Confess Your Sins, Apologise And Return Stolen Loot

Rev Ignatius Kaigama
Most Rev Ignatius Kaigama, the Catholic Archbishop of Abuja Diocese, has appealed to Nigerian leaders to confess their acts of injustice and corruption so that the country can be a better place.
The cleric who threw the challenge in his message delivered at St. Charles Lwanga Catholic Parish in Apo, Abuja, on Sunday July 21, drew reference to the open confession and apology by a Kenyan official in a recent video clip in which he promised to return all properties and money he acquired through corrupt means.
While delivering is sermon, the cleric said;
“How I wish in Nigeria our present and past political leaders will willingly come forward with such courage to tell the truth, and like Zacchaeus to honestly confess their acts of injustice and corruption committed against the ordinary Nigerians citizens.
Just imagine the impact, if beginning from our Local Government Chairmen, State Assembly members, commissioners, governors, House of Representative members, Senators, Ministers, Presidents, leaders of various security arms, the Judiciary, etc past and present, they accept to make this type of open confession and express their willingness to return whatever they have taken obviously not as part of their legitimate earnings but corruptly stolen from the people they were/are elected or appointed to serve.
Should this be honestly and transparently done, we will never need to borrow billions of Dollars from anywhere; hunger and poverty as currently experienced will find Nigeria a hostile place to exist, and our social infrastructure and amenities will be competing with those in the so-called “first world.” Our embassies around the world, will be overcrowded as foreigners will be clamouring and competing for visas to come to Nigeria.
Our Governors and Ministers don’t need to gallivant abroad in the name of wooing investors. Nigerians will be proud and happy to walk anywhere in the world with their heads held very high.
May God give the political leaders in charge of our patrimony and indeed all Nigerians, whether high or low, the heart to always work for the common good.
Through the intercession of Our Mother Mary and St. Joseph her spouse, may our leaders imitate the servant-leadership of Christ and lead the people entrusted to their care in the way God wants.”
Kaigama said he decided to transcribe the video clip of the Kenyan official and reproduce for his sermon because it depicts what true God-fearing leaders whether political, traditional, or religious should do or be. He said such leaders are sensitive to the needs of people and not the people wallowing in poverty while the few rich swim in the ocean of luxury at the expense of the poor citizens.
The Kenyan official had said;
“Good evening the people of Kenya. The constitution of Kenya of 2010, article 1, sub article 1, says: all sovereign power belongs to the people and shall only be exercised in accordance with the constitution. Today I tender my resignation as a cabinet secretary in the government of Kenya. I want to offer my heart-felt apology to the people of Kenya for the greed, high-handedness, selfishness, arrogance, nepotism, tribalism and all the bad things that we have done to you the in last two years. When we came to power, we called ourselves shareholders and decided that most Kenyans are not part of the government; are no longer part of the state and do not have any human rights. We went ahead and received bribes from all over the world, and especially, from Dubai.
We bought very expensive watches, some as expensive as one million Kenya’s Shillings equivalence in Dollars. We bought belts worth 50,000 shillings, and we made sure that citizens know how expensive we have become.
In a country where poor families cannot pay their children’s school fees, we were wallowing in luxury. I want to sincerely apologize and I want to say today that I am ready to give out all the bribes that I have received for the last two years; all the property that I have now, which can be traced back to the bribes I have received, will be surrendered to the state tomorrow, early in the morning.
Should I get a chance to serve the people of Kenya again, I will stop the greed, I will stop the arrogance. But most importantly, I will be accountable to the people of Kenya. To the Police High Command, the Inspector General, who also tendered his resignation, I want to urge you to take Kenyans to all the graves where the bodies are hidden. It is time for accountability. Thank you, dear Kenyans.”

According to the airline’s Director of Public and Consumer Protection, Bimbo Oladeji, the aircraft had been cleared for take-off, and during the take-off roll, a loud bang was heard, signalling the loss of two tyres.

12-year-old Girl Who Suffocated Her Cousin And Cleaned Up The Scene Before She Repositioned The Victim’s Body Is Charged With Murder
![](https://spazr.com.ng/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/12-year-old-Girl-Who-Suffocated-Her-Cousin-And-Cleaned-Up-The.jpg)
A 12-year-old girl who was caught on camera suffocating her cousin while she slept is now facing murder charges.
According to ABC News, a security camera recorded the killing, inside the bedroom they shared on July 15 in Humboldt, Tennessee, the county prosecutor said.
The recording shows the older child using bedding to suffocate her cousin as the younger girl slept in the top bunk, Gibson District Attorney Frederick Agee’s statement said. After the child died, “the juvenile cleaned up the victim and repositioned her body,” Agee said.
A relative told WREG-TV in Memphis that the girls had been arguing over an iPhone after coming from out of town to stay with their grandmother.
The girl was charged with first-degree murder and tampering with evidence after authorities obtained the video last Wednesday.
“I consider this to be one of the most disturbing violent acts committed by either an adult or juvenile that my office has prosecuted,” Agee wrote in the statement.
He said he would petition a judge to prosecute the girl, who turns 13 later this month, in adult court, which would allow for “a lengthier sentence, whether that will be through incarceration or supervision with court-ordered conditions.”

Layla Ali Othman, the wife of a member of the House of Representatives from Plateau State, Yusuf Gagdi, has fired back at those attacking her husband for gifting his daughter, Aisha, a brand new Sport Utility Vehicle after she graduated from secondary school.
The lawmaker’s grand gesture has generated mixed reactions on social media with many criticizing him for gifting the teenager an expensive car amidst Nigeria’s current economic challenges.
Layla, who is one of Gagdi’s wives and Aisha’s stepmother, however said that they didn’t buy the car with constituency money or funds allocated for their people.
She stated that they are proud of Aisha’s performance in school, hence the reason the lawmaker decided to gift her the car.
“If you want to give information, you should get your facts right. It’s a 2021 model. And yes, it’s equally expensive, and yes, we are proud of our child as she did very well in school,” she wrote.
“And yes, we bought her a car because we can afford it. But no, the car wasn’t bought with constituency money or any government allocated funds for the people. If you don’t believe, kindly argue with your ancestors.”

President of the United States of America, Joe Biden has officially endorsed his Vice, Kamala Harris, as the new Democratic presidential nominee, for the 2024 polls.
Biden made the announcement on his official Instagram page on Sunday, shortly after he withdrew from the United States November presidential election.

“My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made.
“Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats—it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this,” he added.

BREAKING: Dangote to Sell Refinery to NNPC Amid Disputes with Government
![](https://spazr.com.ng/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Screenshot-2024-07-21-at-21-42-56-Dangote-Offers-to-Sell-Refinery-to-NNPC-Amid-Disputes-with-Government-operanewsapp.png)
Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, is willing to sell his multi-billion-dollar oil refinery to NNPC Limited, Nigeria’s state-owned energy company, amid unresolved differences with the federal government....Read More
The 650,000 barrel-per-day refinery, which began operations last year after a decade of construction, has been facing challenges, including difficulties in sourcing crude oil from international producers.
NNPC, which has a supply deal with the refinery, has only delivered 6.9 million barrels of oil since last year, forcing the refinery to seek alternative sources from countries like Brazil and the US.
Dangote has expressed frustration with the obstacles his refinery is facing, stating that he is ready to let go of the project if it will benefit the country.
“Let them (NNPCL) buy me out and run the refinery the best way they can. They have labelled me a monopolist. That’s an incorrect and unfair allegation, but it’s OK. If they buy me out, at least, their so-called monopolist would be out of the way,” Dangote said in a recent interview.
The interview was granted on Sunday to Premium Times.
Dangote, who has long dominated Nigeria’s cement, salt, and sugar industries, ventured into oil and gas, a move that has proven challenging.
The refinery cost $19 billion to build, more than double the initial estimate. It promises to reduce Nigeria’s reliance on imported fuel and save up to 30% of the foreign exchange spent on imports.
It is understood that the refinery, set to release its first batch of petrol to the Nigerian market in August, has been operating at just over half its capacity due to difficulties in sourcing crude oil from international producers.
“As you probably know, I am 67 years old. In less than three years, I will be 70. I need very little to live the rest of my life. I can’t take the refinery or any other property or asset to my grave. Everything I do is in the interest of my country,” Dangote said.
“This refinery can help resolve the problem, but it seems some people are uncomfortable with me in the picture. So I am ready to let go, let the NNPC buy me out and run the refinery. At least the country will have high-quality products and create jobs,” he added.
Dangote’s decision comes after facing several obstacles, which he believes validate the caution advised by friends and associates when he invested billions into Nigeria’s economy.
“Four years ago, one of my very wealthy friends began to invest his money abroad. I disagreed with him and urged him to rethink his action in the interest of his country. He blamed his action on policy inconsistencies and interest groups. That friend has been taunting me in the past few days, saying he warned me and that he has been proven right,” Dangote said.
Devakumar Edwin, Vice President of Oil and Gas at Dangote Group, recently alleged that the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) is permitting the importation of substandard fuel into the country. In response, NMDPRA’s CEO, Farouk Ahmed, countered that diesel produced by Dangote’s refinery and other similar facilities, such as Waltersmith and Aradel, contains high levels of sulfur, potentially damaging vehicle engines and the environment.
However, during a recent tour of the Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Dangote Fertiliser Limited complex by members of the House of Representatives, Aliko Dangote disputed the regulator’s claims. Lab tests conducted during the tour revealed that Dangote’s diesel contains a mere 87.6 ppm of sulfur, significantly lower than the 1800 ppm and 2000 ppm found in imported samples. Dangote challenged the regulator to conduct an impartial comparison of the quality of his refinery’s products versus imported ones, advocating for a fair assessment to determine the best interests of Nigeria.
Also during the tour, Dangote announced that he would halt his investment in Nigeria’s steel industry to avoid accusations of monopoly. ...Read More
