James Ibori was given a title?
Wow! That's really great.
Why so many Nigerians aren't feeling OK with it especially those from the South West?
Why really?
Oh ok. He is an ex-convict. He is corrupt right? He stole money I guess.
But whose money really if yes? Lagos Money? Ogun? Of cos, it was Delta money.
Some even said during his time as a governor, he built roads, paid teachers, people were happy. So, there is nothing wrong if he steal some, after all, nobody is perfect. Just the same way some learned guys in Lagos once challenged me that Fashola could steal as well since he was working . Same goes across other regions. Ekiti cannot be left out as well.
Aren't we becoming funny as a people? Well, it is understandable. If a man stays too long in chain, his right is given to him as a gift.
Then who are those giving him title really?
Of cos the Deltans themselves. And that makes it interesting and a good story to write but let me make it as short as possible.
When people say our greatest problem as a country is corruption, I just laugh profusely. Because I have come to realise that there is something stronger than corruption. Because corruption to me is just a symptom of the fundamentals that gave birth to it.
It is that fundamental that has kept Yari of Zamfara as the Governor of that state after his declaration that Meningitis was a product of fornication. You don't
