The Federal Government said on Thursday that it had recovered 40 brand new SUV cars from a former permanent secretary.
It said that the unnamed former permanent secretary appropriated the vehicles to himself after leaving office
It, therefore, said it would be wrong for it to be accused of fighting corruption without any clear strategy.
Rather, it said it was being guided by a well-articulated strategy in its fight against corruption in the country.
The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, stated this in a statement.
Mohammed said,
“The strategy has proven so effective and that it has led to, among others, the recovery of 40 brand new SUVs and other vehicles from one former Permanent Secretary who single-handedly appropriated the vehicles to himself when he left office.”He said the Federal Government was not just fixated on prosecution alone but was also taking preventive measures to make corruption unattractive
