Following the All Progressives Congress (APC) decision to hand over the Party’s National Chairmanship to former Kano Governor, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said that Ganduje has corruption scores and not fit for chairman.
The Party said this in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Hon. Debo Ologunagba.
The statement, which was published on the Party’s Twitter handle @OfficialPDPNig has that, the choice of Dr Ganduje by the APC as its National Chairman, in spite of the corruption and bribery allegations against him on diverse public space, showcases the APC as “corrupt and a haven for thieves, bribe takers and treasury looters.
“By appointing Ganduje, notoriously referred to as “Gandola” by Nigerians over the infamous video of him barefacedly stuffing his gown with US Dollar notes as bribe allegedly from a contractor, while serving as Governor of Kano State, further validates that the APC is a putrid Party of embezzlers and charlatans.
“The PDP invites Nigerians to note that only last month, a forensic analysis by the Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission (PCACC) confirmed that the content of the 2017 “Gandollar” viral video was not doctored.
“If Ganduje is desirous to “hit the ground running” as he asserted, he should run to the EFCC for investigation and prosecution for cases of alleged bribery and corruption hanging around his neck.” The statement partly reads.
