General Muhammadu Buhari arrives Chatham House with Governor Rotimi Amaechi General Muhammadu Buhari arrives Chatham House with Governor Rotimi Amaechi General Muhammadu Buhari, the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate has stated that corrupt persons will not be appointed into his government. Buhari said this he addressed Chatham House, London today. The former head of state promised that Nigeria will be restored to its old glory. “In the face of dwindling revenues, a good place to start the repositioning of Nigeria’s economy is to swiftly tackle two ills that have ballooned under the present administration: waste and corruption. And in doing this, I will, if elected, lead the way, with the force of personal example,” he said. Noting that: “on corruption, there will be no confusion as to where I stand. Corruption will have no place and the corrupt will not be appointed into my administration. First and foremost, we will plug the holes in the budgetary process. Revenue producing entities such as NNPC and Customs and Excise will have one set of books only. Their revenues will be publicly disclosed and regularly audited. The institutions of state dedicated to fighting corruption will be given independence and prosecutorial authority without political interference. “But I must emphasise that any war waged on corruption should not be misconstrued as settling old scores or a witch-hunt. I’m running for President to lead Nigeria to prosperity and not adversity. “In reforming the economy, we will use savings that arise from blocking these leakages and the proceeds recovered from corruption to fund our party’s social investments programmes in education, health, and safety nets such as free school meals for children, emergency public works for unemployed youth and pensions for the elderly. “As a progressive party, we must reform our political economy to unleash the pent-up ingenuity and productivity of the Nigerian people thus freeing them from the curse of poverty. We will run a private sector-led economy but maintain an active role for government through strong regulatory oversight and deliberate interventions and incentives to diversify the base of our economy, strengthen productive sectors, improve the productive capacities of our people and create jobs for our teeming youths. “In short, we will run a functional economy driven by a worldview that sees growth not as an end by itself, but as a tool to create a society that works for all, rich and poor alike. On March 28, Nigeria has a decision to make. To vote for the continuity of failure or to elect progressive change. I believe the people will choose wisely,” he stated. http://www.metronaija.com/2015/02/ill-not-appoint-corrupt-persons-in-my.html |

Thanks for these reassuring words. Unlike the outgoing clueless one talking in this video about stable electricity supply. I have a diesel gen, a petrol gen and a battery bank with an inverter.

A. "Abacha was not corrupt" - Buhari! B. "I will not appoint corrupt people in my government" - Buhari The big question is this, what is corruption? Corruption in this case has nothing to do with forgery or stealing. Whosoever Buhari declares corrupt is corrupt and whosoever he declares not corrupt is not corrupt. Abacha is a case study! So, Buhari will not appoint Amechi in his government? Hahahahahaaha. Surely , he will and all he needs to do is to say: Amechi is not corrupt. Buhari will surely appoint people like Abacha in his government. 7 Likes |

Happycool: At bold apart from proper screening, anyone later found engaging in corrupt practices while already appointed will be replaced and made to face the law. When everyone knows that it is not business as usual, everyone will situp and do things the right way. Nigerians are capable of doing the right things. |
