Tinubu reveals how Obasanjo, Atiku squandered PTDF money
The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, has accused former president Olusegun Obasanjo and his Vice President, Atiku Abubakar of financial recklessness.
Addressing party members and supporters on Tuesday during a presidential rally in Damaturu, the Yobe State capital, Tinubu alleged that Obasanjo and Atiku squandered the Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF).
Tinubu alleged that the former president and Atiku, who is now the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) shared the PTDF money and started buying cars for their girlfriends.
According to the former governor of Lagos State, Obasanjo and Atiku later argued and fought about the PDTF money, instead of using it for the purpose intended.
He said: “We mean what we say. We are not like that other party, 16 years of argument, absent-mindedness.
“Obasanjo and Atiku after sharing money in PTDF, what did they do? They started buying cars for their girlfriends and they went to the Wuse Market in Abuja and argued about it and fought, shame on them.
“We will not in any way fight with his Vice President. We are going to revive the economy, create jobs for our youths and develop agriculture.”
Tinubu equally assured that his administration will consolidate on the successes made by the Buhari administration by injecting more ideas that will help in giving more sense of belonging to the electorates across the country.
