Nothing will stop fight against corruption – Osinbajo

Vice President Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, has stated that the President Muhammadu Buhari led administration will not slack in its fight against corruption.

The Vice President was speaking on Tuesday when he played host to the Nigerian Association of Law Teachers in the State House, Abuja.

Osinbajo noted that the fight against corruption was a difficult one.

He said, “If we are not able to sustain the trouble against corruption, we will end up in a very, very bad way as a nation.”

He noted that the Defence contract of $15 billion, which was frittered away in people’s pockets, “is half of our country’s foreign reserves.”

“We have seen it in so many different ways that at almost every state, corruption fights back and fights very fiercely.

“We should be able to examine our priorities because for us corruption is not a moral issue, it is an existential issue.

“To a large extent it will determine whether we will survive as a corporate whole because of the way people feel that when I get into an office I will go after the resources of the state, and I will go after it in the most vicious and the most reckless manner that is possible”, he said.
