Nigerian politics: The devils bargain


Godson Obot shared Uwakwe-mangse Hanna 's
post — with Bayo Aparimo and 19 others.
A sub-set of a set who defects to APC recently
revealed himself at the senate while he was
being screen, by responding; God forbid when he
was asked are you a member of the PDP
meanwhile he held a very sensitive potfolio in the
Country under the platform. The masses should
note that, adherence to moral and ethical values
is imbibe, inculcated, personal set of principle by
an individual which navigates onse conduct and
not to push the blame on innanimate (Party)
platform, 78 percent of APC members deffected
from several political parties including the PDP
whom most of them held key public offices but
purposefuly mention PDP to confuse
unsuspecting masses instead of taking the
blame for their misdeeds.

From a Friend:
PDP Destroyed Nigeria For 16
Years?
How? Moment of Truth and Setting the Record
Straight.
It is non-contestable that between May 29, 1999
and May 29, 2015, "PDP"(in quote) occupied the
seat of power in Abuja and control majority
states in the federation.
However, we have to get our fact right with
respect to "who destroyed Nigeria between 1999
and 2015".
I believe we should do a holistic analysis on this
subject.
1). Presidents and Vice Between 1999-2015.
Nigeria had three presidents between May 29,
1999 and May 29, 2015.
Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, Late Mallam Umaru
Yar'adua and Dr Goodluck Jonathan.
Of the three, Obasanjo spent eight years in
office(1999-2007).
Yar'adua three years (May 2007-May 2010).
Dr Jonathan five years (May 2010-May 2015).
Obasanjo with highest number of time spent
(Eight years) denounced PDP to become APC
and Buhari's navigator to office.
Similarly, of the three vice presidents between
the period, Atiku Abubakar spent the most
number of years in office (Eight, 1999-2007).
He not only moved to AC/APC while in office in
2006, he also aspired to rule Nigeria on APC
platform in 2014 and is a member of APC's
Board of Trustees.
2). Prominent Government Officials:
Nasir Elrufai was DG Bureau for Public
Enterprise and Secretary of National Council on
Privatisation between 1999 and 2003.
He later became minister of FCT between 2003
and 2007.
As DG BPE and Secretary of NCP, he supervised
the privatisation of NEPA, NITEL etc..ALL were
emershed in controversy.
By virtue of his office, Atiku Abubakar was the
Chairman of NCP between 1999 and 2007.
Both men supervised the privatisation of public
companies for the period. They are APC
members.
Danjuma Goje, was the minister of state for
power between 1999 and 2003.
Rabiu Kwankwaso was minister of Defence
between 2003 and 2007.
Both are members of APC BoT and Senators.
Samuel Orthom served as minister of state,
trade and investment between 2011 and 2015.
Nasir Elrufai was minister of FCT between 2003
and 2007.
They are now Governors of Benue and Kaduna
states respectively.
Should we forget all these?
3) State Administrations Between 1999-2015:
Between 1999 and 2015, Gombe has had three
Governors, Abubakar Hashidu (4years), Danjuma
Goje (8years) and Ibrahim Dankwambo(4years).
Both Hashidu and Goje are members of APC.
That is a combined 12years.
In Kwara state, all governors since 1999 are
APC members save late Lawal who ruled under
APP.
In Anambra state, ex-Govs Mbadiniju (4years),
Nwabuweze Chris Ngige (3years), and Peter Obi
(8years) were Governors.
Mbadinuju and Ngige are APC members. That is
a combined 7years between 1999-2014.
PDP Obi held sway for 8 years.
Similarly, in Benue state George Akume was held
sway from 1999-2007(and Senator 2007 till
date). He is APC chieftain now.
All Governors of Osun state between 1999 till
date are APC members.
Also in Ekiti state, of the 16 years, PDP's
Fayose only had four.
Otunba Niyi Adebayo(4years), Segun Oni (3
years) and Fayemi (4years) are BOT members
of APC.
In Abia state, Uzo Kalu that held sway between
1999 to 2007 is a Chief of APC.
APC Govs has been in power in Lagos state all
through the period.
The list is endless.
Majority of these people were at one time or the
other indicted for corrupt practices and fraud
while in office.
Most of these people are members of APC and
some appointed into offices.
ALL of them combined are responsible for the
sorry state of things in Nigeria.
We can't forget so soon that it was Saraki and
Amaechi(as NGF Chairpersons) that moved for
the Sharing and depletion of the Excess Crude
Account, which GEJ bowed to between 2007
and 2012.
In fact, they also pushed for the sharing of One
Billion Dollars in Soveriegn Wealth Fund but was
resisted by Jonathan.
Today, Saraki is not just APC Senator but also
the Senate President, while Amaechi is a
minister-designate.
Can we forget so soon that Audu Ogbeh, a
minister-designate and APC Senator Barnabas
Germade were PDP National Chairmen between
these period.
The continuous claim by the Buhari
administration that "PDP destroyed Nigeria" for
sixteen years only shows that the present
administration is yet to understand the problem
of Nigeria.
I will advice that # Buhari save Nigerians these
excuses and focus on the job he was elected to
do.
# PDP is not the name of any official, APC
Chieftains have been part of the system.
All these shows the insincerity Buhari
government and APC gullible goons.
May God save Nigerians in Hands of APC
By Benedicta Awhefada
