The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has asked the Minister of
Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, not to hide under the disagreements in
his party to shy away from explaining how N4.6 billion public fund was diverted
in his ministry.
PDP described as disheartening a situation where a minister
failed to explain the alleged payment of funds in 654 tranches to 21 private
bank accounts in a space of two months.
The party stated this in a statement by its spokesman, Kola
Ologbondiyan.
According to PDP: “Fashola has failed to respond to
Nigerians inquisitions on how he allegedly oversaw such a corrupt system, which
points to why our nation’s power, housing and road infrastructure sector had
remained in shambles despite the huge resources allocated during the tenure.
“Instead, what we see are attempts to use primordial
discussion related to disagreements in the APC to divert attention from the
fraud allegation.
“It is rather pathetic that Fashola is still in his
political pipe dream under a rejected All Progressives Congress (APC) when the
people have moved on even as Nigerians of goodwill are already rallying on the
platform of our party for solutions to the myriads of problems brought upon our
nation by the APC.”
