  President Buhari said in Ado Ekiti on Tuesday, February 5, that in spite of the difficulty his administration was facing in the fight against corruption, it would not be discouraged.
  "We are fighting corruption but it has not been easy. But we told the security agencies to keep tab on those on our watch list and ensure that no stone is left unturned to ensuring that those who have cases to answer do not escape justice,'' Buhari said as he campaigned for re-election.
  The president who was with the Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and other senior party members, told the mammoth crowd at the 15,000 capacity Ekiti Pavilion that he would not be discouraged to rid the country of graft as he promised in 2015.
  "I want to be grateful to Ekiti voters because the two times I came here, I achieved successes. I came here in 2014 and I also came here to campaign for Fayemi, he won the governorship election, so I thank you," he said.
  The president said the efforts in infrastructure repair had started yielding positive results and urged the people to vote for the All Progressives Congress (APC) to fully deliver on its promises.
  "That was when we had the highest (earning) but nothing was done with it. If that money had been utilised judiciously, all the roads, rail lines and employment we are creating would have long been in place for Nigerians.
  "Buhari built three refineries as Minister of Petroleum under military era. No government has ever added one, not even during the 16 years of PDP. Don't let them deceive you, vote for a president you can trust, that is President Buhari," Osinbajo advised.
  The national chairman of APC, Adams Oshiomhole, said it would be a big mistake if Nigerians elected the PDP presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, in the February 16 poll.
  "The Buhari-led government is planning to expand Ado-Akure road, complete the federal housing units, the federal secretariat and also extend the Lagos-Kano rail line to our dear state.
  "We therefore have no option than to return President Buhari, because Ekiti people are progressives," he said.
  Meanwhile, a civil society group, the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project, (SERAP) has developed a five-point anti-corruption commitments for presidential candidates ahead of the Feb. 16 Presidential Election.
