Former Buharispokesman, Odumakin,insists Acn Is Morecorrupt Than Pdp by malele(m): 10:01am On Jul 21, 2013
Yinka Odumakin, former spokesman for Muhammadu
Buhari, who was the Presidential candidate of the
Congress for Progressive Change, CPC has insisted
that the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) is more
corrupt than the ruling Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP. He said this in response to a statement from the
CPC which disowned his views. The CPC had rushed
to distance itself from Odumakin in order to salvage
its merger with the ACN after that party flet slighted
by Odumakin's interview where he gave instances of
the dictatorial and corrupt tendencies of the leader of
the ACN, Bola Tinubu.
Odumakin released a statement as follows, “My
attention has been drawn to a statement in the
media by the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC)
on my views published on a chat forum which was
lifted by PILOT Newspaper and published in its
edition of July 17, 2013.
“In the said view written under my name as I have
done several years now, I stated that the corruption
going on in the South West States under ACN is far
greater than what we witnessed under PDP.
“I buttressed my point with the fact that where I
dragged Mr. Alao Akala to EFCC in 2010 for asking
each Local Government in Oyo state to award 5 kms
of road at N250m to a particular contractor, a
company linked to the ACN National Leader is
collecting a kilometer of road at N1b each in the
same region.
“The newspaper quoted me correctly but mistakenly
referred to me as ‘Buhari Spokesman’ but never said
I spoke for General Buhari.
“Perhaps the paper did not know that I ceased being
Buhari’s media advisor shortly after the Supreme
Court ruled on the 2011 elections which brought us
together for a period of about 8 months.
“I had expected those who want to provide
leadership for the country to read the publication
they are reacting to before rushing to the media to
‘disown’ who they don’t own. I guess the desire to
appease allies overrides this simple process.
“If they had done this due diligence they would have
known that there was nowhere General Buhari was
linked to my views.”

Now you telling us ACN is corrupt? Why didn't you say this while you were romancing with them?

We know that, O jare, Mr Odumakin. Pastor Tunde Bakare already told us that a few months ago, when he famously called d loud-mouthed HYPOCRITES (esp d Tinubu-led ACN chaps ) 'PROGRESSIVE ROGUES'. Little wonda the Pastor is less talkative about politics these days- he loathes many of d people that wants to join in to take Power just as much, if not more than, d very people he wants to drive out of power...... The HYPOCRISY of ACN PROPAGANDISTS slowly (or rather, make that 'fastly')beginning to catch up with them.
