It is very true that this House was asked by the President to assist him in the fight against corruption when the names of individuals who are facing charges – in fact economic crime charges – in court came before a Committee of this House. It is right to reject their appointment so that all of us and those public officers can know that Parliament is very serious in the fight against corruption.
