What Is The Problem With Our "selected" Government Officials?

Why is it that a good number of people in high government positions in Nigeria and Abroad go about in the media and various conferences painting the name of the country bad.This is a worrisome development which needs to be addressed.For instance,I read an article on the presentation of the Nigerian Ambassador/High commissioner in India on a world press conference{back home in Naija} during the visit of Indian Prime minister,Dr. Manmohan Singh to Nigeria where he categorically stated that Nigerians in India do not want to be involved in any meaningful thing contrary to what is true, this is a man who has spent couple of days in the office before the visit of the Prime minister.Are they telling the whole world that those of them in "high" places are "clean" while those they are ruling
are "unclean"? Abeg make una warn them ooooooooo!!!!!!
