The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to tender unreserved apology to the entire nation for allegedly “allowing his administration to deceive Nigerians while secretly running an over-bloated and sleazy oil subsidy regime as now exposed by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).
In a series of tweets, on Friday, from its verified twitter handle, the main opposition party, said that a recent revelation by Managing Director of the NNPC, Mele Kyari, to the effect that the Federal Government had “been running an over-bloated subsidy which is against the national interest.”
The tweets read, “The @OfficialPDPNig said its demand is predicated on the confession by the @NNPCgroup Managing Director, Mele Kyari, that the @MBuhari administration had been running an over-bloated subsidy which is against the national interest.
“Our party holds that Kyari’s open confession is a direct vindication of our stand that the APC-led administration has been neck deep in serial oil fraud.
“The party notes as appalling that while President Buhari castigated previous PDP administrations and announced that oil subsidy existed only as a fraud, he had secretly continued to preside over an over-bloated subsidy regime through which over N14 trillion belonging to Nigerians have been stolen.”
