Calculia:
Those in power alone? Prof u don fall my hand...


Besides, what we have in Nigeria is beyond that gentle man definition.


As GEJ put it, in Nigeria we have thieves not corruption.

dishonest or fraudulent conduct by those in power, typically involving bribery.

chidyhels:
GeJ 'Corruption is not Stealing' comment was made in a media chat that I watched with my koro koro eyes

Why is he bringing CJN into it

Is Prof Osinbajo slow in simple comprehension or what?

Jonathan was explicit in explaining himself.

He stated that he had a parley with a former CJN on the incidence of corruption/crime.

He posited that Justice Mustapha disclosed that over 70% of the cases under the judge's purview were actually outright theft being branded as corruption. He was making a case that what people normally give the appellation of corruption are nothing short of thievery.

Instead of branding a public official guilty of misappropriation as corrupt, he was suggesting that a more apt or grievous term should be applied. Let the guilty official be addressed as the thief that s/he is so as to serve as a deterrent to others.

So what is difficult for this APC man to understand?

abujamal:
Ok How many of these thieves (Petroleum minister,Aviation minister,etc) has he sent to jail. Or should we say thief is not a criminal ?

nneji77:
It is obvious that you are numbskull. Mr.President was explaining that when he said that stealing wasn't corruption, that stealing should be treated as what it is, a clear case of theft. Corruption as you explained is clearly not stealing. Bribery isn't stealing. Stealing is taking what doesn't belong to you. Bribery is when you give someone who is in a position of authority money to gain access to something you need for example you lecturers that sleep with young girls or collect money to upgrade students grades. Please you even said you are a professor? Please safe us the embarrassment.

spott:
Corruption is defined as "dishonest or fraudulent conduct by those in power, typically involving bribery". The definition is simple and we all know what it is, yet Mr. President has spent the last several minutes of his media chat explaining to Nigerians what it is, suggesting we are all somehow confused about this.

The GEJ presidency has failed Nigerians. The facts are undeniable. ‪#‎ChangeWillCome‬

osinbanjo it means that ur oga buhari is corrupt cos since 1400 B.C.E he has been dishonest telling nigerians that he wrote WAEC.

bashydemy:
And please can you help your paymaster divine corruption for us abeg....What is corruption that was the question? maybe sleeping and waking up now is corruption hahaha

genearts:


WTF are u talking abt, the definition of corruption is simple, nobody should try and confuse us. If u steal as a public servant, its nt just stealing, it bcoms a case of betrayal of public trust to amass wealth wich is CORRUPTION. Bribes, kickbacks, outright stealing, mismanagement by public servants are all corrupt practises. The explanation that GEJ was giving is a beer parlour xplanation

When the CJN made that statement that jona is refering to, the CJN was talkin abt the mode of prosecution that it would be easier to get justice if the corrupt officers were prosecuted for outright stealing. Not that stealing is not corruption

expertfingers:


Truth be told you are better at putting GEJ's thoughts together than GEJ himself.

If only GEJ was this articulate,maybe....

OrlandoOwoh:

Mr man, stealing is a form of corruption just like over invoicing. Osinbajo is a lawyer just like Mustapha Akanbi.

Can you compare GMB Speech to that of GEJ? All you bias and blind APC e-supporters. I can hardly hear what Buhari says when ever he opens his mouth, yet you guys are going about picking on Mr president's accent. GMB is someone that could not call the full meaning of his party APC (all progressive confidence.... a dull man he is) during his interview with Aljazeera but you guys would rather down play such error and attack a sitting president's speech which is clearer than the person you are supporting. SHAME ON ALL YOU APC SUPPORTERS that would rather turn your face to the other side when you notice GMB flaws and come as a bull dog to attack GEJ; BLIND AND DULL AND BAIS AS YOUR PRESIDENTAIL ASPIRANT AND SPONSORS....

Looking at the comment from the so called youths that will take the country to greater heights.. I just noticed that this countryis still far.. Some people here with ordinary O'leve, so won't even graduate with good grade are here critcizing? Gosh! Is there no sensible human being on this forum again? Orhave we been brain washed? Can a sane human being tell me the meaning of Corruption? Then tell me the relationship between corruption and stealing

Granted that Jonathan needs to raise his game in certain areas to fast-track the delivery of the dividends of democrat.

But should we hold President Jonathan culpable for the intellectual laziness you are displaying here?
