A group within the fold of All Progressives Congress, APC, in Kogi State, Kogi APC Renaissance Forum has asserted that fight against corruption embarked upon by the present administration led by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu requires more action.
The group made the assertion in a statement signed by its spokesperson Emmanuel Adejo, released to DAILY POST on Thursday.
Adejo maintained that the recent onslaught against corruption by the Tinubu’s administration is not targeted at members of opposition parties alone.
He added that some members of the APC are also being prosecuted.
The group used the opportunity to throw its weight behind President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s fight against corruption and corrupt persons in Nigeria.
Adejo said the fight against corruption embarked upon by the present administration requires more action.
On behalf of the forum, he appealed to Nigerians to support Tinubu’s renewed fight against corruption in the country.
He also advised Nigerians who engage in corrupt activities to desist forthwith else risk serving jail terms.
He said, “The nature and character of corruption in Nigeria, driven by politically exposed persons (PEPs) requires a much more drastic and robust approach.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has demonstrated unwavering commitment to overcoming the challenge of corruption in Nigeria by masterfully demonstrating his ability to differentiate clearly between partisan politics and governance. Corruption must be recompensed through appropriate punishment and diligent prosecution is the key in this regards.
“The fight against corruption in Nigeria requires a paradigm shift and bolder actions to effectively address its deep- rooted and multifaceted nature”.
