SURVEY: Do you agree with opposition claims that the Buhari government is using the EFCC against them?
The Buhari administration swore at inception to hunt down people it alleged were ruining the country’s development through corrupt practices. It has since then made several high profile arrests including politicians, civil servants and judges who, at the moment, are being prosecuted for charges largely bordering on stealing and money laundering.
However, members of opposition, especially of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) claim that the anti-corruption is largely targeted at its members for being very vocal against perceived short-comings of the Buhari-led All Progressives Congress (APC) government.

The anti-corruption fight is targeted at corrupt government officials, any of them who isn’t corrupt won’t be affected, for PDP and others to be complaining, it simply means they are corrupt, hence, they must be fought by EFCC, DSS and Police.

Buhari’s fight against corruption is bias and sentimental, above all we have unqualified Magu who’s coordinating the nonsense EFCC is performing, the fight is more like revenge, which is targeted at wrecking opposition parties. APC wants Nigeria to be a one party country, so they can oppress us, that’s why they are using EFCC to go after other parties while their highly corrupt party members get soft landing

You can choose to interpret the fight anyhow, it won’t move the government and EFCC an inch. Our leaders are very corrupt, although some APC members to are corrupt but the corrupt people are domicile in other political parties, PDP is the father of them all

After all, efcc is the creation of pdp, so using against them is not a bad idea, let their creation recreate them

This question to me is not needful, whether he is fighting pdp or not with his corruption machine gun , the major thing is that we can’t allow looters to go Scot free
