Paul Ibe, Media Adviser to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has questioned the continued silence of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his administration over an allegation that N100 billion is being withdrawn monthly from the Federation Account without legislative approval.
This was disclosed in a post on his social media handle.
Ibe referenced claims by former Kaduna State Governor and
African Democratic Congress (ADC) chieftain, Nasir El-Rufai, alleging that the
withdrawals were carried out without appropriation by the National Assembly and
the State Houses of Assembly.
He wrote: “When is President Bola Tinubu @officialABAT and
his administration going to respond to the allegation by @elrufai, former
Kaduna State Governor and chieftain of the @ADCNig that Tinubu caused the
withdrawal of N100 billion monthly from the Federation Account without
appropriation of the NASS and State Assemblies?”
He further described the alleged action as unconstitutional,
adding: “By the way, the action is unconstitutional and amounts to an
impeachable offence.”
Questioning the Presidency’s silence, Ibe also linked it to
the President’s reported foreign trip, saying: “Or we may have to wait until
his return from Turkey, a date we cannot even hazard a guess?”
