They are celebrated for embezzlement, paraded for crime in expensive cars and pardoned for looting and respected for going scot free. Wallowing in the pool of ignorance, people no longer condemn these official criminals again. The common slang now is “Na national cake… if you sef dey there, you go chop your own”. Our questions are no longer “who are the corrupt people?”, rather “who are the most corrupt Homo sapiens?” The EFCC and his toothless and clawless twin brother, ICPC used to be an efficient and effective poison against corruption, however their recent activities revealed the duo as a dog which can only bark and not bite. Hence, the law which is ever ready to devour the monsters of perversity and money laundering dragons is seen slumbering after being given an overdose of political sleeping dose. Heads of banks, speakers of the houses, past heads of state, presidents, governors, business tycoons and people in political offices are seen as a solid giant mountain which will only break the blade of our laws if tackled, while the courts were turned into a stage where villains laughed at the inadequacies of our laws. A man who stole a goat kept lamenting after years in jail while official robbers are allowed to pay millions to continue swimming in the ocean of their ill-gotten treasure.
