As President Muhammadu Buhari is inaugurated for a second term in office on Wednesday, the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has tasked him to ensure compliance with the rule of law.

In an open letter to Buhari, SERAP urged him to “publicly commit to making every day of your stay in Aso Rock a ‘Rule of Law’ Day, by ensuring that every segment of your government’s daily operations is lawful and rule-of-law compliant, for the sake of fairness, justice, your legacy, and the success of your anti-corruption agenda, which has remained stuck in limbo.”

The organisation told Buhari in the letter dated 29 May, 2019 and signed by SERAP deputy director Kolawole Oluwadare, that the results of the ‘rule of law MOT’ in Buhari’s government for the past four years are “uniquely damaging” to his government’s fight against corruption and to the country.
