Ijawland’s Early Christmas Gift to Nigeria from Bayelsa State!
by Paul I. Adujie (New York, United States) --- Exhilarating! Thrilling! And Invigorating! Are the adjectives that best describes the delightful news of the impeachment of DSP Alamieseigha, the fugitive and former governor of Bayelsa state in Nigeria! Good riddance to bad rubbish!
DSP Alams was a colossal embarrassment to Nigeria, to the decent people of Ijawland, Bayelsa and all of us! His putrid and filthy corrupt ways has finally ended his foray into Nigeria’s public life and thus, a precedent has been set!
Here is calling the Honorable Members of Plateau state house of assembly, they too, should shoo fugitive Joshua Chibi Dariye who in circumstances similar to DSP Alams, also jumped bail in London while facing similar criminal charges as DSP Alams.
A call should now go out to Nigerians and people of the world, to participate, support and encourage the audacious war against corruption that is being fought by the indomitable President Obasanjo. The time to sit and do nothing is past. Democracy is not a spectator sport. Riding Nigeria of corruption is not a spectator sport either.
The political leaders of Ijawland and Bayelsa state have just demonstrated commitment to Nigeria’s democracy and Nigeria’s progress. Ijawland and Bayelsa have now set a spectacular precedent for all Nigerians. The anti corruption train has since left the station.
Next stop Plateau state, then Edo state etc! The impeachment train is coming to a stop near you! Watch out! President Obasanjo is making believers out of those doubters and those who have been sitting on the fence regarding reform efforts in Nigeria
More thunderous applause the government of President Obasanjo and his anti corruption drive. We must now become more focused and more engaged. We must now join in these reforms and progressive efforts for the advancement of Nigeria. Nigeria’s development and greatness depends on all of us.
The message should now be loud and clear, there is a new dawn and it is a new day in Nigeria!
I could not have asked for a better Christmas present from Santa Claus! And I am sure majority of Nigerians world wide share my feelings on this.
God Bless Ijawland God Bless Bayelsa! God Bless Nigeria

This should not stop with Alamco alone.
EFCC should throw the book at everyone involved in the collapse of Nigeria, (from 1960 till now!), and I mean ALL OF THEM!!!
The categorization of these thieves is best derived from the line: "Son of thousand fathers, all bastards like them"
-- "The Good The Bad And The Ugly"

I am very happy to link unto this website, I hope a lot of Nigerians could sit and think and see where bribery and corruption is driving us to. Nigeria image has been tarnished by all these wicked individual ruling us in the name of making money for themselves and their families. Nothing is done in Nigeria on merit anymore, wherever you go people are demanding for money it is not hidden anymore it is now their right. But they have forgotten that one day we will all give account of our deeds on earth. We owe Nigeria alot because it is for all of us not just a fraction in the society. A lot of Destiny has been destroyed because of these wicked souls, no jobs for people, the country is in a bad state, the roads are bad, no tap water, no electricity. Every Nigerian are now ruling their domain or territory doing what they like because there is nobody to check them. Please let us keep praying for or nation because I know that there is going to be an end to this problem and I know it won't be too long. May God Bless Nigeria
