In every nations this set of people is certainly there, many people work for years and gather experience, become exposed to politics and leadership, admire positions and opportunities to rule, if finally by virtue of elections you're vote into an office they assume a legal rights to steal and loot public funds,
They same person who was once working with all Obedience to serve their boss, will in a long run forget the past and pursuits selfish interest, I don't know if leadership automatically baptize one into corruption in some Africa nations and other part of the world using lobby as an approach to stealing public funds. But can nation like Nigeria that is so much with corruption fought corruption? Since the supposed leaders who was supposed to fight corruption are involved?
There is a big differences between a habit that someone learn and a character that someone have within me, no one is saint, but people are just looking for a great and big opportunity to display that. Forget about Nigeria or African countries, other countries also faces the challenges, problems and difficulties that the Nigerians are facing. Corruption is in everywhere. Being an employee is different from being a leader. When some people are into politics and they become a politician, and most especially a leader, they feel superior. They usually develop that habit of ignoring, and looking down on the poor. I knew that Nigerians are suffering from insecurity, but It quite unfortunate and unfair that the leaders are not directly paying attention to the cries of the citizens.
