ACN Govs Are Corrupt - Buhari General Mohammadu Buhari, leader of the yet to be registered All Progressives Congress, APC, which is hoping to benefit from the numerical strength of the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, and presidential candidate of the Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, in the 2011 presidential election has accused ACN governors of corruption. Spokesman for Gen. Buhari and chieftain of the Save Nigeria Group, Mr. Yinka Odumakin alleged that Governors of the ACN award one Kilometer of Road construction for N1 Billion. Odumakin said, “I can tell you authoritatively that the most dangerous and terrible tendency in Yoruba politics is the house of deceit that Tinubu represents.” The spokesman for Gen. Mohammadu Buhari recalled how he dragged former Governor Alao Akala to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, for awarding One Kilometer of road forN50 Million and said most Yoruba leaders are “greedy.” Continuing, the spokesman for General Mohammadu Buhari said;“I can tell you authoritatively that the most dangerous and terrible tendency in Yoruba politics is the house of deceit that Tinubu represents. “Only those who have sold their souls will ignore this fact. There has never been any such greedy bunch in our nation; not even under the PDP.” “I took Akala before EFCC in 2010 for awarding roads at N50m per km in all the LGs in Oyo state. Today your Asiwaju is collecting N1b per km across the South- West. “When Tinubu turned 60 ACN states contributed N1b for a bash, nobody tried that in Yoruba land before. “Chief Adebanjo was chairman of AD in 1999 and not one relation of his got a ticket unlike your Tinubu, whose wife is a senator, son in law a Rep, Sister in law a House member in Lagos and daughter now Iyaloja via imposition . Your grouse with the old men may be for reasons you have not stated but you know they are far more honorable than a million Bola Tinubu.” Odumakin has been Buhari’s spokesman from the electioneering days in 2011; Gen. Buhari lost the election which triggered off violence in parts of the North. Critics believe that the electoral violence that claimed several lives, especially of NYSC members was caused by inciting comments by his supporters. Presently, the APC is on the verge of being registered by INEC and the ACN is a major stakeholder in the merger deal.
