Seven Undeniable Ways GEJ Fought Corruption by Natureboyraph(m): 11:27am On Jan 15, 2015 |
President Goodluck Jonathan has a special approach to fighting corruption. Some find it ineffective. But due to it Nigeria has ‘defeated’ 8 countries to become the 136th most transparent country in the world. Do you think Buhari can perform better, if elected? Full Details:- /p30DXZ-F0 Here are 7 things Goodluck Jonathan did to reduce corruption: 1. Corruption in the agricultural sector ended within 90 days This issue was solved with a help of information technologies and a simple cell phone. The Federal Government provided an e-wallet installed phones to farmers. Now instead of getting supplies from the suppliers, the authorities pay the money directly on the farmers’ phones. The farmers buy the fertilizers themselves. Due to it N50 billion were blocked from fertilizer money thieves. Nigeria has saved more than N700 billion on food import due to success in the agricultural sector. 2. Peaceful and credible elections President Jonathan has mentioned for several times that “electoral corruption is the mother of all corruptions”. In 2010 governorship elections were acclaimed by both local and international observers to be free, fair and credible in 5 states: Edo state, Ondo state, Anambra state, Ekiti state, Osun state. It is important to mention that only one of these states has been ‘secured’ by the president’s party. The major opposition force (the APC) won in 2 states. The APGA and the LP won the other 2. 3. 60,000 “ghost” workers exposed A new system for paying salaries, the IPPIS system, was implemented. Since 2012 it helped to discover more than 60,000 of ‘ghost’ workers. Every year these fake workers were stealing N160 billion. 4. Reforms in the import sectors Reforms in the import sector allowed to block loopholes. Government removed taxes on economic boosting goods – goods that make the economy grow. 5. Stealing money from governmental contracts became harder In 2007 the public procurement act was implemented. Between 2009-2013 it prevented N558 billion from getting to contract thieves. 180 contract-stealing companies were discovered and punished. 6. The most controversial bill in Nigeria’s history The “Petroleum Industrial Bill (PIB)” was created in 2008. It is a bill that could block all the corruption loopholes in the petroleum sector of economy. At that time it was rejected. On 18th July 2012, President Jonathan resent the bill. Unfortunately, it has not passed the legislation processes since then. 7. EFCC developed Between 2012 and 2014 427 cases were prosecuted by the EFCC. Fraud rates has fallen from N495 billion to N300 billion. Most of the cases were: Internet frauds, fee frauds and commercial cases. Do you think Buhari can perform better, if elected?

Enough of this plastic and cosmetics surgery to corruption under jona. Explain this Before yar'adua died subsidy was just 900 bill which was really inflated. Your guy under 1 year it jumped to 2.3 trillion. How do you justify this. Kerosene wich I still byis soLD for 145 per liter .but they still claim they are subsidizing it and that it is sold for 50 naira this we all know is a lie. Looking at the so-called airport rremodeling. It is a total scam.which have you been to recently .the value of money paid is not reflected in the quality of what is on ground..tha MM1 and MM2 they are below world standard in terms of furnishings, aesthetic and facilities. The central AC system breaks down often. You talked about agriculture. I will say in terms of NPK for farmers yes it is a little better than before ,but there is still corruption.during the allocation period. With the huge amount of money being claimed by the agric mminister been spent on rice.we ought to be eating locally made rice now. I bet you.. During this festive period how many saw this rice. I can tell you authoritatively 97% of Nigerians eat Thai rice.take the award of the CCTV system in abuja.what is the status of it today? Take the military for example with close to 5 trillion what have we achieved This was the same army which was without such funding during the seirra Leone and Liberian crisis dealt with the rebels whose skill and manpower were far more advance than that of boko haram. Now tell me is not corruption . Credit to realnaija. . . In addition can someone please tell these TANoids the secret of china's success in the fight against corruption? . THE DEATH SENTENCE upon conviction. Thanks |
