Oghenevwede Ohwovoroile in Abuja

An author, Chuka Modebe, has stated that Nigeria’s problem is not corruption but system failure.

He stated this at the launch of his book ‘It Starts with A Plan’ last Wednesday in Abuja.

Modebe said corruption is a byproduct of system failure, adding that what we need is to fix our systems, and corruption will go. “Here, we have system failure, not corruption. Corruption is what comes from system failure.

“That system failure is because we’re using colonial frameworks in modern times. It is designed to extract, keep us placated, and extract our minerals. So, we need to develop and produce,” Modebe said.
