<\/p>\nThe News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Osinbajo spoke at the 2017\/2018 Barewa Old Boys Association annual lecture in Sokoto.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is a lot of impunity that have been defined to public office in Nigeria, especially grand corruption which had been sanctioned under the present administration.
\n\u201cI said grand corruption because our society had a problem of extended corruption affecting all government institutions and today has never been the case.<\/p>\n
\u201cNigeria had in the past faced so much challenges of corruption in public offices with a lot of government money being stolen by individuals which the present administration blocked such instances,\u201d he said.
\nOsinbajo added that the present administration under the leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari had recorded tremendous success in the areas of security, agriculture, judiciary, legislature, among others.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is not a single state in Nigeria that is not undergoing a measure of FG project under the ministry of power, works and Housing.
\n\u201cMore so, clearly we have not done all we want to see, but if we are to ask our brothers and sisters from the North-East of what Boko-Haram seize 14 local government in their state, you will agree with me that they have seen some change.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf we are to ask the farmers enjoying the credit and support by the FG programmes and getting a more suitable supply of fertilizer, perhaps they may say that they have seen some change.
\n\u201cThe over 500,000 graduates which have been employed under N-power programme, which is direct government employment, have been training in various fields to be useful for themselves.<\/p>\n
\u201cAlso traders who are getting direct credit from the government to support their small scale businesses, they may say that we have seen some change,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The vice president further restated that the relationship between the executive and the National Assembly remained cordial, as the executive had never stepped into the affairs of legislative conduct.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere had never been any attempt under the present administration to stamp the legislature as was experienced in the past administration.
\n\u201cMoreover, Nigeria had five Senate Presidents between 1999 and 2007, which is very easy to forget. All of this and many more took place in very recent history.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, you will agree with me that a lot had changed at least with regard to political understanding,\u201d Osinbajo added.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
