President Goodluck Jonathan said on
Monday that his successor would not have
any difficulty fighting corruption because
of the technology his administration is
putting in place to fight the menace.
Addressing party supporters at the
Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, campaign
rally in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, Mr.
Jonathan, who is the presidential
candidate of the party, promised to end
corruption in Nigeria, if given the
mandate to run the country for another
four years.
“I promise you if you vote for me and I
come back and serve this country in the
next four years, the next persons that will
become the president of this country will
not talk about corruption because we are
working on technology and we will use
technology to block all these areas through
which people are corruptly enriching
themselves,” he said.
Mr. Jonathan, who has severally accused
of condoning corruption, added: “Today
we are talking about IT. We are no longer
in the analogue generation. So we want to
deploy IT to solve problems and I tell you
in the next five years nobody will harass
the next president for not fighting
corruption because I will solve the
problem of corruption in this country.”
The presidential candidate of the All
Progressive Congress, APC, Muhammadu
Buhari, had promised during one of his
campaign rallies last week that he would
jail corrupt leaders.
However, Mr. Jonathan, who assured of
his commitment to stamp out corruption,
said he would not do so by sending
corrupt Nigerians to jail.
He said his administration has prosecuted
more people than any past administration
in the country.
He said, “But let me assure Nigerians
about my commitment and my method of solving the
problem of corruption or fighting is not the number of
people I tried and jailed.
“In terms of people I tried and jailed, maybe I will give you
the statistics on my subsequent outing because I have
asked them to give me the comprehensive statistics.
“We have tried more Nigerians. More Nigerians have been
jailed within this period, but we followed due process. But
I used to tell people that even if I tried 10 million
Nigerians and jailed five million Nigerians for corruption, I
have not solved the corruption problem.
“For you to stop corruption, you must use modern
technology to prevent people from stealing. And that is
what we are working on. The oil industry is a good area.
We are working very hard. I don’t just want to say certain
things. All these people have so much money that they will
do everything to stop us.”
Mr. Jonathan criticised Mr. Buhari for promising to abolish
the office of the First lady if he was elected.
The president said he would not do so because the office
and other women associations are used as a channel to
empower the country’s women.
He said, “They said they are going to ban the office of the
first lady, they are going to ban the office of the governors’
wives, they are going to ban the office of local government
chairman, they are going to ban the Defence officers
wives, army officers wives association, naval officers wives
association, police officers wives association.
“But me, having served as deputy governor, governor, vice
president and president, I can tell you that these offices
are helping us to mobilize our women. And these offices
are encouraged to set up NGOs. They money they spend
does not come from government budget. They run NGOs.
“Nigeria had a lot of philanthropists. They want spend
money and they use some of these channels to empower
our women. You don’t have to turn them to baby factory
alone.
“I promise the Nigeria that if we open international
magazines parading women I want to see Nigerian women
in those magazines. The Nigerian women on their own
have struggled to reach the highest positions in their
country. I am making deliberate effort to try to put you on
the international limelight. That is what I am doing. I don’t
believe that you are designed to pound yam for me.
“I don’t think your duty is merely to procreate. But you
cannot be a baby factory manufacturing children and doing
nothing because my conviction is that as a biologist, the
brain God gave men and women equally. Physically men
are more endowed but both men and women and equally
endowed in brain.
Mr. Jonathan said he had always believed that “any human
population that does not give equal opportunity to women
you are not exploiting 50% of their brains.”
He added, “For me we must exploit 50% of their brains for
the purpose of developing this country. That is why you
see so many women holding top offices in my cabinet and
we will encourage them the more. I don’t believe women
should not be given top positions. If that is the belief of
others so be it. A vote in 2015 is a vote to liberate them or
imprisoned them to the kitchen.”
Mr. Jonathan paid tribute to some Yoruba leaders,
including the first Premier of Western Region, Obafemi
Awolowo, the late Chairman of the defunct National Party
of Nigeria, NPN, Adisa Akinloye, a former governor of Oyo
State, Lam Adesina, a former Minister of Justice, Richard
Akinjide and the late Lamidi Adedibu, all of who he
described as “great men who have led the country and are
still leading.”
He added that “We want to model our leadership after
them because they achieved greatness.”
Mr. Jonathan described Ibadan as the political
headquarters of the South West just as he paid tribute to
the people of the region.
According to him, it was the people of the region that
encouraged him to convoke the 2014 National conference.
“Ibadan is a leading light to all parts of this country. South
West has played great in education. The south west
encouraged me to start the National Dialogue. I have to
give that accolade to the South West. You donated one of
yours who was the pioneer to set the agenda.

This is the best method of fighting corruption in a democratic setting. You can fight corruption by jailing people in a democratic government. You fight corruption in a democratic government by blocking the loopholes of corruption.

jonathan is going back to his home town.

Your people are waiting for you.
