US warns against corruption as Sowore calls for accountability of Wike
Abdullateef Fowewe
The United Mission Nigeria has warned against corruption irrespective of dignitaries.
The US issued a strong statement on X declaring, “Fighting corruption knows no borders or limits on accountability. Even when high-profile individuals engage in corruption, they can be barred from receiving U.S. Visas.”
This underscores the U.S. government’s firm stance on holding corrupt individuals accountable, regardless of their status.
In response, Nigerian activist Omoyele Sowore retweeted the post with a pointed message aimed at Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory Minister, @GovWike.
Sowore stated, “We hope Nigeria’s FCT Minister, @GovWike, won’t escape accountability. He has laundered stolen funds to buy mansions for every member of his immediate family in Florida.”
He added that “steps are already in motion toward securing an international warrant that could see @GovWike arrested and extradited to the US to face money laundering charges sooner than he thinks.”
