MONEY KEEPS MISSING UNDER BUHARI’S WATCH – PASTOR AKINRINLOLA
MONEY KEEPS MISSING UNDER BUHARI’S WATCH – PASTOR AKINRINLOLA
Pastor Olumide
Akinrinlola, the President of Council of Concerned Youth of Nigeria (CCYN), has
questioned why several sums of public fund have regularly missed under
President Muhammadu Buhari’s watch.
According to him, it was
not an offence to constructively criticise Buhari and keep his government on
its toes to forestall the unprecedented looting of the treasury through award
of contracts and lack of due process.
In a statement issued in
Abuja, Akinrinlola said: “I do not like the type of Nigerian who always
attaches political sentiment with everything.
“Yes! Some of us are
well known for constructive criticism against president Buhari and APC government.
It’s all for the best of Nigeria to always put any ruling government to her
toes.
“But some of you who see
us as opposition voice must also know that they are not honest and true to
themselves when most of the time they see every criticism against Buhari and
APC government as error or partisanship.
“People must also be
educated that stealing of money, embezzlement of funds or corrupt practices are
not done via bank withdrawals or by taking away physical cash from government
vault, but through award of contracts and lack of due process.
“Under Same Buhari, Oil
money to the tune of $2.8bn was missing as at when our Naira was still having
value. That reminds me of the song of Fela Anikulapo of blessed memory.
“Again, as PTF Chairman,
$500m was also missing which led to the collapse of PTF till date.
“Now, as President and
Minister of Petroleum, $26bn is missing and you said people are not educated
for asking question. You said a serving son of God has committed sin for
speaking out his mind.
“Some APC stooges call
me a political Pastor all because I am used to speaking against the propaganda
of this current government to always cover their wrong doing and divert public
attention from their corrupt practices.
“What manner of Nigerian
are you if everything you see about Buhari and APC is all correct?
“Why is money always
missing under Buhari?”
