"There
is no way corruption will end in Nigeria before Jesus Christ comes. There is
corruption everywhere. It is just that the way each country does theirs is
different. But it seems the issue of graft in Nigeria is indescribable.
It is
disheartening the amount of money people steal in Nigeria. They stole so much
and keep them in bizarre places. Why do they do this knowing that one cannot
live forever? I have come to realise that looters are only rich compared to
wealthy people.
The
difference between the two is that those who steal public funds are only rich.
They steal for their greed and self alone. But wealthy people work hard for
their money. They work so hard to empower people by establishing firms where
many work. They are conscious that they have to leave legacies long after their
death. For example, Alhaji Aliko Dangote belongs to the group of
the wealthy. He empowers many and establishes companies so many can earn a
living.
My advice to the greedy ones among us is that they should strive to do
work that will speak well for them after death." The immediate past General Evangelist of the Christ Apostolic
Church, Prophet Samuel Abiara, told Punch in a recent interview, when asked
about the graft war of the current administration which some believe
is selective and lacks the expected bite.
