PDP To Buhari: Account For Stolen N15 trillion
The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Tuesday, has urged President Muhammadu Buhari and his retinues of the ruling class, APC, to clear the air on the alleged stealing of over N15 trillion public funds in the last few years.
In a statement signed by its spokesman Kola Ologbondiyan, the PDP said it has uncovered plots “by current APC leadership to blackmail and ridicule President Buhari by pushing out fake performance reviews, like those contained in the press statement by its caretaker committee on Tuesday, January 5, 2021, which was designed to rubbish Mr. President, highlight his failures and deflect attention from the atrocities of the APC.”
To further buttress their proposition, Kola said: “Such fake narratives will not help the APC, as our party has details of their nefarious leaders, including APC governors, ministers, certain aides of Mr. President, as well as APC fronts in agencies of government, and would not hesitate to make such public at the fullness of time.

“APC leaders are also jittery because they would soon explain how they siphoned N500bn Social Investment Programme and the N16bn meant for Mosquito Net Project, as exposed by First Lady Aisha Buhari in addition to the N90 billion stolen from the Federal Inland Revenue Service, FIRS, in a racket in which certain top APC leaders were alleged to have received N3 billion each.
“Some known APC leaders are now running amok over their involvement in the siphoning of the N48 billion meant for the rebuilding of six northeast states ravaged by insurgency as well as the looting of N25 billion from the National Health Insurance Scheme, NHIS, among others.
The party added that “having stripped our national coffers, the APC is now using its illegal caretaker committee to attempt to set the narrative of the empty treasury to validate their further looting of funds meant for the 2021 budget.
APC leaders are having sleepless nights because the dragnet would soon catch up with all of them involved in the reported stealing of N1.1 trillion worth of crude using 18 unregistered vessels; the looting of over N2 trillion in a hazy oil subsidy regime. Kola twitted.
