Under President Muhammadu Buhari's watch, favours and patronage will not be dispensed on the basis of party affiliation. Government will also not discriminate against groups and individuals in the performance of its obligations.
"As far as the President is concerned, corruption has no political party, no religion and no ethnic group. "
Buhari spoke through his Senior Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu in a statement made available to newsmen on Sunday. The statement was in response to the allegation by the PDP Senate caucus that the Buhari administration has been biased in prosecuting the fight against corruption.
The statement described the allegation as "false, baseless and totally unjustifiable." It reaffirmed President Buhari's zero tolerance for corruption and his unwavering stance that
those charged with corruption should face the law, even if they belong to the ruling party, APC.
Buhari had said during the campaigns that corruption would kill Nigeria if Nigerians didn't kill corruption.
