Respectfully there was significant and well‑documented corruption during Goodluck Jonathan’s administration (2010–2015).
However, no single number exists for “how many” corruption cases because corruption occurred across multiple sectors, ministries, and agencies. What we can rely on are documented patterns, investigations, and academic studies.

What the evidence shows about corruption under Jonathan
Corruption was widespread and systemic
Multiple academic and policy studies describe corruption during Jonathan’s era as “endemic,” “astronomical,” and deeply embedded in government operations.

These studies highlight:

Diversion of public funds

Ghost workers

Police extortion

Port and passport office bribery

Election irregularities

Missing oil revenue

Slow, corrupt bureaucratic processes

These were not isolated incidents — they were systemic.

EFCC struggled to fight corruption during Jonathan’s tenure
Research on the EFCC under Jonathan shows:

The EFCC faced political interference

Anti‑corruption efforts were limited in effectiveness

Public trust in anti‑corruption institutions declined

This means corruption cases existed, but enforcement was weak.

Bottom line number of confirmed corruption arrests under Tinubu is 1

Name: Mustapha Abdullahi

Amount involved: ₦500 billion

Status: Ongoing EFCC investigation
