UPP supports President's anti-corruption crusade



Abuja – The United Progressive Party (UPP) has commended President Muhammadu Buhari for his determination
to fight corruption in the country.

The National Chairman of the party, Chief Chekwas Okorie, made the commendation in a statement issued in Abuja on Wednesday.

He said that the party was happy with the progress made by the All Progressives Congress (APC) led administration to fight corruption.

Okorie said that “so far, the Federal Government had been transparent in the fight against corruption. “We do not share the opinion that there is any form of partiality in the way the anti-corruption crusade is being prosecuted.

“Any person no matter how highly placed against whom a prima facie case has been established for playing any role whatsoever that is
considered corrupt by the relevant agencies of government must be made to face the law.’’

According to him, majority of Nigerians are in solidarity with Buhari in his effort to stamp out corruption and make corrupt practices
unattractive and unprofitable.

He then urged the EFCC, ICPC and Police to “expeditiously investigate the numerous petitions written by Nigerians before the Commission and
backed by credible evidences.
