Charles Soludo, former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), says the Muhammadu Buhari administration is only fighting the symptoms of corruption.

Soludo, who spoke at the fourth “Progressive Governance Lecture Series” in Kaduna on Thursday, said for the current war against corruption to be successful and enduring, it must be tackled from the systemic level rather than just dealing with the symptoms.

He added that the Nigerian economy is stuck on a slippery muddy length and would need to be totally reset.

Speaking at the lecture, which was organised by the 23 governors of the All Progressives Congress (APC), and chaired by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Soludo said the fight against corruption should be targeted at fixing the system.

“I feel we are fighting corruption at the symptomatic manifestation level, at the transaction level. For the fight against corruption to become enduring and to achieve a purpose, we need to get to the systemic level,” he said.

“The way we are going about it is fantastic. You finish, you close here, the other place is leaking. The system, as currently structured, you can only fight the symptoms.”
