US President, Donald Trump categorically observed that ‘Nigeria has a massive reputation for corruption’ while receiving Nigeria President, Muhammad Buhari on Monday.
While standing by Buhari, Trump said, “Nigeria has massive reputation for corruption, I discussed it with the president and we agreed to do something on it.”
He however offered the U.S. continued assistance and support for Nigeria in order to get a lasting solution to the menace.
“We are working to cut” the corruption cases down, He added.
President Buhari did not object to the observation but instead thanked the US for its supports.
The President was rather concerned about media reports which he was skeptical about.
“I am being careful about what the press says about others and myself. But the best thing for me to do is to keep quiet,” Mr Buhari said.
