An elder statesman and Chairman of Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) Board
of Trustees, Balarabe Musa has said there were only two types of people
that are not corrupt in Nigeria.
According to him, the whole
system of governance in Nigeria is corrupt, which made it very difficult
to identify individuals that are not corrupt across the country.
Balarabe
Musa made the comment in Kaduna while reacting to the comment made by
President Muhammadu Buhari about the corrupt system in the country.
“In fact, the whole system is corrupt, Nobody knows who is not corrupt in Nigeria,” he said. “The
only two people that are not corrupt in Nigeria are those who have no
access to corruption and those, who by their nature, will rather die
than to be corrupt but this constitute less than 00.1 percent of
Nigerians.
“So, the corrupt people are either corrupt knowingly or unknowingly, intentionally or unintentionally or somehow.”
The elder statesman further explained that those who prefer to die than to be corrupt were very small in number in the country.
“These
are negligible few in Nigeria and since the system is made up of
corrupt people who always like to steal either knowingly or unknowingly,
you expect all sorts of things to happen in Nigeria. We are only
surviving like animals in the forest,” he said.
