In all honesty, i see nothing wrong with bribing officials to secure deals
I know it gives unfair advantage to others but somehow, it relaxes competition and makes the one who spends more(to seal a deal) get motivated to give a perfect job

Business tycoons and Kings/Emperors in the past used this to win stuffs over tom themselves

Life is very easy when you dont have to compete for everything like its some world cup
. See your life! Bribery is the major reason why contractors deliver shoddy jobs. Let's not encourage it rather, let all contractors compete in a fair manner.

I hope you guys are being sarcastic, otherwise I'll have no option than to think you have a severe case of inferiority complex.
Since when did it become normal to bribe government officials under any circumstances? And most importantly, would you have said the same thing if this was the Nigerian government that cancelled such a law against bribery?
I am not being sarcastic. If you truly understood my text, you will know that there's a context to my comment.

Yes, it's the fault of your useless country. It's not the fault of American government. It's the fault of Trump that you decided to have a shithole country. In a serious country, there are standards and everything that happens there must stick to the rules or you face the consequences.
Yup.

America is blameless.

Bribery should be allowed, and only the receiver should be guilty.

Let's be honest, that law shouldn't be in existence in the first place. Every country wants their companies to win deals, make money and bring a lot more home. That way, the companies can create jobs and pay huge taxes to the government. If American companies are involved in unethical practices overseas, the foreign government should prosecute them. Trump needs money to reposition Trump Country!
This is how Hitler happened. Those of you hailing Trump for destroying the very fabric of American moral leadership because it feeds your biases will one day be at the receiving end of his wicked policies. It's still morning. Let's see how it pans out.

I understand your context but you only have that perspective because it's a foreign country involved. If you heard that Nigerian officials bribed some officials in Sweden, for example, will you still have the same opinion? When we start giving "context" to criminal activities, the whole system will collapse sooner or later

By the way, this is NOT surprising.

Trump himself ran a CRYPTO SCAM a day before his inauguration
His scam WRECKED 810,000 people.

Yet there are FOOLS that'll swear on their grandmother's grave that he's the paragon of integrity and honesty.

Even Musk gave a Sieg Heil right before our eyes. They said no.

The following week, he told a Nazi German Party that Germans should forget the guilt of the past.

Trump has said he would move White South Africans to US, Bribery is now acceptable, Canada should become the 51st state, Greenland should be taken, Gaza should be evacuated and made a real estate for America

And people are hailing .

I swear, maybe one just has to be a demon.

Your hypocrisy is astoundingly legendary.
So you’re admitting that it’s totally okay if a corrupt politician accepts bribe from a foreign government, or agency to shortchange businesses in Nigeria that would’ve been done locally thus generating jobs and revenue for the local economy. Right??

Don’t mind these sell-outs who will scream “No” when a black man does one thing wrong but screen “Yes Sir” when oyibo does the same thing 10 times worse than the blacks. They are a huge part of the reason why Africa is suffering.

Now, Nigeria should up its anti-corruption/ anti-bribery laws or else the indigenous companies will be run over as they can't avoid paying bribes in dollars. Inshort we should have some bills at the National Assembly by now to forestall cases of Process Development, etc from happening again.

Nigerian politicians can never be caught aiding corruption elsewhere to improve this country because they don't even believe in this country in the first place. Whenever you want to draw an analogy, be smart about it.

Mr Man rest. Trump is right.
What's American business if Nigerian officials demand bribe b4 awarding oil well to an American company.
That's a Nigerian headache.

Chinese companies bribe African politicians like no tomorrow, and we can see the outcome all over Africa... Winning contract all the time n bringing revenue to china.

Those Chinese companies dare not try such nonsense in china, they will be hanged.

If Africa wants to be corrupt, it's not Chinese business. It shouldn't be America either.

You don’t understand Chinese politics and development. China doesn’t bribe, they capitalize on opportunities. You need infrastructure but you don’t have money, they will provide, build , operate then transfer it. They don’t bribe, unlike the USA 😂, masters of corruption.

If Nigerian business men bribed Swedish or Uganda govt officials to win contract, it's not the business of EFCC.

The revenue ends up here in naija, that's the Koko.

But if same Nigerian business men divert the funds or bribe Nigerian officials, they should be dealt with by EFCC because out local laws do not tolerate corruption.

If Sweden and Uganda tolerates corruption, that's their business not Nigeria's.

That's how china became a superpower within a decade.
