There’s a misunderstanding of Transparency International Report. Our Report is not reality. It’s just what some people think about corruption in Nigeria.
This is not measuring what @officialEFCC
And @ICPC_PE are doing because they are doing a fantastic job.

Reality is, the Buhari administration is making steady progress in the War Against Corruption. FACT!
Nigerians on their part, are supporting the anti-corruption stance of the present admin.
Me: That’s the reality, the media misinformation not withstanding. #NigeriaGoSurvive

I agree we should continue to work against corruption. But as long as OBJ and Oby are the referee, Nigeria under Buhari will not be marked fairly.
We are not asking for special favours. We need the facts. Fairness. Let them tell it as it is.

There’s corruption in every nation. But their opposition do not go about singing about it and attacking anti corruption agencies that are trying to enforce accountability.
We are who we tell the world we are. Let’s all support @officialEFCC, @ICPC_PE, etc. in their efforts.

1000 people is not enough to draw a conclusion but TI said they did not interview anyone in the manner the UNDP did. They gathered information from the media. Please read their report.

It’s because you’re still corrupt and you have not been caught. Soon, you will be.
However, Transparency International says EFCC and other graft agencies are doing a fantastic job. Swallow that.
