TO stem the growing rate of corruption in the country, former Minister of State for Health, Chief Silas Ilo, has advocated the establishment of special courts to try political and government officials suspected to have enriched themselves with public funds.
Speaking with journalists in Enugu, on Monday, on the state of the nation, Chief Ilo noted that special courts would speed up the trials of cases on political corruption in the country, noting that cases bordering on corruption by political office holders had been abandoned half way due to lack of political will.
Chief Ilo urged President Goodluck Jonathan to go beyond rhetoric, wondering why so many alleged corrupt governors in the last regime came back to contest elections in this year’s general election.
