Presidency has said that President Muhammadu Buhari will not be deterred by baseless criticisms by the opposition in his determination to eradicate chronic corruption in Nigeria in his capacity as the African Union continental anti-corruption champion.
The president’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, made the statement when he fielded questions from State House correspondents in Abuja.
The presidential aide was speaking with reporters on some issues raised by the opposition PDP since the beginning of the interrogation of suspended Acting Chairman of the EFCC, Ibrahim Magu.
Shehu said the volume and reach of the anti-corruption crusade had so far, reflected what the PDP left behind.
The spokesman lauded Buhari’s determination to end corruption in Nigeria.
Shehu also warned the PDP to allow the process of investigation and prosecution to work, instead of being preemptive about ongoing cases and unduly agitating the public.
