Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Emir of Kano, Muhammed Sanusi II, on Wednesday said most public officers were not well brought up.<\/p>\n

Sanusi noted that many people occupying public offices lacked proper moral upbringing and training.<\/p>\n

Featuring on Channels Television\u2019s Politics Today, Sanusi stressed that public office is not a place to make money.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cMany people in public office today were simply not well brought up. When I was in Kings College in Form 1 and 2, we had a class called Civics.<\/p>\n

\u201cCivics was taught by the Principal of Kings College himself, so from a very young age you are taught certain values, you are taught honesty and integrity, you are taught the issues of human rights, and you know it\u2019s important to leave a good name.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know it\u2019s important that when you go into a public office, it\u2019s an opportunity to serve and not to make money.<\/p>\n

\u201cMany people do not have that upbringing and training and many people go into government for the wrong reasons.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t go into government to make money, if you want to make money you should become a business man. Aliko Dangote is the richest man in Africa and he has never been a commissioner or a minister.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe entire value system has been eroded and we have been ruled by people who have no values, they have no name behind them and they have no desire to leave a name after them.\u201d<\/p>\n
