Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo on Saturday said the Federal Government does not interfere with the jobs of security and anti-corruption agencies.

According to a statement by his spokesman, Laolu Akande, Osinbajo said this on Friday in Houston, Texas in the United States at a meeting he had with Nigerians based in the US.

Osinbajo while answering questions said the current administration will not interfere if anti-graft agencies decide to probe former President Goodluck Jonathan.

The statement read, “Answering a question from the Internet on when former President Jonathan would be arrested, Osinbajo pointed out that the Buhari administration was not in the business of arresting people anyhow.

“He said all the Buhari administration did was to empower the security agencies and the anti-corruption agencies to do their jobs, without the administration trying to teleguide (monitor) them,”

Osinbajo also dismissed insinuations that the fight against corruption has been targeted at certain ethnic groups.

He said, “Corruption is not an ethnic thing, there is an equal representation in the stealing as no one operates with his or her ethnic group alone, the culprits are in every case seen so far, united by greed to steal and not by ethnic or religious interest.”
