Journalists for Democratic Rights has asked President Bola Tinubu to set up an independent judicial panel of enquiry to probe the allegations of corruption in the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited and the World Bank operations.
The group said corruption is at the core of Nigeria’s underdevelopment and the root cause of violence and extremism that has taken a foothold in many parts of the country. The media group described the two revelations on the World Bank and the NNPC as the “biggest scam in African recent history”.According to JODER, Tinubu is expected to suspend NNPC officials whose names have been associated with the scam.“The NNPC Group Chief Executive Officer, Mele Kyari and the Chief Executive Officer, Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority, Farouk Ahmed should be suspended immediately,” the group said.
The group said the disclosures of the minister and Dangote have brutally shaken the faith of Nigerians beyond measure, raising the fear that there would be no chance of redemption.
