Abstract
Corruption ridden exploitation of the natural resources, especially oil deposit, due to visionary leadership has been the major cause of colossal economic loss in the country. This was more glaring during the General Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida and General Sani Abacha's military dictatorship. This accounts for why, particularly, economic development in the well-endowed Eastern Niger Delta area has left not much to be desired. It is not only these case with the Eastern Niger Delta area, but with the entire nation because corruption has seemingly become our national life.
