President Muhammadu Buhari has admitted that anti-corruption war is not an easy one to fight.

This, according to him, is because corruption "affects so many different branches of our lives so much that some people do not even consider breaking trust is anymore a crime. It has become the norm.

"That is why we must fight this attitude and encourage Nigerians to CHANGE their attitudes and perspectives."

President Buhari said this in Abuja on Tuesday at the commissioning of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission's Headquarters.

The president said throughout his journey in national service and since 2015, he had made a very conscious decision to pursue a vigorous fight against corruption in public life.

"Since 2015, we have made significant progress in the fight against corruption. Everyone now knows that corrupt officials will be held to account, no matter how long it takes. 

"The goal of this administration is to ensure the protection of public trust, and the anti-corruption war is at its centre," the president stated.
