@BUKOLASARAKI: FRAUD AND THE PSYCHOLOGY OF MISREPRESENTATION.
Nigeria we hail thee as a nation fraught with high drama and orgies of fraudulent misadventures beyond any sane human comprehension.
A nation with humongous misrepresentation of information and data warehousing at all levels either in government, private enterprises, professional bodies, and at individual niveaus respectively, which leaves one to wonder if there is something in our psychological nucleaus that is making us behave the way we do.
Humans are the only creatures that have values empirically speaking and those values cognitively prevent us from doing things we have internalised as bad, wrong.
My sincere opinion therefore is that no criminologist or socio-psychologist even babalawo who share a keen interest in the epistem of understanding fraud/fraudulent behaviours can succinctly decipher or find clarifications for this paradigm of menace in our clime.
Simply because of it's magnitude and frequencies, the rule of identifying is not just available within the context of good, bad, and evil, those ethical codes have been rendered insignificant in our clime to the extent that we are about to reach the point of no return, a bottomless pit of socio moral value recognition. A la Code of Conduct Bureau.
Mike Okiro's case is fresh in our memory and that sums up the bottomless pit analogy, wherein the Code of Conduct Bureau with their recent decision dumped Nigeria, when a man who was found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation and improprietness was only given a slap on the wrist, go and sin no more, the kind of mindset that has created the ugly and messy ethical situation in Nigeria.
Note: I am not blaming Code of Conduct Bureau for all our socio-moral and ethical ills here.
@Bukolasaraki narratives of fraud and misrepresentation as reflected in the senate rules forgery case, and now the fraudulent misrepresentation on assets declaration form as presented to us by the Code of Conduct Bureau only buttress my previous claim in earlier article that his fraudulent machination is boundaryless.
The limitlessness of his criminal prodigiousness would take a magician to decipher the kind of inherent genie in such a serial fraudster, cognitive social psychology might say he has a blind conscience another way of saying he does not think about the consequencies of his actions or inactions.
This is not an alibi for him under our legal system, since he has written a rebuttal to the claim made by the Code of Conduct Bureau, so he knows what he is/was doing and the consequencies of his actions.
We may also say that he thinks he is above the law since most fraudulent colleagues before him were never prosecuted and even when that happened they were only given a slap on the wrist, go and sin no more Mike Okiro et al.

What is most disgusting is the mafialike granting of perpectual injunctions by corrupt judges in our clime, wherein law enforcement agents are preventend from investigating or arresting corrupt politicians or government officials thereby frustrating the whole process of prosecution.
@Bukolasaraki et al must not be allowed to use the judiciary in the abovementioned mannerism.
He must be arrested forthwith, the war on corruption must gain momentum @ICPC & @efcc @policeng.
This kind of psychological configuration must stop forthwith, beginning with the Code of Conduct Bureau taken prompt action and pro-active in their methodology in prosecuting fraudulent government officials to it's logical legal conclusion.
NO MORE SLAP ON THE WRIST OR GO AND SIN NO MORE MENTALITY.
