Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka says the current anti-corruption fight by the federal government has revealed an unprecedented level of corruption that has never been recorded in Nigeria before. Soyinka said this when the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai
Mohammed, paid him a courtesy visit at his home in Lagos today January 9th. "We have not had a case where it had been alleged and increasingly proven that money supposed to be
spent on defending ourselves, our nation, our neighbourhood, has been shared among individuals. We never had experience where we were in a state of critical emergency where children are being kidnapped under our noses. Never had there been a situation where we are helpless and our soldiers are sent to the front to defend our very existence and we are not backing them up with conduct that shows integrity and commitment. Because of these reasons, corruption is really desperate and has chosen to fight back, but I am confident that corruption will be tackled," Soyinka said.

Good talk sir. More surprises are still coming.

GOD bless pMB

A lot also went down under OBJ

Exposed?? We should be talking about prosecuting and getting a long sentence against these guys... Oh, btw PMB is the judiciary!!

This is Y President Mohammadu Buhari said Gen. Sani Abacha never stole a dime because he knew that a shoeless bastard from Otueke was coming to break all the looting records in the history of Nigeria .

Just imagine Ebele Jonathan was re-elected [alongside his 50Naira puff-puff faced Economist - Ngozi Okonjo Iweala] ; Nigeria & Greece would have become an Ukrainian siamese twins in bankruptcy.

This my man is funny sha, 2.1 billion dollars arms cash is bigger than 16 billion dollars electricity money that disappeared under Obasanjo or the Gulf oil windfall that disappeared under Babangida ? Kongi keeps giving people like Obj ammunition to shoot him with he should just focus on his guineafowl hunting and wine tasting and completely steer clear politics except he's invited by another maga for an 82 million naira lunch

Absolutely well said.

I know it makes a certain person of authority in here uncomfortable but I respect and salute the men and women of Nigerian Armed Forces, especially fellow Nairalanders amongst them

so its one year once probe in a 4yr tenure meanwhile you listed 7+ probes. You're only indicting your masters with your infantile defense. All these things can be done concurrently without slowing down the country's macro and micro economy. Mind you, I support a well orchestrated anti corruption war not this present partisan media telemundo that's taking place

82 million naira rice is talking. Today, he"s for Jonathan,tomorrow for Buhari.

how does Soyinka reason sef,how many times has Nigeria democratically transfered power from incumbent to opposition .so which before does he expect to see this kind exposure before.he should wait before another opposition takes power in the federal level before he will make this kind of comment.Anyway everybody seeks relevance with pointless comments.

op source?

I don't think Buhari government will condone this kind of massive looting that took place under Jonathan. Where is even such money now?

Expose ko impose, na revange mission, soyinka pack well

I have a dream, that Nigeria will soon transform from a third world country to a highly developed country, by the Grace of Almighty God it shall come to pass

So how much has been trace to Jonathan Account ? Are you aware Abacha money still coming up till now despite the claim by your messiah that Abacha never stole.

Many people need deliverance in this Country.

My brother thank you for saying the truth.
Let us compare the list so the some underage nairalander will learn.

-Buhari stole $2.8billion in 1978
-IBB stole oil wind fall money in 1990 worth $12Billion.
-ObJ stole $16Billion Power Money in 2006.
-And now Dasuki share $2.1 Billion in 2015.

The above information is for children on Nairaland that keep shouting 2.2billion.

Nigeria is in mess since 1960, it never started in 2015

If not for rule 2, I would have blessed your entire lineage & generation in reverse for attempting to insult our collective sensibilities.

So Sambo Dasuki would act without getting the approval of the President? Are u crazy? How about you explain to me how Jonathan came about the Dollars he was raining on the South-Western Obas few weeks to the Presidential Elections?

newsrescue.com/president-jonathan-rains-dollars-on-southwest-obas-punch-reports/#axzz3wwAcjjKQ

Meanwhile, the anti-graft agency has only beamed its search light on security votes. NNPC, SURE-P, EXCESS CRUDE ACCOUNT, NIMASA e.t.c are still on the waiting list.

Yet some shameless wailers say na media trials and no money was stolen. Doesn't that make willfully foolish individuals with tiny brains barely surpassing that of an earth worm?

suddenly $2.1 billion s now greater than IBB'S $12.5Billion gulf war oil windfall and OBJ's $16Billion energy sector fund!!! oya Kongi continue!!!
