Yakubu Dogara, Speaker of the House of Representatives has called for a preventive approach to fighting corruption.

The Speaker stated this while speaking in Abuja at the ‎launch of ‘Antidotes for Corruption: The Nigerian Story’, a book written by Dino Melaye.

He said prosecuting high profile cases of corruption was only worsening the problem, and not dealing with its root cause.

Recall that the Senate President Bukola Saraki has earlier stated that the current fight against corruption has not “yielded much success” because it is rippled with sensationalism.

"The fight against corruption should be the moral responsibility of all Nigerians because it affects everybody,” he said.

“We ran into a situation where corruption was celebrated. When there are prosecution of high‎ profile cases, we are only punishing corruption, but we are not dealing with the root cause of it. We must make the practice of corruption very difficult.”
