Trillion Dollar Scandal

Dear people who care about ending corruption and the exploitation of African people:

Kindly read the words below from http://one.org, and if you feel led, sign the petition too. If the petition is successful, it could make a big difference to a lot of people.

Right now, a few of the world’s biggest oil, gas and mining companies are fighting hard to keep some very big secrets.

They are lobbying against proposed European laws that would lift the lid on trillions of dollars paid to governments across Africa – secret payments which can sometimes get into the wrong hands. This money should be going into vital services like schools, health clinics and roads, not into the pockets of a few.

Join me in calling on European leaders to stand up to corporate lobbyists and pass strong laws that could help to lift hundreds of millions of out poverty:

Corruption deprives nations of their future. Join me and help put an end to this trillion dollar scandal.

Thanks!
