– The national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief John Oyegun, made some revelations about the true state of Nigeria under President Buhari

– He detailed some of the financial impropriety allegedly perpetrated under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) istration

– He warned that the party would no longer fold its arms to watch the PDP and its agents churn out lies against the Buhari government

The national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief John Oyegun, on Thursday mocked the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), saying the opposition party lacked the moral right to speak on the state of the nation.


According to him, “it is stomach-churning and downright immoral for the ruinous PDP, which has yet to show remorse or exhibit any form of penitence for presiding over the mindless looting of the nation’s treasury, to now put itself up as the saviour of Nigerians.”

Oyegun who noted that even among thieves, there must be honour, said Nigerians, who are now bearing the brunt of the economy that was mindlessly mismanaged by the PDP, cannot forget in a hurry that some $15 billion – which is about half of the nation’s foreign reserves at the end of the tenure of the PDP-led federal government – was mismanaged under the guise of the equipping the military, when in reality the funds were largely salted away by PDP fat cats.


According to him, Nigerians are not unaware that just before the last general elections, some $2.1 billion was shared out to just a few PDP faithful, either to be used for praying against Boko Haram or for phantom communication purposes, when in reality the soldiers whom the money was meant to equip were dying in droves.

He listed other instances of the massive looting of the national till under the PDP to include:

1. The $20 billion in oil proceeds that was never paid into the Federation

2. The N33 trillion in national oil revenue that was not ed for, considering that while the nation earned in excess of N56 trillion over five years under the last istration, the total budget for those years amounted to about N23 trillion

3. The $47 million that was distributed to a few individuals just to oil the election process before the last polls.

He said while indeed it was glaring that the PDP-led istration was profligate and rapacious, nothing prepared Nigerians for the mind-boggling discoveries that have emerged in the past one year, including the fact that just a handful of people could have plundered far more than half of what belonged to a country of over 170 million people.


“What is happening now is clear: Just because the farmer has not checkmated the thief, he (thief) has become so emboldened that he is now making a move to even cage the farmer from whom he has been stealing.

“How else can one characterize the most annoying statement by the PDP that it is on a mission to rescue Nigeria, the tale of a killer presenting himself as a life saver!

“Are these people jokers? Do they think Nigerians do not realize that the stage for today’s tough economic situation was set by the same PDP that is now masquerading as a saviour?

“Worse still, is this PDP’s bold face not a ploy to distract the istration that is on a rescue mission?

“Nigeria is currently in ICU (intensive care unit), after it was rescued from PDP.  Yet, the same PDP has the audacity to constantly pillory the ‘doctors’ trying to save the ‘patient’,” he said.

The Chairman appealed to Nigerians not to succumb to the antics of the PDP but to continue to the efforts of the present istration, which is working day and night to ease the impact of the tough economic situation on the citizens.

He added: “Yes, we knew the situation was bad, but we never imagined that it was this bad.

“Yes, we knew that the vast majority of our national patrimony had been stolen and converted by PDP and their cronies, but we clearly under-estimated the scope of the stealing.

“The fact that our country and people survived the PDP and the last istration is perhaps the 8th wonder of the world.

“But we have long moved beyond bothering about this mindless party to seeking to bring the nation back to its feet. What we cannot fathom is for the same PDP to now be heckling us and pretending to be the new saviour of Nigerians.

“Engaging in a campaign of calumny by claiming that the country’s economy under President Muhammadu Buhari was deteriorating is so unconscionable on the part of the PDP, which frittered away the huge windfall that the nation earned during the years that oil sold for over $100.

“Even with the number of PDP operatives and officials who have confessed or itted their complicity in the looting of the treasury, the party has continued to try to pull the wool over the face of Nigerians.
“This shameless distraction must stop forthwith, and here is serving notice that henceforth, the PDP will no longer have a field day in trying to twist facts and present the Buhari istration, which is on an urgent rescue mission, as the villain.”

ok

And APC also has no moral justification to point accusing fingers at PDP because they are birds of the same feather.

What exactly has APC done differently apart from giving excuses and blaming past governments?

NO MUCH NEED TO READ THE ARTICLE

I JUST KNOW ITS ANOTHER BLAM GAME SESSION.

APC! Blaming GEJ for incompetency

No they don't, neither do you guys have any moral justification to govern this country. We're all tired of your numerous excuses and blame of the previous govt. You guys were voted in to right thier wrongs but it seems Nigerian made the wrong choice after all.

Same PDP that is struggling to get it together in just less than 2 years of its ouster is accusing APC of not clearing its 16 years rots in the same time frame.

Laughable Hypocrisy!!!

PDP and APC are no different. They are the same. So Onegin should just shut up and instead tell his boss to concentrate on fixing the malaise bedevilling this country. That's why they were voted in.

so they should allow them to continue to mess up this rubbish country up?

oyegun is a vulture - lair Muhammad

PDP put us in this mess in it 16yrs of many wrong policies n decisions.

This old hag is damn too shameless. The point is when will APC stop this blame game?
Most. Of the PDP defected to your party you accepted them into your fold and you want us to believe you are not bird of the same feather
Bullshit.

Is he still the chairman? Or is he still wants to remain relevant.

same feelings

This Apc led istration is so stuck up in the past...They should spare us all these unnecessary blame game, the fact that the economy wasn't this cripple 2 years ago is glaring to the blind. Aside these, they should come up with a viable strategy to revive the economy.

sulabu:
Ok.

Seriously only right thinking and patriotic citizens will know dt ds austerity we are facing is as a result of mismanagement of PDP lead istration.

Wat would have been our economy if all D's money were channelled into; Agriculture, Health, transport, minerals and even d non functional refineries we have den.
We have youths today who there future have been looted by d cronies and still come online to show dere for dem shouting witch hunting.

D era of free money in circulation has come to an end huzzle, earn and spend it judiciously.

Seriously who would hv prefer BH to D's economy? No body. And u shouldn't think DT its only in d north Dy would have escalated to oda zones in d country.

Let all d road map d president is setting start yielding +ve result u will see some mofos start shouting Gej project, without implementation abi?

I could in 2012, wen Gej and his cronies budgetted close to 1 trillion for security yet nothing shows off not knowing DT Dy all sat on d round table and share d money while d poor and innocent soldiers were been killed on a daily basis. The only and best president in Nigeria is PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI quote me anywhere.

Well it's FTC.

talk is cheap.
