President Muhammadu Buhari has appealed to lawyers to support the anti-corruption war of his administration. Buhari said this at the Kaduna branch of the Nigerian Bar Association’s Law Week with the theme, “The fight against corruption: the role of the Bar and the Bench,” in Kaduna.
He reminded the lawyers how some of their colleagues almost frustrated a similar crusade he embarked upon as the military head of state in 1984.
He noted that his second coming should receive the necessary support from lawyers to succeed so that the country would be rid of corruption.
The President who was represented on the occasion by his Senior Special Adviser on Legal Matters, Prof. Adamu Usman, said his second coming should receive the necessary support from lawyers to succeed so that the country would be rid of corruption.
He also urged the lawyers to play their part in ensuring that corruption was kicked out of the country, “the way the military is pushing out Boko Haram insurgency and other security challenges out of the country.”
nmi of blessed memory and a few other senior lawyers broke the rank with their colleagues by supporting the tribunals and participating in their trials.
