Stated by the ICPC: "The Independent Corrupt Practices and Related offences Commission disclosed Wednesday that 24 state governors have been investigated and found to be neck deep in corruption.
"Chairman of the Commission, Justice Emmanuel Olayinka Ayoola, who made the disclosure during his inaugural press briefing in Abuja did not, however, name the affected governors, but hinted that investigation had been launched into the controversial National Rural Electrification Board’s project in Enugu. http://www.sunnewsonline.com/webpages/news/national/2006/mar/02/national%20-2-03-2006-002.htm |

I'm convinced that more than 90% of our Nigerian governors are corrupted. It's even a bigger corruption when the nation hides information from it's own people.

I expect most Governors are for third term. I've seen a couple repeating what the general public want to hear and telling the Federal Government to step down in 2007. But how many of them have actually disapproved of amending the constitution to include a third term?

They can't do that because the governors are immune under the current constitution.

Are u kidding me? If so then they might as well immune hard core criminals but I frankly don't understand that type of government. It's so unfortunate that our leaders don't really care about their people. |

I doubt that there is a single governor in Nigeria who is not corrupt. Even the people investigating them are corrupt.  The head itself is corrupt. Who's the head? Shh! I didn't say a thing. |

They are playing politics on their people. I bet whomever they are arresting now are those that didn't or wouldn't vote for the third term crap so they are trying to gather and luck them up where their voices won't be heard.
Again I'm sure more than 90% of our governors are corrupted so making couple of arrests ain't enough. They might as well luck them all up but noooooooooo! because then no one will vote or rather their won't be great support soooooooo they will just get ride of those that will spoil their party before it's too late therefore they come up with stupid reason or whatever just to shut them up.

Both of these Governors jumped bail in a foreign country. Why do you think Governors no longer travel out of the country? |

AHHHHH!!! 24 state governors only ? Thats not correct! They are all corrupt !!!!!!!!!! They have been stealing and looting govt money and will continue to steal and loot govt money with reckless abandon unless the immunity granted to these thieves who call themselves governors is completly removed so that they can be tried and sent to jail if found guilty . Nigeria has been rated as the worlds most corrupt country by america and the rest of the western world but they still allow corrupt governors to continue to dump billions of stolen dollas in these foreign banks! THAT SHOULD STOP! The cases of 2 nigerian state governors arrested in london should serve as deterrent to other stealing governors!

If they can prosecute those 24 at least there will be sanity during the next political administration.

Big laugh. That new governor has been eating it but just that he's yet to eat the big bite. |
