He made the statement in an address delivered at the 7th Founders Day and 4th convocation Ceremony of Afe Babalola University of Ado Ekiti (ABUAD).

He, however, said that a new strategy would be employed to fight the dangerous dimension that corruption appears to be assuming in the country, just as the Buhari government is ready  to combat it, right from the school level.

According to him, higher institutions, such as ABUAD are great places to be used, in a national re-orientation programme being contemplated to fight the menace.

“All institutions of government are under the threat of corruption

“You will please recall that President Muhammadu Buhari, had himself warned on several occassions that if we don’t fight corruption, corruption will fight us

‘“We are thinking of using national re-orientation to fight corruption and other societal menace, and to my mind, Afe Babalola University appears as one of the great places to start with,” he said.

The Vice President thanked Aare Babalola and others who helped in intervening in the funding and management of education in the country.

He said  the nation would forever remain grateful to them.
