Buhari Flaws Over His Campaign by abdulkudu: 11:55am On Mar 26, 2015
The mantra making the rounds now in the opposition circles is: Buhari is the change we need. One wonders how much of this Buhari the orchestrators know. Or are just blinded by the propaganda of the All Progressives Congress (the APC), a political party, which wants everybody to believe its Government will come with it a magic wand to drive away all the nation’s problems in one fell-swoop?
The Abacha regime created the Petroleum Trust Fund (PTF) in 1994, headed by Major General Muhammed Buhari, now the standard bearer of the All Progressives Congress (the APC). When, in 1994, the late General Sani Abacha, invited the former Head of State to serve as head of the newly created Petroleum (Special) Trust Fund (PTF), he gave one condition for this acceptance: He must be given the title of Executive Chairman, and he must have a free hand to run the Fund as he deemed fit, without any interference from anyone, including the head of state.
The idea of the PTF was to create a Trust Fund into which all excess income from the price increase would be paid, and from which the Fund would intervene in critical areas of the economy in such a manner as to directly benefit ordinary Nigerians. It is reminiscent of the SURE-P of the Goodluck Jonathan administration.
In the Buahri harrowing PTF days, three things we must know, namely: 1) his concentration of over 70% (in some cases, 100%) of all the PFT projects in the north regardless of the fact that the regions in the south might have greater needs for the PTF intervention; 2) the massive frauds that went unsupervised under his watch, which he publicly acknowledged but claimed ignorance and no benefit; and 3) Buhari’s nepotic choice of consultants who were used to siphon the PTF funds that were uncovered by independent investigative committees.
Buhari did all this things and now he is coming as a saint to rule the country. So as to have the clear benefit of destroying it.
