Plateau State Commissioner for Information and Communication, Honourable Muhammad Abubakar Badu, has dismissed the anti-corruption claims of General Muhammadu Buhari and asked him to explain how two billion naira disappeared from the Petroleum Ministry when he was in charge.

The commissioner stated this during a brief ceremony to mark the conferment of the honour of Ethics Ambassador on him by the Centre for Ethics and Self Value Orientation, in his office.

Muhammad said “war against corruption or anti-corruption crusade must be holistic.”

According to him, All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate’s claims and pronouncements about fighting corruption was a sheer pretence and electioneering gallery show.”

Badu recalled that a whopping sum of two billion naira disappeared under Buhari’s watch, and was traced to an aircraft arrested by the government of Idi Amin in Uganda.

“At that time, the naira was stronger than the American dollar, and that translates to robbing Nigeria of vital development projects, especially as that government failed to account for the money up to this day.

“For discerning people to believe and subscribe to his anti-corruption war cry, Buhari should explain to the world how the money disappeared from the ministry’s coffers, and the diplomacy that resolved the controversy over the arrest of the aircraft carrying the cash in a Uganda airport,” he said.

Meanwhile, the gubernatorial candidate of the APC in Plateau State, Simon Larlong, has lamented the debt profile of the state, saying “with over N100 billion debt profile, the state cannot progress.”

The gubernatorial candidate, who stated this during his campaign in Pankshin Local Government Area of the state, said the PDP-led government had failed the electorate and entrenched disunity among the diverse ethnic groups in the state.

Meanwhile, Plateau State women have been urged to mobilise for positive change, by voting for All Progressives Congress (APC) candidates, at all levels of leadership in the forth-coming elections.

They were also told that all the allegations against the presidential candidate of the party were mere propaganda.

A frontline politician and activist in Plateau State, Mrs Ruth Meamane Gokas, made the call in Jos, at a voter sensitisation workshop, organised by the APC Buhari Women Initiatives for Positive Change (APC-BWIPOC), Plateau State chapter.

She said the sensitisation and education became necessary as the election is around the corner.

She said that women constituted half of the Nigeria’s population but that established restricted practices have not allowed women to take advantage of their number and position in order to significantly influence the decision making processes.

Mrs Gokas said that women and other electorate were expected to obtain their PVCs.

“We need positive change in the area of security. We should know that our destiny is in our hands, so vote wisely. Vote APC,” she appealed.

The state coordinator of the group, Mrs Felicia Yazum, said in her speech that the sensitisation had become necessary because women are committed to voting.

AND BUHARI WANT TO FIGHT CORRUPTION, CAN CORRUPTION FIGHT CORRUPTION?

He Gov. Jang has something to say let him say it. PDP think that repeating lie makes it right. How unsold shares became a stolen money is beyond reason.

If this is an attempt cover the money Soludm and AU mentioned, then it is very lame effort.

Let us pray for Nigeria;may the same God dat rejected buhari and put him to shame in 2003,2007 and 2011 reject and make him cry again on 14th Feb 2015,in Jesus Name Amen.
