President Muhammadu Buhari had recorded successes - Saraki



Senate President, Bukola Saraki, on Monday spoke on the fight against corruption in Nigeria.
Saraki said the war under President Muhammadu Buhari had recorded successes and that all Nigerians must play their part to help government and anti-corruption agencies.
In a release by his media office, Monday evening, Saraki answered some questions on what the legislature was doing to curb corruption and highlighted a few things Nigerians must know.
Excerpts:
#1 On the Relationship Between Corruption and Development:
“What got me thinking was the chicken and egg puzzle that that statement immediately raises. Do countries become more corrupt because the people are poor or are the people poor because their country is corrupt? We may never be able to answer this question to everybody’s satisfaction.”
#2 On Why Corruption Needs to be Viewed Through the Lens of ‘Human Development’:
“If the purpose of government is to improve the quality of lives of its people, then any conversation about corruption must focus primarily on how it affects human development, whether it is health, wealth or education.”
