The All Progressives Congress has said nobody is above the law under the regime of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.).
This was contained in a statement titled, “PDP on corruption: Nobody is above the law in APC’s Government,” signed by it’s National Publicity Secretary, Yekini Nabena, in Abuja, on Sunday.
Nabena’s statement was in response to an earlier one titled, “Corruption in Buhari Presidency, APC, Responsible for Poverty in Nigeria – PDP…Says Treasury Looting Is APC’s Manifesto, signed by his Peoples Democratic Party counterpart, Kola Ologbondiyan.
The APC in its response assured Nigerians that the Buhari regime would not condone any form of corrupt practices even as the regime is committed to fighting corruption as promised.
Nabena said, “The former ruling party PDP does not have what it takes to lament about alleged corrupt practices in the present administration of APC. It is on the record that the PDP is the founder of corruption in Nigeria, to the extent that the evil practices were made official way of life during its 16 wasteful years.
“In APC’s government, nobody is above the law. The fact that the suspended acting chairman of the EFCC, Ibrahim Magu, is being investigated should send a signal to all those who think and have blackmailed the government’s anti-corruption battle.”
He noted that the Presidency has given assurances that there was no hiding place for any corrupt government official in the current administration which is led by an incorruptible personality, in the person of President Muhammadu Buhari.
The APC urged Nigerians to ignore the PDP which it described as “an unrepentant corrupt” party.
