Why Jonathan can't stop corruption—CAN

The Plateau State Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, Rev. Soja Bewarang has said it will be difficult for President Goodluck Jonathan to curb or eradicate corruption in the country except every citizen gives his/her support in the fight.

Rev. Bewarang noted that corruption is sin and conquering corruption means eradicating sin which is not possible as long as man lives on the earth.

Speaking yesterday in Jos, the CAN Chairman said if every citizen be it a farmer, teacher, business person, politician takes a bold step and say no to corruption, the scourge will be curbed and the country free from it.

He said, “As long as man lives on the earth, sin will continue to exist and corruption is sin. If each Nigerian would say no to corruption in the farm, in the classroom, in business, in the market, if we will all take a position and say to ourselves; I will not be corrupted, neither by giving or receiving bribe, we will overcome corruption.

“The President is doing his best but his effort alone cannot stop corruption except we take the bold step to stop sin, support him in stopping corruption for development to take place in this country”.
