A national leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu, has alleged that President Goodluck Jonathan and his government are behind the theft of 400,000 barrels of crude oil daily from Nigeria.
Tinubu stated this at the flag-off of Governor Abiola Ajimobi’s campaign in Ibadan on Saturday.
He reiterated that Jonathan was allegedly responsible for the oil theft and as such Nigerians should vote him out during the presidential election.
The former Lagos state governor also described the PDP as “Poverty Development Party,” and called on Oyo residents not to allow the party to return them to the “dark days.”
“God will not take us back to the bad days again. We will not see PDP here again because God has chased them away. Segun Oni and Oyinlola have realised that PDP is not the right party. Leaders of the party have deceived us for too long but I did not allow them in Lagos.
“In the past, Oyo was a violent state but that has disappeared and we will not go back to the dark days. APC stands for the actualisation of better future for our children.
“Jonathan and his government are stealing 400,000 barrels of crude oil every day in Nigeria. He is telling us that he cannot see that amount of crude oil being stolen in the system, yet he calls himself the President. He is running a government of thieves and we will use our votes to send him away. He is taking away all our wealth,” Tinubu said.
Other leaders of the APC present at the campaign included former Chairman of the party, Bisi Akande; former Governors of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi and Segun Oni; former Governor of Osun State, Olagunsoye Oyinlola; Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State; APC Chairman in Oyo State, Akin Oke; and South-West party executives.
They all called on the electorates to return Ajimobi.
