“All of us have a responsibility to assist this government to fight corruption which is the greatest scourge confronting this country today. Although, I can’t give you any detail now because we are still meeting, it is when we have met and taken a decision that I would be able to tell you what the committee’s decision is. But one thing I can tell you is that we are very committed. We are extremely committed to the Nigerian people in combating the scourge of corruption”.
He dismissed the allegations from certain quarters that his appointment was meant to compensate him for his support to Mr. Buhari's bid during the last general elections in Nigeria.
“Some people will not do anything to better the society. They lack patriotism. I am not surprised about their criticism at all. They are always concerned about themselves; self, self, self. I have no time for them.”
We pray we get it right this time and that the whole campaign against corruption will not be hijacked and turned into political witch-hunt
