The All Progressives Congress (APC) yesterday gave a fresh insight to
the alleged mismanagement of public funds under the watch of former
President Goodluck Jonathan.
According to the party, at least N11.09
trillion was either stolen or could not be accounted for by officials of
the previous administration.
But in a quick riposte, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) that was
the ruling party then, dismissed the claim and accused the governing
party of playing to the gallery.
The APC’s allegation, contained in a
statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai |Mohammed,
came just as the Nigerian Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative
(NEITI) urged the newly-appointed Group Managing Director of the
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, to
recover $11.6 billion of Nigerian Liquefied Natural Gas (NLNG) funds
that were not remitted to the Federation Account.
The APC, in the
statement, in which it rallied support for the efforts by President
Muhammadu Buhari to recover stolen public funds, urged him to recover
the N11.09 trillion from officials who served his predecessor.
