Nigeria Has Never Had It This Bad Since Independence - Ribadu

Pioneer Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Malam Nuhu Ribadu reiterated his earlier statement that Nigeria is like a sinking ship because of corruption, insecurity, injustice and wanton killings of people.


Ribadu who spoke to the British Broadcasting Commission, BBC, Hausa Service, lamented the present situation in the country which he said has never been this bad since independence.


Ribadu’s latest comment might elicit another round of rebuke from the presidency which had only just recently described him as “ethically challenged and a political prostitute” for expressing similar view points at a public lecture organised by the Students Representative Assembly of the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria.

 In the BBC interview, Ribadu was quoted as saying, “We have never found ourselves in such situation, considering the level of blood shed. Some places are under emergency rule, crises in other places, level of poverty, injustice and corruption. I do not thought (sic) it will ever happen in Nigeria the way it is happening in the last two years.
 
“Go to the airport and see how many private jets are parked – there are 400 private jets standing from here (Abuja) to Lagos. Each of these jets cost the owner $10m, $20m, $30m to $50m and the cost of one jet can build a university, big hospital. But many people have it. Our leaders today are no longer using chartered flights because each of them uses his own. We never experienced this before. We are blessed with wealth but the money never goes to the common people. The only solution is for leaders to fear God and do justice,” he said.
