SAN FRANCISCO, January 22, (THEWILL) – A former Governor of Anambra State and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Chief Chimwoke Mbadinuju has urged critics of President Muhammadu Buhari to stop seeing him as the cause of Nigeria’s political and economic problems as well as thinking that the President is idle doing nothing.
This was as he explained that “what the president is doing is cleaning the mess of previous administrations. It is clear that the president is not the cause of our political and economic problems but rather finding solutions of past and present problems we face.
Disclosing this yesterday while speaking with journalists in Keffi, Nasarawa State, the ex-Governor drummed up support for the anti-corruption crusade of the Muhammadu Buhari administration.
His words, “Former administrations brought the ‘cankerworm’ and ‘caterpillar’ of corruption, injustice, poor economy, cheating and looting. President Buhari has extended the loot recovery to former Yar’Adua-Obasanjo era and this is extensive enough to curb graft and recover Nigeria’s stolen commonwealth.
“Corruption will die faster in Nigeria if we do away with avarice, inordinate ambition, political ostentation, greed, cheating and the likes.”
“The president has travelled extensively but not for himself but for the Nigerian people. This travels to Europe, the United States, France, Malta and some other African countries were done to help our national situation and today Nigeria is better for those diplomatic travels.
“Just like Shakespeare said ‘folks who put the pipper to passion will see the pipper pipe after another fashion,’ Nigerians should applaud President Buhari on this path to prosperity.
“Every well-meaning Nigerian can agree with me that President Buhari’s decision to opt for Minister of Petroleum was to right the wrongs of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, and Nigeria as whole. This is a master-stroke that is certainly good for Nigeria.”
