New Delhi-President Muhammadu Buhari has said
that his main target for fighting corruption was to
stop corrupt individuals from seeking to occupy
public offices for selfish gains.
This is even as he stated that his government
would not relent in the current anti-corruption war,
stressing it would continue to many years.
According to him, the prosecution of alleged
criminals would serve as a deterrent to others,
stating that he was committed to curbing
corruption, plugging all loopholes in public sector
accounting and deploying available resources for
the good of all Nigerians.
The president spoke, Wednesday, during a meeting
with members of the Nigerian community in New
Delhi, India where he is attending the 3rd Summit
of the India and African Nations.
President Buhari also prioritized the recovery of
looted funds, saying he was conscious of the
devastating consequences of the illegal diversion of
public resources meant for national development
into private bank accounts.
He said: “The anti-corruption campaign will be on-
going for many years. We are committed to the
enthronement of good governance that plugs the
loopholes in public sector accounting, and the use
of scarce resources for public good.
“We are determined to demonstrate exemplary
leadership that will make our citizens to change
their ways in a manner that lays a solid foundation
for reconstruction and development.
“I am confident that our approach to fighting
corruption through value re-orientation, improved
internal processes and systems and the rule of law,
as well as enhancing the capacity of the various
anti-corruption agencies and institutions will prove
more enduring in addressing this evil.
“In the meantime, we will continue to prosecute
those who have been indicted for corrupt practices
and ensure that stolen funds are recovered, to
serve as deterrence to others who nurse the
ambition of seeking public office solely for illegal
personal gain”.
The President told the Nigerian community he was
fully aware of the expectations of Nigerians who
elected him on the platform of change, integrity,
probity and accountability, and was therefore doing
his utmost best to meet those expectations.
He also vowed to stabilize the economy to enable
many teeming youth to get jobs.
The president hinted he was that he was taking
proactive measure to end insurgency in the
country.
“I wish to assure you that we shall do our best to
fix the economy, create jobs for the teeming
population of our youths and make the home
environment safe, secure and more attractive to
Nigerians outside the country like your good
selves.
“On the economy, our aim is to address the
challenge of infrastructure in all its ramifications,
especially power and transportation. We are
seeking to create jobs through agriculture, mining,
industrial value-addition and the promotion of
small scale enterprises.
“We are also taking steps to address criminality
across the country. We are tackling the menace of
terrorism posed by Boko Haram head on and I am
pleased to note that though sporadic attacks on
soft targets have not stopped, the over-all capacity
of Boko Haram to hold territory and determine the
course of the conflict has been severely degraded.
“If the current positive trends are maintained, we
are confident that by the end of this year, we would
have succeeded in permanently turning the tide
against the Boko Haram insurgents in Nigeria,”
President Buhari said.
