A Nigerian senator has asked the country’s senate to legalise
corruption, in spite of it being one of the major problems confronting
one of Africa’s largest economies.
Senator Yele Omogunwa (APC-Ondo South) spoke during plenary on
Wednesday while contributing to the upper chamber’s debate on the 2017
budget.
Noting that pass federal budgets have had little or no impacts on the
Nigerian people because of pervasive corruption, the senator stated
that legalising and liberalising it would be better.
