Ikhide,
You supported Jonathan who personified the stealing political elite and you campaigned against Buhari whose ONLY credential is to stop the looting.
YOU and educated elite of your ilk are complicit in the looting. Before you raise any unsustainable defence my good self and many like me have been fighting against this looting. I started at 17 and I am still at the task.
There is no Utopia in politics. There is no black and white but shades of both colours but when you exposed your privates and intellectual shallowness in public you abstained from choosing the better alternative. That your moral abdication deny you any moral high ground to speak against corruption because you are corrupt too or at the minimum you are complicit in supporting a corrupt government or by not actively supporting a man who personifies anti corruption.
Cheers.
IBK
--"Since 1960, over $600 billion in oil revenues has flowed into Nigeria’s coffers; it represents an opportunity unavailable to much of the developing world. These petrodollars could have been spent productively, could have transformed agriculture, laid the foundation for an effective public education system, provided much-needed infrastructure. Yet, according to the World Bank, of that $600 billion, $300 billion has simply disappeared into overseas bank accounts through theft and corruption."I have another source document that insists that $400 billion was looted. By the way, Oby Ezekwesili and others use these figures...
