Nigerian Pagans Are More Honest and Transparent Than Nigerian Christians

The irony of corruption in Nigeria is the complicity of Nigerian churches and mosques.
They are among the largest beneficiaries of the misappropriated funds stolen by corrupt Nigerian office holders and contractors.
The fact is Nigerian pagans are more honest and transparent than the so called Christians and Muslims.

Nigerians fear the Juju than they fear the Almighty God.

Most of the indicted and convicted corrupt public officials and their accomplices claim to be Christians and Muslims and I have seen their pastors, bishops and Imams collecting fat offerings, tithes, donations and gifts from them. Then asking God to have mercy on them and forgive them, instead of warning them as Jesus Christ warned "Repent or Perish!".
They are afraid of warning them and calling them crooks and rogues, lest they frighten them away and lose their financial contributions and other benefits.

The rich are honoured with knighthood and given other titles in the church.
Cultists have been honoured by many churches in Nigeria. They are the chief launchers and chairmen and leading ladies of the fund raising committees.

I have since passed a vote of No Confidence in Nigerian Christians and Muslims, because I have not seen any difference in their behaviour outside the church and mosque when compared to the pagans.
The only difference is they go to church and mosque while the pagans go to the shrine.

The dishonesty, hypocrisy and selfish opportunism among Nigerian Christians and Muslims are responsible for the perpetuation of corruption in Nigeria, from the hawkers of fake products on the street to the embezzlers of revenue allocations in the corridors of power.

From Lagos to Abuja to Calabar to Enugu to Bonny Island, I have been there and seen corruption in high places and low places.

The metamorphosis of corruption in Nigeria can be seen in the parade of their ignorance in the masquerade of arrogance. But as Jesus Christ said, "by their fruits you shall know them", their deeds indoors and outdoors show their true characters, regardless of their lip service and eye service in their churches and mosques.

My duty is to witness and give my eye witness accounts in my books like the Chronicles of the Holy Bible.
