UK to return Ibori’s loot to Delta State — The Punch - Nigeria's Most Widely Read Newspaper

I hail the UK court for their judgement and leniency for reducing the sentence on thief Ibori, but the confiscating proceedings part which will eventually lead to the return of his unquantifiable loot be return to Delta state, Nigeria would have been nice, only if the money will not go into the waiting itching wrong hands of the seating governor of Delta state, either for his own personal keep or keeping it for the thief so when he comes back, he can fall back on it to continue oppressing the people. Point number two is that experts have figured it out that the monies as analyzed in this article is mind boggling and disheartening because put together, it could afford the entire nation (Nigeria) to install a power plant or rather put in place Uninterruptible Power Supply for ever or many years to come for the nation, an epidermic that has plagued the nation costing her the deserved economic and infrastructural development and making the people enjoy their lives. I have often suggested that we return back to colonial rules because we lack the spiritual and mental physical ability to rule or govern ourselves. This is critical because the Nigerian government and it's corrupt incompetent judiciary prosecuted and freed Ibori and many looters and criminals, walking freely in the streets of Nigeria, ironically the colonial lords got him to plead guilty to all 10 counts (unforced), punish him by sentencing him to 13 years in jail, and even proceeding to confiscate and return his loots to Delta state government is laughable and ridicule on Nigerian government. "Shame on you bad blood leaders of Nigeria" It would have been nice if God can come down and make a clean sweep and wipe out those bad people and leaders from that country as in the days of NOAH in the old testament of the holy bible. and rebuild that nation with good people.

THEWILL - Expanding the National Conversation - Pension Probe: Drama As Senate Asks Police To Investigate EFCC

It is alarming the rate at which people steal money and go free in Nigeria, while the generality of the people remain in abject poverty. They play with the people like a chess game, the EFCC who investigates people including the POLICE are now to be investigated by the police, meanwhile the people who stole the billions are not prosecuted and adequately punished,   and the looted money returned. What's wrong with our people?

News -- Viewpoint: Who is marginalising the Binis?

In a situation when the Bini political elite seem to be complacent and an Adams Oshiomhole from a minority tribe in the North Senatorial district now determines who becomes their councillor, their chairman, members of the House of Assembly, House of Representatives, Senate and the Deputy governor among the Binis, a renewal of faith in some basic moral virtues is necessary.
"Edo or Odion" is good if it does not end up with the exchange of carrots for a pot of porridge or breaking of kola-nuts; if it does not end up with Oshiomhole deciding who and who should represent the Bini in every elected position; if it goes beyond the inclination to receive cash and car gifts by some traditional rulers of Bini scion, to sell the opportunities of the people at the corridors of power.

THEWILL - Expanding the National Conversation - Senate Starts Const. Amendment; Moves To Create State Appeal Court

This is an interesting bill. It has been an issue of concern to a lot of progressive minded citizens as the set up wasn't right in the first place, giving too much power to the state government and opportunity to fraud. The tertiary government is supposed to be autonomous to enhance development to the grass root, if they are given the responsibility to manage the affairs of the local government without the interference of the state and federal government. It will be highly commendable if the senate is able to make this amendment possible.
