Jonathan and Yar’adua Didn’t Build A Single Road – Osinbajo Claims

 

Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo on Friday said that the federal government did not build “a single new road” in the last 10 years. The late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua and former President Goodluck Jonathan presided over the country within that period. 

Speaking at the pastors and leaders retreat of the Fountain of Life Church in Ilupeju, Lagos, Osinbajo said corruption in the country was not caused because by a few individuals, but that the entire system was built around lack of integrity. 

He expressed confidence that the country would be great again but noted that the foundation for the greatness had to be laid with a lot of pains. “Unless we tackle graft, we may not be able to achieve something,” he said. “The federal government in the past 10 years could not build a single new road, not repairing existing ones alone. “Now we have a president who will not steal money and who will not allow anybody to steal money.” Commenting on the N6 billion that the last administration spent on a new residence for the vice-president, he said Aguda House, the current official residence, is up to standard with enough space. He said the present administration would complete it but consider putting it to other use.  

hmmm, i find this hard to believe!
