Buhari Govt Corrupt, Clueless – Bauchi Gov., Mohammed

• “I think the federal government has lost any idea to grow the economy. What they are best known for is the blame game”

Bala Mohammed, governor of Bauchi state, says claims by the current administration to be fighting corruption are spurious.

There was no tangible result to show that financial impropriety and malfeasance are being dealt with in the country, Mohammed told newsmen on Thursday.

Mohammed said corruption is now more pronounced and entrenched in the country and that some people are treated “as gods” as they believe they are untouchable.

He also said concerns and reservations expressed by governors from southern part of the country regarding appointments are legitimate and should be addressed.

Mohammed said this in reaction to southern governors resolutions at a meeting held in Asaba, Delta state capital, last week.

He said Nigeria’s economy would ccontinue to suffer unless there is equity and fairness in leadership.

“I think the federal government has lost any idea to grow the economy. What they are best known for is the blame game. They are not even fighting the corruption they claimed to be fighting,” Mohammed said.

“There’s more corruption; perceptions are built that there are sacred cows; there are the gods in this country who cannot be touched.”
