Useni said further that people who stole Nigeria’s money should be dealt with the same way Jerry Rawlings dealt with corrupt officials in Ghana.

Rawlings in 1979 executed senior military officers and former heads of state in a bid to rid Ghana of corruption.

“Public officers stole a lot of money. As far as I am concerned, such people need to be dealt with the very way Jerry Rawlings did in Ghana,” Useni said in Jos, Plateau State on Saturday, October 1, Daily Trust reports.

“We must support what President Buhari is doing. We must recover stolen funds,” he added.
