When Ibrahim
Lamurde, the head of Nigeria’s Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC)
leaves his house every morning, where does he really tell his family he is
going to? To play golf? To tackle corruption?
Considering
the avalanche of multi-million dollar looting, brigandage and pilfering of
State resources which have become the order of the day, and the fact that right
from the onset, Lamurde had been unfit and improper for the job, I really
believe the man simply goes into his air-conditioned office, orders a bottle of
beer and chills out. Except ofcourse when he is running after small time
pranksters who are sending ‘sweet deal’ offers to con gullible and greedy
loonies.
In the
interim, our kleptocrats, tired of waiting for the niceties of budgetary
appropriations, contract bidding and padding, supply of counterfeits or
outright non performance of contracts after contract sums have been collected,
now go straight to the National Mint and take as much as they can carry.
Yet, we have
people collecting salaries at the EFCC and various insecurity agencies in
Nigeria!
Time is fast
running out for a convenient Restructuring and Renegotiation of the
contraption!
