Letter From The President (XXII): Corruption? Prove it!

Fri, 17 Oct 2003 Source: Fukuor, J. A.

Countrymen and women, against people and bootlicking loyalists,
I have just learnt that many of you think that there is a lot of corruption in our Sikaman. Well, I am very disappointed that you think corruption is still rife in this country even though I have been shouting my voice hoarse with ‘zero tolerance for corruption’ wherever I go, whomever I meet and whatever I do. If nothing at all, the ‘zero tolerance for corruption’ proclamation is a tune most of you adults should sing and use it to remind you of those your kiddy days in the kindergarten. Why then do you reward my creative ingenuity by telling Transparency International that you think corruption is as high in our country now as those days when Jerry Boom, Semorley and Kitsita were plundering the country?
