He stated this when he paid courtesy visit to the Emir of Katsina during his official visit to the state.

“We will not betray trust and we will not let those who betray the trust of Nigerians go scot-free except the ones we don’t know,” he said, stressing that the ongoing anti-corruption war is not a witch-hunt.

“We are not out to victimise anyone but we are bent on ensuring justice,” Buhari who spoke in Hausa said.

Earlier in an address, the Emir of Katsina, Abdulmumini Kabir, had accused the Goodluck Jonathan-led administration of abandoning the contract for River Niger dredging, noting that “in-land waterway is the wealth of the nation.”

Emir Kabir urged residents, especially the Hausa-Fulani, to intensify prayers for the Buhari administration.
