Buhari On Ize-Iyamu: To Be Taken Seriously, PDP Must Sack Its Governors And Senators
The Presidency says the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has no moral ground to question President Muhammadu Buhari’s war against corruption.
According to the PDP, the President’s endorsement is a dent on the government’s war against corruption, a war which the PDP says has become a failure.In his reply to the PDP, Mr Shehu said the party has forgotten its own history and antecedents. He said both PDP governors were actually on bail from criminal trial on several counts of fraud and embezzlement.
“Bala, while in office as minister, allegedly received N550 million as bribe from Aso Savings and Loans Limited with respect to some properties in the Asokoro area of Abuja. “A suspect remains a suspect until conviction. But, if in the view of the PDP, a suspect is guilty as charged, then they must show examples by withdrawing the nomination of their governors and the party’s numerous Senators and other legislators standing trial in various courts of the country.
