EFCC Should Exercise Fairness in Its Work

ALL-ROUND JUSTICE
There has been a lot of outcry on the current anti-corruption efforts of President Buhari, with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in particular alleging that only their members and sympathisers are being investigated and put on trial by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). There is a cry of political persecution out there, which we should not dismiss just like that. However, my advice would NOT be that EFCC should let indicted PDP members off the hook. Rather, I would urge the EFCC to also investigate the petitions against non-PDP members and prosecute those who are indicted too. Fairness.
