sponsors of violence in Rivers State would be punished.

 

Anyone who thinks that  the present government would soft-pedal in its anti-corruption war  should better think again as President Muhammadu Buhari has said that he  would rather be merciless and relentless in the pursuits.  The president said that there was no going back in pursuing all the  elites who had conspired to run the nation aground. 


President Buhari’s latest vow came as a reaction to questions from the  members of Nigerian community in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea during a  meeting with them.  It will be recalled that the president was on a state visit to the  country.  He said: “We will be merciless and relentless in pursuing all those who  abused public trust. Nigerians will see how some of the elite conspired  to run the nation down,” he said.
