From President To Prisoner by uneeking(m): 3:53am On Mar 31, 2017
A President becomes a Prisoner in South Korea. Can that ever happen in Nigeria?

In an unprecedented move yesterday 30th March, 2017, the immediate Past President of South Korea Park Geun-hye was arrested and jailed over the corruption allegations that has for some weeks now made life miserable for her and her family members as well as her supporters across the nation.

What a contrast this is when we take a look at the Nigerian situation. Here in Nigeria, it is usually the other way round as Prisoners become Presidents and corrupt practices of the nature that Park Geun-hye is being charged for, takes place almost daily without anyone batting an eye talk-less of there being a chance of a President going to jail for such abuses of office.

This of course is one of the major reasons why a well endowed nation like Nigeria is currently wallowing in recession while a few individuals in the same country are rich enough to bankroll the needs of some the states.

The question that naturally comes to mind is “When will Nigeria get it right enough to have corrupt elements in government brought to book as smoothly as what has just taken in South Korea”?

The answer to this and a whole lot of other questions will surely determine the direction the country heads to in the next few years to come.

God Bless Nigeria.

Forget it happening here in Nigeria.
