Osinbajo reveals plots against anti-corruption war

Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo, has revealed alleged plots by some elements to wage war against the anti-corruption campaign of President Muhammadu Buhari-led government.

Osinbajo made this known on Thursday when he received protesting members of the organized labour comprising the Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, and the Trade Union Congress, TUC.

In his address, Osinbajo said a bring-back-corruption campaign was being launched in the social media.

“The social media campaign of bring-back-corruption is an orchestrated one.

“Nobody that is suffering can say bring back corruption. Attempts by those who are being tried for corruption to delay trials are also part of the orchestrated campaign.

“If we do not speak up against corrupt officials who make it look as if there is a witch-hunt, then we will not succeed in the fight. Government needs everybody to speak up.

“The fight against corruption is a serious battle for Buhari’s administration, it is tough.

“There is no way you will eat an omelette without breaking an egg. There is so much we can do with the Nigerian economy.

“The government is going to be consulting with the labour union and civil societies on its economic recovery and growth plan to be launched this month.”
