Which Way Nigeria

I knew it, I knew it and I said it. Last week I blogged about the 17.6 Billion Naira release by our President to assist flood victims, I titled it To The Embezzlers (see the post HERE), begging people not to kolorbi the money meant for the flood victims.

My dear WAG readers ooo, the kolorbing has started. Big comma don enter the money, e don get K-leg.

This is what I read on different dailies and am not surprised, I expected it to happen. Its Nigeria na.

Vanguard-
Delta Govt Official Removed For Alleged Embezzlement Of Flood Victims' Funds.
Asaba- A staff of Bureau for Special Duties in Delta State has been removed from the Illah Camp for flood victims in Delta State for allegedly embezzling funds meant for the victims.
The order of his removal was given by Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan who also directed that the suspect refunds such fund without further delay.

The Guardian-
Chairman NMA & Others Held Hostage.
In Abarikpo camp in Ahoada East Council of Rivers State at the weekend, the flood victims held the State Chairman of the Nigeria Medical Association (NMA), Dr. Ibitrokoemi Korubo and 20 others who were on voluntary service to the camp hostage.
The Guardian gathered that the victims' action followed alleged neglect of the camp by government officials and other relevant authorities.

The next article is my favorite, the flood victims sharpened up.

The Guardian-
'All We Are Saying, Give Us Cash".
Ebonyi State flood victims have told Governor Martin Elechi to give them whatever relief the government plans for them in cash and nothing but cash. They have grumbled that something may happen to the largesse promised by the Federal Government and they would only hear about it without really getting any.
The grumbling got so loud that the governor decided to invite representatives of the victims to Government House in Abakaliki.

The Governor disclosed “immediately we shall start discussing with the State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA,) Council Chairmen, Coordinators, on how to channel the assistance to you
“Everybody says he or she wants cash; we will give you the cash.

 Correct, am so feeling this Ebonyi people because 'sit down look' na dog name. Before they stood up to say they want cash so, they must have seen something strong and don't want to take any chances of the money not reaching them. I pray the Governor is able to implement the cash principle for them.

Na wa for Nigeria. Which way are we going in this country, there is nothing we do without corruption being involved. I just pray that this flood victims get the help they deserve.

INFO OF THE DAY: MTN Nigeria Donates Relief Materials To Flood Disaster Victims.

The relief materials, valued at several millions of Naira, include beddings, cooking utensils, food items and many others.

I end today's post singing this song. "which way Nigeria... which way Nigeria... which way to goooo, I love my fatherland, I want to know..... which way Nigeria........ is heading to".

Stay Sharp,
Warri Girl.
