The news about the British prime minister describing Nigeria as a corrupt nation went viral immediately afterwards but the presidency is not taking it likely with the United Kingdom government.
A press statement issued by Shehu Garba, President Buhari’s spokesperson, described the comment as one which was very embarrassing, especially in the wake of the anti-corruption war in the country.
“This is embarrassing to us, to us say the least, given the good work that the President is doing. The eyes of the world are on what is happening here, the Prime Minister must be looking at an old snapshot of Nigeria. Things are changing with corruption and everything else.”
