PDP tackles APC over CBN monetary policies

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has tackled the All Progressives Congress (APC) over the monetary policies of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) governor, Godwin Emefiele, alleging that the apex bank has sabotaged the Nigerian economy.

According to the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, “The acceptance by the All Progressives Congress (APC) that it retained a Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) governor that allegedly supervised the sharing of money and looting of our treasury, is an admission that it deliberately sabotaged the economy and made life very difficult for Nigerians.

“The PDP invites Nigerians to note the nerviness, uneasiness and tension that have gripped the APC since the call for the resignation and prosecution of the CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele, was brought to the public, apparently for fear that such will definitely expose the atrocities of APC leaders.

“Our party insists that by the comments of the APC National Secretary, Senator John Akpan Udoedehe, the APC deliberately kept a CBN governor that supposedly supervised the “sharing and looting” of monies in office to enable APC leaders to pillage the CBN.

“Akpan Udoedehe might want to be reminded that General Buhari, as he was then known, had in his campaign, promised to fight corruption, yet he retained a CBN governor who his party is now accusing of having superintended over “sharing and looting” of funds in the CBN”. 

PDP questioned that “Is it not revealing that six years down the line, with the naira heavily depreciated, the same CBN governor, whom Akpan Udoedehe claimed to have supervised the “sharing and looting” of monies in CBN is still in office?

“We call on the APC and the Buhari Presidency to come clean on their activities in the CBN that has brought the value of our naira to her knees and stop the horrible resort by the APC to blackmail those who are demanding for transparency and accountability in the nation’s fiscal sector.”
