'Passingshot' what's your take on this
Did you even read the article? As far I'm concerned the article was about a corruption survey in South Africa and the article even said Nigeria and Ghana are getting worse! What is the euphoria all about?

I knew APC goons is going to shop on this...

South Africa dey learn when it comes to corruption in nigeria..

Do south African Police collect 20rand from bus drivers

Do SA phone shops sell soaps as phone.

Do SA president tour the world looking for banks that could hide his money..




What concerns APC in this news report?

Some of you are just either dumb or just silly!!!

You never believe anything can come out of your country? Or that other countries have their short comings too?

Stop dreaming, Nigeria is getting better.

Hopefully you will witness when better gets to best.

Nigeria was never classified as the most corrupt country. Haven't you heard of Bangladesh, south sudan...

People like you will always get into trouble by not minding their business. What has my comment got to do with not seeing anything good in Nigeria?

Hold your Estate managers responsible for that.

You have a right to electricity supply without having to go and pay #10m to some Phcn Official.


Hope you guys were not levied for the #10m?
If so, then u guys have been scammed !!!!!!!


Send a petition to National Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC)

Know and Fight for your right!!!

Distribution Companies have no basis to collect any tarrif from customers except it's for your consumption or for meter acquisition (which is even to be refunded back to you in 3 months after purchase.... That's for the digital meters.)

South Africa Knocks Nigeria off its Perch as “Most Corrupt” African Country

South Africa is now believed to be the most corrupt country on the continent, according to a new survey.

By Alexis Haden
The latest report by Transparency International sees South Africa top the list of countries where citizens believe the problem has got worse in the last year.

Over 80% of South Africans who were interviewed thought that corruption had increased over the last year. Ghana and Nigeria are some of the other worst-affected nations.

79% of South Africans surveyed also believe that not enough is being done to curb corruption. On the continent‚ the majority of Africans (58%) say that corruption has increased over the past year.

If there is one shining light to the survey it’s that 56% of South Africans surveyed believe that ordinary people can make a difference in the fight against corruption.

The survey found that 25% of respondents in SA believe that the most effective way for ordinary citizens to combat corruption is by reporting their experiences‚ followed by a further 22% who identified the refusal to pay bribes as an effective means to fight corruption.

With 43‚143 respondents, across 28 countries surveyed, people feel the police, business executives, government officials and the courts were all perceived as corrupt, with 75 million people estimated to have paid a bribe in the past year, AFP reports.

Between JZ pouring money into his Nkandla digs, Prasa’s dodgy trainsand countless of other scandals, South Africans aren’t exactly stoked about the state of affairs.

“People are outraged, they see this huge spending as part of government corruption,” David Lewis, director of Corruption Watch, a local anti-graft organisation, told AFP.

“Corruption creates and increases poverty and exclusion,” Transparency International head Jose Ugaz said in a statement.

The research shows that corruption has increased in South Africa as well as in Ghana and Nigeria. There is no place in the article where it is stated that Nigeria is now less corrupt.

My take:

SA overtaking Nigeria as the most corrupt country in Africa may be due to either of two factors or a combination of both viz - 1. That SA has gotten worse in her fight against corruption without Nigeria necessarily doing better. 2. That Nigeria has increased her effort,in fighting corruption while SA has not done much within the same period.

Whichever way, I think Nigeria is on the right path with PMB in the driver seat.

cheesy cheesy cheesy I can only lmao hard at this. Nigeria proud themselves of being the most intelligent country in Africa but are unable to comprehend a simple article?

This is the craziest thing ever!

Now, if anyone has read the article thoroughly its :

1) A report on what citizens perceive

2) It shows the intolerance of corruption by South Africa as being at most high than fellow Africans ( Which is a great thing)

3) No actual audit of corruption cases were done but citizens were surveyed to give opinion

What this article mean is:

1) More South Africans are vigilant and not complacent about corruption than their African counterparts

2) If you look at the most stated corruption case by South Africans its the Nkandla-gate which is $20 million vs Nigeria's latest Army gate @ $2.1 billion dollars.

Nigerians should more angrier but maybe have gotten used to corruption than their South African counterparts.

3) Imagine $2 Billion being lost to corruption in SA, their citizens would lynch their government reps while Nigeria's are sympathetic to theirs.


Conclussion : The article as an opinion of citizens about corruption and a barometer of corruption tolerance. FULL STOP!

P/S : NIGERIANS VERY QUICK TO CELEBRATE RUBBISH! THAT IS THE SAD PART OF THIS THREAD! undecided

Dont you guys understand english? The article said Ghana and Nigeria are some of the worst affected but Nigeria was the overall worst before south Africa overtook us. This means, we are no longer the most corrupt but we have not improved much also.

Hmmmm, are they sure?
Some Nigerians just hoarded and sold subsidized fuel to fellow Nigerians at N400 per litres and the regulating bodies looked away. That to me is the Height of corruption at various levels.
where were you when they gave out numbers to call if such ever happen? oh... i bet you were blind.
