Accursednation: Between Badagry7 And Ibori by Lordsocrates: 8:49pm On Feb 05, 2017
Accursed Nation : REACTION TO BADAGRY_7 and JAMES IBORI

Ibori after confessing to stealing approximately #78 billion from the coffers of Delta state was received with lots of celebration and fanfare right from the airport down to his house.
It was a very shameful and an embarrassing moment to be a south southerner and a Nigerian., considering how we celebrate the very people causing our impoverishment and suffering.. It was one of the worst days to tell someone you are a Nigerian.
Normally thieves are punished to deter others from stealing, back then when there was no gun and No prison, Society controlled crime by Ostracising the Criminal, he was banned from village meetings, from Social settings, etc. This move was geared at instilling the fear of having to suffer the same fate on others. Thereby putting them in line, with no need for guns and prisons.
When one considers that $250million can set up 120,000 fully functional clothe making factories in the state, $250,million can replicate 3 of the Ibom International Stadium valued at$76million each, and $250million can build up 2 of the state of the Art Ibom Specialist Hospital. And then change will be enough to pay all the workers for a long time.
However, Ibori after pocketting all that money that could have created "state of the art" facilities and generated employments both directly and indirectly, for the thousands of unemployed graduates roaming the creeks and bombing everywhere, came back home and instead of having to hide in shame and regret for his crime, he returned home to a Heroes welcome...
My chagrin here is that not so long ago, a little boy between 10and 12, was alleged to have stolen a loaf of bread some say garri some say phone..etc. All that matters is that what the boy, if ever it amounted to 7,800, would never have been up to 78,000, would never been close to 780,000, would never have been close to 7,800 000, not to talk of 78,000 000 000 000.
But the boy was brutalised beaten, stoned, spat at, and thennnnn necklaced with a tire. Choked with the fuel fumes he was bath with, while he scream his longs and his hearts out, as he saw flames on him, as he. Screamed and prayed, and hoped for help that never came, as he suffered the most painful death known to man.

He was a minor who didn't even deserve to be imprisoned, even when he killed someone, however here was he, sentenced to the worst form of death, for stealing something not worth #7_800 whereas James Ibori an adult after confessing to having stolen #78_000,000,000,000 was given a heroes homecoming, which our victorious Super Falcons were not privileged to get.
His homecoming could be likened to that given to Mandela, and other freedom fighters after being released from long detention.
Why then will I not sell of my state or country knowing that a celebration like this awaights me, whenever I am done with the foreign forces coming to help my shamelessl people
Mandella, Fella, and other freedom fighters must all be turning in their graves now, to discover that the Heroes welcome the used to get are now being accorded to Self confessed Criminals and treasury looter. Sorry Madiba, the Blackman you fought for instead of progressing, is developing backward,
in mind,
character,
conduct.
And......
