Under Buhari Now A Den of Thieves-PDP"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says the arrest of yet another<br \/>\nscammer linked with the Buhari Presidency further confirms that the<br \/>\nPresidency under President Muhammadu Buhari has become a den of thieves.<\/p>\n<p>The party in a statement signed by kola Ologbondiyan &#8220;says that the<br \/>\nshocking fact that the scammer, Abdulrauf Illyasu, even enjoys an office<br \/>\naccommodation within the safety and cover of the Presidential villa,<br \/>\nfrom where he carries out his fraudulent assignments, is a hard evidence<br \/>\nthat the Buhari Presidency breeds and facilitates swindlers, charlatans<br \/>\nand treasury looters.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The PDP however notes that nothing is impossible for a Presidency<br \/>\nreplete with persons who thrive in lies, false claims, certificate<br \/>\nforgery, bribery, intimidation and recruiting of fraudulent and corrupt<br \/>\npersons as ministers, special advisers and clandestine fronts for<br \/>\nfinancial sleazes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our party holds that it is the height of deceit and duplicity that an<br \/>\nadministration that boasts of integrity and zero tolerance for<br \/>\ncorruption could be the very sanctuary of the underworld.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Only last week, a known confidant of Mr. President, Nasir Danu, was<br \/>\narrested at Heathrow Airport, United Kingdom for alleged international<br \/>\npassport scam and money laundering while allegedly ferrying stolen<br \/>\ncurrencies for persons said to be close to the Presidency.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is in addition to further allegations that Danu has been fronting<br \/>\nfor a close relation of the President for shady oil deals and huge<br \/>\ncontracts running into billions of naira in major revenue earning<br \/>\nagencies.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The PDP invites Nigerians to note how the Abdulrauf Illyasu and Danu<br \/>\nmatters remind of the case of the former aide to the First Lady, Mr.<br \/>\nBaba-Inna, who was earlier arrested over accusations of receiving<br \/>\nbillions of naira from politicians and businessmen on behalf of the<br \/>\nFirst Lady.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The party also urged Nigerians to recall the confession of one Amina<br \/>\nMohammed, who while being paraded by the Department of State Services<br \/>\n(DSS) in 2018, stated in public that persons close to President Buhari<br \/>\nwere involved in serial fraud and looting of public resources under the<br \/>\ncover of the some elements in the Presidency.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The PDP notes as shameful, how the public space has been saturated with<br \/>\nallegations of how individuals and cabal connected to the Buhari<br \/>\nPresidency have been hounding government agencies as well as major<br \/>\ndomestic and international business concerns for kickbacks while<br \/>\nstrangulating those who refuse to accede to their demands.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Today, it is no longer news that the Buhari Presidency holds the medal<br \/>\nas the most corrupt administration in the history of our nation, which<br \/>\nhad also mastered the act of concealment with propaganda and deceit.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The PDP reminds Nigerians that the Buhari Presidency has not yet<br \/>\nprovided answers as to why it has not investigated and prosecuted<br \/>\npersons involved in the N9 trillion sleazy oil contract as detailed in<br \/>\nthe leaked NNPC memo.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Presidency has also not informed the nation why it has not<br \/>\ninvestigated and prosecuted persons involved in the alleged stealing of<br \/>\nover N1.1 trillion worth of crude oil using 18 unregistered vessels<br \/>\nsince 2017.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Such inaction in the face of huge sleazes points to nothing but<br \/>\ncomplicity in very high places and Nigerians now know the links as well<br \/>\nas those to hold responsible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div
