APC To Jonathan: Corruption Is PDP’s Political Ideology
– Former UK Prime Minister, David Cameron accused Goodluck Jonathan of neglecting efforts to rescue the abducted chibok girls
– It was not necessary for the immediate past president to engage Cameron in any argument or defend himself
– Issa-Onilu said that Nigerians already know the story of Jonathan’s habitual negligence to matters of state
The Former Uk Prime minister,David Cameron, in his new book, ‘For the Records’, had alleged that Dr. Goodluck Jonathan’s administration neglected efforts and offers by the British government to help Nigeria in rescuing the abducted 276 Chibok school girls in April 2014.
The former Prime Minister also accused the Jonathan’s administration of high corruption.
Meanwhile,The National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, said that it was not necessary for the immediate past president to engage Cameron in any argument or defend himself, as it a well-known fact that the Jonathan administration was mostly negligent of serious national issues, even as it was also known for unusual corruption.
Issa-Onilu said: “Nigerians already know the story of Jonathan’s habitual negligence to matters of state. The Chibok schoolgirls’ abduction and his “sleeping behind the wheel” is not a story to deny as it is already part of our national history. We may disagree on a number of issues in Nigeria, but there is a national consensus on the fact that PDP elevated corruption to a national culture.
“Denying or arguing against the truth is not going to change anything at this stage. The stories of outlandish corrupt practices under the PDP are still unraveling.
“What is important now is Jonathan explaining to the families of the abducted schoolgirls why as president, he did nothing for two weeks after the Chibok abductions and still refuses to take responsibility for the tragedy up till now — except he continues to blame the Chibok abductions and other failings of his administration on the so-called grand conspiracy against him as he laboriously tries to state in his response to Cameron.

“The current administration’s reactions and actions after the similar and unfortunate Dapchi schoolgirls kidnapping is a pointer to how a responsive government should act.
“That Jonathan government was corrupt was actually half of the story. The full story is that corruption hallmarked the successive 16 years administrations under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). It is shameful that anyone is even defending it. Corruption is PDP’s political ideology.
“This fact is already cast in stone. Nigerians do not need Cameron or anyone else to tell us how corrupt and ineffectual the PDP era was.”
