‘Buhari’s Stance Against Corruption Has Been The PDP’s Major Headache’ ─ Osinbajo

The vice presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo has said the plans of his ticket with presidential candidate Muhammadu Buhari can be achieved.

He added that only corrupt elements were scared by the possibility of being probed if the retired general and former military head of state won the March 28 presidential vote.

Osinbajo, in a statement released on Sunday, spoke at an interactive session with some Christian and Muslim leaders at a forum organised by the All Christian Leaders Ministers Forum.

The vice presidential candidate said it was the resolve of the APC and Buhari to tackle corruption.

In his words: “Buhari’s stance against corruption has been the major headache for his opponents. It is the reason that they have embarked on mudslinging to run down Buhari rather than embark on an issue-based campaign.

“The APC manifesto and our plans to feed pupils of the public school a meal per day, youth empowerment programme, training programme for graduates after their national youth service and encouragement of farmers by buying their farm produce, among others can be achieved with transparency and accountability, which we are bringing to the table.”

Osinbajo also said the Jonathan administration had ‘bastardised’ the nation’s economy by allowing oil theft to thrive, assuring Nigerians that this would be a thing of the past when the APC forms the next federal government.
