President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday promised to reveal the names of former government officials who have voluntarily returned looted funds to the coffers of the Federal Government in “due course”, saying that early disclosure of their identities “may jeopardize the possibility of bigger recoveries.”

“In due course, the Central Bank of Nigeria will make information available to the public on the surrendered funds,” said President Buhari at the 2015 edition of the annual Osigwe Anyiam-Osigwe Foundation Lecture in Lagos.

He said his government owes Nigerians adequate information on recovery of looted funds, explaining that it is part of the collective effort to change the country from the “bastion of corruption it currently is, to a place of probity and transparency”.

In his speech, Buhari said his government has identified corruption as the major problem facing the country. He noted that the phenomenon must be curtailed if the issues of collapsing educational system, diversification of our economy, fostering a welfare based agenda for the disadvantaged, infrastructural development, which were central to his government’s change agenda, could be effectively tackled.

“The primary attention that tackling corruption earned in the course of our campaign and in determining the final outcome of the election underpins how seriously Nigerians see corruption as a fundamental factor crippling the progress and development of the country. Nigerians are, indeed, convinced that except we curtail corruption, the country will remain in perennial regression.

“It is upon this conviction of our people that corruption poses great danger and should be curtailed that we anchor our hope. It underpins our assurance that the efforts of this government in checking corruption will yield significant successes in the final outcome.

“In other words, we note that sheer heroism cannot achieve the elimination of corruption from our social space. What is most required is the conviction of the populace that corruption is an antithesis to social cohesion and development, and must be eliminated. We must get to a point where every Nigerian begins to hate corruption with a passion, and collectively determine to root it out of our body polity.”

How this man managed to isolate his soul from the infectious Nigerian corruption is still a mystery.

Many who feel threatened that a Nigerian could be this upright, would soon come here to declare that how dare he pretend to be a saint.
These people have always known corruption to be a Nigerian way of life. Their fathers and mothers are beneficiaries of the corrupt system, and woe betide that leader who would dare to deny them of their corruption priviledges.

Sai Baba, call on me. I am willing to quit my life of luxury from honest earnings to come pursue corrupt men and women to the end of this world. Even into hell, to retrieve them for a Nigerian judgement that many have escaped in the years when the presidency was the greatest promoter of corruption.

God bless this great president.

Buhari is an animal.....very deceitful and clueless thief

He will publish the name of the looters and the amount looted when he might have ROUGH-HANDLED the funds at his disposal


Believe Buhari to be a honest gentleman at your own peril
