Buhari Makes Call For Investigative Journalism by maupe: 6:18pm On May 30, 2016
President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday hosted members of the State House Correspondents to an anniversary lunch with a challenge for journalists to always conduct research on crime-related issues before publishing. The President said the call had become imperative in order to ensure accurate and factual reportage of such issues. Buhari made reference to the ongoing efforts by the Federal Government to recover Nigeria’s stolen funds. He said only investigative reporting of the events would enable the public to understand and appreciate the implications of such criminal acts. ``How do you define change? Luckily, our party identified three major items, security, economy and corruption. ``So, please when next you want to interrogate out visitors try and do some research so that when they are coming next time, they will do research themselves’’, he said. He, however, stated that efforts had been intensified to get the international community’s support towards full recovery of the diverted 2.1billion dollars meant for purchase of military hardwares to fight insurgency. ``People were trusted and the most recent one which we haven't recovered from is the 2.1billion dollars given by the government then, to the military to buy hardwares to fight the insurgency which had taken over part of the country. ``They just sat, just the way you are sitting now, and shared the money into their own account. ``They didn't even bother. So, we are still trying to get the cooperation of the international community and we have to do it with a lot of respect to the judiciary. ``We cannot go out and talk too much. We have to allow the judiciary to do their work. We will give them the facts, the name, country, bank account. ``If you talk too much, technicalities will come in, then, we will realise less than what we want to realise,’’ he said. Buhari described the first one year in office of the All Progressives Congress-led administration as a tumultuous year for everyone in the villa. ``I will talk about my experience here in Aso Villa. I underrated the influence of the PDP for 16 years watching from outside ar eight consecutive governments.
