Any adherents of any of the great religions would really vote a president who says,'Stealing is not corruption'.


Christians,Muslims,others,please have your say.

Will you thumbprint for a man who trivializes stealing?

Simply put, this is embezzlement. Embezzlement is a form of corruption and more precisely can be described as the "misappropriation of funds".


In "OUR" context, embezzlement equates to sabotage & subversion against the Nation State. This should be a treasonable offence. The perpetrators are adding value to other economies and currencies instead of adding more value to our economy, infrastructural development, stabilizing our currency and securing the prosperity of current and future generations.


These perpetrators are "Enemies of the State" and citizenry. If citizens were to attend these political ralies and physically turn their backs on these Politicians in sync whilst giving speeches, this would show disapproval and rejection.


It's a matter of Ethics, and the moral compass seems to lean towards the view that majority of Nigerians (occupying the centre ground of politics) have no shame!

Could the statement,'Stealing is not corruption' be a truism?

What's the justification?
Does the Holy Bible support it?
What does the Holy Quran say?
Do our cultural values and traditional religions have a say in this?

The length of the list up there looks like the beginning of the destruction of Nigeria.

Developed countries like China abhor stealing(or corruption?) as a cancer. Even with all the monies in their economy.
Can't we do better here?

When will people learn to explicitly separate the church (religion) from the state, and stop appealing to the mind of assymetrically informed people, which will definitely lead to adverse selection.

Your decision to not steal or be corrupt, first should stem from you moral values you hold dear as a person, and not because your religion says it is wrong.
