The Methodist Church Nigeria has urged the Federal Government to fight its war against corruption no matter who is affected.

The Prelate of the church, Dr Samuel Uche, gave the advice at Dodds Methodist Cathedral of the MCN Diocese of Uzuakoli, in the Bende Local Government Area of Abia State while addressing the 25th Synod of the church.

“This should not have been so. Whoever is corrupt should be seen to be corrupt regardless of the party he or she belongs to. Our fight against corruption should be a holistic and a genuine one”. Uche admitted that things were not going smoothly for churches in Nigeria due to harassment and intimidation. He urged churches to unite “in times like this, to practise the golden rule of loving our neighbours as ourselves.”

Eighth Senate and the Anti-Corruption War - Vanguard NewsIn May 2017, there were strong indications that Nigeria’s suspension from the EGMONT Group — a united body of 159 Financial Intelligence Units (FIUs) that “provides a platform for the secure exchange of expertise and financial intelligence to combat money laundering and terrorist financing” — might lead to an outright expulsion. This was following the refusal by certain institutions tasked with fighting corruption to allow the Nigeria Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU) to become autonomous. That same month, the 8th Senate, under the leadership of Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, began to take steps to ensure that Nigeria was still a part of the EGMONT Group.
