FAYOSE VS BUHARI AGAIN?
Ekiti State Number one citizen, Mr Ayodele Fayose, has spoken out that certain individuals that make up Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari's office buried stolen money in the presidential mansion in the Capital city, Abuja.
Fayose, Who said this in while answering to the words spoken by the federal minister of information and culture, Lai Mohammed, that public thieves have turned to burying stolen money in their backyards, deep forests and burial grounds.
Mohammed said this to emphasis the importance and success of the Federal Government's whistle blowing policy.
In a press release by Fayose's spokesperson, Lere Olayinka, the Governor bashed the minister's utterance, saying that looters in the ruling party, All Progressives Congress (APC) enjoy presidential immunity.
He said: "Looters in the Muhammadu Buhari’s presidency, especially those being compensated for funding the election of the president in 2015 bury their own loot in the villa with presidential protection.
"Should it be wrong for other supposed looters that do not have presidential protection like the All Progressives Congress (APC) looters to bury their loots in burial grounds probably for spiritual protection?
"Nigerians can no longer be fooled with stage-managed loots recoveries, with no traceable owners (looters), especially when the loots are traceable to close associates of the president and his cabinet members.
"Obviously, this so-called anti-corruption war has become a laughing stock with N49 million found in Kaduna Airport, N448 million discovered in a shop at Victoria Island, Lagos and N13 billion found in Ikoyi, Lagos neither having owners nor the identities of owners of the property where the money was found known."
The Governor also described the 13 billion Naira gotten back by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) last week Wednesday might have been buried by the Federal Government to continue its "fake anti-corruption fight."
"It is either the money belongs to members of Buhari’s government or it is being planted by the government to sustain its fake anti-corruption fight in the minds of the people.
"Enough of stage-managed and fake anti-corruption war aimed solely at opposition figures, especially presidential hopefuls in the 2019 election," he added.
Fayose additionally said that the Buhari-led government's job is to cover the atrocities of the APC and dismantle the opposition, most especially those seen as having presidential goal.
He said: "The narrative they push daily is that only those in their government are saint while other Nigerians, including those in the national assembly, judiciary, opposition politicians and the civil servants are rogues while only Buhari’s appointees are saints.
"To worsen matters, the cluelessness of the APC government in the last two years has plunged the country into debt without anything to show.
"The cabals in the presidency are also taking advantage of the president’s state of health, which is as a result of his age to oppress Nigerians.
"Nigerians must therefore keep their eyes on the ball and not be carried away by the orchestrated distractions aimed at preventing them from seeing how the APC led government has failed woefully."
He implored the global society to pay close focus to what is happening in Nigeria, emphasizing that the cash haul seen in Ikoyi, Lagos apartment must not be allowed to be forgotten.
