Stealing is a fraction of corruption - corruption encompasses stealing, bribery, nepotism, hooliganism, thugery, political killing, assassination and all evils that you can think of. I don't believe we can separate one from the other. 1 Like |

IdisuleOurOwn: When did NTA become a certificate awarding institution ? You and I know that governm sent agencies always dance to the tune of the ruling administration. They said that just to save their head from the vindictive old man , the same thing goes for the army. Till date nobody has seen the imaginary cert. Babaonechance is the only man I know of whose evidence of having a school cert lies solely on newspaper headlines. |

bettercreature: No no no, pleae do not twist this, what has just been uncovered are the areas of our legal system as tactically composed by the dirty military regime , It specifically notes that if I were to steal an item worth >1000 naira I am immediately liable to imprisonment of up to 7 years, however if I were to be employed in the public sector and I participated in fraudulent activity for personal gain for which the loss to state is not defined and therefore can be interpreted as infinite the maximum incarceration that can be prescribed by a judge is 2 years. These are the sections of our constitution and penal code which must be corrected immediately , I think it is high time Nigerian citizens make more demands we now have a president who is determined to listen |

Realtol: Exactly silly people who do not understand English would keep shouting stealing is not corruption, according to our constitution yes, but you know the way Nigeria his everything is always assways. Stealing is the element of corruption that involves coveting what is not yours. That is how the bible states it in several places. |

This criminal code act can never and will never re-write life and character as seen and known universally. When they want to downplay offenses they concoct some legal jargon so as to protect their thieving and corrupt selves. Now let me speak in a broader sense, Stealing only emanates from a corrupted personality and can never be separated one from the other. When you downplay corruption as a lesser offense than stealing when obviously there can be no stealing without corruption is not justifiable. This is one of the reasons why other countries make mockery of us as a nation. So a corrupt politician who deprives the people of their economic benefits and keeps it all to himself gets a minor sentence even when some of these people either die from starvation or stress or high blood pressure while a thief gets to die by hanging? Both the Criminal code and GEJ are in the same category......Clueless and Moronic 1 Like |

ShineuEye: They are very much same, your mind needs to be corrupted for you to internationally take for personal gain what is not yours - stealing , fraud What the prosecution would have to prove in court is the intent and with that the defendant must held liable. Another aspect is having knowledge of an activity and it's consequences and deciding not to attempt to stop it or report it to correct authorities. Code of professional ethics frowns on this concept you have put up |

piagetskinner: You need to understand this section of our criminal code needs to be changed, because in a situation where EFCC find a public servant guilty of corruption the maximum jaik time he can get is 2 years |

vimi: The constitution was wrong and in his stupidity he did not see any moral obligation to correct the error , but kept on furthering that decrepit error, furthering its reach by confidently giving stupid analogies in public discuss on public TV .

bettercreature:Corruption is the abuse of bestowed power or position to acquire a personal benefit. Corruption may include many activities including bribery and embezzlement. Government, or 'political', corruption occurs when an office-holder or other governmental employee acts in an official capacity for personal gain. |

neocortex: U can keep on deluding ur self. As I hv said earlier, I never went to school nor do I hv certificate, but I hv pass knowledge to people tru my practicals. I believe in practical. We hv many people wo hv certificate, yet they ar not better than those wo didn't hv. I doubt if u ar science/science student, if u do then, u will undastad Watin am talking about. Go to laboratories be it biology, chemistry or physics, u will c people wo don't hv certificate inventing different things. Ok, now since u ar clamoring about certificate, some of our army wo don't hv but ar in d war front battling wit Boko haram should b told to withdraw because they don't hv certificate. The certificate of a ' thing ' is ceremonial. Bill Gate never hv certificate wen he invent Micro soft word, same as Mark Zugaberg. Ar u not using their products? Refuse to use it because they don't hv certificate. U that hv 1, what hv u invented ? |

Ezemust: Ezemust abi na Ezedust You seem confused. Corruption is an all encompassing word of which stealing is a derivative. Stealing is a product of corruption and can never be severed from it. I am sure you probably stole as a kid as did many and even you at that time knew it was a vice which was why you tried not to get caught. Well corruption is also a vice and it breeds Stealing, covetousness, fraud, bribery, abuse, molestation, lies and the like. |

What many Pro GEJ people here do not understand is that you cannot begin to pamper what is wrong because a man said so. We owe a duty to a greater being who is God Almighty to see this whole issue through his eyes and not whatever GEJ or a criminal code postulated. If you are corrupt you are a thief and a liar and if you are a thief you are also a liar because both go hand in hand. You all need to quit trying to justify an obviously deliberate attempt by our politicians to protect their corrupt and thieving selves via what is found in the Criminal code. They sponsored and passed the Criminal code bill and it is simply for their own selfish gain. PERIOD! |
