According to Ex political adviser to ex-president Shehu Shagari, Alhaji Tanko Yakassai, President Muhammadu Buhari is going about the anti-corruption crusade the wrong way.
He said that Buhari was insincere with his fight against corruption.
Yakassai, also the chairman of the Northern Elders’ Council, said any fight against corruption must be holistic rather than being centred on just an individual.
He flayed the current government for its open disrespect for valid court orders, urging him to obey all court orders relating to the former National Security Adviser (NSA), Col Sambo Dasuki (rtd).
“The federal government of Nigeria is only fighting Sambo Dasuki. Should the fight against corruption begin and end with Dasuki? Is he the only ‘corrupt’ person? Till today, they have not even started his case in the court. He was granted bail twice and they refused to let him go. This is not a fight against corruption. It is a propaganda fight.
“They even convinced people like Prof Wole Soyinka who now believes that there is a fight against corruption, but there is no such thing. Otherwise, how many people have they arrested?
“All the people that are arrested today are connected with Dasuki. No other person has been picked. What of the governors, ministers, top civil servants and local government officials? Can you fight one person and say you are fighting corruption?”
