Former
Nigerian President, Olusegun Obasanjo, on Wednesday urged President Muhammadu
Buhari and other African leaders to ensure that there is no hiding place for
treasury looters.
Obasanjo
made the call while speaking during the opening ceremony of a five-day biennial
international conference organised by the Faculty of Arts, University of
Ibadan, Oyo state.
“There
should be no respite, there should be no hiding place for treasury looters. And
good people with ideas must come forward to be counted, get elected or
supported by good people to grow the economy and provide solid infrastructure.
“African
citizens on their part will have to create the popular pressures that will put
African leaders to address the challenges of leadership, fiscal and economic,
managerial, infrastructure, industrial and technological deficits,” Obasanjo
said.
