FORMER Federal Commissioner for
Information and elder statesman, Chief
Edwin Clark, has called on President
Goodluck Jonathan to, as a matter of
urgency, declare state of emergency on
corruption, saying he must put in place
more drastic measures to tackle it.
Speaking, yesterday, during the church
service held for him on his 86th
birthday at the St. James’ Anglican
Church, (Anglican Communion), Asokoro,
Abuja, the Ijaw leader noted that
corruption did not start with the
administration of President Jonathan,
adding that everyone must be involved in
the fight against corruption.
Chief Clark argued that the government
of Jonathan had made bold steps to
address the problem of corruption by
exposing those who were alleged to have
stolen the nation’s money, especially
the fuel subsidy funds.
