Bola A. Akinterinwa In Nigeria, dishonesty and fraud always take precedence over honesty and forthrightness in political governance. The foundation of political governance in Nigeria was largely predicated on untruthfulness in attitude, self-denial in policy making, chicanery and fraud in nation-building. Even though the founding fathers of Nigeria, Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, etc, are said to have been more forthright in their governance of the country and their regions, there is no disputing the fact that collaboration between and among them was more driven by mutual suspicions regional interests, than by any other factor. In fact, the issue of promotion of Hausa-Fulani interests to the detriment of the interests of others, was raised as far back as 1961 in the Parliament.
