Alleged corruption: Group commends Tinubu for swiff action
By Dorcas Jonah
A group, Civil Society Group for Good Governance (CSGGG) has commended President Bola Tinubu, for taking a swift action to suspend those involved in the N438 million contract scandal.
Mr Ogakwu Dominic, Convener, CSGGG said this during a news conference on Thursday in Abuja.
He said that Tinubu`s action shows that the government under his watch was committed to nipping corruption in the bud.
Dominic said CSGGG partners with the government and other stakeholders in the discharge of her responsibilities.
”Our attention has been drawn to the recent allegations of fraudulent activities besieging the ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation and her minister.
”Our concern however is the baton of judgment it has on other persons who are in no way connected to the allegations, hence the need for this new conference.
”As watchdogs of the society, we are not partisan to social media judgment, court or condemnation, we do not buy into activities of people casting aspersions,” he said.
Dominic said the group condemns the discordant public opinion regarding the Minister of Interior, Tunji-Ojo’s involvement in the alleged N438 million Humanitarian Ministry contract.
Dominic urge the Anti-Graft agencies to be transparent and diligent in their investigation as the general public and the civil society community are interested in the outcome of the matter.(NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
