Vice Presidential candidate of the All
Progressives Congress, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, on
Friday led a campaign rally in Akure tagged Walk
for Change, but it was Governor Rauf Argbesola
of Osun State who stole the show when he
accused the Goodluck Jonathan-led government
of failing to account for $14.6billion oil proceeds
between July 2013 and July 2014.
The rally, which was organised by the Buhari-
Osinbajo Campaign Organisation, was meant to
sensitise Akure residents ahead of next month’s
general elections.
Speaking at the rally, Aregbesola said the
Federal Government had displayed incompetence
in handling the funds that accrued to the country
from oil exploration.
Aregbesola said the excuse of crude oil theft was
assailable because President Jonathan as
Commander in Chief of the armed forces had the
requisite security apparatus to stop the stealing
of crude oil.
“$40m worth of crude oil is being stolen
everyday amounting to $14.6bn since 2013 even
when the contract to protect the oil pipelines has
been given to ex-militant, Tompolo,” he said.
The governor told the APC members who
thronged the venue that the fund that had been
stolen in the last one year was enough to pay
allocation of all the states of the federation for
four years.
He said, “The amount that has been stolen in the
last one year is N2.2 trillion when converted to
the Naira, the money is enough to bring
development to the states of the federation who
are groaning under shortage of allocation to
states.”
He said the crude oil the federal government
claimed was stolen, resulting in the shortage of
allocation, was not actually lost but stolen by
cronies of the Peoples Democratic Party-led
federal government.
Aregbesola said Nigerians must vote for change
so that public funds going into private pockets
would be distributed to all Nigerians for
development purposes.
Osinbajo in his remarks promised that the elderly
and the poor would earn incomes when his party
ascends the Presidency.
“There are many people who do not know yet
that we have the first social security scheme in
Africa that the elderly who are poor and the very
poor, will begin to earn a monthly income,” he
said.
Osinbajo said the Osun State of school feeding
would be adopted for all school children, and
adequate security of lives would be guaranteed.
The Chairman of the party in Ondo State, Isaac
Kekemeke, expressed his delight with the large
turnout and noted that the people of the state
were ready to vote for Buhari in the next month
general election.
He promised to deliver all the three senatorial
seats, nine House of Representatives seats and
26 house of assembly seats to the party.
Among the leaders of the party in the walk
included speaker of the Osun state House of
Assembly, Najeem Salam, Hon Dada Eminence,
Dr Tunji Abayomi, Dr Benson Enikuomehin, Chief
Tayo Alasoadura and Fola Olaseinde among
others. www.punchng.com/news/fg-cant-account-for-14-6bn-oil-money-aregbesola/

Gej is very weak to tackle corruption we are tired of his government. Feb 14 is d judgement day Cos' av prayed on it by d special grace of God d people's general buhari will win convincely.

see aregbesola asking after oil money like his father mined any oil. the man has been unable to pay salaries due to the slump in the price of oil from the niger-delta.

Yet, some yoruba apc warlords wanted to bite jimi agbaje's head off when he told them the bitter truth that this country only survives thanks to niger-delta oil.
the north is obviously useless as even with the insecurity, the economy of the country has been soaring until this recent drop in niger-delta oil prices which has sent everyone scampering for safety.
the gambaris and their willing houseboys will never tell themselves the truth. no. they prefer to live in self-deceit.

Na Febuhari de go hall no wetin bash dem
From Aso rock to kirikiri

So na your Papa get the oil. Idiot. For starters, where did you crawl out from?. I suspect you are Igbo. I would like to know how many bbl of oil do you produce in your state?. We are entitled to the oil money as much as you are. It is this kind of parochial mindset that has been making GEJ fumble for the past 5yrs. "Na our oil, you cannot dictate how to spend it to us". You all have yourself to blame this Febuhari. When your much hated Gambari takes over.
