$1b To Fight Boko Haram: PDP Asks FG To Apologise To Nigerians by BRIGHT180(m): 6:51pm On Dec 15, 2017 |
The PDP in a statement by its National
Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, said
the party was alarmed by what it described as
the manipulative plot by the APC
administration to secure approvals without
recourse to due process, and for purposes of
fighting the same insurgents it claimed it had
since defeated.
The PDP also wondered why the APC-led
Federal Government had to recourse to the
National Economic Council (NEC) while
“avoiding the direct constitutional
appropriation channel of the National
Assembly for funding of items already
provided for in the federal budget if it actually
has nothing to hide.”
According to the statement, “The PDP
supports the fight against insurgency. We hold
our officers and men confronting the terrorists
and securing our territorial integrity in high
esteem, but we are concerned about the
manipulative tendencies connected with the
approvals as well as the veracity of claimed
purpose of the fund.
“Nigerians would recall that the APC-led
Federal Government had claimed that it has
since defeated the insurgents.
“If it would take a billion dollar from a nation’s
savings to kill what they long claimed dead,
then we challenge APC government to come
clean and tell Nigerians the whole truth.
“The era of lies and propaganda is long gone
and Nigerians now know the truth. The
Federal Government must be held accountable
and stopped from any move to fritter away our
national savings.
“We therefore call on the National Assembly to
interrogate this proposed disbursement and
subject it to a thorough but rapid
interrogation”, the statement said.
The party also noted that the development has
rubbished the integrity of the current
administration and demanded that it apologize
to Nigerians for lying to them about the actual
state of the fight against insurgency in
Nigeria.
“By accepting the $1bn for fighting insurgency,
the APC-led Federal Government has admitted
that it lied when it announced that it has
defeated the insurgents. They should therefore
apologize to Nigerians for giving them a false
sense of security, resulting in their
vulnerability to attacks by terrorists.”
“The PDP recalled that the three points upon
which APC hinged their promise were security,
corruption and economy and it is apparent that
they have failed in all.
“On the economy, they have taken us into
recession; on security, Boko Haram is still
ravaging our people; on the corruption, the
APC Government has only embarked on witch
hunt of the opposition while enmeshed in
monumental corruption thriving unabated right
inside the engine of its administration.”
“The PDP vowed to ensure the APC does not
continue to play with the intelligence of
Nigerians, who are now only waiting for 2019
to consign them into the dustbin of history.” |

This bokoharam thingy is now a cashcow... both for the NGO's, Government, terrorist, lazy citizens, military, gun runners, international weapon market, Chief's and rulers, Tribal Politicians Money launderers etc... One question, if the goal of the bokoharam was genuine, why didnt they join arsenal with ipob since they were of same goal (to break awa), but through the period, they remained mute.. We are in for a long ride
