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 was still working with this government nothing will happen to him.
“The senate president has EFCC cases that isn’t progressing. Almost everyone in this administration have unprogressive cases.
“Oftentimes the war against corruption is a political fight back, because if corruption is to be fought truthfully a transparent and accountable systems needs to be setup.”
