President Muhammadu Buhari returned to Nigeria yesterday after spending 15 days in the UK.
While speaking with journalists at the Nnamdi Azikiwe international airport, the president vowed to imprison people who have stolen the nation’s fund.
However, People’s Democratic Party(PDP) member, Reno Omokri has faulted the president’s statement on jailing looters. According to him, Buhari hasn’t done anything to former senate minority leader, Godswill Akpabio who has a case with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission(EFCC). He noted that Akpabio who ‘EFCC called a thief’s was hailed by Nigerian president instead.
The author also criticised the fact that some other members of Buhari’s party accused of corruption have not been punished, therefore the president is one to ‘hail’ not ‘jail’ looters.
He wrote via Twitter:
Buhari vows to jail looters?
* Buhari who HAILED Akpabio who EFCC claim is a thief?
* Buhari who HAILED the NNPC boss who awarded $25 billion contracts without due process?
* Buhari who HAILED Amaechi who is indicted over ₦97 billion theft?He meant HAIL not JAIL #RenosDarts

The thing is that no one is perfect but this government is really trying, let us try to criticize less and help make Nigeria great.
