National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Uche Secondus, has vowed that the party will probe the current administration of President Muhammadu Buhari when it takes over in 2019.
Secondus said if the party wins the presidential election in 2019, Buhari-led administration will be probed on the way it spent the $322m looted funds recovered from the late dictator, General Sani Abacha.
The PDP Chairman said this on Friday in Abeokuta during the meeting he held with the state executive and party faithful in the state.
The Rivers-born politician berated the anti-corruption war of Buhari, arguing that his administration claimed to be fighting corruption whereas it is committing mother of corruption’ with Abacha’s loot.
He said, “They said they are fighting corruption and the mother of corruption is being perpetrated under this government. Abacha’s looted funds are being withdrawn and being given out to people. That is the mother of all corruption.
“How on earth will a government engage in mother of corruption? Abacha’s loot has been withdrawn from the banks and being given to cronies.
“We want to assure President Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress, that they will be held accountable. That is mother of corruption.
“No government will put money in baskets and starts sharing. When PDP takes over in 2019, we will ask them to refund every kobo of Abacha’s loot.
“It is primitive to be spending money without proper appropriation.
“I believe that the money is meant for the APC government for election in 2019 and they have started using it. If they do, when we take over, we will probe it.”
