In china, the CJN would have been executed publicly..

In Japan the CJN would have committed suicide.

In Europe the CJN would have resigned.

In the US the CJN would be facing a congressional hearing, and be facing 20 years jail time.

In south Africa his houses would have been vandalized and set on fire and he would be in protective custody so he is not killed by protesters and rioters.

But in Nigeria, a corrupt man being the head of the judiciary is celebrated and SAN's rally round him to fight for him, while d common man comes on fb to support him, with over 40 houses and over N1billion in his account as a civil servant??

we truly belong to poverty as a nation, we really haven't suffered enough.

What most Nigerians agree on is that Buhari is conscientiously against corruption. This may give him an edge but you do not take chances, make unforced errors or create self-inflicted wounds this close to an election that is so important to your interest. The fact that his political alternative is worse may not overcome the zealousness and penchant pursuit of opponents. Buhari may have mellowed, but the team around him are still dogmatic as ever.

Bottom line, if it takes a devil to clean up Nigeria, so be it. Nigeria would bleed to death if vagabonds are allowed to use due process to delay justice each time they are caught red-handed in the cookie jar. All the excuses that if you are corrupt, you can only seek equity with clean hands is in the land of angels. KAI not in Nigeria O!

If you shield Maina, Babachir, Kyari, Gandollar etc and you wants everybody to unite to deal with Onnoghen, then you must be a joker!

NigeriaIsDoomed:
You don't even know the meaning of corruption.
Who is as corrupt as the lifeless, brainless dullard? None.

We are now left conflating, debating and fighting to distinguish between form and substance. Whatever the case, corruption in the highest places and how to deal with it by due process do frustrate the common man that hardly get the same opportunity for minor infractions.

Well if I asked you too where Odùduwà came from, I have a feeling you would give a wrong answer too, despite being Yoruba yourself. They know yorubas in the majority don't know where Odùduwà is from and use this to their own benefit

mightyhazell:
If u say so,...atleast igbos supported them at one point or another. Show me in history where yoruba supported Any igboman for anything...


Even tho majority igbo rascally soldiers endangered the whole igbo race,trying to rescue awolowo from the jaws of the balewa and sardauna led northern elements.... Only for awolowo to encourage ojukwu into a war he was not Prepared for and swiftly joined forces to exterminate him and the igbo race

macof:
i don't know why Bini people forget this so often

When 1983 Election came. NPN rigged massively returning Shagari to power. People were dumbfounded and could not believe that their disapproval against corruption was taken for granted. More important, it had not registered in their votes. The same people praising Buhari after his death and blaming Buhari now, were celebrating when Buhari struck. Who else could have overthrown Hausa head of Government bloodlessly but Buhari?

There are many speculations why Buhari and Idiagbon struck but Nigerians were relieved! While it is true that Buhari was known as a religious fanatic, his abhorrence for corruption was not in doubt. Buhari and Idiagbon lived up to their reputation. They sanitized the polity and Government. Operation War Against Indiscipline, WAI was entrenched and discipline returned to the polity. Yes, we also paid a price of lack of civil liberty but had financial discipline.
