President Muhammadu Buhari says he will deal with anybody caught red-handed stealing public funds, regardless of the person’s ethnicity or religion.

The President said this in Abuja on Friday when he received an All Progressives Congress (APC) delegation from Benue State, led by Senator George Akume.

He also said leaders who undermine the economy by denying workers their benefits while stuffing personal accounts with public funds will not escape the current anti-corruption dragnet.

According to a statement by Femi Adesina, Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Buhari said the Federal Government's bailout to states and Paris Club funds were basically to alleviate the sufferings of the people, describing misappropriations as unjust and unfair to workers.

“I honestly don’t know how people sleep when workers have not been paid. The workers have to pay rent, buy food, send their children to school and they have healthcare to take care of,” the President was quoted as saying.

“I assure you that my main interest is all Nigerians in all parts of the country. Therefore, if anybody who tries to create any impression that I prefer any group across ethnicity or religion let him dare me by being caught red handed stealing public funds. I will deal with him," he said.

He told the APC delegation that the Federal Executive Council had been monitoring the plight of workers across the country and the utilisation of the bailout and Paris Club funds by some states.

“I thank you for your courage to come and see me. This visit has resuscitated our morale,” he said, adding that his government had made significant progress in diversifying the economy by investing in agriculture and encouraging more individuals and entrepreneurs to go into farming.

“We are proud of what we have achieved with resources at our disposal,” he said, listing ongoing road, rail, sea port, airport and power projects as hallmarks of his administration’s commitment to improving lives.

He noted that the killings across the country, including in Benue, Zamfara and Taraba, were carried out by “ungodly’’ people who had no religious or ethnic inclinations.

“We know about herders. The ones we knew carried sticks, and sometimes cutlasses to cut foliage for their cattle. We now have people who carry AK 47s and pretend they are herdsmen,” he said.

“We are working hard to secure our borders. We are going to see how the old cattle routes can be opened. We will control movement. Please beg our people to be patient.”

Very correct.
Advanced senility so he cannot distinguish reality from fallacy any longer.
Buhari is probably far older than the 76 he officially is now,probably mid-late 80's and his poor intellect growing up hasn't helped,so the result is the deluded things he says most times.
Advanced old age,poor intellectual development growing up,has been his Achilles heel.

What about those caught on camera collecting bribes, what are you going to do about them?

Lolz.. You get bad mouth oo... ... The things he says amazes one, it's as if he isn't existing..

Except your self and your family members and your loyalist are free to loot Nigeria to Venezuela.

It's not matter of bad mouth or a joke.
Old men at late 80's to 90 have by nature some level of amnesia and out of context speech.
Some do not,particularly those that grew up with the kind of sound education Buhari had access to then,but couldn't use to properly develop himself due to baseline low IQ.
Obasanjo is officially older than Buhari,but you can see the good his proper schooling has done for him.Ditto,many other statesmen of Buhari's age range,the Clark's,late Maitama Sule etc.
Brain deficit,poor intellectual development, bed rock of incompetence,but when these now coexist in a man with inborn nepotic,parochial,clannish tendencies,you have the kind of nightmarish disaster of leadership we unfortunately are having to experience first hand.

you should start with Ganduje mr president sir

Hypocrite! What about Ganduje
