Is the government of President Yardua confirming former Governor Alamiyeseigha's conviction as political? Before EFCC,there was ICPC for a long time without significant consequence because government played bad roles in corrupt cases.By Alamiyeseigha's presidential welcome and his involvement as peace keeper in Niger-Delta,are telling the international community that our peace keepers are corrupt officials.Are we not giving Alamiyeseigha an opportunity to preach his 'gospel of innocence'? Will Nigeria return the assets currently frozen?How about the fate of those EFCC officials and Ribadu who are working to bring these public officials to justice? Will Alamieyesiegha request the firing of EFCC Chairman for peace to reign in Niger-Delta?This is a big burden on our society today.Recently,the London Metropolitan police announced the freezing of Former Governor Ibori's assets, worth over 25M pounds. Ibori quickly reacted  that the metro's action was temporary.Maybe he is also a Niger-Delta peace-keeper! How will the London Metro respond if they believe the assets will be returned to Ibori even if he is found guilty? With this act, EFCC is on its way to failure,and corruption will become a heroic label.Let it be known that, if president Yardua does not play all through to the side of nigerians he will certainly not make it running nigeria.This is known fact.The president must operate away from CORRUPTION across the country and he must operate transparently staying clean and ensuring all in government stays clean.

 

I have said it many times that laws in Nigeria is made to protect the rich that have stolen money.Laws are made to punish the poor who dare challenge the rich or poor people that dare oppose the rich class.Thank God people of Nigeria are begginning to see what i saw 5 years ago that made me lost faith in the democratical process in Nigeria because the ordinary Nigerian are been neglected and they have been denied all their rights.There are two type of justice in Nigeria, one for the rich Politicians and famous,and the other is for the poor.A lot of suspect stays more than two years in jail before,they could appear in the court talkless of granting them bail.These Politicians stolen billions and they are already free and travelling oversees for medicial treatment.There is no justice in Nigeria.

 

The only options left to Nigerians is to make sure we don't have governors again,because they will always steal more to negotiate better.Why not confiscate all properties in Nigeria and hand them over to the governors, so that we negotiate our freedom back from them!Its a shame!Lord,I,Comrade Ojeremen Stephen on behalf of those without a VOICE,please let me be heard,we do not need satellite nor astronauts but good roads that both the poor and the rich can have access to move their agricultural products from their farms to the markets places,Drinkable water supply,stable electricity supply,free education from Primary to secondary school level,youths empowerment,job creation etc. There is a saying in Edo language that if one because of his or her enemy made a law with due time the law will turn arround to trap who made it.Again, we always say and beleave no one is above the law.
