DIS, DPP, DCEC, BPS, JUDICIARY… WHAT’S THE TRUTH?

Magatwe a mantsi golo fa. What should the nation believe with so much that our security agencies are claiming? Gatwe the DIS has so many corrupt officers who are now using the ‘threat-to-national-security’ mantra to want to search for files that implicate them at the DCEC with the intension of destroying the evidence. Gatwe the DIS is being used by the country’s leadership to help kill off potential cases of corruption. Gatwe the DCEC and it’s top officials are withholding files or sitting on files that could help unearth corruption in the country. Gatwe DCEC is uncooperative on handing files that implicate the previous regime and their associates in corrupt dealings. Gatwe the current BPS top brass is sympathetic to those who appointed them and are thus helping conceal evidence of corruption by those under investigation. Gatwe the DPP has inside officers who are helping kill off corruption and economic crime cases by tempering with evidence and deliberately tainting investigations. It doesn’t end there…. Gatwe even at the judiciary, some men and women there are aligned in this web of inappropriate dealings and are itching to be the ones handling cases. This is why our leaders can make utterances that they can’t trust some judges – a definite acknowledgement that they know who is with them and who is not. Now with the recent saga of sealed DCEC offices by DIS and the DCEC asking the judiciary to ensure the police guard the files to prevent them getting into the hands of the DIS, one wonders who we really should trust. How do we trust what the DIS says? How do we trust what the DCEC says? How do we even trust that the police or the courts will be clean in their guarding of files? Such is the state of our nation, where leaders are fighting their own battles and the rest have to watch, cheer and jeer. gatwe re gorogile jang fa?
