The Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) has challenged Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo to name its corrupt members.
Kola Ologbondiyan, national
publicity secretary of the PDP, said this while reacting to the claim of the
vice-president that the PDP destroyed Nigeria’s economy when it was in power.
The nation’s number two citizen
also vowed not to stop talking about the alleged misdeeds of the former ruling
party.
He spoke at the 10th Bola Tinubu
Colloquium in Lagos.
Reacting when he featured as a
guest on Channels Television, Ologbondiyan dismissed Osinbajo’s claim.
He argued that as a professor of
law, Osinbajo, ought to have substantiated his allegation by providing names.
“We challenge him to stop
branding figures. He should mention names of those whom he claims corrupted
themselves,” Ologbondiyan said.
“If he cannot mention their
names, and he cannot cause their arrest and he cannot even list these people,
he should keep quiet.”
Ologbondiyan also asked Osinbajo
to stop blaming the party for corruption over the years.
“Our advice to the
vice-president, as a professor of law, he knows the pathway to follow when you
accuse somebody of corruption,” he said.
“It is not enough to come to the
public arena, more so as a man of God, and begin to make an allegation about
corruption always.”
Ologbondiyan added that rather
than continue trying to drag the PDP’s name and those of its members in the
mud, the APC government should tell Nigerians its achievements in the three
years it has been in power.
