“Indeed, this government stinks and has irredeemably lost all honour,”- " PDP to Buhari over NHIS scandal..
The opposition Peoples Democratic Party on Monday took up President Muhammadu Buhari’s government on its battle against corruption saying the administration stinks.
The party said the recall of the Executive Secretary of the National Health Insurance Scheme, Prof Yussuf Usman smacks of a brazen display of impunity adding that until the President clears the mess associated with this recall, his government would be seen as promoting graft.
The party’s position made known by the national publicity secretary“Nigerians can now see the level of debauchery associated with this administration. It is appalling that a government can be so depraved that it superintended over the stealing of money meant to provide healthcare for the citizens.
“Who in the Presidency authorized the withdrawal of the money from the TSA and who are the beneficiaries thereof?
“What has the Presidency to say about revelations that it ordered the reinstatement of the indicted Executive Secretary of the NHIS, Prof. Yusuf Usman, to help conceal this illegal withdrawals and shield members of the presidency cabals involved in the deal?
“Until and unless the Presidency clears its name by investigating, exposing and prosecuting those involved, it must directly be held responsible for this wicked act against Nigerians, who daily suffer hunger, depravation and death owing to the corruption in the APC government.
“The Presidency has also failed to offer explanations on the alleged involvement of its officials in various sneaky oil subsidy deals as well as reported diversion of N1.1trillion worth of crude last year to service APC interests.
“Nigerians are aware that the Presidency has continued to shield fraudulent cabinet ministers including those known for extorting funds from agencies under them in addition to those indicted for corrupt enrichment.
“Indeed, this government stinks and has irredeemably lost all honour,” the statement reads.
