Cattle-Ranching: The President has his cows on his farm. The FG cannot determine what happens in any state, because each state passes laws on their land, the reason Nat'l Economic Committee was set up which land has been given for grazing purposes. @ProfOsinbajo #NGTheCandidates

Corruption: There is a complete procedure for forfeiture of assets which ICPC, EFCC follow.

People return assets and funds voluntarily, rather than going on any argument with EFCC, and in such cases, we simply forfeit it. @ProfOsinbajo on #NGTheCandidates pic.twitter.com/yN6NjZQSTQ

.@ProfOsinbajo on Poverty: There was a government in this country where $292m was withdrawn weeks to the election another 40bn was withdrawn, we have the evidence, poverty at that time was still at the 112, today we are spending a mere 20b for 2M people.

if you calculate just a $100m, that today's money is N36bn if they have spent that N36B, many people would have stepped out of poverty. @ProfOsinbajo on #NGTheCandidates
