Former Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, has declared his support for President Muhammadu Buhari’s reelection bid.
Ribadu told newsmen that the president was doing a good job and advised Nigerians to re-elect him in 2019.
He said: “Today, President Buhari is our President and I agree with him totally and I am comfortable with the leadership he is giving this country.
“If there is anything under, I can also make my own contribution, I am very much prepared to do so.”
Speaking on the non-confirmation of Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibrahim Magu, Ribadu said fighting corruption was the most difficult job to do.
Ribadu, a former presidential candidate on the platform of the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN said, “This is sad part of our country. To even get things done properly and correctly becomes almost impossible.
“I don’t see any reason they will not confirm him and allow him to do the work properly. I totally agree with the federal government in allowing him to do this work.
“Whatever you can say about Ibrahim Magu, you cannot take away the fact that he is an honest person and a very courageous person.
“These are some of the requirements you need in an anti corruption agency. He is doing extremely well.
“I know him and I know how the place works. I know this difficult in doing this work for our country."
