Grand Corruption Under Jonathan Cannot Be Forgotten- Osinbajo

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has justified the continued reference to the extent of corruption under the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan.

Osinbajo spoke at the 10th birthday colloquium held in Lagos in honour of a National leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Bola Tinubu.

According to him, there need to highlight what he described as grand corruption in the last administration because of the impact on the present state of the country’s economy.

“Nigeria is where it is today because of the corruption that was perpetrated by previous administration.

“We will talk about grand corruption, ” recalling the Yoruba proverb that translates thus: Frog says when discussion gets to the issue of tail, we should skip it. He says we must ensure Nigeria never takes such road (of corruption) again!.

” If we do not kill corruption, corruption will kill us,” Osinbajo stated.

While admitting that the best times of the country are yet to come in accordance with the change promised by the APC, Osinbajo said “we are getting better and better”
