He said corruption in Nigeria has gone beyond the physical and anyone who wants to fight it must be spiritually inclined and fortified.

 

 

Ayodele, who urged the leadership of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to go spiritual in the fight against corruption, spoke in a statement by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin.

 

 

He said: “The EFCC chairman should be aware that corruption is beyond the physical in Nigeria, it cannot be fought with lawsuits, guns, and arrest alone, it should also be fought spiritually.

 

 

“To fight corruption, you must be highly spiritual; it cannot be fought with technology. If you don’t have spiritual capacity, you cannot win the war against corruption.”

 

 

The cleric also commended the EFCC Chairman, Ola Olukoyode for being passionate about fighting corruption, but warned him against corruption fighting back.

 

 

His words: The EFCC chairman has done so well. I commend him for his efforts. He has a pure heart towards corruption but the powers will frustrate him and at the end of the day, corruption will fight back…”

 

 

Primate Ayodele noted that there is a lot to do if the war against corruption is won because the system is greatly polluted.

 

 

He said: “The system is polluted and if we want to overcome corruption, we need to pull Nigeria down and start from scratch because it is in every sector.

 

 

“There is a lot to do…It is just sad that the EFCC Chairman is doing his best but the power that be is frustrating him.”
