Corruption: Oshiomhole Has Finally Exposed Buhari As The Grand Patron – PDP

Press statement from PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organization
(PPCO) says the factional National Chairman of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, has finally exposed President
Muhammadu Buhari as patron of corruption and that his much-touted
anti-corruption fight is just a ruse.

The PPCO says Oshiomhole, by his confession at the Edo state APC
Presidential rally on Thursday, that “once you join the APC, your sins
are forgiven”, has directly confirmed that the APC is a sanctuary of
treasury looters and that President Buhari’s fight against corruption is
mere racketeering.

With this revelation by Oshiomhole, who is also overburdened by huge
corruption allegations for which he had to flee the country last year,
it is now established that the APC is a party of thieves and thrives
only on deception, lies and propaganda while swimming in an ocean of
corruption.

The fact that President Buhari, who parades as Mr. Integrity, has not
reprimanded Oshiomhole but openly relished the assertion, confirms his
moral entanglement, accommodation and valid endorsement of corrupt
practices by APC members and Presidency cabal.

Nigerians are all witnesses to how President Buhari became an
advocate for Kano state governor, Abdullahi Ganduje over the leaked
tape, showing him allegedly collecting bribe from contractors.

They have also seen how Mr. President, even as supposed Mr.
Integrity, surrounds himself with corrupt persons and how most members
of his Campaign Organization, as individuals, have been indicted for
corruption.

This is even more worrisome given allegations that the Buhari
Presidency and the APC are directly benefiting from the funds being
looted under their watch, including the N9 trillion detailed in the
leaked NNPC memo; the N33 billion North East intervention fund, the
repatriated $322 million stolen under the guise of sharing to the poor,
the over N25 billion stolen from the National Health Insurance Scheme
(NHIS), the over N1.4 trillion stolen through sleazy subsidy regimes
among others.

The PPCO therefore holds that given this damning revelation by
Oshiomhole, President Buhari no longer has the moral rectitude to seek
re-election after he has betrayed Nigerians by failing to uphold the
sanctity of the war against corruption as one of the major planks of his
re-election campaign.

Moreover, Oshiomhole and his co-travellers in his corruption roller
coaster are reminded that they will soon lose their cover and definitely
face trial for their atrocities as Nigerians have resolved to vote out
their grand patron, President Buhari from office on February 16, 2019.

Finally, the PPCO urges the EFCC to commence the investigation and
prosecution of members of the APC campaign council as well as new
entrants into their party as their factional National Chairman had
already confessed that the party is a club of looters.
