“WHEN YOU FIGHT CORRUPTION, IT FIGHTS BACK” file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/Visitor/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/msohtml1/01/clip_image002. To understand the grossness of the injustice currently being perpetrated against former EFCC Chairman Nuhu Ribadu, one has to appreciate the depth of his achievements.Ribadu’s grievances are well known and do not need repetition.
BACKGROUND OF NUHU RIBADU Nuhu Ribadu was born on November 11, 1960 in Yola, Adamawa State. Prior to being appointed Chairman of the EFCC Ribadu served in the Nigerian police force.

Another piece of hagiography that adds no value to the Ribadu debacle!
Despite the protestations of “selective” prosecution, no one has ever alleged that any of those prosecuted by Ribadu was innocent or victim to a miscarriage of justice. So long as those prosecuted were genuinely guilty of the offences for which they were accused, does it matter whether or not they were political enemies of Obasanjo? The questions that need to be answered in respect of Ribadu are:
Did he actually prosecute anyone that was NOT corrupt?
Did he arrest or jail any innocent persons?
The thinking that is on display in the above quote is akin to the reasoning which says in effect that a military coup is justified because the stated objectives of its perpetrators is to rid the society of a corrupt and incompetent civilian administration and its sleazy leaders. That the author of the above article has failed to (forcefully) denounce the rampant lawlessness and impunity of Nuhu Ribadu and his fellow thugs at the EFCC speaks volumes.
The strange attempt to raise the spectacle of a military intervention around the self-inflicted wahala of the former EFCC chairman must be seen as quite unfortunate indeed. These Ribadu sidekicks should grow up! The world does not revolve around the indisciplined policeman from Adamawa.
