The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal, has described corruption as the main opposition to President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.

He described corruption as an unusual but powerful opposition.

According to a statement issued on Monday, the SGF made this remark in Abuja during a meeting with a delegation of the Coalition of Progressive Political Parties led by Mr. Ibrahim Bashir of the Peoples Democratic Movement.

Lawal, however, said that with President Buhari’s honesty and integrity, the Federal Government would win the anti-corruption war, adding that Nigerians and God were behind the present government.

He commended the efforts of the other political parties supporting the Federal Government in the anti-corruption war and stated that their position was driven by patriotic reasons.

The SGF stressed that the ‘ethical revolution’ of the present administration should be encouraged so that Nigerians could benefit from the change agenda.

The statement quoted Lawal as saying, “What the Federal Government is now focusing on is good governance that will bring rapid development and growth to the nation, irrespective of political affiliations. Corruption is President Buhari’s main opposition, rather than a political party.

“I reiterate my admiration and support to the Governor of Ebonyi State, David Umahi, for the impressive development that is taking place in Ebonyi State, despite being a member of the Peoples Democratic Party.
