12166312265?profile=originalI've often heard Nigerians say, "you cant make it in Nigeria with being a corrupt citizen; in Nigeria, honesty doesn't pay". 
I often laugh when I hear such because it's obvious to me that people who believe such crap aren't using their heads. Because if they were, they would know that just isn't true.

Why would I say that? It's simple.Picture this:
When your car gets bad, which mechanic do you take it to? Is it the honest one or the corrupt one? When you are selecting a bank, is it the one that has a reputation  for fraud or the one that has integrity? When you want to buy a car, do you go to the corrupt car dealer or the one that will be honest with you?When you want to buy drugs, do you go to the pharmacy that has a reputation for selling fake drugs or the one that is known for selling only quality drugs?Even a bad man wants a good wife and a corrupt politician looks for those with integrity he can trust. 
I could go on and on giving your more examples.
So you see integrity is even in high demand in Nigeria because it is scarce.So it's absurd to say that you cant make it in Nigeria without being corrupt.
