Nice and welcomed development.
Everything must be done within the ambit of the law, so a committee like this comes handy.
I wish them the very best.

All the advisers are from either the west or north. This is a sectional government.

Dude Sagay is Clean as a new slate.
I ve followed his criticisms for Years.
Pray they stick on the path of righteousness.

I don't think Sagay can do this job. He is too sentimental about his love for APC and Fashola (who was his student) to ever see corruption in APC. This is a set-up, which will surely fail. Sagay is sure to disgrace himself at the end. mark my word.

By merit. You say you would rather do business. Should we now come and bother you? We are cleaning up the country so you can do business without bottlenecks
