Buhari Government Want All Looters To Return Stolen Funds

Governor-elect of Kaduna State and former FCT Minister, Nasir el-Rufai, has said that the incoming government of Muhammadu Buhari would ask corrupt politicians to return every kobo stolen by them.

“We will politely ask those who stole government money to return the funds. This is because the people, who are in government now, are there to work for themselves. But the APC government is made up of people who are ready to work for the masses and the betterment of the country.

He also said that the Buhari would inherit a huge debt from the Goodluck Jonathan government.

He however said those (politicians) who were not corrupt had no cause to fear.

The governor-elect told executive members of the National Union of Textile Garments and Tailoring Workers of Nigeria, who visited him in Kaduna, that such politicians must be ready to return all ill-gotten funds after May 29.

“We will work with the textile unions to ensure that the lives of the average Nigerians get better.”

The ex-minister decried the poor state of the textile industry in Kaduna State and gave assurance that he and his team would revamp it.

He lamented the current employment figure of 1,600 people in the textile sector, saying it's unacceptable. El-Rufai added that the textile industry in Kaduna alone used to employ about 33,000 workers.
