President Paul Kagame, president
of Rwanda, says President Muhammadu Buhari is the African Union Champion in the
fight against corruption.
Speaking at the Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) summit in Abuja on Tuesday, Kagame
congratulated Buhari on his victory at the poll and said Nigeria must share
resources equitably, so everyone can join the fight against corruption.
“President Buhari, I wish to give
you our very warm congratulations on your re-election and best wishes for the
entire Nigerian people, on the road ahead,” Kagame said.
“I also want to mention here,
that President Buhari is AU (African Union) champion in the fight against
corruption, and we thank you.”
Kagame said corruption must be
fought from top to bottom, using four key principles: “culture, responsibility,
accountability and effectiveness”.
“We must discard the myth that
corruption is endemic to a particular culture. corruption is a universal
weakness, not an African one, and it is not part of our destiny as a continent.
He said research has shown that
the biggest beneficiaries of corruptions are outside Africa.
