Fight aganst corruption is not ethnic based - Osinbajo

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo says that the anti-corruption
fight of this present administration should not be seen as
one directed at a particular ethnic group in the country.
Osinbajo made said this when some Yoruba traditional
rulers paid him a courtesy call at the state House
yesterday August 27th.
"You hear people saying that the reason that man
is being tried for corruption is because he is Yoruba,
he is from the North, and he is from South South.
We must not encourage those kinds of ideas. If a
person steals, he ought to be punished and made to
return what he has stolen because the money does
not belong to him. The money is what is to be used
for the training of our young people, who are in
school or hospital and for the building of roads.
There is no family in Yoruba land that allows
thieves. If you are a thief, we will expose you. We
should support the effort of the administration to
fight corruption ” he said
