President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday said that corruption was the major factor responsible for the suffering of millions of Nigerians.
Buhari added that corruption at all levels was the biggest problem impeding Nigeria’s economic growth and development.
Represented by Mr Boss Mustapha, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, the president said: “Our fight against corruption is in reality a struggle for nation building and the future.“Disrespect for accountability also strives when people get away with all manner of questionable things and accountants are unable to check them.
“Therefore, if we do not slay corruption with the passion it deserves, we will not get the result that we need.’’ “We signed the Executive Order 7 of 2019 on Road Infrastructure Development and Rehabilitation Investment Tax Credit Scheme. Magu said the fight against corruption could not be won if it was left alone to the EFCC and other anti-graft agencies.
