The Director of Abuja School of Social and Political
Thoughts, Sam Amadi, has faulted war against corruption in Nigeria, stating
that it is purely a political fight back.
Amadi made this remark on Friday on Arise Television’s
‘Prime Time’.
He said those whose assets are being forfeited to the
Federal Government are those who have left the government.
According to him, there are a lot of people still in
government who have cases with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,
EFCC, but are walking freely.
Recall that the Abuja Federal High Court recently ordered
final forfeiture of properties linked to former Attorney-General of the
Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, and former Governor of the
Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, Godwin Emefiele.
Reacting, Amadi said, “If Malami were still working with this
government, nothing would happen to him.
“The Senate president has EFCC cases that aren’t progressing.
Almost everyone in this administration has unprogressive cases.
“Oftentimes, the war against corruption is a political fight
back, because if corruption is to be fought truthfully, a transparent and
accountable system needs to be set up.”
