LWe all know that corruption is the number problem of Nigeria. Less than one percent of the population massively stealing what belong to more than ninety nine percent of us and they are still not satisfied. Nigeria is the most corrupt nation on earth and this is the root cause of poverty and insecurity.

However, some people are of the opinion that though military government can be corrupt but it can't be as much as politicians currently ruling us. In military government, there will be less number of thieves at the helm the affairs unlike in democracy. Nairalanders, what's your own opinion? Do you also think politicians are more corrupt than soldiers?

Soldiers. Infact, majority of sit down tight African dictators were soldiers that came into power via coups.

Even our own general Abacha almost turned himself to life president.

Don't you think it is because Abacha is late? If he is alive and he dances to the tune of the West, we might not know about his humongous corruption. Buhari and Tinubu are more corrupt than Abacha.

What is the difference between six and half a dozen. Both never respect the court or laws of the land.

Where there is no strong institution,impunity thrives

Well we have a lot of kids over here,military regime,for me is the worst when come to corruption,you can't questions their decision in governance,you can call the president now derogatory names, you go free, but in military regime is not like that, you talk you die,in fact you fit talk,self,the only man who was not corrupt in quote is president buhari,why he only rule for a year or less,when he was given opportunity the second time,he destroy Nigeria economy,former president obansejo was a military head of state in Nigeria, the only reason he did well as a civilian president was because of atiku,he gave the former vice president to handle her economy, atiku then loot but their tenure was the best Nigeria have

Soldiers are the most corrupt.

You can protest against a civilian rule but you can't do same under the military and still live. Your voice can be heard under the civilian rule but the military will crush your voice.

Check all around Africa, all the democratic countries are doing better than the military ruled states.
