The Peoples Democratic Party has demanded the speedy prosecution of officials of the All Progressives Congress - led regime indicted for alleged corruption.

It said the declaration by the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari ( retd.) , that some officials of his regime have been found wanting on the issue of corruption vindicated the party on its principled opposition to the ongoing looting and re- looting of our common patrimony.
This was contained in a statement titled: “ PDP To Buhari : Prosecute Corrupt Persons In Your Government…Says President’ s Assertion Vindicates Its Stance, ” signed by the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, in Abuja , on Saturday .

Ologbondiyan said the current delay in prosecuting “ the suspended acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission , Ibrahim Magu, as well as indicted officials of the Niger Delta Development Commission “ and other agencies, does not convey any sense of commitment by the administration to fight against corruption .

He said the PDP welcomed the president’s declaration admitting corruption within his regime but urged him to match his words with action by immediately charging those already indicted to court.
The statement read in part, “ The PDP notes that Mr . President’ s acceptance that there was an abuse of trust by persons in his government had vindicated its position that the Buhari administration is replete with treasury looters, who had been enjoying the cover of government .

“ The party, however, asserts that unless the President matches his assertion with the corresponding action against officials of his government as well as leaders of the All Progressives Congress who are indicted for corruption, his declaration will still end up as one of the glib promises made by the APC and Buhari Presidency since 2015 .

“ It is public knowledge that the APC administration had provided cover for loads of corrupt individuals in its fold as none of the government officials and APC leaders, who have been openly indicted for corruption, abuse of office and treasury looting, have been held culpable and prosecuted . “

According to the PDP , it was important for the regime to start prosecution of such persons instead of the “ constant harassment, intimidation, hounding and persecution of opposition leaders and other Nigerians with dissenting views , with trumped- up charges .“

The opposition party asked the President to borrow a leaf from the PDP whose administration “ not only set up anti - craft agencies but also ensured the prosecution and punishment of those found to have abused public trust ” .

Buhari had on Friday in Abuja reacted for the first time on the allegations of corruption leveled against the leaderships of some Federal Government Agencies and Commissions .
These commissions include the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and the Niger Delta Development Commission .

When asked how he felt about recent revelations coming out from the EFCC and the NDDC, Buhari said , “ There has been abuse of trust by people trusted by previous administration and this administration .

Half of buharis cabinet is corrupt.. APC is fighting their enemy not corruption....

All these bogus name without ideology

GOD GO SHAME BUHARI.... If.....he continues to shade corrupt politicians and office holders in his administration like Danduje shading dollars inside agabada.

Well, the question no one won't ask: IS BUHARI CHASTE??

What is PDP?

Name of an animal, place or a thing?

Lol.


Just passing through!

Pls anyone know the cost of registering logistics business and any in betweens.

His entire cabinet reeks of massive corruption

Buhari was incoherent in that brief interview to the extent that Garba Shehu was screaming cut, cut, off the Mic. Later he and Femi Adeshina will issue a well written statement and claim it was from Buhari.
That's why we hardly hear him talk to the citizens, he can't do live interviews like Trump or Boris Johnson or Paul Kagame where journalists throw questions from all corners because he will simply embarass himself.

Buhari will not punish his appointees because he doesn't seem to understand the extent of looting going on under him, he was asked about NDDC and he was talking about TSA and directing EFCC to sell properties and putting into TSA, he didn't even remember that EFCC leadership is under probe for selling properties to their cronies and not remitting same to the Fed account.

In a sane environment Buhari should be sitting at home playing with his grandchildren and allowing his Vice to run things, then he will be consulted time to time for his opinion on certain issues and not overburdening him with the onerous task of running a nation where a lot has gone BAD.

I will only take PDP serious if they can win Edo election

Ok

What is PDP?

Name of an animal, place or thing?

The most corrupt party in Nigeria, voted out that's now dead party.

Ategberoson:
PDP is mad

Very mad

Ikeast:
Half of buharis cabinet is corrupt..
APC is fighting their enemy not corruption....

You are just being modest! The entire cabinet is corrupt

PDP is mad, they kept quiet all this while and allow this Buhari to sell Nigeria to China. if PDP was a vibrant political party, of course their criticism and propaganda would have prevented Buhari from signing any deal without critical thinking


how can you expects a man that his hand is soiled with human blood, embezzlement and gross foolishness to probe his flawless Cabinet?


because of a dead opposition party we have to savage this foolish APC led administration till 2023

He will never do that. PMB is the grand patron of corruption in Nigeria.

Silly PDP

Buhari is probing them openly

If Jonathan had probes his own appointees maybe we won't had voted him back to otueke

Some of Buhari"s appointeees are sacred cows working for some powerful interests and can't be touched. Buhari is aware !



Your home is incomplete without good quality furniture,that's why we are here for you

oga make una sharrap .. buncha thieves and yam eaters

Buhari is doing his best. It was a very difficult task for PDP Presidents to probe their appointees the way Buhari is doing now. The corruption in different agencies that is made manifest today has been there but the past PDP Presidents has been shielding them. Besides, PDP doesn't have the moral justification to be telling Buhari what to do

PDP members are the first on the list of mistrust

I watched Buhari's interview on Tunde Ednut's Instagram handle and wept for my country.

No wonder they keep shielding him from live interviews... May God help Nigeria.

They asked you questions about the scandals at NDDC and you are talking about the establishment of TSA.

Is the establishment a recent event?

PDP is mad, they kept quiet all this while and allow this Buhari to sell Nigeria to China. if PDP was a vibrant political party, of course their criticism and propaganda would have prevented Buhari from signing any deal without critical thinking

Like any politician is trustworthy.

Punish them bawo? Let the law take its cause.

How can you be telling a fraudulent Government to probe itself? The money being stolen under this APC Government will ridicle what was stolen under Goodlucks Government. Wait until APC mistakenly lose power to PDP.

Lol
