truth of the matter is that corruption in Nigeria is systemic – Osinbajo

While the Acting President insisted that corruption had permeated the fabrics of the society, including the judiciary, the CJN asked the executive arm of government to prove that corruption exists in the judiciary. Similarly, Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption, PACAC, Prof. Itse Sagay, fingered the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, and the Nigerian Customs Service, NCS, as cesspools of corruption, even as the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki, said the fight against corruption should not revolve around one person. The quartet spoke at the opening ceremony of a two-day event, entitled National Dialogue on Corruption, organized by the Office of the Vice President in collaboration with PACAC, held at the Old Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
