Clark, who said it was wrong for anyone
to accuse President Buhari of fighting a selective war in his drive to
return sanity into the polity, also declared that he had formally left
the Peoples Democratic Party.
Clark called on Nigerians not to distract
the President from achieving his goal, just as he appealed to the
President to remain focused in his determination to rid the country of
corruption.
The Ijaw leader spoke in Abuja on Wednesday when a group, Think Nigeria
First Initiative, paid him a courtesy call in his Abuja residence.
He said, “Jonathan didn’t have the
political will to fight corruption. He’s a gentleman. Drivers of
yesterday are living in palatial buildings now under his government.
“In advanced countries, when you are
living above your means, people query you. That’s not so in Nigeria.
Former governors, lawmakers are now asking for immunity.”
Clark, who was a staunch supporter of
former President Jonathan, however, said he had quit the PDP. But he
said he would not join the governing party, the All Progressives
Congress.
