How APC is giving Saraki ‘the Jonathan treatment’ – Timi Frank

Former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), Comrade Timi Frank, has called on Nigerians to charge
the leadership of the ruling party to face governance instead of
distracting the nation with the issue of National Assembly.

In a statement signed on Thursday in Abuja, Frank said the APC has
suddenly shifted the blame game from former President Goodluck
Jonathan, who the party blamed for three years, to Senate President
Bukola Saraki.

The Bayelsa-born politician said: "For good three years, APC was busy
blaming former President Goodluck Jonathan for all its failures but it
seems the last one year has been dedicated to blame Saraki for the
same reason.

"Nigerians must wake up. We must not allow this unnecessary
diversionary tactics. APC should tell Nigerians why it is difficult to
rescue the remaining Chibok and Dapchi School girls, why insecurity is
getting worse, why are people loosing job daily, why is it hard for
many Nigerians to put food on their table daily?"

On talks about corruption, Frank challenged the APC government to
probe the activities of its cabinet members in the last three years to
know the level of corruption associated with the current
administration.

"Why is it difficult for the presidency to speak or allow some of the
cabinet members who are having one corruption allegation or the other
hanging on their necks to be probed?

"Some appointees of this government have been allegedly named in
certificate scandals and the presidency is not bothered. White papers
in various states have indicted some others but the leadership of
President Muhammadu Buhari has decided to look the other way.

"I believe that Nigerians will judge right in the coming 2019
elections. The government of propaganda and deceit will be sent
parking because all their lies are no longer hidden to the public," he
said.
