Buhari: Why The Fight Against Corruption Is Slow by PMBNG(m): 10:10am On Dec 26, 2018
Muhammadu Buhari, Nigeria’s President, has revealed why the fight against corruption under his administration is slow.

Mr Buhari who seeks a second term in office has often been referred to as ‘Baba Go Slow’ by critics of the administration.

But speaking when he played host to the federal capital territory community, who paid him Christmas homage at his official residence on Tuesday in Abuja, the president said the system is to be blamed for the slow pace in the fight against graft.

Buhari who intends to flag of his presidential campaign this Friday in the South South region said his campaign train would visit the six geo-political zone in the country to remain them of the 3 major promises he made to them.

“We are watching the Independent National Electoral Commission very seriously and we are going out very soon; we will go from geo-political zone to geo-political zone, to remind the people of our promises in 2015,” the president said.

“These three fundamental things include security, because you have to secure the country before you can govern it and talking about what we have done regarding securing the country, the people of the north-east know better.

“The three fundamental things we campaigned with are still very relevant. On improving the economy, which we are still going to explore, we have done well in agriculture, and those who embraced farming are not regretting it and we have also addressed unemployment and we are very lucky, through that we are now attaining food security.

“The third thing with which we will campaign is the issue of corruption.

“I told you what I did when I was in uniform but now when I have to go by this system (democracy,) where people have to be arrested and then prosecuted, taken to court and then with evidence, we will collect back what they had taken illegally and for doing that, people are calling me Baba go slow.

“I am going slowly but whatever the case, I will not stop pointing fingers at those who have abused trust by taking money that does not belong to them. I will keep on trying to do my best for this country and get back what belongs to the country,” Buhari added.

Even not just the system but even people, imagine here we have plenty pigs and idiots who defend thieves while living in the most odious of conditions. .. there must be a law that criminalizes praising and supporting corruption. We must rid this nation of garbage so that the future generations shall have a clean slate
