All Progressives Congress, APC,
has said the incoming General
Muhammadu Buhari
administration will not persecute
anyone, contrary to state ments
credited to President Goodluck
Jonathan recently.
APC, in a statement issued in
Abuja yesterday by its national
publicity secretary, Alhaji Lai
Mohammed, said, however, that
those who have played poker
with the nation’s destiny must be
willing and eager to clear their
conscience before man and God.
It said: “That the President- elect
is a man of integrity is not an
issue for debate, and he has
made it clear that he will not be
bogged down by endless probes.
“However, the hands of the
incoming government will not be
tied by those who have chosen
to play the victim and exhibit a
persecution mentality.
Whoever has any reason to be
afraid must lay bare such reason
before Nigerians.” Saying that
under the climate of change that
Nigerians have ushered in with
their votes, only the guilty needs
to be afraid, and those with
guilty consciences, on account of
their actions in the public sphere,
must clear such so they can be at
peace with themselves,
Mohammad added: “The last time
we checked, this does not fit the
definition of persecution.”
He wondered why the President
chose a public forum to express
his fears when he could have
done so privately during his
meetings with the President-
elect.
Mohammed said: “Since the
presidential election was won
and lost, the President and the
President elect have met privately
a number of times. Why didn’t
President Jonathan express his
apprehensions during these
meetings?
“Even if the two have not met,
the President could have reached
out to the President-elect over
any fears that he may be nursing,
instead of engaging in an action
that seems like he was being
preemptive and seeking to curry
public sympathy.”
APC insisted that the priority of
the incoming government would
be the welfare and security of
the long-suffering people of
Nigeria, enjoining all citizens to
support the incoming
administration in charting a new
path for the country away from
the rapaciousness and impunity
of the past years.
Meanwhile, the leader of the
transition committee of Gen.
Buhari’s incoming government,
Ahmed Joda, has denied having
any rift with the Federal
Government’s committee set up
in preparation for the May 29
handover date.
Joda spoke with State House
correspondents shortly after a
joint meeting between his
committee and that of the
Federal Government chaired by
Vice President Namadi Sambo. He
noted that there was no truth in
reports that the Federal
Government’s committee was
making smooth transition
difficult by not showing enough
cooperation.
Joda said contrary to such
insinuations, the transition
committee of the present
government had shown the
needed cooperation to his
committee.
Speaking in the same vein,
Secretary to the Government of
the Federation, Anyim Pius
Anyim, said the meeting was
fruitful, stressing that there are
no contending issue between
the two committees.

A clear conscience they say fears no accusation.

So anyone with anything that belongs to the masses should return it now or........

Sure but if there's an established case of corruption, the ex government official in question would be charged with whatever is the alleged offense
