What many Nigerians grow up knowing is the high propensity of the elites to steal or embezzle the commonwealth of most Nigerians.

From the local wards to the federal parliament, the norm is to crave for money to siphone from the national treasury.

The resources that the FG, State Governments and even the LGs claim aren't enough to ease the pains of the populace are steadily, but slowly stolen from the treasury. What worries many Nigerians is, "What do these politicians steal for - aren't they rich already?"

In the instance when politicians that have the tendency to get money from the people by all means; now look for every means to give the same people money - one only wonders why? Why this? Why now?

Are Nigerians simply collecting these monies gullibly in ignorance the strategic intents of these politicians or they a receiving back what was stolen from them? I believe that time and posterity will tell. Thanks for reading this post, please share with your peer group and friends for more conversations.
