Working in Nigeria. In Kano. We interviewed someone very important. First time I was given the brown envelope. I opened it. Saw the US dollars, gave it back. Gave some excuse why I can’t accept the money. It’s happened more times in Nigeria, it’s normal there

Every sectors in Nigeria have elements of corruption in one way or the other, they will always talk about yahoo boys but the damaging they are causing Nigeria throughout the world is more than what yahoo boys are doing to us. They should lead us to the right path without taking any from of bribery.

  6. I really support your findings concerning Nigeria.
    Most persons here don’t see any thing wrong in giving kick backs. The give bribe and take bribe at will even at the full glare of everyone.
    Travel on Nigeria roads and see what the police officers do on the roads. They collect bribe from motorists and even go up to the extent of killing the ones that refused to give them bribe
    Go to the various offices in the country and see for yourself how they take bribes to perform ordinary tasks
    They even give bribes to journalists donthat they will ask them the choice of questions they desire to be asked

  7. You said they bribe you with American currency and you can not tell us what they bribe you for, aside that. Bribery is everywhere but in Nigeria is our blood.
