Ijaw leader and former Information Minister, Chief Edwin Clark yesterday threw his weight behind President Muhammadu Buhari’s anti-corruption war especially in the recovery of the about $150 billion oil money stolen by past government officials.

Clark, during a press conference in Abuja said corruption which has become systemic and endemic has slowed down the progress of the country over the years and the culprits if not severally dealt with will sink the country.

He also called on President Buhari to as a matter of urgency; appoint a successor to the former chairman of the Amnesty Programme to avoid imminent disintegration of the programme which has kept the peace in the Niger Delta.
