The lonely fight against Nigerian corruption

Nigeria's top corruption fighter is forced to take a year's sabbatical:

Nuhu Ribadu, who has spearheaded Nigeria's attempts to combat financial crime, is involved in the prosecution of seven former state governors...Nigeria's police chief Mike Okiro called a press conference to say there were no ulterior motives behind the move, and that Mr Ribadu had been ordered to attend a one-year policy and strategic studies course in central Nigeria.

A government official says the course will "make him a better officer." The man was clearly in need of some reeducation.
