President Goodluck Jonathan on Monday in Abuja assured Nigerians that he is fully ready to fight corruption with everything at his disposal, notwithstanding the challenges of doing so.
“My administration will fight corruption and associated social vices until they are exterminated from our body polity,” President Jonathan said at the opening of a conference by the Nigerian Institute of Management.
The conference has the theme, “Moving Nigeria forward through strategic transformation.”
The President said the realisation of the nation’s vision of being among the first 20 biggest economies in the world depended on Nigerians’ ability to find solutions to the several challenges facing the nation.
“To set this country on the path of greatness and prosperity, (the) complete elimination of all forms of corrupt practices must be in the front burner and our collective consciousness always. You will agree with me that a great nation is the reward of great leadership. This is our motivation and value proposition.
“Our greatness and prosperity as a country is dependent on our vision, hardwork and patriotism. We must build strong pillars of values and develop positive attitudes even as we build a 21st century country for the benefit of generations yet unborn. I am confident that this institute will partner us and other stakeholders in this important task.
“The Nigerian project is faced with several challenges from every facet. We must find solutions to these challenges if our resolve to be counted among the first 20 most modern economies by the year 2020 is to materialise. I urge all Nigerians to see this project as their own so that together we can realise our dream and leave a legacy that is worthy of emulation by our future generations,” the president stressed.
