Hints have emerged that President Muhammadu Buhari would compel his ministers and aides to sign a pact not to corruptly enrich themselves in office.
Buhari is said to have made the decision on the strength of overwhelming evidence of how top government officials in past administrations amassed wealth with impunity.
Speaking on the matter, Presidential spokesman on Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adeshina said there was nothing wrong with Buhari laying down terms and conditions or rules of engagement for those whose services he wants to engage.
“It is only natural that if the President engages you to work with him, there will be terms and conditions. It is not strange. Don’t forget that we had a President in this country who compelled people to sign pre-dated resignation letters. I am not saying that this President is going to do that, but it means there can always be terms and conditions. These are just like rules of engagement”, Adeshina said.
