President Muhammadu Buhari says his government is working diligently in building up cases against those that have been accused of stealing government money. He stated this while hosting the General Overseer of Foursquare Gospel Church, Rev Felix Meduoye and his delegation at the state house yesterday November 16.
Buhari said his government is gathering evidence and facts before formal charges are brought against the suspected thieves. He added that the war against corruption will be fought within the ambit of the law
“Under military rule, people could be arrested and held on the basis of suspicion, but in a true democracy, anyone accused of an offense must be presumed innocent till pronounced guilty by a court of law,” he said
