It is pertinent to note that the Vice President is a Professor of Law, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and a very experienced lawyer. The Attorney-General is also a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, although his legal competence was called into question by Junaid Mohammed, a Second Republic member of the House of Representatives: "The attorney general of the federation, as far as I'm concerned he the chief law officer of the country.... I’m aware that this joker, the attorney general who had been practising in Kano – he was a charge-and-bail lawyer in Kano."

Notwithstanding Mohammed's disparaging remarks, fighting corruption was a central feature of Buhari's campaign for the presidency and therefore a key pillar of the mandate given to him and Osinbajo by the Nigerian people. It is really odd that a lawyer of the Vice President's standing didn't know that to succeed in fighting corruption, his government needed to take a serious look at empowering the prosecuting agencies and improving their case management and criminal procedures capacity to ensure watertight prosecutions.

There's some of that going on, but I think most of the failure is down to incompetence.

The AGF is one of Mamman Daura's boys.

Tor! They all and are yam eaters and cannot really commit to what you ask. The so called fight ask corruption is just an exercise to demonize the opposition.
