Ayade Meets Buhari At State House, Express Support for Buhari’s Anti-corruption Crusade
Governor Ben Ayade, Cross River state governor, has visited President Muhammadu Buhari at the presidential villa in Abuja on January 13, Wednesday.
The governor while speaking with the State House correspondents expressed his support for Buhari’s anti-corruption crusade, describing it as perfect.
He stated that with the poverty rate in Nigeria despite its large natural resources, any serious administration must take the issue of corruption seriously just as President Buhari was doing.
Governor Ayade said the ongoing efforts had commenced giving up results by providing the country the kind of international image that it needed.
He said: “The anti-corruption war is perfect. Those who know the pains, hardship and frustrations that Nigerians have passed through will agree with me on this.
“As a nation, there is so much in terms of natural resources and the people are so poor.
“It is only obvious that any serious government must take the issue of corruption seriously, and I think that is why today Nigeria is beginning to have national and international image that looks like Nigeria is getting prepared for business.
“That is why investments are flowing into Cross River State, that is a sign that the anti-corruption war is actually working and it is giving Nigeria the international image that we need.”
The governor added that he visited Buhari to praise him for some of his policies that had also helped Cross River state fantasticly.
