State House, Abuja - President Muhammadu Buhari says despite holding numerous public offices in the country, nobody can accuse him of getting involved in corruption.
A statement released by presidential spokesman Femi Adesina on Wednesday, June 30, indicates that the president said this while receiving members of the Muhammadu Buhari/Osinbajo (MBO) dynamic support group.
He said:
“Thank God that over the years, they can’t accuse me of corruption. And I’ve been everything; Governor, Minister of Petroleum Resources, Head of State, President and in my second term."
Legit.ng gathers that the group had visited the State House to present a compendium of five years achievements of the Buhari-led administration.
President Buhari thanked members of the group for spending their energy, time and resources to support him without being asked or forced by anyone.
Ethnicity and religion not to be blamed for Nigeria’s problems
Meanwhile, the president also submitted that ethnicity and religion are not to blame for Nigeria’s problems but the people.
He reiterated that the current polarisation and inherent injustices in the country are neither fuelled by ethnicity nor religion but by Nigerians themselves.
His words:
“Our problem is not ethnicity or religion, it is ourselves."
