The United States has scored the President Muhammadu Buhari administration low, saying corruption is evident across all levels of government.
The observation was stated in the US 2017 Human Rights Report. It said the Federal Government led by Buhari failed to implement laws against corrupt practices.

The report added that although the government took steps to investigate alleged human rights abuses, "impunity remained widespread at all levels of government."


It said in part, "Although the law provides criminal penalties for conviction of official corruption, the government did not implement the law effectively, and officials frequently engaged in corrupt practices with impunity. Massive, widespread, and pervasive corruption affected all levels of government and the security services.

"The constitution provides immunity from civil and criminal prosecution for the president, vice president, governors, and deputy governors while in office."

The report also faulted the operations of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in prosecuting corruption charges. It said the Commission failed to follow due process.

It cited the case of the embattled former National Security Adviser (NSA), Sambo Dasuki, who has been in custody of the Department of State Services (DSS) since 2015, despite court orders demanding his release.

The report listed the most significant human rights issues during the year to include: "Extrajudicial and arbitrary killings; disappearances and arbitrary detentions; torture, particularly in detention facilities, including sexual exploitation and abuse; use of children by some security elements, looting, and destruction of property; civilian detentions in military facilities, often based on flimsy evidence."

The list also included, "denial of fair public trial; executive influence on the judiciary; infringement on citizens’ privacy rights; restrictions on freedoms of speech, press, assembly, and movement; official corruption; lack of accountability in cases involving violence against women and children; trafficking in persons; and early and forced marriages."

The report also berated Nigeria's judicial system, saying it was compromised during the period under review.

Interference with judiciary
The US said the executive and legislative arms of government continued to interfere with the judiciary.

It added, "Although the constitution and law provide for an independent judiciary, the judicial branch remained susceptible to pressure from the executive and legislative branches. Political leaders influenced the judiciary, particularly at the state and local levels.

"Understaffing, underfunding, inefficiency, and corruption prevented the judiciary from functioning adequately. Judges frequently failed to appear for trials.

"In addition, the salaries of court officials were low, and they often lacked proper equipment and training. There was a widespread public perception that judges were easily bribed and litigants could not rely on the courts to render impartial judgments.

watch how zombies curse America that they dream of going to but can't afford due to the meagre sum they earn from BMC

We don't even need he US to tell us that the Buhari led government is corrupt. How can a government say they are fighting corruption when its cabinet members are corrupt, if the fight is true and real it will start from the cabinet. Buhari is fighting oppositions and not corruption.

Thumbs up US of Trump.
They say there is no pressure from international communities on Buhari.
Well, here it is.

Sarkin:
What is their business??
God will punish the stupid lazy aggressive terrorist aka US govt that formulated this type of bullshit!!
Thunder fire them!!
They should mind their useless bastard business for once!!!
Buhari is a good man and we all love him!

Having a seizure because someone told you the truth?

fratermathy:
I don't have any issue with what they said because it is no secret that the present administration is corrupt. However, I have an issue with the USA being the umpire and judge of corruption. Who gave them the right to make statements on a sovereign state?

Even if they are to make statements like this, there are many diplomatic ways of doing so.

If you don't want a lecture from them on good governance and respect for human rights then stop taking their financial aid.

Simples!

It's actually the other way round. Though a 2017 report, it had not been released before Trump's statement and now that it has been released it is middle finger for Trump's remark
