"You Are Fighting Political Enemies Not Corruption" - Ijaw Group Tells Buhari
National President of the Delta state-based group, Comrade Austin Ozobo disclosed this in a statement he issued in Warri, where he reasoned that, “Buhari has not shown Nigerians any readiness to fight corruption. A good leader must begin sanctification from his house. He must first remove the veil in his own eyes before thinking of removing the veil in another man’s eyes”.
Ozobo went on to allege that the present anti-corruption war “is targeted at common political enemies in the country, it is to witch-hunt and weaken the opposition, if not, why has no move been made to arrest corrupt APC ex-governors, instead Buhari is providing cover for corrupt APC ex governors and other leaders”.“His corruption crusade is one sided and selective in nature.
You cannot hide your sins and begin to condemn
others. Such persons are hypocrites and pretenders and their punishment
will be twice over in heaven. The arrest and claims against former
National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, is a clear evidence to show
that Buhari is only fighting political antagonists,” the statement
noted.
The group categorically stated that if the President was serious
about his anti-corruption war, he would have started his probe from
former APC governors including: Rotimi Amaechi (Rivers), Babatunde Raji
Fashola (Lagos), Rabiu Kwakwanso (Kano), APC national leader, Asiwaju
Bola Tinubu and other notable chieftains of the governing party in the
country.
“Why should corrupt APC leaders be freely walking about the corridors of power without being questioned and the president is pretending and paying deaf ears to the public outcry to bring them to justice,” IPDI queried.
