Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has said that the pursuit of the common good requires a collective condemnation and exposure of corruption and corrupt practices, which he termed cancer to the country.

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has said that the pursuit of the common good requires a collective condemnation and exposure of corruption and corrupt practises, which he termed cancer to the country.

Senior Special Assistant to the Vice President on Media and Publicity, Laolu Akande, disclosed this in a statement he signed late Friday titled ‘Only leaders inspired by higher purpose, not personal profit, can bring about national transformation-Osinbajo.’ He added that the pursuit of the common good must “involve a relentless pursuit of integrity and transparency of public officers, we must think through the systems that will reduce human discretion in public-facing institutions. So we must, as a collective, condemn and call out corruption and corrupt practises.”

He also posited that transformational leadership, particularly in a multi-ethnic and multi-faceted country like Nigeria, is needed across all levels of government and spheres of society. Its primary focus is the pursuit of the common good to ensure fairness, justice, unity and development in a nation.

Rid on pastor.

This guy again smh 🤦

Please exclude the common man and face the elites that institutionalize it. In short form a ministry of corruption and a supreme court for corruption. It will not work untill you put some highly placed corrupt elites to the gallons. Then u are talking.

What has he been doing for over 6years on the office? What is he waiting for to call it out? Or another strategical sellout to 2023 presidential election? Don't these men have any other to offer than fighting unending corruption?

For your mouth ko? Continue...

This cancer called corruption has eaten very deep into the fabric of Nigeria and all Nigerians are directly or indirectly victims of this scourge..Everyone knows of it but nobody wants to stop it ..Every government official likes to talk against it but also part take in it
