We didn’t plug all loopholes during our fight against corruption- ex-president Goodluck Jonathan says of his administration

Speaking at the PDP non-elective convention in Abuja yesterday, Jonathan said although his administration weighed a war against corruption, it did not plug all the loopholes where finances were embezzled by some indicted officials of his administration.
