EFCC AND EX-GOVERNORS
Sitting on my news desk this tuesday morning,I wonder why people do wrong without realising that someday they may have to face the consequences.While the ex-govs. were in office and looting the treasury,Seriously enriching themselves with public funds and leaving the citizenry weeping and wailing,They forgot to hold the thought that someday reckoning may knock on their doors ! Before may 29th there was great anxiety of what would become of the ex-govs. after they leave office.The EFCC had created the awareness that nothing(except investigating) could be done to the govs. while they still enjoy immunity,t'was as a result of this alot of 9jarians were dissappointed with the EFCC for not carrying out any action after the govs. left office,EFCC's reason was that,they want to use a civil approach to prosecute the ex- govs.That was when i asked myself,is it now from immunity to civility?
the civility approach gave a bit of hope to some ex-govs. who then chose to boast that nothing can be done to them,i heared a few even went ahead on moves to remove Ribadu as the commission's chairman.
Well while the commission has so far arrested four ex-govs(the 5th,taraba ex-gov. is unconfirmed),I don't want to believe that it is being selective in the arrest and prosecution proces.The four so far,Orji Kalu(abia),Saminu Turaki(jigawa),Joshua Dariye(plateau) and Chimaroke Nnamani(enugu) is a good start,but the EFCC should ensure that all corrupt ex-govs. (even piccadilly) be prosecuted.
