Bush Gives Nigeria $$ To Fight AIDS

I just heard on the radio that the Bush administration has given a couple of millions (I missed the exact figure) to Nigeria to help in the fight against HIV/AIDS. I was glad to hear it but then again I began to think how low we can sink sometimes in that country in the quest to enrich ourselves. I do pray that the money goes to fight this horrendous plague but I know my people...somebody with no fear of God in them is going to skim that money off the top and from the bottom. God dey, sha...lets hope they do the right thing. Stealing contract money is one thing but stealing money meant to save lives is another.

Nobody go chop the money (like b4 again) because the fear of EFCC is the beginning of wisdom.

I agree. Some of you are obviously not paying much attention to what's been going on in Naija on a day to day basis in the past several months.. The EFCC has been given virtual free reign to shine bright upon the darken terrain of Naija and the thieving affluent pests are scampering and hiding out like roaches and rats when the lights come on..

Week in and week out... more and more leaders are jumping on the EFCC band waggon, publicly threatening any and all members under their leadership with dismissal and prosecution if they are found being involved in any form of corruption, while other leaders are being dropped left and right upon being charged with acts of misconduct in the past and present.

Even the big fish himself, IBB, has been said to have been forced to show his mug before the EFCC, Nigeria's own FBI.. Just recently, the entire Plateau State budget was frozen by the organization, do to do to discrepancies with the states spending spending habits, and other financial discrepancies.

That's very nice of them, and I hope the money would be used for this cause.
