EKO HOT BLOG reports that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has described the President Muhammadu Buhari-led All Progressives Congress (APC) administration as a government of liars, for the liars and by the liars.

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed at a media briefing early on Thursday in Abuja, had said the administration of the APC had put in place structures that would not only check corrupt tendencies but make it unattractive and costly.

PDP in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Hon. Debo Ologunagba, vehemently disagreed with the Minister of Information’s claim, stating that the Buhari administration is sinking deeper into the abyss of failure.

The opposition party stated that “the APC administration is unsettled by the Transparency International (TI) Report which ranks Nigeria under President Buhari as the second most corrupt country in West Africa and 154 out of 180 in Global Corruption Index, given APC’s humongous corruption including the exposed looting of over ₦16 trillion public funds by APC leaders and their cronies in government.”

It also added that the President Buhari-led administration has no response to the alleged looting of $25 billion under its watch as detailed in the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) leaked memo.

PDP also challenged the APC government to give answers to the “reported stealing of ₦165 billion in the Nigeria Ports Authority (NPA), the ₦1.5 trillion and $9.5 million reportedly stolen from Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), the $65 million frittered from the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN) as well as the ₦90 billion reportedly looted from the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS).

“This is in addition to the reported looting of ₦33 billion from the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), the reported stealing of over ₦18 billion from the rehabilitation of IDPs in the North East, the over ₦25 billion from the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) as well as the looting of ₦500 billion Social Investment Programme Fund as revealed by the First Lady, Aisha Buhari among others,” the statement stated.

It queried that, if the ruling APC cannot purge itself of a self-confessed terrorism apologist, how can it claim to have effectively confronted terrorism in the country?

The opposition party also challenged the APC to publish the names and details of those it claimed to be sponsors of terrorism and those it claimed to have been arrested.
