Nigerians in Germany Protest Against Corruption By Government Officials.

Nigerians in diaspora are not leaving home based Nigerians to their fates alone,those in Germany recently took it upon themselves to come out and protest against the massive corruption we are currently enmeshed in,especially by our leaders who enjoy licking filthy lucre.They also protested against the state of insecurity in the country and the terror meted out on the Northern populace by the dreaded Boko Haram sect.

The protest which started by 10am had the German police on ground all through the protest which lasted for four hours. Fliers which served as cahier de doleance were distributed to passers-by and the embassy callers. The fliers read:
 “168 Million Nigerians are under siege. At the mercy of a reckless, fascist government that has made corruption its deadly official policy. The Nigerian people demand sanctions and travel bans on political officers and global attention to the economic terrorism. There are 100 million destitute Nigerians while government officials loot billions of US Dollars every year. We call for global attention to the crises to the largest African nation and a very important nation in Africa and the world. What affects one man, affects all men”.
The group of Nigerians also bore placards with messages like: ‘It is easier to find a needle in a dark room than to find 20 Billion Dollars in Nigeria’; ‘Boko Haram kills innocent citizens, Nigerian government celebrates centenary. Hundreds of Nigerians (Including school children) dead within a week’.
