It took the testimony of two Bosnian Muslim women (Jadranka
Cigelj and Nusreta Sivac – who themselves had been victims of mass rape
attacks) for rape to be recognized formally as a weapon of war and a ‘crime
against humanity’ and prosecuted by the International Criminal Tribunal for the
former Yugoslavia (ICTY)
Large-scale corruption leads to death of millions,
exposes innumerable people to rape, extermination, disease and death. What
really is the world waiting to recognize large-scale corruption as a ‘crime
against humanity’ before the International Criminal Court (ICC)?
In Nigeria and most other African countries, deranged
kleptocrats who seize instruments of State authority by all manner of criminal
conspiracies continue to plunder their countries wealth, pauperizing millions,
raping hundreds of thousands more, turning the dreams of millions into
nightmares, and yet the world sits idly bye?
Corruption
is indeed a crime against humanity.
