In every chemical composition there is equal and opposite reaction.
So therefore thief=corruption and corruption =thief

according to Oxford advanced learners dictionary CORRUPTION =(1: dishonest or illegal behaviour, especially of people in authority. 2: the act or effect of making somebody change from moral standards of behaviours then stealing on the other hand = to take something from a person,shop,treasury etc without permission and without intending to return or pay for it you see stealing is not corruption but corruption is stealing just like pen is not biro or leo smart but biro is pen. So lets not sugar-coat stealing with corruption

GEJ is right calling a thief a corrupt man or woman is like celebrating his/her criminal status; simply put call him/her a thief,he/she may not be bold to come and contest election, masses may stone them. Politicians are Barawo's

Nothing right about that! stealing is a corrupt act and he seriously goofed with that statement. gej was a national embarrassment.

The guy is right. Corruption is mild to the ears of men while stealing is more evil. What many politicians do is STEALING but use corruption to lessen it's gravity.

The CJN, Mustapha decided to take a look at the files that dealt with corruption and more than 80 per cent of them were just cases of stealing
The above was extracted from the post of the op, did you observe how he referred to stealing as 'just'?

is biro pen? Yes it is. Can it write? Yes it can. But that does not make a biro pen. Calling it a pen makes people generalize it, but a biro or leo smart remains a biro or leo smart no two ways about it
