Migwi,These are the leaders we want.
those who have scandals that ensure we can debate for hours on end about them.
is it bad coz she has stolen lands worth billions and you and i have stolen just milk or staplers, worth shillings, from our employers/workplaces?
a) Two wrongs don’t make a right. Every crime is a wrong and should be prosecuted and duly punished.
b) Some wrongs are so monumentally huge that they end up costing the tax payer huge damage. Retribution for such crimes should reflect their enormity.
Majority of those who steal milk and fullscaps are very poor folks. Most of those who steal billions are well educated, well heeled and influential people. Their crimes can’t be be equal in any known measurables. Their punishments therefore need to be commensurate to their crimes.
c) Our judiciary and Investigators are very poorly equipped in the art of Tracing at Common Law and in Equity. This weakness enables the well heeled get away scot-free with huge thefts and this ultimately discourages the populace by creating the illusion that ‘it’s ok to steal since everybody else is getting away with it’.
