Diezani, PDP And The Price Of Impunity by umoetteumoh: 9:04am On Nov 19, 2015
The raid on a luxury home in London and detention of Diezani Alison-Madueke, Nigerian’s ex-minister of Petroleum and one of the oil amazons and influencers in Jonathan’s administration on October 2, 2015 by London Police on money laundering and corruption charges is a practical and undeniable exposure on the level of criminality and corruption perpetrated against Nigerians by some of the public office holders in the last PDP led government.
Most startling to Nigerians is not merely the level and amount of resources wasted and stolen, but more despicable and impulsive is the level of impunity and manner at which majority of the public office holders in the Jonathan administration carried out such indecency and anomalies against their country and her citizens.
The level of impunity, carelessness, free looting of national treasury, misappropriation of public funds, institutional decay, lack of respect and value for Nigerians, arrogantly and publicly displayed by the top guns of the last PDP led administration cannot be over emphasized.
It is not propaganda that the ongoing money laundering and corruption charges against the Diezani in London will be a mere tip of an iceberg compared to the damage done to this country and her citizens in the last 8 years.
It is worthy of note that the deep injury inflicted on the Nigeria socio-economic and political system, no doubt requires a timely application of advanced, reliable and appropriate medication. The hostile and irresponsible platforms instituted by the past regimes need to be systematically dismantled in all ramifications to give way for the nation’s genuine movement to greatness.
The emergence of the new sheriff and reformed democrat (Muhammadu Buhari) as the newly democratically elected president of Nigeria gave a huge sigh of relief and optimism to well meaning and teeming Nigerians, shows of God’s grace and march towards a new dawn. It was also greeted with fear, applaud and excitement by various categories of individuals/ persons and groups.
As the corrupt past and present public office holders are gripped with fear of consequences of their indecent and corrupt practices, applaud were accorded to the foot soldiers and heroes of change while excitement befell majority of Nigerians who have for long been praying and clamouring for positive change that will usher in pragmatic and proactive measures on the war against the endemic diseases of corruption, insecurity/insurgency and unemployment.
Taking cognizance of the fact the new leader with commitment to the rule of law, capacity to weather the storm, some groups/persons, particularly the opposition PDP have become critical of Mr. president’s categorical and strong worded statement that the fight against corruption and indiscipline must get to a logical conclusion. The very modest president further stated that anyone found guilty of the dangerous and deadly disease (corruption) irrespective of the person’s status, social, religious or political affiliation will face the wrath of the law.
President Buhari went further to urge Nigerians not to exercise any fears, but rather people should fear the consequences of their action.
Without mincing words President Buhari has in no small measure shown commitment to the rule of law, transparency, purposefulness and simplicity in the handling of government affairs. His tenacity and zeal to wipe out corruption, strengthen the nation, revamp the economy, clean the huge rot his administration inherited as well as his diplomatic shuttles to reposition Nigeria’s image and values within the comity of nations are pointers to Buhari’s purposefulness which without contention deserves applaud, encouragement, and support.
The achievements so far recorded by this administration in power sector, anti-corruption, security and firm promises to wipe out Boko Haram/ insurgency by the end of the year has hugely rekindled the confidence and believes by international community on Nigeria’s ability and readiness to offer /provide conducive investment environment, secure and profitable international business relations.
