Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said the President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, cannot fight corruption because is allegedly a product of a corrupt electoral process.
The PDP National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, stated this yesterday at a press briefing in Abuja, while reacting to the promise by Tinubu to fight corruption.
The President-elect, while inaugurating the Magistrate Courts Complex in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State has reportedly promised to make corruption unattractive to judges and other judicial officials.
However, Ologunagba stated that the opposition, as well as all sensible Nigerians are “scandalised and embarrassed”, by the President-elect’s comment.
According to him, it is “ public knowledge that there has been numerous allegations and evidence of corruption and complicity by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in the declaration of Senator Tinubu as winner of the February 25, 2023 Presidential election.
“Today Nigerians and indeed the world believe that that declaration was a product of corruption of the process, institutions and the law by the APC and its Presidential candidate.
“It is therefore ludicrous that an individual who has been widely alleged to be an enabler and beneficiary of corruption can attempt to put himself forward to Nigerians as a champion of anti-corruption. Of course, corruption cannot fight corruption!”
The opposition spokesman further stated that if Tinubu is desirous of fighting corruption, the starting point should be to “publicly and personally” address Nigerians on the numerous allegations of corruption against him.
