Buhari could probe PDP’s source of campaign funds

A group, Forward With Buhari (FWD) has called on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission(EFCC), the police and other sister security agencies to beam their search light on the sources of campaign funds for the presidential election of the Peoples’ Democratic Party(PDP).

A statement on Friday in Abuja by the National Secretary of FWB, Dr. Kayode Ajulo, said the opposition party had recently called for the probing of the electoral processes, adding that the probe should be total and holistic.

According to Ajulo, “The opposition has also called for the probing into the election processes, which we believe is not out of place.

“However, probing must be wholesale and thorough. Probing must also involve the PDP with regard to the sources of its election finances and allied transactions.

“We have it on good authority that a bulk of the finances of the PDP was drawn from the stolen monies from our commonwealth– particularly of interest is the information that some of those who ran out of Nigeria were loitering in the neighbouring countries during the just concluded presidential election.

“This corrupt means of election funding must be captured in the imminent probing efforts of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) and sister agencies.

“We shall not hesitate to forward our petitions to these bodies to ensure a thorough and comprehensive investigation into the cooked books of the PDP to expose the sources of funding of their clandestinely shrouded flamboyant campaign.
