President Muhammadu Buhari has issued a stern warning to
public servants and political appointees who use their offices to bestow undue
advantage on anyone seeking government jobs and other favours.
Buhari warned that the act is antithetical to the character
of his administration.
Buhari was quoted to have sounded the warning in a statement
by the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, on Wednesday,
following persistent reports of fraudsters using the business cards and
purported referral letters from presidential aides and other government
officials to solicit employment, contract and other favours.
According to Mohammed, Buhari warned federal ministries,
departments and agencies to disregard any purported request from officials of
the government aiming to confer undue advantage on anyone seeking such favours.
The Minister insisted that the President Buhari government
has put in place a systematic and disciplined approach to ensure that the
current administration benefits all Nigerians, whether in the area of
employment or contract procurement.
The Minister added that ”This system should be allowed to
work for all Nigerians without interference.”
