"How i spend my stolen bribe"

i was running around the web today and came across a story titled,"how i spend my bribe money." the title imediately caught my attention the cat in me got curious as to what this was about and it turned out to be about the actions of the anambra state governor.

He was creditted with saying,"he channels his bribe money into bettering the lot of the people of his state" he went further to state that since contractors would always want to part with a percentage of their profits, he deviced a means to channel the kick-backs into welfarism programmes"

now i can't help but be disgusted by his actions. is he trying to tell us he is not as corrupt as we think he is or is he simply saying he isnt corrupt at all. when did corruption have grow a gray area to wok on? last time i checkd an individual is either corrupt or he is not or is this a case of him being corrupt and his conscience is what motivated him to come up with this confession. or is this simply a distraction from a larger evil he is either about to unleash on the anambra state treasury or a distraction from an already executed treasury rape.

i honestly dont know why our leaders seem to take us all for retards like they are. i know our leaders are elected from within us. but it seems they get retarded once they assume a leadership position. in the case of the anambra state, he is corrupt, the fact that he received/accepted the kick backs make him corrupt and the fact that he didnt have the kickback givers prosecuted makes him guilty.

moving to something else, i saw a clip about lagos state on CNN inside africa yesterday. it was about the proposed eko atlantic city project being embarked upon by the state government although the government says its a privately funded project. i'll allow u watch the clip and please share your opinion with us.

thanks for reading.

CONSTITUTION TORTURE IN YOBE STATE

Does everything the Nigerian Government do have to be done against what the book says? It is not news that the governor of Yobe state passed away early last week. Reports based on information from the hospital say he died from leukaemia, his brother claims he died from complicated liver problems and not leukaemia. He went ahead and stated that he knew what his brother had died from, that the hospital in Florida didn't know what they were talking about. Whichever the case its fact that he died in an hospital in Florida, USA. Why can't our leaders carry us along, nothing hurts for him to make his health condition known. Whether leukaemia or liver problems, it wont hurt for him to have told his people what he is going through. But i guess he learnt from the top, when even his President wont admit the true state of his health to Nigerians why should a mere governor bother about same.

Another thing that bugs my mind is that, part of said governors achievements in his 2 years as governor was the construction of '2 ULTRA-MODERN HOSPITALS' but there lies my toothache, if the hospitals are said to be ultra modern and he still has to fly to Florida for medical checkup, it would be safe for me to state as fact that, Yobe state has 2 ultra modern consulting rooms and the said consulting rooms were sure not equipped enough for a mere medical checkup. but hey they are ultra modern aren't they.

Moving ahead, his deputy got sworn-in as governor in due time and while they were at it, they had to throw in a joker. The deceased governors brother got sworn-in a while later as deputy governor. I've not read the portion of the 1999 Nigerian constitution that talks about electoral laws/rules but i know a civil servant (permanent secretary of a ministry) cannot be sworn-in as deputy governor ahead of the state house of assembly speaker and all other members of the house. Mr. President sure cant say he doesn't know about this and if he took the oat to uphold the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria, then i guess so much for that oat at the moment.
