‘Corruption in Nigeria originated from Britain’

  

Stop Corruption

Blasts Buhari for spineless response to Cameron’s outrage FORMER Commissioner of Police, Chief Ikechukwu Aduba, Tuesday, fired at the British Prime Minister, David Cameron, over his comments that Nigeria was a ‘fantastically corrupt’ country, saying that corruption in Nigeria originated from Britain. Aduba was also not happy at the way President Muhammadu Buhari reacted to Cameron’s insult, which he described as cowardly. His words: “Corruption in Nigeria originated from Britain whose exploitative tendencies started when they came to colonize us uninvited. Over the years, Britain has remained a hiding place for corrupt Nigerians. British banks are harbouring stolen funds from Nigeria and using same to develop their economy. Corrupt Nigerians are buying up streets in Britain to the eternal joy of British Estate business.” According to him: “The comments of British Prime Minister, David Cameron that Nigeria is a fantastically corrupt country can be justifiably termed as “outrageous”, “undiplomatic” and naive” to the core.” “He should dust his books on ancient and contemporary history and seriously study them. Having done this, Prime Minister David Cameron should book an appointment with Queen Elizabeth II for tutorials on the history of British Empire,” he said. “Part of the tutorials Cameron will receive from the Queen will dwell on British conquest of Nigeria (1900-1960), towards the end of 19th century; European countries converged in Germany on the invitation of Chancellor Otto von Bismarck, the German leader to discuss on the amicable balkanization of Africa among European powers.” “This unholy Convention was later known as “Scramble for and Partition of African in History. African Countries, Nigeria inclusive were subjugated with a combination of deception (Treaties) and superior firepower. In 1900, the British hoisted the Union jack at Lokoja. This signified British official presence in Nigeria after years of economic and religious co-operation between both countries,” he said. Aduba continued: “In 1914, there was amalgamation of Nigeria under Lord Frederick Lugard with his wife Flora Shaw, a journalist with Times of London christening the areas around the Nigeria River, Nigeria. From1900 to 1960, Nigeria was under the general tutelage of Britain. Colonial era was a period of wanton economic exploitation of Nigeria by British Empire. Our raw materials (palm produce, cocoa, tobacco, cotton, hides and skins) were exported at exploitative prices to Britain. “ “Since example is better than precept, Royal Niger Company, an amalgam of British firms bought palm produce worth two hundred thousand pounds (E 200,000) at the cost of thirty five thousand pounds (E35,000) worth of goods specifically paid in special cheques usable only in the company’s shop. Apart from raw materials, the British looted our art treasuries (Bini and Ife Bronze works, woodcarvings, totems and artifacts. “The most expensive cars and jewelries in Britain are being bought by dubious Nigerians to the benefits of their economic status. Somebody should tell Prime Minister David Cameron that those living in glass houses should not cast stones. If a country like Denmark had made the disparaging remark about Nigeria’s corruption, one could swallow the insult but not Britain, a country that turned imperialism into an art form in the past,” he asserted. The ex-police chief admitted: “Nigeria is corrupt and nobody is trying to cover the fact. However, generalizing the issue of corruption and painting all Nigerians with one tarnished brush is unacceptable.” “Research show that since corruption became prevalent in Nigeria, two per cent of the population is controlling 80 per cent of the nation’s wealth. If you add this revelation to the fact that the present All Progressives Congress, APC administration is without doubt fighting corruption aggressively enough, the comments of British Prime Minister was untimely and a deliberate provocation on Cameron’s part. “This brings us to the reaction of President Muhammadu Buhari. The president took the comment with a pinch of salt and went as far as concurring with his British counterpart. Some Nigerians are even praising him for his composure and, diplomacy under such a verbal bombardment. “As far as I am concerned, his reaction was ungallantly, insensitive and cavalier. Posterity will look at his reaction from different perspectives, but when all is given and taken, it is generally accepted that the best form of defence is attack. The unwarranted insult is for all Nigerians, the President inclusive,” he said. Aduba asserted: “Corruption is totally abhorrent to me and any measure that can be taken to stop it in Nigeria should be initiated holistically, it is only Nigerians that can solve the problem, no outsider, least of all Prime Minister David Cameron should castigate us because he is part of the problem. If Nigeria were to be commodity, the inscription on the surface would be “Made in Britain.”

Doubts over ‘second rescued Chibok girl’ after first release

Nigeria has claimed the rescue of a second Chibok girl, just days after the first, but campaigners on Friday cast doubt on her identity and attention turned to the circumstances of the releases. The army said Serah Luka was among 97 women and children rescued in the Damboa area of northeast Nigeria on Thursday morning during military operations against Boko Haram Islamists. The announcement came just hours after the first girl to be found, Amina Ali, met President Muhammadu Buhari, who said the discovery gave a “unique opportunity” to find the remaining hostages. This handout picture taken in Damboa and released by the Nigerian army on May 20, 2016 shows Serah Luka after she was released during an operation conducted by Nigeria's army in which local civilian vigilantes took part. Serah is one of 219 girls abducted from their school in Chibok more than two years ago. The student, who is believed to be a Christian pastor's daughter, said she was "at the school at the time they were abducted" and that she was from Madagali, in neighboring Adamawa state. / AFP PHOTO This handout picture taken in Damboa and released by the Nigerian army on May 20, 2016 shows Serah Luka after she was released during an operation conducted by Nigeria’s army in which local civilian vigilantes took part. Serah is one of 219 girls abducted from their school in Chibok more than two years ago. The student, who is believed to be a Christian pastor’s daughter, said she was “at the school at the time they were abducted” and that she was from Madagali, in neighboring Adamawa state. / AFP PHOTO The 19-year-old was discovered with her four-month-old baby girl, Safiya, and a man she described as her husband near Boko Haram’s Sambisa Forest enclave on Tuesday. Nigeria’s military, which has pushed out Boko Haram from captured territory in the last 15 months, has been conducting operations in the former game reserve in Borno state since late April. Until this week, rebel fighters held 219 of the 276 students abducted from the Government Girls Secondary School in the remote town of Chibok on the evening of April 14, 2014. Fifty-seven escaped in the immediate aftermath of the kidnapping, which provoked global outrage and brought unprecedented attention on the conflict, which has killed at least 20,000 since 2009. – Not on the list – The head of the Abducted Chibok Girls Parents group, Yakubu Nkeki, said unlike the first announcement about Amina, the military had not contacted them beforehand to establish the second girl’s identity. Only two girls with the surname Luka were on the list of abducted girls and none was from Madagali, in neighbouring Adamawa state, as the military said the second student had claimed, he added. The military said the teenager was believed to be a Christian pastor’s daughter but Nkeki said there were only four priests on the list of parents and none was called Luka. “I can say in my capacity as the head of the Chibok Abducted Girls Parents group that this girl is not among the abducted Chibok girls,” he told AFP. The head of the BringBackOurGirls campaign group in Abuja, Oby Ezekwisili, said they were “overjoyed” at the rescue but tweeted: “We have asked for some further verification of her identity.” A senior military source stood by the army’s statement, saying it was “beyond reasonable doubt” that she was among the girls snatched. “The military personnel who carried out the rescue operation and the civilian vigilantes who assisted them and those who know the girl confirmed that she is among those abducted,” he added. “We can only change our position if the principal of the school or the government of Borno state come out and refute this established identity of the girl.” – Sign of talks? – This week’s developments have raised hopes that the remaining students will be released and follows a so-called “proof of life” video sent to the government earlier this year. Until then, none of the kidnapped schoolgirls had been seen since May 2014, when they were shown in a Boko Haram video, apparently converted to Islam and reciting passages from the Koran. Nigeria’s government was cautious about the “proof of life” video because of difficulties establishing whether those who sent it had the authority of the group’s leadership to request talks. Security analysts tracking the conflict suggested Amina may have been released as a gesture of “good faith” by Boko Haram elements rather than by simply military action. Ryan Cummings, from Signal Risk, said escape was unlikely given that the Chibok girls were said to have been heavily guarded at militant camps in the Sambisa Forest, a vast semi-desert scrubland. “It seems very fortuitous that the hostage (Amina), child and BH husband just happened to run into a CJTF (civilian joint taskforce) patrol as described”, he told AFP in an email. Nigeria’s military have described the man found with Amina as a “suspected Boko Haram terrorist”. Cummings also suggested reports of his “defection” with such a prized asset, straight into the hands of the Nigerian army and military intelligence, also seemed unlikely.

Nigeria subjects Ndigbo to political, religious, academically, economic slavery says MASSOB

"MASSOB said amid the Conference, its pioneer, Comrade Madu will uncover the insidious plot against Biafra by Nigeria in a joint effort with the British Government as apparently appeared in the political structure of Nigeria which heinously and interminably subjected Ndigbo to political, religious, scholastically, monetary, social and social servitude in Nigeria" he said.

France bans paying for sex

French MPs have passed a law that makes it illegal to pay for sex and imposes fines of up to €3,750 (£3,027, $4,274) for those buying sexual acts, reports the BBC.   Those convicted would also have to attend classes to learn about the conditions faced by prostitutes. It has taken more than two years to pass the controversial legislation because of differences between the two houses of parliament over the issue. Some sex workers protested against the law during the final debate. 

The demonstrators outside parliament in Paris, numbering about 60, carried banners and placards one of which read: “Don’t liberate me, I’ll take care of myself”, the AFP news agency reports. Members of the Strass sex workers’ union say it will affect the livelihoods of prostitutes, estimated to number between 30,000 and 40,000. But supporters of the law have said it will help fight trafficking networks. It will also make it easier for foreign prostitutes to get a temporary residence permit in France if they agree to find jobs outside prostitution. “The most important aspect of this law is to accompany prostitutes, give them identity papers because we know that 85% of prostitutes here are victims of trafficking,” Socialist MP Maud Olivier, who sponsored the legislation, told the Associated Press news agency. The law was passed in the final vote on the bill in the lower house of parliament by 64 to 12 with 11 abstentions, France’s Le Monde newspaper reports. It supersedes one from 2003 that penalised sex workers for soliciting. Correspondents say the predominantly right-wing Senate has been opposed to the ban – and parliamentary debates have often ended in deadlock. Those found guilty for paying for sex will have to pay a first time fine of 1,500 euros, which will more than double for a repeat offence. Sweden was the first country to criminalise those who pay for sex rather than the prostitutes. Swedish authorities say the number of women on the streets in the prostitution area in Stockholm has fallen since the legislation was introduced.
