The way and manna politics are run in Nigeria is a thing of concern to many as the game can be played at the detriment of the govern. It is all about getting what you want by all means and at all cost mindless of what the electorates feels.
As if that is not enough they can go to any length to defend the power when they eventually acquired it.
On several occasion some of them who allegedly loots the country's treasury to foreign countries, caught in the process have taken different forms to escape from the law enforcement agencies. One of them some years back dressed like a woman to escape through the sea back to the country after steeling hug amount of money belonging to his state where he was granted pardon by the same state.. Others have gone on exile and never wanting to probe of their loot.
New method of going to law court.
The new method adopted recently by these politicians are the method of pretending to be sick whenever they are facing trial and appearing in court on stretcher.
One of the former famous political party spoke persons still attends court today for trial on stretcher.
Just recently a senator who was alleged of arming some youth for thuggery in his state was invited by the police to answer questions in the court refused, but eventually he was arrested and was taken to his state. When he discovered the police were taking him to his state he deliberately jump out of the moving police vehicle and got his legs injured and was hospitalised. Despite that the police insisted he must come to the magistrate court in his state to answer to the allegation. While he was on hospital bed he was picked to his preffered court on a stretcher to answered to the charge but immediately he was granted bail he was rearrested and was taken to his state by air where the crime was allegedly commited to face the court.
This is the country where politician value their power and position more than the citizen.
