Probe My Children If They Are Corrupt, Buhari Tells EFCC by Nobody: 8:37am On Oct 08, 2016 |
The war against corruption may gather more steam soon, going by President Muhammadu Buhari’s latest pronouncement. The President has told the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and other anti-graft agencies to probe even his own children or members of his family implicated in corrupt practices. He said he would not forgive the anti-graft agency if it fails to probe any allegation of corruption against his children and family members. A sketch of Buhari’s tough anti-corruption mindset and plans was contained in a book, “Muhammadu Buhari: The challenges of leadership in Nigeria”, which is authored by Prof. John Paden. The book reveals how Buhari inspired the acting Chairman of EFCC, Mr. Ibrahim Magu as a school boy to develop anti-graft traits. “Buhari’s attitude is to let the chips fall where they may in particular cases, although reform of the judiciary is one of his larger goals. “Buhari has often said that if any of his own children were accused of corruption, and the authorities did not investigate, he would never forgive the authorities.” It was also learnt that the President has rebuffed pressure to save his allies in the All Progressives Congress(APC) from being probed by anti-graft agencies. In spite of their close family ties, it was learnt that President Muhammadu Buhari has failed to save the former National Security Adviser, Mr. Sambo Dasuki because his policy is that there should be no sacred cows in the anti-corruption war. It was also revealed for the first time that Buhari does not have any grudge against Dasuki despite the latter’s involvement in the August 1985 coup, which led to the former’s removal as a military head of state. “On numerous occasions, Buhari has urged public officials to do their duty without fear or favour. He has also tried to inspire younger generations to regard public service as an honest calling. “For example, the current acting head of EFCC, Ibrahim Magu was a schoolboy in Borno when Buhari was military governor in 1975. Buhari gave a talk to a group of boys that included Magu and urged them to do their best. “Magu was inspired and became a professional policeman. “In 2015, Buhari asked Magu to head the EFCC, a dangerous job if done well. By mid-May 2016, Magu had secured 143 convictions of corrupt officials.” . . more http://www.freshvibesblog.com.ng/2016/10/probe-my-children-if-they-are-corrupt.html?m=1
