OurMumuDonDo movement has called
on President Muhammadu Buhari to ensure former Secretary to the Government of
the Federation; Babachir Lawal and former Director General of the National
Intelligence Agency; Ayodele Oke are prosecuted.
This is contained in a joint
statement on Tuesday issued by co-conveners – Charles Oputa, Deji Adeyanju, Ariyo
Dare Atoye, Bako Abdul Usman and Moses Paul.
“President Buhari must not
mitigate the crimes of Babachir Lawal and Ayodele Oke against the Nigerian
people and the Nigerian state by merely sacking them. Both men must be made to
face the law accordingly”, the coalition said.
“In addition, the president must
not allow former pension boss, Abdulrasheed Maina’s case be swept under the
carpet like it was the first time. Maina must be arrested and prosecuted so
that his case will serve as a deterrent to other looters of public wealth.
“As a group of genuinely
concerned citizens, we must remind President Buhari that the fight against
corruption is sharply losing momentum because top government officials in the
president’s cabinet are being shielded by the president.
“In the best interest of Nigeria
and the administration, we strongly urge the president to act on other cases of
corruption involving top officials in his administration and ensure that they
are prosecuted accordingly.
“If this is not done, president
Buhari’s fight against corruption will lose the trust it enjoyed at the
beginning of his administration and Nigeria will be worse off than it was in
2015.”
