Atiku, Poster Boy For Corruption by TheAnakin(op): 12:22am On Jan 18, 2019
In August 2016, Atiku Abubakar was issued a letter by the EFCC requesting him to shed light on his alleged involvement in the unconstitutional release of funds to the PTDF and placing these funds in two different banks that he chose.

In his well rehearsed reply, Atiku claimed his indictment by the EFCC was an attempt to muddy the waters of his political ambitions.

However, the report which was an audit of the PTDF from the 1990s to May 31, 2006 found Atiku culpable for mismanagement of funds.

According to the report, Atiku’s improper approval for the release and placement of $125million in 2013 without following due process amounted to abuse of office.

These funds were transferred to Atiku’s private businesses. Nigerians curiously wait to see how Atiku attempts to explain his tremendous fraud allegations both home and abroad, how his twenty years in public office was enough to transform him from a modest official to a multi-millionaire and one of Nigeria’s richest business men.

How can this poster boy of corruption possibly hope to lead Nigeria’s corruption fight? That could be likened to a naked man offering to clothe another person.

The poster boy for corruption wants to lead Nigeria’s fight against corruption. According to the EFCC, Atiku diverted 125million from the PTDF into his private businesses. In his two-term tenure, he recorded $60 billion worth of transactions.
