Nigeria Vice President Yemi Osinbajo says that the anti-corruption fight of
this present administration should not be seen as one directed at a
particular ethnic group in the country. Osinbajo made said this when
some Yoruba traditional rulers paid
him a courtesy call at the state House yesterday August 27th.
"You hear people saying that the reason that man is
being tried for corruption is because he is Yoruba, he is from the
North, and he is from South South. We must not encourage those
kinds of ideas. If a person steals, he ought to be punished and made to
return what he has stolen because the money does not belong to him. The
money is what is to be used for the training of our young people, who
are in school or hospital and for the building of roads. There is no family in Yoruba land that allows thieves. If you are a
thief, we will expose you. We should support the effort of the
administration to fight corruption ” he said
