The president disclosed this in a nationwide broadcast to mark Nigeria’s 52 years of Independence. Mr Jonathan said despite the security challenges the country is faced with, his administration have remained resolute in the fight against ‘endemic corruption’.

“Even as we remain focused on the issue of security, the fight against the scourge of corruption is a top priority of our Administration,” he said.

“We are fighting corruption in all facets of our economy, and we are succeeding. We have put an end to several decades of endemic corruption associated with fertilizer and tractor procurement and distribution. We have exposed decades of scam in the management of pensions and fuel subsidy, and ensured that the culprits are being brought to book.

“In its latest report, Transparency International (TI) noted that Nigeria is the second most improved country in the effort to curb corruption.
