Senate President Bukola Saraki has said that the current fight against corruption has not “yielded much success” because it is rippled with sensationalism.
Speaking in Abuja at the launch of ‘Antidotes for Corruption: The Nigerian Story’, a book written by Dino Melaye, a senator from Kogi west, the senate president advised that fight against corruption be focused on deterrence and not punishment.
“I am convinced that why our fight against corruption has not yielded much success is that we have favoured punishment over deterence,” he said.
”We must review our approaches by building our institutions to make it difficult for people to carry out corrupt practices.
“We must fight corruption with sincerity, and not fight symptoms… unlike the five-minute sensationalism we have now. It must not be based on individuals but on institutions.
