I’m a strong advocate of anti-corruption fight, says Shekarau

Ibrahim Shekarau, former governor of Kano state, has declared that he is an ardent supporter of the anti-corruption efforts of the federal government.

The former minister of education lauded the anti-corruption fight by President Muhammadu Buhari while speaking with journalists in Sokoto on Monday.

I’m a strong advocate of anti-corruption fight, says Shekarau

“The efforts by the president to fight corruption in all its ramifications is good for Nigeria. Anybody, who gets any money fraudulently should be arrested, thoroughly investigated and prosecuted,” he said.

“I am a strong advocate of anti-corruption fight, as I set up an anti corruption and public complaints commission in Kano State in 2005.”

The chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), however, cautioned against selective justice in the anti-corruption war.

Shekarau said that no corrupt person should be spared in the anti-corruption war of the present government.

“Nobody should be above the law in this direction; there should also be respect, adherence and respect for the rule of law.

“You are innocent until you are proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt,” he said.

On security, Shekarau called for improved funding of the nation’s security agencies.

This, he noted, would ensure the provision of ultramodern weapons, logistics, training, retraining, as well as the need to improve their welfare.

On agriculture, the former governor called for the reintroduction of commodity boards in the country.

He said: “This will add value to farming, boost food security and encourage farmers. Food security is next to nothing and any nation that fails to provide it remains weak and vulnerable.”

On politics, Shekarau said, “PDP will bounce back and reclaim its lost glory in 2019″.
