Create Corruption Loopholes, Go To Jail – Osinbajo by skak(m): 9:47pm On Jun 27, 2015 |
Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, said it is not going to be business as usual in running the affairs of the country. He stated that anyone caught creating loopholes in order to siphon public funds would face the consequences. Osinbajo who made this known while speaking at the 3rd Annual Christopher Kolade’s lecture on business integrity in Lagos, pointed out that weak public and private institutions, corrupt practices coupled with ineffective public policies had remained the bane of economic stability in the country. The Vice President whose address dwelt on “Beyond Compliance: Imbibing a Culture of Business Integrity,” said integrity should be an acceptable standard and aspiration of every business leader. Osinbajo said, “The most important thing is to do things right. It is important that we comply with the rule of law. There is need to ensure that people’s rights are not trampled on. And there is need to ensure that people face the consequences for wrongful actions. That balance is necessary. “The administration will ensure that loopholes compliance are plugged and those responsible for creating loopholes will face the consequence.” “The greater good of the company also means the greater good of many people, their lives and families. The question is, how do we respond to the ethical dynamics of poverty and corruption when it concerns our friends, ethnic or religious groups?” Painting a gloomy picture on the poser raised by the vice president, the Former Nigerian High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, Dr. Christopher Kolade, lamented that many Nigerians no longer stand on the side of what is right. Kolade averred that the country was a difficult place to practise integrity because corruption was perceived as the right way of life. “We use corruption in our conversations than we talk about integrity. Integrity should feature more in our conversations. Integrity is meant to be natural to human beings,” Kolade said. http://leadership.ng/news/443176/create-corruption-loopholes-go-to-jail-osinbajo |

While I wish them well, it worthy to say that they were not voted in to fight corruption alone to the detriment of other facets of governance. After all, their victory was also a product of corruption. |
