Buhari promised to kill corruption if elected! http://leadership.ng/news/417280/ill-kill-corruption-in-nigeria-buhari But here is my personal submission..... buhari can never kill corruption!!! he couldn't kill corruption when he had absolute power as military dictator, but think he can do it now as a constitutional president, what a joke!!! first, buhari do not know how to fight corruption! supposing he did know, Nigeria would have been corrupt free by now, because buhari was once a head of state! secondly, l prefer Gej's way of fighting corruption to that of buhari! buhari believes in fighting corruption by jailing people with little or no care on the root cause! while Gej on the other hand believes in building corrupt free system that can last even when he is no longer there!! but unfortunately most Nigerians prefer action with no result, for instant, do you know how many people buhari would have sent to jail because of fertilizer scam without solving the problem itself! but Gej came in change the corrupt system that have been there for years even to the time of buhari, But now it is impossible for corrupt people to operate with the new system without making too much noise about it. 99 Likes 7 Shares |

I think we need to be sincere wiv ourselves. Corruption is being handled wiv kids glove in dz present administration nd we all knw it. I bliv we need a leader dah hz a firm anti-corruption stand. A situation whereby anti corruption institutions nw run afta yahoo boys is height of inefficiency. Dz institutions need to be strenghtened. I bliv corrupt govt officials shld be prosecuted, pple who enrich themselves wiv public funds shld face d consequence. 118 Likes 1 Share |

GEJ's system of fighting corruption is... eh... NON-EXISTENT! How can you fight corruption when you refuse to admit it exists and even struggle to define what corruption means?? Remember "Corruption is not Stealing"? Jonathan is corruption personified. 188 Likes 12 Shares |

This is one of the dumbest post I have ever read. Prosecuting corrupt persons is the last stage of fighting corruption. Where they are weak controls or the ineptitude of leaders to curb corruption, corruption will grow. You first start fighting corruption through an anti-corruption bill. This sets the tone on how corruption will be tackled. The UK has about 4 Acts on Bribery and Corruption, including Acts of Terrorism and this is reviewed regularly. Next, you check the controls in place to curb corruption, waste and theft. Now this is where Jonathan and his dumb aides are screaming (laughs). These controls (Physical or IT related) will ensure that it is difficult to engage in corrupt practices. Examples includes centralisation of payments (like the IIPS put in place by NOI), Proper authorisation of payments, good audit trails of transactions etc. These controls must be reviewed for weaknesses and strengthened at all times. Now, because we have hardened criminals in this country, controls might not curb corruption. This is where prosecuting agencies like the EFCC and ICPC comes into play. However, these prosecuting agencies cannot prosecute or arrest persons who have engaged in corruption if they are not reported. Hence, there is the need for whistle blowing agency on corruption, where anonymous persons can whistle blow of suspected corrupt practices or alleged corrupt practices. Likewise, the office of auditor general of the federation, if they are very efficient should be able to spot corrupt transactions and report to the prosecuting offices. Also, corruption does not end with Public offices alone. It is even more perpetrated in private organisations. Now, it should be mandatory that every organisation train their employee on anti-corruption practices and send training reports and attendance on an annual basis. Whistle blowing can also work for private organisations too. Directors or CEOs would gets involved with corruption should be blacklisted amid prison time and should never hold such position nor get involved with corporate governance. The same should be application to public officer holders too. That is free consultancy and that is how you fight corruption. 50 Likes 2 Shares |

Boss13: while making a point you don't start with insult, that will send a wrong signal, and will rubbish every thing no matter how good your point is! I will ignore your first paragraph. now your second paragraph said it all! "Prosecuting corrupt persons is the last stage of fighting corruption." thats what our president is currently doing! taking it step by step, stage by stage before arriving to the last stage as you pointed out. but for some people their knowledge on how to fight corruption starts and ends with the last stage! just by jailing people without finding the lasting solution to it. 16 Likes |

@ OP, are u referring to goat/ yam system. Have u considered when separate the goat and the yam, another goat can go from behind and eat the yam? The question is: what is the penalty for stealing govt's money? 6 Likes 1 Share |

xrisdon: I did not insult you but considered the post to be dumb. Even this comment you just made. You do not assume on the premise of statements. We are in a democracy and in a democracy we are guided by the constitution (the highest law in the country). You cannot arrest people without any iota of suspicion. It is left on the onus of the alleged corrupt person to prove that he did not partake in any corrupt activity. Though, it is assume that corrupt persons are innocent until proven guilty. From your post, I will presume that many of us do not understand how corruption is being fought. Some based their indices on conviction rate; others on the factors that create incentives for corrupt practices. Me, I will based mine on the leadership tone set above, because that is what drives and encompasses the urge to curb corruption. Statements made by the President on corruption are not encouraging and hence, I tend to score his administration poor on the fight against corruption. Aside that, if we take conviction rate as an indices you will find out that the EFCC is doing little or nothing and hence, the perception index is high (internally and externally). System controls - The president has said he does not intend to lock up people in jail for corruption but to fight corruption with system. On a honest note, I like this approach because there is also considerable cost savings from prosecuting corrupt offenders (this cost includes; logistics, paper filing, court prosecution, lawyers fees, the use of experts and their fees (forensic auditing); and other miscellaneous cost attached for just one conviction). As revealed, it cost the Britons a huge estimate of money to convict Ibori (I have forgotten the actual figure). So this approach saves cost. However, system controls can be overridden, especially but those who implemented it (for example, minister of finance, CBN, the president himself, other important aides e.t.c). Also, there may be one or more persons, with knowledge of the system, to collude and circumvent the operative effectiveness of the control system. Finally, system controls may fail. So like I said previously, an effective fight against corruption, which our eminent president, isn't doing includes and is not just limited to system controls as recommended by the president - - High leadership integrity and commitment on the fight on corruption - Effective Anti-corruption Act - Efficient and effective anti-corruption system controls - Whistle blowing programs and procedures - Effective law enforcement agencies to act as a deterrent - Blacklisting and incarcerating corrupt offenders; by maintaining a good comprehensive list of corrupt offenders and circularizing them regularly. Even with the above, there will still be droplets of corruption, however, the overall perception and actual corrupt practices will reduce drastically because the risk engaging in corruption will be outrageously higher than the benefit. Now based on the above, can you honestly admit that President Jonathan is fighting corruption? I intentionally left out the bad attributes of corruption in order not to make my response verbose and also note that I did not insult your person. Another free consultancy. Have a great day 36 Likes 2 Shares |
