This Is How America Treat Their Yam Eaters by Eziachi: 5:59pm On Jan 25, 2016
So much noise had been made about those handcuffed in Nigeria over their alleged economic crime against the masses. Some are screaming dictatorship, rule of law and the rest of it, below are some of American handcuffed and some in orange and green jump suits and chained on the ankles. This is not a Buhari's nation. This is the United Sates of America.
1. Allen Stanford: Billionaire CEO now serving 110 years
2. Ms Pendergest-Host
3. Andrew Fastow
4. Bernard Madoff: Billionaire CEO.
In real life, the likes of Metuh, Dasuki, Haliru Bello, Bafarawa etc are too small to be these guy's driver.

Because most Nigerians are suffering from what they call Stockholm syndrome, where a victim defend his abusers and abductors.
Below are:
1. Jeffrey Skilling, former chief executive of Enron Texas
2.Bernard Ebbers, the former chief executive of WorldCom

No, i disagree, In the case of stockholm syndrome, there is an identity crisis situation, individuals would have gone through psychological trauma which in turn warrants the positive feelings they exhibit & associate with their captors & shackles...

I call it a kind of conscious & fully composed insanity...

In the Nigerians' case, there is no comparison,

Our own can be attributed to bad belletisis, a conscious & sane state of being unjustifiably aggrieved & irrationally sentimental about glaring issues....

Our People are very OK, all senses alert, all they seek & make them euphoric is one UPPING their perceived "enemies"....

They have tagged some people & are ready to sabotage all & any effort to make them see that the path they are on leads no where but perdition..

The reason Metuh was handcuffed and Dasuki not has been clarified a long time ago for all who ARE interested in knowing, there is absolutely no issue there of preferential treatment. I get so easily bored and have little patience for people who cry wolf any time any attempt is made to arrest public officers linked to corruption scandals, did they care about preferential treatment when they were helping themselves to the money?

The injustice is not one being handcuffed and the other not being handcuffed, the injustice is the lives pushed into poverty and the numerous countable and uncountable deaths we can directly attribute to corruption and the lost opportunities brought about by corruption, that there is the real injustice. If you think EFCC is being one sided in its fight submit your case with evidence. It isn't all about making noise online and trying to pass off anecdotes as fact. It is only logical that most of the people being arrested are PDP members, the party was in charge for the past 16 years!! It is called opportunity!

Keep crying for rogues that doesn't know about your existence. I rather spend my energy on something useful than crying for any politician. Wake up and smell the coffee.

Before you ran of tissue, just ask yourself this question: When Metuh was moving his errand cash about did he mention about some inconsistency and preferential treatment on how you and your family can equally get your share of the Santa Clause Dasuki's generosity? No!!
Despite everything you have heard and seen, many of you are still warped in ethnic politics against the reality in front of you. These men are wicked and when it comes to sharing what belong to you and everybody, they don't care about tribe or language.
Why should you care?
You are a victim for crying out loud!!

If Metuh stole and is proven guilty, let him be jailed 400 years but the same treatment should be meted out to others from the other parts of the country. The bigotted president himself said he won't treat everyone equally. So it right for everyone to be on guard and scrtinize to every move he makes especially those he declared 5% voters.

APC also has criminals too. In the US which you are using as a model system, presidents' buddies, high ranking politicians, governors in the ruling democrat party also go to jail for corruption. Why are APC members declared sqeaky clean?
Buratai has been fingered and we should all be intrested in how he is probed.

The fight against corruption must spare no sacred cows.

Unfortunately, you assumption has no historic backing hence I will ignore you next time.

Your premises are faulty and cannot stand empirical test.

Stop reading motive instead of comment and if you must, then quote references from my submissions to buttress your point.

Nigerian Student are already backward and you want them to base their judgement on emotions instead of empirical evidence and comparative analogy.

Life without emotion is meaningless. The reason corrupt people got away with crime in Nigeria is because millions of Nigerians has no single emotional attachment to their collective wealth. How can someone steal from you and you occupied most of your time and energy blowing meaningless grammar defending the indefensible? As an Igbo man I find that astonishing because our traditional Igbo culture abhors anything associated with stealing.

Leave them to keep shouting one side. It is not about filling arrest quota (we arrested one PDP so we should arrest one APC so we looked balanced). He who is guilty should face the law, and if it's 90% PDP then so be it, they were in power for the past 16 years after all.

There are processes attached to the law and there is the perception of justice, and they are not always the same thing, neither do they always overlap. Processes are man made and can fail, but the end goal and intention should be what is kept in mind at all times - a sense of JUSTICE. Anybody you think should be investigated and is not being investigated, draw attention to it, gather evidence and submit to EFCC or other bodies.
