Corruption: Let’s talk about it - Punch Newspapers

Our talking point, not prayer point, this time is about corruption, which has remained not only intractable but continues to spread with aided gloves of both Nigerians and foreign allies. The last talking point, and no open indication of discussion yet, was on electricity, while the next and, of course, the last one will be on political economy. At his inauguration in 2015, the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari , warned that if we failed to kill corruption, it would kill us.

On my way back to the airport, I asked the taxi driver if he noticed the execution of the CCTV installation and he enlightened me that the project had been awarded over a year ago without execution but, with Buhari elected, the contractors had to move to site to avoid going to jail after the swearing-in.

Corruption generally reduces economic growth as it retards long-term foreign and domestic investments, promotes inflation, depreciates national currency, reduces expenditures for education and health, increases military expenditures, misallocates talent to rent-seeking activities
