The senior special assistant to
President Muhammadu Buhari on legal matters, Professor Ayuka Adamu Usman, says
corruption is to be blamed for agitations for Biafra and clamour for
restructuring.
Professor Adamu stressed that the
major task for Buhari’s administration was how to tackle corruption and not
restructuring.
According to him, Nigeria’s
problems would still remain if Nigerians fell back into various constituencies
without tackling corruption.
Professor Adamu while speaking to
newsmen in Abuja explained that the various agitations in parts of the country
were fallout of corruption.
“I personally don’t buy into the
idea of restructuring, because our major problem as court is corruption.
“All these agitations and crisis
are the fallout of corruption. To me, the major issue is how to fight
corruption which the present government is serious about.
“Even if Nigerians fall back to
their various constituencies, in the name of restructuring, without first
fighting corruption, the problem will still remain”, he said.
He added that agitators were
majority of Nigerians deprived of resources in the country.
“If Nigerians are not catered
for, if they lack the basics of live. They are likely to express their anger in
one form or the other. Some could go into robbery. Some would go into
militancy, while some would easily be recruited to be part of IPOB or any other
militant group.
“But if really there is no
corruption and the resources are applied across board and life is made better
and easier, then we will see less of these,” Professor Adamu added.
