Buhari’s Government Made Of ‘Plunderers’ – Fayose

Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has claimed that plunderers in the All Progressives Congress are being shielded by the President Muhammadu Buhari government.

Governor Fayose, who described the Buhari administration as a “government of plunderers”, said the names of looters recently published by the Federal Government is politically motivated and do not reflect the true identities of thieves in the country.

It would be recalled that the Minister of Information, Alh. Lai Mohammed, had released the alleged treasury looters names and which consist chiefly of members of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

In a statement by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, the governor said: “The first list of alleged looters released by the government is politically motivated and the second one is an afterthought that was done because Nigerians questioned the first list.

“Nigerians are more interested in their welfare, security of their lives and physical development of the country than tales of corrupt Nigerians’ list.

“The Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) never pretended to Nigerians that it had no corrupt people in its fold and the party never protected them. Today, the party has gone ahead to offload the corrupt elements into the APC.

“A government that reinstated and promoted Abdullahi Maina, who was declared wanted for corrupt practices by the International Police Organisation, (INTERPOL) and dismissed in 2013 for alleged N2.1 billion pension is nothing but a government of plunderers,” Fayose said.
