The
acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim
Magu, has claimed that looters of Nigeria’s treasury over the years were those
sponsoring the current agitation for restructuring and Biafra.
Magu
stated this while speaking on Friday at a stakeholder’s meeting in Kano.
The
anti-graft boss insisted that if the country must move forward, Nigerians must
be determined to fight corruption at all levels.
“Corruption
is a threat to the unity of this country and we must fight, despite the
stumblingly blocks.
“Agitations
of restructuring the nation, Biafra and even Boko Haram are being financed by
looters of the country.
“The looters are ready to continue sponsoring
all these violence against the state just to create confusion to distract
attention against them. But that will not succeed.
“I can
assure you that the President and the Vice President are committed to the fight
against corruption and we have this political will in our leaders. We would not
be deterred; we will continue fighting the war against corruption in this
country.
“Again,
those looting our wealth in this country are not more than 10,000 people and I
don’t think there is any way the will of these people will prevail upon over
the 150 million people of Nigeria,” Magu said.
