The governing All Progressives Congress
and the opposition Peoples Democratic Party on Sunday engaged in a war
of words over the state of the economy as well as cases of alleged
looting by the former President Goodluck Jonathan-led PDP
administration.
In separate statements in Abuja, the APC
and the PDP accused one another of economic mismanagement and of
filtering away public finds.
In a statement signed by its National
Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the APC said the party has
uncovered a list of new cases of the insane looting of the treasury by
some officials of the Jonathan’s administration, saying the corruption
mess that characterised the administration was so pervasive that until
it is cleaned, Nigeria will not be able to actualise its potential.
The
party said those who would rather give comfort to the looters by
dismissing the media exposure of looting cases as mere hell-raising
should realise that no sane person can be silent in the face of what was
unfolding as the worst cases of brazen stealing of public funds in
Nigeria’s history.
It recalled that on August 16, 2015, the
party listed some instances of the breath-taking looting of the
treasury by some officials of the immediate past administration.
