Oyo State Governor Abiola Ajimobi has said every
Nigerian is corrupt in one way or the other either
by financial misconduct, attitudinal corruption or
the inability to restraint oneself from certain
corrupt action.
Reacting to President Muhammadu Buhari’s war
against corruption, he told newsmen at the
National Secretariat of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), Abuja:
“We are looking at corruption in a global
perspective as against just taking money.
If you look at it generally, you will see that
virtually every Nigeria is corrupt, virtually
everybody is corrupt in one way or the
other either attitudinally, financially or
socially, and this, we believe should be
looked into.
“We believe corruption is more than just
taking money, I think it is attitudinal. Any
time you do what you are not supposed to
do, is corruption. Sometime you can even
enlarge it to mean indiscipline, inability to
control yourself, to discipline yourself
against selfish tendencies of wanting to
take what does not belong to you. Even
not doing your job is corruption, for taking
salaries monthly and not coming to work
and being idle is corruption.”
