United State Secretary of State, John Kerry, has applauded President
Buhari for his anti-corruption drive. Speaking at the ongoing World
Economic Forum holding in Davos, Switzerland, Kerry spoke on corruption
and how it threatens global stability, growth and future. He drew
example from Nigeria, its fight against Boko Haram and how findings from
the arms deal investigations showed that corruption stalled the fight
against terrorism...
“When Nigeria’s President, Buhari, took office last spring, he inherited
a military that was under-paid, underfed and unable to protect the
Nigerian people from Boko Haram. One reason is that much of the military
budget was finding its way into the pockets of the generals. And just
this week, we saw reports that more than 50 people in Nigeria, including
former government officials, stole nine billion dollars from the
treasury,” he told the delegation
