The rot in the Banking Sector - 'A Thief and a Whiz kid'

The private sector is just as rotten, Salisu Suleiman writes:

The kind of theft that has taken place in our banks in the four short years of post consolidation has left civil servants and other public sector workers looking like angels. The entire banking sector workforce is less than 100,000. A few crooks among them have, at the risk of generalization nearly crippled the entire Nigerian economy. Add to them the plethora of crooked stock broking firms, insurance companies and other private sector operators you wonder the sorts of underhand deals that go on virtually unreported.
A civil servant that steals is a corrupt official. A businessman that steals 10 times as much is a whiz kid.
