Unlike Ikoyi whistle blower, I must collect my 5% before whistle blowing
The government should pay up the whistle blower if it wants the war on corruption to be taken seriously.
Is half bread really better than none? The Ikoyi whistle blower surely doesn't think so.
The
whistle blower is not joking with his money. He helped the FG recover
N13bn from the Ikoyi apartment. Now, he wants the money promised to him,
N860m. This is his 5% commission for being a good citizen.
Two
plus two doesn't necessarily equal four in Nigeria. The FG plans to
'swerve' this whistleblower. First of all, it was said that if given all
that money he won't be mentally stable. Well, money has the ability to
make people mad but right here is the principle that matters.
These days you have to shine your eye before whistle blowing
The excuse of mental instability did not work, so the FG is now throwing fine prints and clauses to the deal. Instead of N860m, the government is offering him N325m. Haba! This is not even half of the original sum. The way the government is pricing this commission is not fair.
It's
not everybody that can blow a whistle. You need more than big cheeks to
blow this type of whistle. You need liver. This whistle blower has
correct liver and he should be given all the money he deserves.
A
Nigerian that blows a whistle to the authorities about a large sum of
money in an Ikoyi apartment is a morally upright Nigerian. Lord knows if
I see, a large sum of money in an apartment in Lagos, I would collect
my own cut before I blow any whistle.
Everyone
with a sixth sense in Nigeria knows that you have to deal with the
government with a sharp mind. As they still say on the streets, "cunny man die and na cunny man bury am."
If
the FG doesn't give the whistle blower his commission, future whistle
blowers would take their cut of the loot before alerting the government.
It could be worse, people will run away with looted stash hidden all
over the country.
