Buhari on Corrupt Oil Companies

The foreign oil companies bribing politicians uhn, making them turn a blind eye to environmental and social consequences of oil exploration. This sound like a good theme for a Hollywood movie to me. An article in the Independent about Gen. Buhari's statement on corrupt foreign oil companies. Sometimes I wish he was not a former military guy.
A leading candidate in Nigeria's upcoming presidential elections has attacked the country's foreign-dominated oil industry for fuelling corruption in the country.
"Corruption has been worse with oil because oil has brought more money," said the former Nigerian military strongman General Muhammadu Buhari, who is running a presidential campaign based on an anti-corruption platform."Now corruption has eaten away at our industries and society generally."
