I agree with you 101%.
I am happy that Tafa Balogun was removed from office and jailed.

The thing is, unlike other Nigerian tribes, Yorubas are generally different when it comes to shielding a thief from their tribe, it is against their culture and that has been the case from time immemorial.... until recently when shamelessness seems to have become a badge of honor amongst all Nigerians.

We need out own country, bros. It's tiring sharing the same space with lunatics and criminals.

This girl no get sense, so she should be excused cos she is a woman thief. We find it appalling that a woman will have the temerity to steal such humongous kind of money.
I look forward to the time some nigerians will learn to read and comprehend, for now most of them can only read. She is not in any way saying she should be excused, what she's trying to say is the emphasize on 'she's a woman' is too much. Men can steal so can women, why laying emphasis on a gender. Whenever anybody steals, punish the person irrespective of the gender.

Yes, just like Sambo Dasuki and Nnamdi Kanu who are also women.

I am yet to see what this woman contributes to the public sphere asides storytelling. In terms of logic and critical thinking, she is seriously deficient.

Come on Chimamanda shout up that ur silly mouth. I respected you till you said this rubbish. She I riddicled this way because of the amount she stole. Please unfortunately for her she is the one that is in the spotlight.

Don't play the feminist card that is not right n it doesn't apply. She shamelessly went to steal then u expect us to be quiet because she is a woman.

ok, what are you trying to say
Ibori that went to prison is now a haemaphrodite

Help me ask her. I like her a lot but sometimes her opinions come across as irrelevant and unobjective. If she's saying this to please a certain audience, then it doesn't make sense. Most people reacted the way they did because of the enormity of the crime she committed and not because she is a woman. There are proofs that she embezzled and misappropriated public funds and she has to be accountable for it.

Feminism rubbish. Not a single sense from her submission. Diezani theft was a record one,hence, her 'victimization' should be proportional to the volume of the loot in her kitty. So we should celebrate her right?
#Iskanchi
Exactly! Diezani's victimization is very directly proportional to the magnitude of her loot �

I beg to disagree with this your position madam "Feminist". Did Diezzani Embezzled our money? Yes! Is she a Thief? Yes. Dasuki is also facing his own presently, even worst than hers. What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.

cheesy LOL

I have to read her speech again and what comes to my mind is if she or her type becomes the president of this country (not that I am envying), all men (whether good/bad) are in trouble. Her stance will make most ladies become arrogant, rude and possessive to the extent that cockroach would be seen to have more value than men.

You talk out of wisdom based on a personal experience with some feminists. On point bro

You're the deficit one in logical and critical thinking.

She didn't say Diezani should've been exonerated from the theft she was alleged to have committed but the notion that because "She's a woman" then more was expected of her. A man could steal but women can't. Both should be treated equally when found guilty of any crime instead of shaming the woman because she's a woman.


Tell me how women were not treated equally.


Dora Akunyili did well and was praised.
Madueke allegedly stole was vilified.


Dasuki allegedly stole, still in detention
Shiite Leader still in detention allegedly harassed.

I want to know where Women were allegedly not treated fairly when accused.


Ibori was more harassed than Madueke even as a Governor.

There was never a reference to her gender but her loot.
Chimanda is the one bringing a gender dimension to it.

A thief is a thief no matter the gender, tribe or religion. My issue in Diezanni's case is that govt keep pilling accusations upon accusations come up with hard facts and extradite her to face Justice here in Nigeria and if found guilty she goes to jail and face the music.

I am not surprised the drama of accusations and counter accusations on her matter, let's I forget this is Naija where some animals are more equal than the other. The last time I checked her husband was an ex military head and you know when espirit de corps matters shit happens.

Back in the days the used to tell us during job orientations that children from poor homes are prone to stealing so as control people they must be monitored but this womans case defiles all known theories on criminology. For a woman who was born with a silver spoon, ex first lady to a military head of state, former executive director in an oil company, good heaven's she has seen it all so why steal like that like there's no tomorrow.
This must be wickedness to self and nation or she is demon possessed.
For a woman to steal with total determination to wreck the nation after she is gone beats my imagination.

That was the answer to your question.

If you have read the article and you saw my comment, you wouldn't have asked that question to begin with. Next time, please take your time and read.

No one is criticising the treatment that is being meted to Diezani however you don't suppose we stand by and watch fo.ols question women and their ability to lead because of Diezani.
