Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is set to commence a mediation tour of States in the Niger Delta region as part of efforts at bringing the crisis there under control.
The federal government has blamed the incessant destruction of oil facilities by militants in the Niger Delta as being directly responsible for the persistence recession in the Nigerian economy in the third quarter of 2016.
Magu’s return to the EFCC saw him more toughened and increasingly more determined to confront and crush the monster that has been fingered as having more or less brought Nigeria to her knees. Under Lamorde, he became even more visible as the nemesis of the perpetrators of corrupt acts; and as in the Ribadu years, significant gains made under this regime can be rightly attributed to him.
Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo is expected to deliver an anti-terrorism lecture: “Destroying Boko Haram and the Rebuilding of Nigeria’s North-East”, at a seminar which will hold at the Harvard University, Boston, in the U.S. on Thursday.
President Muhammadu Buhari and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo are currently attending an economic retreat with other cabinet members to discuss the state of the nation’s economy and ways to get the country out of recession.
