President Jonathan's meeting with other arms of government to brainstorm on what to do with Oil Thieves is loughable. One should regard that meeting an ordirnary Tea Party to deceive Nigerians and the World. Curruption is a serious desease that had eaten very deep into the fabric of our Society. The degree escalated into mass looting of Nigerian Treasury. This translated into Oil Subsidy Scam, Pension Scam, direct and indirect stealing through deliberate inflation of Salaries, Emoluments and Allowances of Nigeria's Legislators. The former CJN had once indicted States' Judiciary of being the apron string of the States' Executives. A Federal High Court had just ruled that, that the Federal Government should not act on the report of the probe panel of the House of Reps. The earswhile governor accused of multivarious offences of unjust enrichment and charged to court by the EFCC was absoved by Nigerian Courts. This person was jailed by a British Court, and was branded a Common Thief. So, Justice is for the highest bidder in Nigeria. Curruption has been responsible for our problems of development, rising poverty, chronic economic degradation. That is why we have on our hands, Boko Haram, Militancy, Terrorism, Armed Roberies, Kidnapping and other anti-social activities. To solve these problems need serious approach, and so those Culprits in Oil Subsidy Scam, Pension Scam and others should be considered as COUPISTS who should face Treason Charges. Let there be special Court to Try these Offenders- They are economic Saboteurs and enemies of the State. The question of constitutional contraints should not be the issue, because, Where there is will, there is a way. Let those found bringing down this Nation face the music as in China. Then, President Jonathan's Transformation will have a meaning.
