THE
Presidency and the national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP, were sharply divided, yesterday, over the sources of the N804.7
billion relief package being worked out to bail out many states of the
country from their unpaid salaries burden.
While the PDP said that a significant amount of the princely sum came from savings left behind by the out-gone administration of Dr Goodluck Jonathan, the Presidency disagreed, arguing that the money came from proceeds of Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas (NLNG).
Upon assumption of office on May 29, President Muhammadu Buhari said
the departing PDP government left an empty treasury and pleaded with
Nigerians for patience as they await urgent implementation of his change
agenda.
The Presidency also refuted some media reports that the presidential relief package was drawn from the Excess Crude Accounts, ECA, stressing that the ECA is intact. This came as state governments, the leadership of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and some eminent Nigerians lauded President Muhammadu Buhari over the relief package, saying itwill help boost the economy.
Buhari, APC should learn from PDP and save for the rainy day –PDP
In a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, the PDP said that the bailout would go a long way in alleviating the sufferings of Nigerian workers in various states of the federation, most of whom have been without their wages for several months.
The party, however, noted that a significant amount of the bailout came from savings accumulated in the Excess Crude Account handed over to the Buhari administration by the past Jonathan-led administration.
“This development is in clear contradiction to the earlier impression given by President Buhari to Nigerians and the international community that they should not expect much from his administration in its first 100 days because according him, on assumption of office, he met a virtually empty treasury.
“We want to believe that given the President’s release of such huge amount, he may have realized that he was earlier misdirected on the actual financial state of the nation at the time he took over. In this regard, we expect the President, as a respected statesman to do the needful to correct that erroneous impression.
“Furthermore, we expect President Buhari’s APC administration as direct beneficiary of this savings initiated by past PDP administrations to appreciate the strategic importance of always saving for rainy days and as such guarantee prudent and transparent management of the nation’s resources now under its care.”
