ReplyDeleteWhat a wacky country!!! Steal N17billion (yes, seventeen billion Naira) a la Tafa Balogun, you get 6 months imprisonment to stay in an air-conditioned hospital. Steal N7,500, you get one full year in a rat-infested, bed-bug infested, dingy hole. Nigeria will NOT make any progress whatever we do UNTIL real justice and equal rights take hold in this place.
