 Copy Kenyan officials. Confess your sins, apologise and return stolen loot - Catholic Archbishop of Abuja Diocese, Rev Ignatius Kaigama, challenges Nigerian leaders


The Catholic Archbishop of Abuja Diocese, Most Rev Ignatius Kaigama, has challenged Nigerian leaders to publicly “confess their sins against the people and return all they have corruptly looted for Nigeria to 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.“
