if EFCC, Police, ICPC, NSCDC are doing their job well we would have more prisioners in the class of Nigerian LOOTdERs than petty theives and victims of circumstances that litter our prisons.

Abdul Adam56: Wel out 100%,99%are corrupt.

sorry dey 99.9% corrupt

@ poster
I will agreed with you, we have some who are not corrupt cos in all not every body will go to hell.

Corruption............hmmmmm

=>as number one citizen in Nigeria
=>as a local govnt. in each state in Nigeria
=> as 37th state in Nigeria
=>as a nation inside Nigeria continent
=>as a continent inside Nigeria World map
=>as a planent inside Nigeria universe
=>as a giant star inside Nigeria galaxy
=>corruption!!!........ is every where in Niger Area known as Nigeria

Unfortunately, a randomly selected Nigeria leader is a reflection of an average nigerian.

That is why I will vote 4 Buhari in 2015 cos he's d only candidate dat has no record of Coruption obasonjo try nd even GEJ try 2 get any link of his corrupt activities but dey cnt find anyting on him dat show dat man is clean as water he's my herom

Nop!!Not all Nigeria leaders are corrupt.bt all corrupt leaders are from Nigeria. ...

Although many of them are corrupt but you can stil find some e.g Gen.Buhar who are nt corrupt....

100% corrupt.

Oui ils sont tout des politiciens corrompus et cupides.

All of them are corrupt. The difference is dat they fall in two categories. Category A: Corrupt politicians who hav d interest of masses @ heart. Category B: Corrupt politicians dat are too selfish & don't care wat happen to those @ d grassroot nor wat becomes of d nation via there corrupt practices. Before u prove me wrong, simply define corruption & u'll see a reason to agree with me.

All Nigerian Leaders are corrupt. Those we consider not corrupt are the less desperate ones.

Even if you do not want to join them - they will either implicate you with something Or they will fight you (they will will not trust you to be around them).

LastWord: Nigerian Politician in power do no like having honest people around them (except they are using you - which means you are corrupt too).

99% are corrupt while the 1% that are not corrupt are intimidated by the 99% powerful corrupt cabals

Mallam sanusi, governor of centra bank seems not corrupt.
