failed his integrity test and has no moral rectitude to pontificate on
corruption, having entangled himself and soiled his administration in
corruption.
Kola Ologbondiyan, spokesman for the Party in a statement said “if there
is any person whose activities of corruption has become a threat to the
coming election, it is President Buhari, who is financing his campaign
with looted funds, while surrounding himself with politicians indicted for
corruption.
“The PDP, out of respect for the Office of the President of Federal
Republic of Nigeria, had severally refrained from calling out President
Buhari on his various indictments for corruption even during his era as
a military ruler.
“A clear reading of Mr. President’s statement today shows that he is not
yet aware that Nigerians have decoded his mastery of concealments of
corruption in his Presidency and are no longer interested in his failed
self-acclaimed fight against corruption.
“President Buhari presides over the most corrupt and incompetent
administration in the history of our nation, for which Nigerians are
very eager to go to the polls on Saturday to vote him out of office.
“If Mr. President were to be aware, he would have discovered that his
entire surrounding reeks of moral, institutional and integrity
corruption. But since he has consistently claimed not to be aware of
anything around him, it is imperative to let him know that the fish in
his pond is rotten from the head.
“Clinical examples can be drawn from his campaign council. Nigerians are
aware that not a few members of this council have been indicted on
malfeasance bordering on corruption
“Is it not strange therefore that President Buhari who wants Nigerians to
perceive his administration as fighting corruption, will cast a net into
the ocean and bring out only corrupt people to run his campaign?
The truth is that Nigerians have seen more than enough of the fake fight
against corruption and have come to a conclusion that President Buhari
is merely paying lip services to this fight. He has no intention to do
it and even if he had the opportunity to govern perpetually, he will
never fight corruption.
“Rather than seeking for sympathy votes, President Buhari should simply
admit his failure in governance and allow Nigerians to build their
future by getting our nation working again under the leadership of Atiku
Abubakar.
