In 2006, the EFCC Chairman Nuhu Ribadu, came before the Nigerian Senate and listed 5 most corrupt governors. They include:

1. Orji Kalu, Abia State

2. Ahmed Bola Tinubu, Lagos State

3. Ahmed Sani yerima, Zamfara State

4. George Akume, Benue State

5. Chimaroke Nnamani, Enugu State

Today, in 2026, 20 years after.

Orji Kalu = Senator
Bola Ahmed Tinubu = President
Ahmed Sani Yerima = Senator
George Akume = Senator now Appointed by Tinubu as SGF.

Chimaroke = Senator

The then EFCC Chairman Nuhu Ribadu who made the list but failed to prosecute them, is now appointed by Tinubu to be National Security Adviser.

The Senate is currently headed by another EFCC regular, Senator Godswill Akpabio.

Which Way Nigeria? This can never be a serious nation.
