An APC leader in Osun State,
Amitolu Shitu, has said that President Muhammmadu Buhari has failed in his
campaign against corruption.
Shittu asked the President to
sack suspended Secretary General, Babachir Lawal and the Executive Secretary of
the National Health Insurance Scheme, NHIS, Usman Yusuf.
Lawal, Yusuf and others have
allegations of corruption levelled against them.
Shitu, who is also the
coordinator of DeRaufs – a pro- Governor Rauf Aregbesola group – said the
President had failed many Nigerians, who voted for him to rid the nation of
corruption.
He told Punch, “President
Muhammadu Buhari was voted in because of his stance on corruption.
“He was seen as a man of integrity
and a leader, who would fight corruption, which has prevented Nigeria and
Nigerians from developing.
“Unfortunately, he has failed in
his anti-corruption war. He failed, not because he is stealing money, but
because he allowed corrupt politicians around him to hijack governance from him
and run the affairs of the nation with impunity.
“It is not enough for the
President to suspend the SGF and the NHIS boss, I believe he should sack them.
And not only these two officials, there are others who were accused of
corruption. Nothing has been done against them.
“Buhari’s campaign against
corruption has failed and the rate of corruption now is so alarming.”
