$2.1bn arms deals: CACOL demands heavy punishment for culprits

President Muhammadu Buhari

He said, “Anybody that stole money meant for national security must be brought to book, and should be punished for misleading Nigerians into internecine. ” Innocent citizens and our soldiers were killed due to poor equipment and yet some self-serving persons were busy politicizing such a serious matter.”

Speaking further, the anti-corruption crusader wonders why it became the job of the security adviser to disburse money for publicity as claimed by Chief Raymond Dokpesi when we have the Olisa Metuh, PDP’s Director of Publicity and even the then Minister of Information.

“The EFCC should ensure that proper investigation is carried out, ensuring that all cases goes through due judicial process and if the suspects are found culpable they should be prosecuted and equally allowed to face the full penalty; because no corruption culprit should be allowed to go unpunished.

They should be used as an example for others who may want to indulge in similar act.” “Corruption is sure the only reason our blessed country is not moving forward. Nigerians should, despite our political differences, admit that at least Buhari is starting somewhere.

Corruption has been so much embedded in our collective psyche that any person who has the best of intentions at giving it a kick is perceived as a nutter, bent on ‘wasting our precious time’. We must know that it takes bravery and courage to step on toes of the powerful and the untouchables”, Adeniran said.

Debo Adeniran concluded by imploring President Buhari to disregard such distractions and concentrate on pursuing his anti-corruption crusade with all his vigor and ensuring that the thieves of our common patrimony are exposed and adequately punished.

“We just want to hope that at the end of the arrest and questioning, true justice is served to all the principal actors of this absurd drama”.
