The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, on Tuesday, recalled the events leading up to the establishment of the Debt Management Office (DMO) while serving as Vice President under the Olusegun Obasanjo administration between 1999 and 2007.

Speaking at the 26th Lagos Business School (LBS) Alumni Conference held in Lagos, Atiku explained that when the PDP was elected into government in 1999, marking the beginning of the Fourth Republic, the party really did not have a policy document.

“When the PDP was elected into government in 1999, we really did not have a policy document. We didn’t have a plan. We met a country that was heavily indebted, that was in crisis between the various component parts of the country, and so on,” he said.

Atiku said during a trip to the annual International Monetary Fund-World Bank conference in Washington, he visited the World Bank to outline Nigeria’s debt problem.

“(I told them) we don’t know why we’re owing, whom we’re owing, for what, what the money was meant for, and so on. In other words, we didn’t have any records in the Ministry of Finance. Then the World Bank officials said, ‘Look, we have a brilliant Nigerian in this bank.’

“I said, ‘Can you please loan her to us?’ And I was introduced to our former Minister of Finance, Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala. I came back and told the president and we invited her to join us. From there, we realised had to set up what we called the Debt Management Office (DMO).

Most ministers who work with you and ur principal were perfects has good intentions for nigeria, unfortunately you and ur principal just too opposite.

That one doesn't concern me , my pastor have one month more to tell me why he said 2022 is my year ....

The mention of Okonjo Iweala can make me vote this man. Nigeria really need that woman.

Here to occupy space because I matter

An office that still didn't stop you rogues from selling and sharing the country's assets to yourselves...

Thieves..

I watched Atiku engagement with the business community and he overwhelmingly performed. Sentiment aside this man knows what he wants to do. He laid down practical example and a blue print of what he wants to do. This is not rehearsing and coming to talk. This guy spoke about issues based on questions. He was drilled by the panellists and audience. It was a question and answer segment. I mean tough questions based on the problems we are facing and he gave good answers. This is not going to read a paper like one candidates that at the end was dodging questions.

Vote wisely = Vote Peter Obi of Labour Party

Atiku stick to your political promise and stop delving into matters you don’t understand completely. For starters, you were once an APC member which makes you a political prostitute!

You try

Lol.... This people self, so you now remember the igbo woman..... Politicians, anything to win the election

Lol, as a VP?

We don hear you, Super scout.
Tule jor!

Time and tide have changed..

Unfortunately, Atiku has lost it and cannot offer a strong opposition to Tinubu

He was articulate no doubt

The only good thing I have heard from the top 3 presidential candidates, " okonjo iwoala" . I am beginning to have a rethink for Atiku. Might likely vote him tho. Our economy is in a very big mess .

Nice one incoming president

Atiku Okowa 2023 God's willing.

Rkk

he doesn't matter the thing is that when him and Obasanjo were in good terms Obasanjo was training him to take over him after 8 years but things later changed

Hope he talked about his failed privatisation policy and actions.


This action of his retrenched many civil servants...with their departments sold to private cronies...who eventually had to employ the same civil servants as contract staff to run those departments

I believe you.
You did well, our incoming President.

Not all these charlatans parading everywhere telling stories: one lies on impulse, the other one is a drug addict.

The man for the job

Atiku is still better than all others. sentiments apart.

I will vote for him. Other are fighting the fight of its our turn but he is fighting for better Nigeria....

Who among the candidates that want the country to be divided before now? Biafra and oduduwa nation.

don't come come and be pretending here. Among them, we knows who is pretending and those that are power drunk...
