President Muhammadu Buhari has been advised to bring on board people like former Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Malam Nuhu Ribadu, to effectively fight corruption.
President of the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Coalition for Peace and Mobilisation (NACOPEM), Comrade Ahmed Saleh made the call on Tuesday in Abuja.
According to Saleh,“we need the likes of Nuhu Ribadu and many others to rejoin the party and support this government to fight corruption and help Mr President address the multifaceted problems we have been facing since independence”.
The group said as part of its assigned mandate, as members of the peace and mobilisation of the APC, its investigations revealed that what the government needed at this critical point in time to fight corruption was for President Buhari to call on credible Nigerians, who it said possesd the know-how, intelligence, ability and the strategy to fight corruption.
“I mention people like Ribadu because I remember when $15 million was brought to him in an attempt to bribe him. How many people can resist such temptation at this present day? Today, former Governor James Ibori is in jail partly due to his efforts,” he said.
