"content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is a book called The Trouble with Nigeria, where Chinua Achebe said he had recently read in the newspaper that President Shehu Shagari had said that corruption in Nigeria had not reached alarming proportions. He said that “anybody who says a statement like this is either a fool, a crook, or does not live in Nigeria.” Then, he said: “I know Shehu Shagari; for sure he is not a fool; and I know he is not a crook; therefore, he does not live in Nigeria!” I know Sen. Yusuf Haji is not a fool, he is not a crook; he does not live in Kenya! Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you can take judicial notice of how many public administrators have gone to jail for stealing money meant for the poor. It is common knowledge. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
