According to Senator Ben
Murray-Bruce, President Buhari's anti-corruption campaign is doing more harm to
the economy than good as it's scaring investors from investing in the economy.
He says the war against corruption has put fear in the minds of Nigerians that
want to invest in a business that might attract the attention of the antigraft
agency. He said this while speaking at the senate debate on the Economy during
plenary yesterday September 22nd.
"If you look at
Nigeria today, nobody is buying land, nobody is buying houses. Rent is actually
is coming down. The economy has shut down. The reason why this is happening is
because of Fear. Everybody is afraid. You cannot run a 21st century economy
where everybody is terrified. Everybody is afraid of being arrested. As long as
you have fear in the system, you will not invest your money in that
economy"he said
