Shame on Transparency International - that busybody global organisation that has traditionally tried to rubbish Nigeria's image by ranking it among the top percentile of the world's most corrupt nations. World Bank officials who are lamenting that that over $300billion (about N48trillion at today's prices) of public funds were siphoned out of the system by various Nigerian public officials within a short space of two decades can now go jump in a lake!
Hurray, we can now all pour scorn on the United Nations agency responsible for annually dishing out those jaundiced human development indices that, among other things, insinuate that this nation has one of the highest maternal and infant mortality rates, one of the highest rates for out-of-school school-age children and the highest youth and graduate unemployment in Africa, only just marginally out-performing nations such as Somalia, Central African Republic and Chad plagued by civil wars, abject poverty and natural disasters.
