Making reference to the fight against corruption, Buhari said those who abuse public trust will face justice in addition to returning their stolen assets to the nation’s coffers.
He commended Nigerians for supporting the Federal Government’s policies, programmes and actions aimed at improving security, revamping the economy and deepening the fight against corruption.
