Whether the list of names is longer or not,we may have to call on all good citizens to demand a probe of all those who looted the Nigerian treasury while serving under Babangida in the various parastatals including the women in the so-called Better Life for Rural Women. I remember late Gani Fawehinmi challenged the funding of the programme. This is an opportunity to open the can of worms of the looters.

Am I missing something? I saw ten names and I guess only one could be said to come from SW Yoruba. And not a very notable one for that matter. So where is the justification of the allegation that "SUPPORTERS OF BABANGIDA COMING BACK TO POWER IS DOMINATED BY SOUTH WEST YORUBA …." Are there more than ten names? Wherever they might have come from though, these were beneficiaries of IBB's corrupt regime who want to complete the task of annihilating the emerging middle class which they thought they had destroyed. They would now complete their task of reinstating the Nigeria of their dream, a two-tier society of "haves" and "have-nots". On the other hand, these may be "419" schemers who want to have their share of our national patrimony corruptly converted by IBB during his dictatorship. It behoves all of us, in whatever small way, in any influence group to which we may belong to let the people know that Nigeria is too blessed with people capable of true and committed leadership than to be recycling these waste matters of yesteryears that ruined our past. May the blood of Dele Giwa, Gloria Okon, MKO Abiola, Gen Bissala and many others haunt IBB and his supporters.
