The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State has described the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) government under the Goodluck Jonathan administration as “the worst in the history of Nigeria”.
The party said the looting of government finances witnessed under Jonathan was unequalled in the history of corrupt governments in Africa.
In a statement by its spokesperson, Kunle Oyatomi, the party said: “Yet, some of the beneficiaries of this looting spree across Nigeria, especially in Osun, still have the effrontery to mock the victims by shifting blames on a government that had done its best for the people.
“The PDP leadership in Osun State benefitted from the looted funds which would have been available to pay salaries, if the PDP government of Goodluck Jonathan did not steal such humongous sums and wasted the nation’s resources.
“From the NNPC alone, the PDP stole trillions of Naira. The ex-minister of Finance spent billions of dollars without authorisation not to talk of other government agencies, which joined in the looting spree.”
