Anti-corruption war: Cleric warns against selective treatment

By Enyim Enyim

ONITSHA—A clergy man and general overseer of the Bible -based church, Rev. Jeremiah Nwachukwu yesterday advised President Muhammed Buhari not to witch hunt the opposition in the course of his anti- corruption ‘war’ .

While further advising him to give room for constructive criticism from opposition, he noted that it would enable Nigerians to enjoy the full blast of democracy under his regime.

“He should pick good policies from opposition. He has done well in anti-corruption war, but he should go the whole log. He should start from the root. He should prosecute corrupt people from his party, All Progressives Congress, APC. There should be no sacred cow” said Rev Nwachukwu.

The cleric also asked the president to respond to the demands of members of Indigenous Peoples of Biafra, IPOB, instead of killing and incarcerating them.
