The pretence of Nigerians against Buhari’s government amazes me – Sagay

Professor Itse Sagay, the Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption (PACAC), has swiped at Nigerians for criticizing President Buhari and the change brought to the war on corruption.

Speaking during a solidarity visit to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Wednesday, Sagay blamed the elites who benefit from corruption as the forces behind the criticism of the war on corruption.

“When Nigerians pretend by asking what difference has his government brought in the fight against corruption, it amazes me.

“For me, it is a sign of bad faith being expressed by the elites who were the beneficiaries of corruption.

“So, they are undergoing the pains of having to earn their living rather than simply collecting unearned money, easy money that used to go round the country.

“These are people who were building edifices without sign of employment of any sort,” Sagay said.
