NLNG Funds: Stop Lying To Nigerians, PDP Warns APC by Splashme(op): 9:33am On Jul 13, 2015

Press Statement:

NLNG Funds: Stop Lying To Nigerians, PDP Replies APC


Our attention has been drawn to the misleading and outright falsehood by
the APC.

The truth is that the NLNG had been on a 10-year tax haven until 2014.
Within this period, successive governments, right from President
Olusegun Obasanjo never shared nor tampered with the cumulative
dividends.

Whatever taxes paid from the NLNG go through the Federal Inland Revenue
Services (FIRS) and recorded as part of the income of the Federal
Government.

It is imperative to note that by the end of the tenure of President
Goodluck Jonathan, NLNG dividends had risen to a cumulative $5.6billion
and not a single cent was ever taken from the funds.

Although it is within the rights of the APC administration to spend the
funds in any way they may decide, it is however cruel for them to
inflict on us all such malicious falsehood while the current Presidency,
without the benefit of economic advisers and relevant statutory organs
of government unilaterally decided to deplete the funds without thinking
of the attendant future investments and financial obligations of Nigeria
in the NLNG project.

The APC must note that there is a limit to propaganda and lies. Now is
the time for governance and this government has shown total
unpreparedness to face the challenges of governance at the center.

Signed

Chief Olisa Metuh
National Publicity Secretary
