The All Progressives Congress (APC) has dismissed Peoples’ Democratic Party’s (PDP’s) latest allegations on President Muhammadu Buhari administration’s anti-corruption efforts as empty, baseless and diversionary.
The party made this known in a statement issued by Mr Yekini Nabena, APC’s acting National Publicity Secretary, on Sunday in Abuja. It added that though the opposition in a democracy was supposed to offer constructive criticisms and proffer alternative solutions to government’s policies and programmes, the opposition rhetoric of the PDP was nothing “but senseless noise-making”.
“In both content and context, PDP’s latest allegations on the President Buhari administration’s anti-corruption efforts should be seen for what they are: empty, baseless and diversionary. The All Progressives Congress (APC) has dismissed Peoples’ Democratic Party’s (PDP’s) latest allegations on President Muhammadu Buhari administration’s anti-corruption efforts as empty, baseless and diversionary.
“It is truly amazing that the party of a failed government which held the country prostrate for 16 years; stole, wasted and misappropriated our abundant resources, will have the audacity to make comments on the current administration,” it said. The statement maintained that PDP’s corruption while in office, stench and suffocates Nigerians, adding that the APC within the last three years, had been clearing the rot left after its misrule.
It noted that it was under the PDP’s immediate past administration that disclosures of nauseating magnitude were made. The statement noted that PDP recalled the N350m and the $30,000 Iyorchia Ayu and Bode George, a PDP chieftain, said they collected from Sambo Dasuki too. It further recalled that Raymond Dokpesi, owner of African Independent Television (AIT), also confessed to have collected N2.16 billion from Dasuki for publicity purposes ahead of the 2015 general election among many more shameful disclosures.
“These are just a tip of the iceberg of how our commonwealth were massively looted by the shameless characters in the PDP.
