President Buhari has stated corrupt leaders that have stolen the wealth
of the Nation will not escape going to jail. President Buhari said this
today when he received a delegation of APC leaders from Benue state in
the presidential villa, Abuja.A statement from his media aide, Femi
Adesina, quotes President Buhari saying that the misappropriations of
funds meant for the development of the people is unjust and unfair to
workers.“I honestly don’t know how people sleep when workers have not
been paid. The workers have to pay rent, buy food, send their children
to school and they have healthcare to take care of. I assure you that my
main interest is all Nigerians in all parts of the country. Therefore,
if anybody who tries to create any impression that I prefer any group
across ethnicity or religion let him dare me by being caught red handed
stealing public funds. I will deal with him’’ he saidPresident Buhari
told the party leaders that the farmes and herdsmen clashes witnessed in
Benue, Zamfara and Taraba, are being carried out by “ungodly’’ people
who had no religious or ethnic inclinations.“We know about herders. The
ones we knew carried sticks, and sometimes cutlasses to cut foliage for
their cattle. We now have people who carry AK 47s and pretend they are
herdsmen. We are working hard to secure our borders. We are going to see
how the old cattle routes can be opened. We will control movement.
Please beg our people to be patient,’’ he saidThe President pointed out
that security personnel were already uncovering the network of the
killers and arresting them.President Buhari vows to ensure corrupt leaders end up in jail
