   By Remi Oyeyemi           “In a country where corruption is the major employer of labour, it takes a large injection of courage to stand out and be counted as an anti-corruption crusader. Ribadu is heavily injected with courage, perhaps an overdose of it, and he is suicidally (sic) wearing a battle gear against 419, bank frauds, fraud in the petroleum sector, pipeline vandalisation, and money laundering among several children and grandchildren of corruption.”   -    Simon Kolawole, Editor of Thisday

I would attribute it to less dramatic circumstances, although no less intriguing.
