This is what you get when you can't control the excitement and rush to social media to announce private matters. These days you can know some persons every day activity by simply following up on social media. smh! |

Fentoluwa: @chynazom you talked about police bribery, are you going to endanger your life for that sum of money you can afford? you don't argue or talk foul to a man holding gun. Many have been victims of 'accidental discharge'I must not argue or talk 'foul'...as long as I don't give the bribe. Most times the accidental discharge event occur when argument ensues. But how many Nigerians are willing to take the pain of the delay that comes with such bold step? 1 Like |

Caracta: @chynazom, do you blame the lady for sleeping with her lecturer out of fear and pressure too? In this case, the lady is the follower and the lecturer is the leader?If more and more girls keep on giving in to these lecturers, they (the lecturers)begin to feel they have immunity to such acts. This cannot always be the case all times, there is room for the reverse too. 1 Like |

jay bee: @UNNPoverty truthfully causes corruption.You mentioned about the gains our resources have brought us since independence, that is a long time. The 'gains' did not come all in one day, it's a gradual process.Same with elimination of corruption from followers, when it starts from the root(the followers) it will definitely reach the top when this followers become leaders and soon we'd starting reaping our fruits. Thank you! |

Caracta: Interesting...I must say.Telling if a leader CANNOT be corrupt us like trying to tell the future. However, like my chief speaker said, we can know a leader who is not corrupt by his/her deeds. |

Emmyk: Of course. But we have Leaders at all levels. More than just political leaders .Doesn't this contradict your stance  your point automatically makes everyone a leader leaving out the difference.! |

Emmyk: Why will a leader appoint someone with questionable character as a Judge?And if we have followers that refuse to have questionable character, who will be available for the leader to pick?? We decide to dance to their tunes and continue the trend of things. |

Emmyk: Are we also to blame the followers for the bad roads which are supposed to be Federal roads? And are supposed to be maintained by the?Who are the people handling these projects? Are they not contractors just like you and I(qualified ones definitely)? When Government disburses funds to take care of these projects and some persons decide to pocket the funds, do we still blame the Government? |

Emmyk:Birds of the same feather flock together they say. These people appointed into the positions are definitely average Nigerians like you and I. They( the corrupt leaders) will naturally pick those singing the same song with them so there wont be clashes. If we have 100% honest people likely to become judges and Chief Justices, do you not think this issue you raised can be curbed? |

Emmyk:So, if the leaders refuse to do the right thing we continue in our own wrong doings? We sit back and wait for them to take the first step while we go ahead in our little acts of corruption... I doubt how nice an idea this is. |

Emmyk: Quote from Chynazom " Let me ask this: have you ever imagined the kind of damage is done when some parents give their wards money to pay for special centres when they are about taking external exams like SSCE? If this 900 out of 1000 students taking the exams are supported by their own parents to engage in cheating, believe me a seed has already been sown in the hearts of these 900. They are made to believe that there is nothing actually wrong in cheating sometimes, this seed geminates and carried into the University and even further into life after school."EmmyK, does this justify the fact that students should employ any means possible to cheat during exams?? Whatever happened to studying hard for exams?? This thing goes on in circles, we have students who don't read to pass exams, if they end up becoming teachers, what will they have to offer their students?? |

[/quote]When we are talking about leaders we are notPromise child.If we are not talking about political office holders ONLY, I guess you are saying that leaders exist in all spheres of the society. If you admit this, how can we then justify the exemption of political office holders from corruption 'charges'?? |

Good day everyone! Standing on all observed protocols. I’m delighted to be part of this online debate yet again. I am supporting the motion that followers are to blame for this societal evil crippling our country called Corruption. My chief debater has done well to intimate us on the definition of corruption, let me add that corruption is simply dishonesty for personal gain. (Encarta Dictionaries, 2009). The concept of corruption is mostly viewed as having to do with only bribery, but there is a lot more to that. It cuts across bribery, embezzlement, theft and fraud, extortion and blackmail, exam malpractices, inflation of contracts, etc. The old saying we are all familiar with says the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. You’d wander what this statement has got to do with the topic at hand, but how can I convince this honourable audience that we are to blame the followers for corruption in our society if I fail to remind you that we need to look at the small picture before considering the bigger ones. Before we start to screen our leaders of corruption ‘charges’, let’s stop for a moment and consider the ways of the followers. The followers are not invincible beings; they comprise the ordinary man on the streets who gives out wades of cash to get a wrong kind of ‘favour’, to the uniformed men on the roads, or the students who now find short cuts to pass exams, and even the apprentice boy/girl who steal money from their bosses. How about those involved in fraud, using deception to convince owners of funds and assets to release them, those who have taken to kidnapping. These are little shades of corruption that we sometimes overlook and hang the crime on the necks of our leaders. All these activities in combination disrupts our entire system, it makes for an ungovernable society. Let’s look at it this way; a good foundation is necessary for a building to stand long and strong. But a building laden with shaky foundation, cracks and holes if definitely on its way to crashing. I am of the opinion that we the followers, to a large extent make up the foundation of our nation. Now, if we paint this picture into that of followers versus leaders, we’d be convinced that corruption amongst the followers serves as cracks in the ‘building’ of our country. We are practically using our own hands to destroy what belongs to us. Doubt that? Let me ask this: have you ever imagined the kind of damage is done when some parents give their wards money to pay for special centres when they are about taking external exams like SSCE? If this 900 out of 1000 students taking the exams are supported by their own parents to engage in cheating, believe me a seed has already been sown in the hearts of these 900. They are made to believe that there is nothing actually wrong in cheating sometimes, this seed geminates and carried into the University and even further into life after school. You can imagine the rest of the scenario. Another thing we unconsciously do as a people that aids corruption is to idolize certain wrong achievement. Some people are not after the making process of a person and his/her achievement rather they are interested in the ‘show off’ even when the source of the show off is very visible. It’s an ugly truth that must be told; when people are celebrated in such way they develop certain pride and would definitely want to retain their status, they would believe that the best way to get rich is to look for money by all means at all cost so that the worship from the masses will keep pouring in. Thus, they continue in their ways or even steal more to upgrade the already acquired status. A society laden with members that engage in corrupt practices surely must have to purge itself first of the filth that accompanies corruption. We need to see a shift in followership mentality and develop sense of responsibility, toward our immediate families and environs. We also have to work on ourselves, the followers, before looking to the leaders to do so; the masses (followers) must be re-indoctrinated to the default status (be good, work hard, don't cheat). If we fail to look in the mirror, we will continue to point accusing fingers at our leaders while new crop of corrupt followers keep joining that elite league of leaders and taking us further down the path to national destruction. In my final words, change in issues regarding corruption is what we all crave for, it begins with you and I. Thanks!
