Buhari won’t spare anyone found to be corrupt- Rotimi Amaechi says
Minister
of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, has said President Buhari will not spare anyone
involved in acts of corruption, not even any member of his cabinet. Amaechi
said this when he delivered a keynote speech at a Cambridge University
symposium yesterday September 5th.
“As someone who has been
in active politics for more than 30 years, I have learnt that many
well-intended reforms are possible only if the leader can offer the requisite
leadership and muster the right political will.
In my country, since our President, Muhammadu Buhari was elected, he did not leave anyone in doubt that the fight against corruption will not only be taken seriously but will form a cardinal plank of his policy direction.
In my country, since our President, Muhammadu Buhari was elected, he did not leave anyone in doubt that the fight against corruption will not only be taken seriously but will form a cardinal plank of his policy direction.
So far, he has made several pronouncements that
set the tone of his commitment to strengthening anti-corruption agencies to go
after anyone who has questions to answer. The president’s resolve was enough to
signal all of us, members of his cabinet and the citizenry, that an end has
come for the old ways of doing things. Currently, many people who have been
indicted in one form of corrupt practice or another are being prosecuted in our
courts. That, I believe is the way to show leadership and take responsibility.
Our president has stopped at nothing to demonstrate that whosoever is caught in
corruption related crimes will not be spared" he said
