Primary source of corruption in Nigeria: Population Figure - Grandson Soyemi


BY Grandson Soyemi In 1983, that was 32 years ago, Mr Buhari came to power through a military coup with a signpost of anti-corruption. Since then, we have had Babangida (8yrs); Shonekan (3 months); Abacha (5yrs); Abdulsalam (1yr); Obasanjo (8yrs); Yar'Adua (3yrs), and Jonathan (5yrs). Lo and behold, Mr Buhari is still ranting and grandstanding about anti-corruption in 2015. Yet, the primary source of corruption in Nigeria is the population census figure. The census figure is applied to the distribution of wealth and resources generated from all the six geopolitical regions of Nigeria as well as to create political delineations. Hausa/Fulani people are the most corrupt in Nigeria and Buhari is a corrupt man. He recognizes that there is no scientific evidence to suggest that the population of the Hausa/Fulani North-West is up to the population of the Yoruba people of the South-West, yet, he is unwilling to address this kind of corruption. But, grandstanding over none missing oil money and making ridiculous allegation of stolen crude oil up to the tune of 250 thousand barrels per day. More so, he is mindful of the fact that 90% of the revenue generated in the Yoruba region of South-West goes to Abuja and ended up being used to fund the economic growth and development of the Hausa/Fulani North-West, yet, he is not perturbed and not ready to correct this kind of corruption because it favours his Hausa/Fulani people. Obama in his speech in Kenya praised the country for its new constitution that was approved via a referendum in 2010 that brought about regional government in Kenya as well as peace and stability. Mr Buhari is still making noise about corruption and believes that democracy in a multi-ethnic, multi-religious and multi-lingual country must be structured along a unitary presidential system. He has no regard for public opinion and already using force against the operators of Radio Biafra, a group of young Ibo citizens calling for a referendum to decide a Yes or No plebiscite on Nigeria. My video here explains the fundamental problem of Nigeria. It isn't corruption. Watch and learn.
