A former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Chief Bode George, on Sunday described a former Minister of State for Finance, Bashir Yuguda, as a liar.

George said contrary to a report that Yuguda gave him N100 million as head of the Contact and Mobilisation Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party in the South West, only $30,000 was given to 18 of them.

He said the $30,000 was meant for the 18 of them from the South West. He said when divided, the $30,000 comes to approximately $1,666 for each of the 18 persons to share it.

He said it was meant for the members of the Contact and Mobilisation Committee for transportation, accommodation and feeding.

Yuguda had in a statement to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission probing the $2.1 billion arms contract deal handled by a former National Security Adviser, retired Colonel Sambo Dasuki, said he gave N100 million.

Part of the money received by Dasuki was said to have been given to Yuguda. The former Minister then said he gave George N100 million out of the money.

George said in a statement on Sunday: “My attention has been drawn to another mischievous and deliberately fraudulent claim that I collected N100 million from Bashir Yuguda, the former Minister Of State for Finance. This is another blatant falsehood, stripped of any iota of truth.

“This is yet again a depraved continuation of lynch mob journalism orchestrated by Sahara Reporters.

“The salient fact is that very early this year, long before the election period, the party (PDP) set up Contact and Mobilisation Committee for each zone to reconcile various factions and ensure a firm unity of purpose within the zones before the election.

“I was elected as the Chairman for the South-West zone.

The Committee, made up of 18 senior members of the party with distinguished history of honour and exemplary leadership, met, at least, 10 times in my office in Lagos. “These people travelled all the way from every corner of the South-West, with three members representing each state. All of them are very much alive to testify to my assertions.

“Sometime in the middle of these deliberations, Yuguda came to me and said the party was reimbursing the 18 elders of the Committee for their transportation, accommodation and feeding allowance for the work that was done. The Committee later submitted the report of its deliberations to the party and then wound up.

“For all these efforts, Yuguda gave the Committee only $30,000. That was less than N6 million at that time. Yuguda can never claim that he gave the Committee N100 million. That is the figment of the imagination of rascally scribblers purporting to be journalists.

“Again, facts are sacred. Journalism is diminished when every tout churns out pure garbage to malign public figures.”

Ask them Oooooooooo. These people caused the current instability in our foreign exchange market with their dollarization of our economy thus putting so much pressure on our naira to the extent that the demand for dollar is greater than its supply hence leading to the increase in price of dollar to naira.

“Sometime in the middle of these deliberations, Yuguda came to me and said the party was reimbursing the 18 elders of the Committee for their transportation, accommodation and feeding allowance for the work that was done. The Committee later submitted the report of its deliberations to the party and then wound up. “For all these efforts, Yuguda gave the Committee only $ 30,000. That was less than N6 million at that time. Yuguda can never claim that he gave the Committee N100 million.
