Alhaji Musa Iliyasu Kwankwaso, a chieftain of the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, in Kano State, has revealed that the reason why the
President Muhammadu Buhari-led All Progressives Congress, APC, couldn’t
published names of those who returned looted money as demanded by most
Nigerians was because majority of those who made the lists were from the party.
Kwankwaso, who made the revelation in an interview,said
President Buhari lied to Nigerians when he said the list of treasury looters
could not be published because of legal action.
“Possibly, majority of people affected in the list are PDP,
that is the reason why they refused to release the list. They don’t suppose to
give the list to Information Minister, Lai Mohammed to release the names in
first place because EFCC has a public relations officer, and they are the one
who write the names of everybody.How can they handover the matter to
information ministry and why? he quarried.
According to Kwankwaso, “It is the responsibility of the
EFCC, because it’s not under any body, they can charge APC and PDP members,
provided they are telling Nigerians that they are not been selective. “That is
the reason why they refused to release the list. APC people are the majority in
the list of treasury looters. That is why they hided the list.
“Instead of EFCC to release it, they allowed federal
government to have the list so that they can delete the APC members.
“Anytime you read papers Buhari and APC members will be
saying PDP people are thieves, and stole all the money, and you cannot call
someone thief until a competent court declared the person of doing so,” he
reasoned.
