Here we go again...
Whilst no efforts whatsoever have been made by the
Nigerian Federal Government to recover sums fraudulently misappropriated by
former Head of State General Yakubu Gowon's Yakubu Gowon Center for National
Unity and International Cooperation, moneys meant for HIV?AIDS intervention
programs, inclusive of the procurement of ante-retrovirals, the Director
General of the National HIV/AIDS Control agency is gleefully soliciting for
more funds from the same Global Funds.(http://www.nairaland.com/700875/global-fund-may-suspend-nigeria

Not done with the harm they are inflicting to hapless
Nigerians with regards to corruption surrounding Polio eradication and the Roll
back Malaria programs and other public health causes supported by international
donor funds, our local health authorities seem to have their sights focused again on HIV/AIDS.
Any
doubt as to whether corruption is indeed a crime against humanity will surely
be erased by the direct deadly consequences acts of large-scale corruption is
having on the lives of millions of Nigerians.
