Expose Jonathan’s loot – President Muhammadu Buhari said
the enormity of the billions stolen during the administration of his
predecessor, Goodluck Jonathan, will be exposed when the loots are recovered,
and returned to the national treasury soon.
Buhari, in a statement yesterday by his special adviser
on media and publicity, Mr Femi Adesina, was reacting to Peoples Democratic
Party National Publicity Secretary Olisa Metuh’s 30 days appraisal of his
administration. The presidential spokesperson faulted Metuh’s claim that
Buhari’s men were conniving with bureaucrats to syphon money from the treasury.
“This must be deja vu, as it was the pastime of the immediate past
administration, and the enormity of the sleaze will be evident when stolen
money, to the tune of billions of dollars, is recovered, and returned to the
national treasury soon. “In the process of time, after all that is being
planned by the current administration has matured, and bearing fruits,
Nigerians will be able to determine who is serving them acceptably, and who has
taken them for a ride. It is just a matter of time,” he said. He said Metuh and
his masters could only rue the missed opportunities to make salutary impact on
the lives of Nigerians. “they have a long road of regrets to travel,” the
presidential aide added. He said Buhari was clearing the rots created by the
PDP, especially during Jonathan’s government. He said there was absolutely no
reason for the way PDP and Jonathan ran the affairs of the country. According
to him, clearing the rots created by PDP in all sectors of the economy requires
scrupulous and painstaking planning.
“The Buhari administration is naturally
contemplative because there was absolutely no rhyme or reason to the way PDP
ran the country, particularly in the immediate past dispensation. That is why the
Augean Stable is being cleaned now, and it requires scrupulous and painstaking
planning. “Across all sectors, our national life was devalued, and it takes
meticulousness and sure-footedness to repair all the breaches. This, the Buhari
administration will deliver,” Adesina said. He said Nigerians “had teamed up to
uproot an administration that had brought the country to her knees, and was
about to tip her off the precipice. And Nigerians have resolved that never
would they allow any government to divide them along regional, religious and
ethnic fault lines again.”
