Who else heard the news that Senator Yele Omogunwa, who is currently representing Ondo South Senatorial District on Wednesday, 25th of January 2017 while contributing on the floor of the Senate suggested that Nigeria should legalise corruption? Well I did and I didn’t find it funny like most Nigerians did. With such news, I realised we have the wrong individuals in power as our leaders. We are kinda in for it!

Senator Omogunwa even argued that with such legislation corrupt politicians (like him I guess) and public officials will have no reason to hide their loot abroad. He suggested that legalising corruption would be a good way of curbing it since it has eaten deep into the fabrics of this nation.

How will such legislation achieve that almost impossible feat? He was of the opinion that a legalized corruption would help politicians and public office holders to invest their loots in businesses in Nigeria rather than stashing them abroad. But who told him his corrupt colleagues are even planning to develop the country? Most of them are there to fill their pockets that explain why they have been unable to come up with developmental initiatives over the years.
