POLITICSObasanjo, Atiku wasted $16bn on power, punished me for being in opposition – TinubuPublished on December 20, 2022By Ishola Oludare Presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, has accused former President Olusegun Obasanjo and his Vice, Atiku Abubakar of spending $16.5 billion on the nation’s power sector without any results. Tinubu said Atiku, who is the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, confirmed it himself that the money was spent on electricity between 1999 and 2007. DAILY POST recalls that Tinubu was the Lagos State governor during the eight years rule of Obasanjo and Atiku. While he was answering questions at a town hall meeting held in Calabar, capital of Cross River on Tuesday, the APC candidate maintained that PDP under Obasanjo and Atiku failed to provide electricity for Nigerians, urging Nigerians not to vote for the party in 2023. “Power is the biggest human discovery in the last 1000 years. Tell me what you can do without power. That is why the so-called PDP must never come back. They spent 16.5 (billion) dollars some years back, Obasanjo and Atiku. “Atiku said it with his mouth that they collected our money from even local governments, states and others, but they didn’t know what they did with it. They could not provide a kilowatt to roast a corn. What they have forgotten is that the colonial masters left a transmission line for us in a centralised form,” he said. Tinubu alleged that he was punished by Obasanjo and Atiku for bringing power to Lagos because he was not a member of the PDP. “I brought power for Lagos State, instead of embracing intellect and good idea, they (Obasanjo and Atiku) punished me for it because I was in the opposition. “Never again should you give them any opportunity for power. We gave them opportunity, they balkanized the power, balkanized the transmission. They didn’t know it is a highway for evacuation of electricity, they didn’t know it should be maintained, they didn’t know it should be decentralized. Generation, they balkanized it, shared it among their friends; distribution, no metre, they give you estimated billing. Reject them. Any government under PDP is a curse,” Tinubu said angrily. 1 Like |

Moh247: Lying lair. LGA allocation wasn't ceased. You technically added LGA and LCDA just to sound clever and deceptive. Criminal lootocrats. LGA allocation was never at any time ceased. As for LCDA, that's his business. Nobody sent him to create some illegal institutions for political gains. 3 Likes |

Moh247: What facts? The initial lie was that Obasanjo ceased Lagos state allocation and that Tinubu managed Lagos without allocation When that "fact" turned out to be false, his urchins switched to local government allocation. We exposed that lie and now, they're switching to LCDA. What is Tinubu's business with local government funds in the first place? Is he a local government chairman? 4 Likes 1 Share |
