Less than six months to 2019 general elections, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said that all those looting the national treasury, including those enjoying President Muhammadu Buhari’s official cover, will definitely face the wrath of the law and go to jail, as Atiku Abubakar administration will not only fight poverty, but will also uncompromisingly fight corruption.

Explaining part of Atiku’s blueprint, the party said that the former Vice President will open a system-wide fight against corruption as soon as he’s elected into office by strengthening the institutions empowered by the laws to do their jobs, while he concentrates on the onerous duty of governance and rescuing Nigerians from hunger, starvation, bloodlettings and wanton killings.

PDP, in a statement by its spokesman, Kola Ologbondiyan pointed out that Atiku’s administration will liberate the nation from the economic shackles that President Buhari’s wasteful, notoriously incompetent, and deceptive administration has plunged the country into.

Challenging Buhari to give account of his failed stewardship, PDP assured Nigerians that Atiku would revamp the nation’s economy through the creation of qualitative employment for the youths.

The party said its candidate will also implement the political and economic restructuring of the nation in a manner that will engender unity, inclusiveness in governance and upliftment in the general standard of living for all the people.

PDP maintains that on election into office, its presidential candidate will immediately commence the marketing of Nigeria to the international business community, as well as providing a clement environment for businesses to thrive in our nation.

“Atiku will open a system-wide fight against corruption as soon as he is elected into office by strengthening the institutions empowered by our laws to do their jobs, while he concentrates on the onerous duty of governance and rescuing our people from hunger, starvation, bloodlettings and wanton killings.

“All those looting the national treasury, including those now enjoying President Buhari’s official cover, will definitely face the wrath of the law and go to jail, because the Atiku Abubakar administration will not only fight poverty but will also uncompromisingly fight corruption,” it said.

The party noted that a combination of Atiku Abubakar and his running mate, Peter Obi, known internationally for their forthrightness, hardwork, ingenuity and managerial competencies, guarantees a prudent and result-oriented administration that “will liberate our nation from the economic shackles that President Buhari’s wasteful, notoriously incompetent, and deceptive administration has plunged us into.

.PDP, however, forewarned all looters in the Buhari Presidency, including those involved in the alleged stealing of over N14 trillion from several sleazy oil deals; the alleged undisclosed oil revenue leading to the deadlock at the Federal Accounts Allocation Committee (FAAC); alleged stealing of funds meant for Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) among other sleazes covered by the Buhari Presidency, to get ready to vomit their loots and face the law in no distant time.
