A former director of the Kenyan anti -
corruption agency, Prof . Patrick Lumumba , on
Tuesday , said the reason why corruption still
thrived in the country was because the people
were not yet tired of the practice .
He said in a society such as Nigeria where
people still celebrated those that fraudulently
enriched themselves , corruption would
continue to thrive .
Speaking at the opening session of the 49 th
annual conference of the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of Nigeria , he said the day
Nigerians would become tired of corrupt
practices , the actions that would follow would
put an end to graft .
He said , “ The task of nation building is a
collective responsibility . If you are an
accountant , you have to do your work by
ensuring that the right records are kept and
that the truth is told.
“ Corruption is a crime against humanity .
Experiences have demonstrated that if a people
in a country are sufficiently fed up , they will
rise up . In Romanian , we saw that the people
themselves were dissatisfied with the conduct
of their party officials and they changed the
attitude of the leadership.
“ Sometimes , I think Nigerians and many
Africans are not fed up . Because the day we are
fed up , things will begin to change . ”

Prof is very right.

Loch Otieno should face Kenya and allow Nigeria because the country Niger is doomed and doomed beyond recognition.

"...He said in a society such as Nigeria where

Very good observation. Some Nigerians rather than join in the fight against corrupt people they rather fight the corruption fighter. A good example in the OP, Johnnyessence. Nonsense to essence

Nigerians dont feel like they own nigeria

There is no national feeling ...everyone is like my yoruba nation ,my igbo nation ....

This country is a failed projects ...lets divide peacefully or it would end in war

You that is the number one corruption supporter.
You claimed you had evidences to help Fayose during the election case in court but you were nowhere to be found when the real day came.
You supported Saraki and co, people who turned their states to their personal properties for long and you claim to fight corruption? SMH


Whoever support any of these Nigerian politicians cannot be said to be different from them.
Even Buhari is corrupt to the core.
