Tag kalu says buharis anti corruption war not selective

A statement by Tag Kalu, a Nigerian journalist and commentator, that President Muhammadu Buhari's anti-corruption war is not selective. Here's a breakdown of his argument:

Tag Kalu's argument is that while it is true that the Buhari administration has been criticized for being selective in its anti-corruption efforts, this criticism is misplaced. According to him, the administration has been consistent in its pursuit of corrupt individuals, regardless of their political affiliation or social status.

He points out that the administration has prosecuted and convicted several high-profile individuals, including former governors, senators, and other politicians from both the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). He also notes that the administration has not spared any individual, regardless of their political leaning, in its anti-corruption efforts.

Tag Kalu also argues that the administration's anti-corruption efforts are not limited to political opponents, but also extend to individuals from the private sector and civil society. He cites examples of private sector individuals and civil society leaders who have been investigated and prosecuted for corruption.

Furthermore, Tag Kalu argues that the administration's anti-corruption efforts are not driven by political vendetta, but rather by a genuine commitment to tackling corruption and promoting transparency and accountability in government. He points out that the administration has established several anti-corruption agencies, including the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission (ICPC), which are working together to combat corruption.

In conclusion, Tag Kalu's argument is that while it is true that the Buhari administration has been criticized for being selective in its anti-corruption efforts, this criticism is misplaced. He argues that the administration has been consistent in its pursuit of corrupt individuals, regardless of their political affiliation or social status, and that its anti-corruption efforts are driven by a genuine commitment to tackling corruption and promoting transparency and accountability in government.
