PDP chieftain/ member of the Board of Trustees (BoT) and former Minister of Transportation, Chief Ebenezer Babatope has said the party leaders were not aware that some of the campaign money was from the arms procurement fund. Babatope made this disclosure in a recent interview with New Telegraph. When asked his take on the revelations involving the former National Security Adviser (NSA), Col. Sambo Dasuki (rtd) over the arms procurement fund, Babatope said: "We have not heard the true story on the matter. What we are hearing is what media is reporting. I am a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Board of Trustees (BoT) and most of the things the press is talking about now is very strange to me. Nobody in his senses will open his hands and collect money from what is called Dasukigate. Every political party in the world has the responsibility to cater for itself in elections; that is to prepare itself for elections.




"So, I hope most of the things they are talking about are not things that are mixed up with political party organisations. Let me give you an example; I was a member of the South-West zone of Contact and Mobilisation Committee, which was headed by Chief Bode George. Nobody told anyone of us that we were being given money from Dasukigate or whatever. I know Dasuki very well in terms of his name and the office he held but I never came across Dasuki in terms of giving money or anything. And when we talk about Dasukigate, it is a terrible thing to hear.




"I know money was released to the party but nobody mentioned that money was being released to the party from money meant for purchasing of arms and ammunition to fight Boko Haram. The Contact and Mobilisation Committee, which composed 18 members in each geo-political zone was inaugurated by former president and PDP leader, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan in Abuja before the last general elections and nobody ever told us that he was sending money through Dasuki.





"I want to appeal to the All Progressives Congress (APC) and President Muhammadu Buhari, that much as the battle against corruption is something which must be supported by all reasonable people, they must ensure that they don’t reduce it to a ridiculous level of drawing people that have nothing to do with it into the matter. They should not drag innocent people into what they are doing. If money was given to the party, it was for party organisation but not the N100 million they are talking about."

Haa Daddy wa so you follow shop the yam too...Babatope where did elders think Dasuki they bring the yam from.. from his farm or wh farm? Am sorry to say but Pdp elders una dey useless pinkin they bring yam for una make una dey shop una no ask the pikin where he dey get the yam..Walahi una no be good elder.

Well now dt one na story cos naija now kno say stealing is corruption and we now have a leader who the goats and yam can be together without any attempt by the goat to eat the yam...except the goat wan go prison.

ignorance is not an excuse to the law .stealing is now corruprtion,wen dasuki mention ur name, ur eye go clear

Now that u know so what next refund the blood money you received.

This agbaya should get lost.
He has been around the corridors of power since forever.
Like Anenih, bode George and all the other fossils,you cannot attribute a needle to this man.
useless to society.

Babatope should please STFU. He should listen to himself and see how silly he sounds. There is no point trying to be clever by half, we all know Jonathan shared governments money to PDP members just to get re-elected so, nothing to cover up here.

Just imagine what a bunch of clowns these guys are. Everyone now appears to be bolting our of the yam barn since they can't stand the stench of the fart coming from some who had eaten rotting yams.

Dasuki is yet to release half of the tracks he's got in his hit album- I'm sure when we get to that point, these happy-go-luck party fanatics would realise the consequences of attending such owambes.

This year is gonna be one of the busiest and most profitable years ever for our press I believe. When we get to NNPC and customs, they'd be the ones chasing after the deluge of news items trying to catch up.
