A coalition of Arewa Civil Society Groups, has cautioned the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Nigeria electorate to be mindful of the presidential aspiration of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, because he simply wanted immunity against plausible prosecution after the 2023 elections.

The Arewa group at a press briefing in Abuja, yesterday, insisted that Osinbajo was contesting for president to continue enjoying immunity against prosecution, after 2023.

Convener of the group, Comrade Musa Attah, while briefing Journalists, alleged that the vice-president mismanaged funds under his control and office, for various social intervention programmes of the President Muhammadu Buhari administration.

“The leadership of the Coalition of Arewa Civil Society Groups welcomes you all to this significant press conference, which has become a child of necessity, given the recent clamour for the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, to vie for the highest political office in the country.

“As a group representing a vast interest of critical stakeholders in northern Nigeria, and some other parts of the country, we are constrained to lend our voice to an ambition we consider misplaced and against the interest of the generality of Nigerians, in our quest for sustainable growth and development.

“The presidential aspiration of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo does not suit the purpose, given his track record in the mismanagement of the various Social Intervention Programmes of the federal government hitherto domiciled in his office, before the creation of the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development.

“It is instructive to ask questions about how Vice President Yemi Osinbajo managed the National Social Investments Programmes (NSIP), intended to tackle poverty and hunger across the country.

“For the records, the suite of programmes under the NSIP focuses on ensuring a more equitable distribution of resources to vulnerable populations, including children, youth and women, under the supervision of the Office of the Vice President.

“The N-Power Programme, Conditional Cash Transfer Programme, Government Enterprise and Empowerment Programme, the Home Grown School Feeding Programme and the Tradermoni Empowerment Scheme, were all intended to bring succour to the vulnerable groups in the country.

“Therefore, it is curious how such laudable initiatives were mismanaged by the Office of the Vice President, which warranted the President to create a new ministry and transferred the responsibility of managing these programmes to the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development.

“What Nigerians might be aware of is that, under the supervision of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, the National Social Intervention Programmes became an avenue for corrupt enrichment by the Vice President and his cronies. They diverted funds meant for the vulnerable groups to private pockets.

“The heist committed by the Vice President and his cronies in implementing the programmes is quite despicable and a shame, given the multitude of evidence pointing to gross mismanagement and abuse of office.

“Therefore, it is unimaginable for the Vice President to indicate interest to rule this country. The implication of a Yemi Osinbajo’s presidency in Nigeria is that, the country’s resources would be diverted to private pockets most brazenly, as we saw in the NSIP.

“It, therefore, amounts to an insult to the sensibilities of Nigerians for Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, to want to lead Nigeria. He lacks morals and uprightness, as evident in his corrupt tendencies and lack of sincerity of heart and purpose.

“At this point, we are tempted to state in unequivocal terms that the attempt by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo to seek the highest political office in the county is an attempt to shield himself from the probe after the expiration of his immunity,” the statement stated.

Since blackmail of don't bite the hand that feeds you didn't work

Na to fight dirty with everyone

The kind money wen Buhari and his deputy steal ehnn, if you know, you go marvel. These crooks were busy looting but people don't know what is going.

Have you ask yourself one day what they did with trillions of dollars they borrowed? These monies were shared among Buhari and his co-looters. Thieves


Make una see this analysis:

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s tenure saw a drastic reduction in the nation’s foreign debt. Mr Obasanjo met a foreign debt burden of $28 billion but reduced it to $2.11 billion before leaving.

His successor, Umaru Musa Yaradua, incurred $1.39 billion, while Goodluck Jonathan incurred an additional $3.8 billion during his tenure, bringing the nation’s debt to $7.3 billion as of 2015.

However, the incumbent president, Mr Buhari, has acquired a whopping $21.27 billion loan, taking Nigeria’s external debt to an all-time high of $28.57 billion as of December 2020.

In addition to acquiring enormous debt, Mr Buhari has also depleted the Excess Crude Account (ECA) from $2.1 billion left by Jonathan to a paltry sum of $35million, giving credence to the report that he is unable to manage the nation’s resources judiciously.

These Arewa Civil soceity groups are the real Patriots and not those that grill vulture meat yet claim to be patriotic while supporting criminals.

Osinbajo should not be allowed to hold any political post for now until he is made to answer for the pillaging of Nigeria between 2015 and 2023.

Hehehe! In so much that the humanitarian & economic atrocities committed under the wicked Buhari-Osinbajo government will need to be probe or investigated someday, this one is just a smear campaign.

Let him contest and let the people decide his fate

All this smear campaign against Osinbajo holds no water.

They are the patriot because they are not attacking a candidate you like

If nah Peter Obi they attack now, I'm sure you won't support them.

The vice president shouldn't hesitate to sue anyone trying to tarnish his image initially I thought the bastard have something to say until I see last paragraph where the bastard said vice president mustn't contest.

I was fortunate to work in one of this social intervention programs when the vice president handled the program before Buhari create a ministry for it and put his sibling in the office.

Former chief of staff to Buhari ABBA kyari accused the president that it was only southern that benefit from the program I'm Buhari created office for it and asked the vice president to handover the office to humanitarian minister.

I agree we southern are just like orphanage in the hands of northern till today north are really benefiting massively from this program even the money they want to borrow farmers and businesses people then they cancelled southern proposal and paying north beneficiaries.

If you go north every monday morning like this you will see hausa fulani people in bank waiting to collect money .
