The Presidency has declared that the anti-corruption war of President Muhammadu Buhari administration is in motion and would continue, irrespective of whose ox is gored.
The reiteration was a direct response to the accusation levelled against it by PDP Senators, led by the former Governor of Akwa Ibom state, Godswill Akpabio that the anti-corruption war lacked transparency and was being targeted at mostly those in the opposition PDP.
But is that are innocent men being prosecuted? If you are guilty then you should be afraid of Buhari.
Speaking to Vanguard in Abuja in response to the accusation, presidential spokesman, Mr. Femi Adesina stated that it was natural for the guilty to be afraid. He said the anti-graft war which is one of the cardinal objectives of the Buhari administration must continue despite PDP's opposition against it.
“It is only the guilty that can be afraid. If anybody is not guilty, they should not be afraid. This president will not witch-hunt anybody. But is anyone has skelton in his cupboard, he has every right to be afraid.
“If they don’t have skeltons in their cupboard, they have no cause to be afraid but anybody that has any skelton in his cupboard has every right to be afraid.
“War against corruption is one of the cardinal objectives of this administration and the war will not hold on because some people are afraid.
“The war will continue... So, if anybody has skelton in his cupboard, yes, he has a right to be afraid but the war is not targeted at anybody”, the Presidency stressed.
