Why Are The Leading Candidates For 2019 Elections All Corrupt ? by Nobody: 6:30am On Oct 12, 2017
I weep for Nigeria,when I see the candidates been mentioned for the 2019 election. I see Nigeria remaining in the same primitive development stage for the next decade.If we don't get a visionary candidate from the private sector.
A list of the leading candidates and their corruption cases:
Buhari:Covers up for his cabal of unrepentant thieves like Buratai,Dambazau,Kyari,Amaechi,Tinubu,Babachir Lawal,Baru etc

Atiku Abubakar: Indicted by United States Senate
Offshore Wire Transfers. Jennifer Douglas, a U.S. citizen and the fourth wife of Atiku Abubakar, former Vice President and former presidential candidate in Nigeria, helped her husband bring more than $40 million in suspect funds into the United States from 2000 to 2008, through wire transfers from offshore corporations. The Securities and Exchange Commission has alleged in a 2008 civil complaint that Ms. Douglas received $2.8 million in bribe payments from a German conglomerate, Siemens AG, which has acknowledged making the payments.

So long as the system that ushers in our so called leaders into power is corrupt, don't expect a saint.
Even when a saint tries, it will be very very difficult for him/her to succeed.

It's like trying to put a new wine into an old wine.

The system is developed in way that Nigeria has no hope of ever getting a good leader,sad.

No candidate yet. Thinking of Tambuwal or Babangida Aliyu for a northerner. Osinbajo for a westerner, Peter Ibo for the south east and Donald Duke for the south south

Why no visionaries though.Babagandia Aliyu has a pending corruption case. What did he do for Niger State,does it look like Dubai?

I get angered when you throw up this names. What did they achieve?

Donald Duke is no different, he's just smarter than the rest. Babagida Aliu is too lazy to be a President, someone who could not make any meaningful inpact in his state. Osinbajo is suspicious to me, anyone close to Tinubu is suspicious to me.

God arranged The World "a System for DEMAND & SUPPLY" and made Nigeria, a Professional Tout in The System".
Capitalism means Corruption, Looting and Toutism in Nigerians. Capitalism produces Bill Gates and Trump in the U.S. Capitalism(Corruption in Nigerians) produces Atiku, Diezani, Abacha etc, etc.
Limit F.G to FMT(Foreign Affairs, Military and Treaties).
Let the State Governments govern their Internal Security, Procurements, Productivities, Costs, Incomes, Profits and their Distributions.
Based on this Uniform autonomous system, the ensuring healthy Competition arising, will sufficiently pull off Corruption, Looting and Toutism, and make them unfashionable in Nigeria.

Dangote is not corrupt. He will be like Trump and jeulously in God protect The Integrity of Nigeria.
Iweala is not corrupt. She is experienced. She will rule like late Golder Maeir of Israel.
Osinbajo is very educated and experienced now on Nigeria and international matters.
Saraki is an Aristocrat, Educated, not a Tout, young and experienced in all round governance and international relations.
Ditto for Makarfi.
Ditto for Ekweremadu. He is an astute legislator like Makarfi and Saraki.

Regardless of whether they are corrupt or not, why does it have to always be old recycled politicians? why can't simply have an entirely new hands on deck? my heart is embittered whenever I see these old faces resurfacing ahead of 2019. May God bless us with a good one this time.

Is he redeemable for saner climes?
He must have done that when like all of us, he understood Capitalism to mean Corruption, Looting and Toutism.
