Has Nigeria Ever Produced A Politician That Was Not Fantastically Corrupt? by Nobody: 4:52am On Oct 23, 2019
Since Nigeria got independence in 1960, $582 billion dollars has been looted by it's fantastically corrupt politicians- who are world renown for turning the country to the corruption and poverty capital of the world. Is there a single politician that has served without blemish that did not become a billionaire after office with bullion vans,private jets,luxury cars and real estate in Maitama,Garki,Banana Island,Ikoyi,VGC,Victoria Island etc and outside the country.

corrupt? no
fantastically corrupt? yes.
Personally I think the most less corrupt presidents will be Yar'Adua and PMB, The most corrupt is that man from Ogun state state, and the one from Kano state. I won't say name before someone says I am insulting OBJ and Abacha
The most clueless who keep shut while others made away with billions is that man from Otueke, though I do not think he is a thief but he breed thieves
But none is fantastically corrupt, just corrupt
I am talking about our presidents

If its Governors, there are a lot of corrupt gov but seriake Dickson from Bayelsa sate takes the crown.

Yes we have. The likes of Alex Ekwueme and Melford Okilo were not in any way linked with corruption.

How? When Nigerians love electing the most corrupt of individuals.

In fact, if you are not corrupt, Nigerians won’t elect you.

Then the same Nigerians would turn around to complain about bad roads, no light, bla bla bla

Nigerians, lovers of suffering and smiling. They love the smell of poo from their open gutters on every street.

Most corrupt is Buhari but the mystery is how he is able to hide his loot from the public.

Less corrupt Nigerian leaders: Obafemi Awolowo, Umaru Musa Ya'radua, Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe. GEJ isn't corrupt but he's weak so, his subordinates used his weakness to loot the treasury

Most Corrupts: Abacha, Mohammadu Buhari, IBB. Buahari is fantastically corrupt but he's an excellent pretender who's actually worst

The day that Kenneth Kaunda stepped down as President of Zambia after almost 30 years in power, he had no house to move into.

Can that happen in Nigeria?

Buhari is no different from Abacha- he stands for and promotes corruption. Look at his appointed Ministers who are facing corruption allegations of embezzling collectively over a billion dollars(e.g Amaehi N97 billion, Akpabio N108 billion,Sylva N48 billion etc)
Buhari is the personification of corruption.

This is tthe only politician I can agree was not corrrupt and that played a major part why they impeached him when he was governor in the 80's

One of my friends dad, who was fanatastically corrupt and was Minister of Housing under Yardua, provided some insider information about Yardua as related to him by his Dad. And from that information I can only conclude Yardua was far from clean.

Yaradua is corrupt, who stopped the trial of a prominent south south governor that was later convicted in the UK? The efcc chair said that he was directed by the then President to drop the charges when he wanted to push forward with an appeal ......he was even removed because of the case

if we're to use it as a yardstick to measure corruption then pmb and all our former presidents are fantastically corrupt.

Truth be told buhari is not doing well but we can't in clear conscience accuse him of being fantastically corrupt....even PDP has NEVER accused buhari of such....I'm not a buharist just stating the fact.
He is not fantastically corrupt but defends Abacha and appoints to 'who is who' of corruption into his cabinet. And turned EFCC into a joke that goes only after yahoo boys and opposition politicians and turned public defender against allegations of fantastical corruption of the likes of Oshiomhole,Amaechi,Tinubu etc despite numerous calls for them to be prosecuted.

Less corrupt, but still corrupt. There is no difference between a petty thief and a thief that engages in theft on a grand scale.
