Atiku to jail ‘looters’ in Buhari’s govt if elected president in 2019
Presidential aspirants of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in next year’s general election, Atiku Abubakar, will open a system-wide fight against corruption that will jail “all looters” of public treasury under the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government, if elected into power.
The Peoples Democratic party (PDP) said this in a statement on sunday.
Speaking through its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, it said Atiku’s government will strengthen the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and other institutions empowered by law to do their job.
it also said Atiku would also concentrate on the onerous duty of governance and rescuing the people from hunger and bloodletting.
“The PDP forewarns all looters in the Buhari Presidency, including those involved in the alleged stealing of over N14 trillion from several sleazy oil deals; the alleged undisclosed oil revenue leading to the deadlock at the Federal Accounts Allocation Committee (FAAC); alleged stealing of funds meant for Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) among other sleazes covered by the Buhari Presidency, to get ready to vomit their loots and face the law in no distant time,” the party said.
“What Nigerians earnestly desire now is a resourceful President, not an incompetent leader who lacks the capacity to run a complex economy; who stays aloof and completely insensitive to the plights of citizens, while providing official cover for his officials to fritter away trillions of naira from our beleaguered national treasury,” the PDP said.
