Ahmed Makarfi, a presidential
aspirant on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), says the
corruption under All Progressives Congress (APC) is worse than 16 years when
PDP ruled.
Speaking with PDP leaders in
Enugu as part of his nationwide consultation on his aspiration, Makarfi said
the extent of corruption in the country would not be known until APC leaves
power.
The former Kaduna governor
alleged the anti-graft war is weak under the current administration because it
has been politicised.
He said APC is always accusing
the PDP of being corrupt, yet it took measures to fight against corruption by
establishing anti-graft agencies.
“By the time APC is kicked out in
2019, you will know that the corruption in the system now is even worse now
than in PDP’s 16 years. It is usually difficult to investigate a government in
power,” Makarfi said.
“But, I must tell you clearly
that this government is corrupt. They keep saying PDP is corrupt, yet we established
EFCC, ICPC etc, which showed our readiness to fight corruption from the
beginning.”
Makarfi said the best of the
presidential aspirants must be chosen at the party’s convention in a bid to
wrest power from the APC in 2019.
He added that the PDP’s presidential
candidate would tell if the PDP will return to power in 2019 or not.
Very correct Sir.
