The report that former Senate President, Olusola Saraki, could be delisted from the coming National Merit Awards speaks to how much the federal government under President Mohammadu Buhari has defamed the excellence recognition exercise.

The National Awards, though, have been abused since December 31, 1983, when Alhaji Shehu Shagari’s led administration was toppled by Major General Mohammadu Buhari and his military junta. That abuse of the awards has been kept to date by successive administrations.

Does any past/present military heads of state and civilian leaders holding these National Awards worth the titles they have appropriated to selves? The National Awards shouldn’t be a right to public office holders. The Award should be reasonably given to Nigerians based on credibility/merit.

Name them, who among the packs of past and present leaders is worth it. These are people who looted the Nigerian treasuries at all levels of governance. None of them with these awards merit and qualified to receive these national awards.

Are they not ashamed that National awards are given to thieves? All of them who served at different levels as military heads of state, presidents, vice presidents, governors, deputy governors, ministers, senators, lawmakers, commissioners, Councillors, and business people who front shady business for politicians don’t worth any of these National Awards in my opinion.

If Buhari’s led administration decides to honour those who wrecked the nation then it means the National Awards are useless and have no value in my opinion. Nigeria is a crazy title nation. The more looting of public resources, the more honour and recognition they receive in Nigeria.

If those holding National Awards in Nigeria are people without integrity then it means the National Awards are nothing but scams. All of them who brag about their ill-gotten wealth are flaunting stolen money from the people. None of them merits or qualifies to receive these National Awards.

It is time to stop these national Awards and state Justices of peace (JPs) since the motive for these awards is defeated. At the state levels, Justices of Peace (JPs) are given to political thugs and violent criminals who aid politicians to rig elections.

Socrates, Shakespeare and other philosophers/thinkers, how many awards did they receive when they were living? They are far greater and their names still exist. King Solomon as written in the Bible was rated as the richest man in the world but today he is being recognised not for his vast wealth but his wisdom and Knowledge.

Jesus Christ whose name is called million times within one second was without any award by the Jews and the Roman authorities. What matters in this world is not the amount of ill-gotten wealth but the impacts on society. Today Governor Ifeanyi Okowa is donating ill-gotten money to Churches but they are all useless because they are stolen wealth that ought to develop Delta state. If he likes let him live in the church with his atrocities. God hates stealing and the deprivation of the common man.

National Awards shouldn’t be applied for. If the Federal government means well they should collate the names of those that merit National Awards without them knowing.

Those who have contributed to National growth in every sector and not these same politicians have brought shame to Nigeria. All of the braggings about their wealth are stolen public money.
