The Dogs and the Pigs in Nigeria

There are political subjects I deliberately ignore in Nigeria, because it would be a waste of time to discuss them.

The primitive nature of the so-called Chief Adedibu and the political prostitution of Patricia Etteh, are enough to show us the stock-in-trade of the notorious People's Democratic Party of Nigeria.

When I read that a Nigerian bank has won an award as the best bank in Africa, I chuckle and smirk, because only fools would be impressed.

To those giving kudos to the PDP led government, I feel sorry for their conceit and deceit.

If you really want to know the quality of the leadership of the PDP led government, please go on tour of the NYSC Camps in Nigeria and ask yourself if any sane government in the world would subject the future leaders of the country to such inhuman conditions and reduce Nigerian graduates to the state of animals in a ranch.

When I see the administrators of the National Youth Service Commission, I feel like hanging them if not to have them shot.

The Dogs

There are those who behave and live like dogs.
Dogs can eat the shit of their masters and the shit of anyone who can give them a piece of meat or even a bone and dogs can eat their own vomit.

The dogs are in majority.

The Pigs

They are those who have no dignity and no integrity such as the likes of Patricia Etteh, Adedibu, and others who will do anything to fatten themselves.
They are the looters and fraudsters who have made Nigeria to top the charts of the most corrupt countries in the world.

What we have is a land of desperate opportunists all scrambling for posts for their selfish interests.

Terrible things happened to people at the Nigeria LNG Limited this month and some children and adults died miserable deaths, and yet their parents and colleagues continue to drift in the flood of their ignorance.

I have been in a state of utter shock and dismay when I see how the majority of Nigerians behave like sub-humans without any regard for the dignity of humanity.
Majority of Nigerians have no scruples and that is why 85% of Nigeria is still in the Dark Ages.

Majority of them have low IQ and are shameless intellectual morons in the masquerade of their own local titular status symbols, but cannot stand when the chips are down in the global village and are contributing nothing to the growth of human civilization.

I keep on seeing full page adverts of the so called Christian universities in Nigeria, posting copies of their fake standards to misguide and mislead millions of ignorant and gullible Nigerians when God knows that they are telling lies and are predators of human souls who are partners in crime with the looters and destroyers of Nigeria.

Greedy devils and vampires manage the Nigerian banks and even though they can fool the majority of the populace, but they cannot fool those who know the truth.

The Governor of the apex bank and the beneficiaries of the corrupt system will be judged by the testimonies of those who died in misery. The retired pensioners who died whilst waiting for their unpaid pensions, and the testimonies of the unfortunate graduates who have died from preventable causes at the horrible and terrible NYSC camps and the daily lamentations of the millions of the masses suffering and dying in the state of neglect.

For how long will you continue to fool yourselves and millions of others in your fallacies and hypocrisies?

Only the best is good enough for us.

Congressional Hearing to Examine Why Many of the World's Poorest Countries Are the Richest in Natural Resources

Congressional Hearing to Examine Why Many of the World's Poorest Countries Are the Richest in Natural Resources

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ --

The following is being issued by Publish What You Pay United States:


WHAT: Public Hearing -- House of Representatives Committee on Financial Services Hearing entitled "Transparency of Extractive Industries: High Stakes for Resource-Rich Countries, Citizens and International Business"


WHERE: 2128 Rayburn House Office Building

WHEN: Thursday, October 25th, 10 a.m.

BACKGROUND:


Natural resource-dependent countries almost always develop more slowly than non-resource-dependent countries, are more susceptible to the outbreak of civil war (i.e., blood diamonds) and experience a high incidence of corruption. This is often known as the "resource curse." The natural resource sector, including diamonds, oil, gas and other minerals, is one of the most secretive sectors, with citizens of many countries (typically the legal "owners" of a nation's natural resources) routinely left to wonder how much money is being generated and where the money flows while public officials accumulate vast fortunes.


SPEAKERS:


The House Financial Services Committee will examine this issue of how better financial disclosure and transparency in the extractive industry sector may be able to help reverse this "resource curse" and to discuss potential avenues for Congressional involvement. Speakers include Ian Gary, Senior Policy Advisor for Extractive Industries at Oxfam America; Father Patrick Lafon of the Bishops' Conference in Cameroon; Terry Lynn Karl from Stanford University, David A. Baker, Vice President, Environment and Social Responsibility, Newmont Mining Corporation and Paul Mitchell, President, International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM).


Publish What You Pay U.S. is a coalition of U.S. human rights, development and environmental organizations seeking to ensure that extractive industry companies, international financial institutions and governments publish all natural resource payments, revenues, and contracts.
