The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has blasted the ruling All Progressives’ Congress (APC), saying they destroyed the opposition party’s great work with anti-corruption by polluting with the country’s anti-graft agencies.
The statement read, “The PDP formally came into being on the 31st of August, 1998, and has since then, remained the only viable, prosperous, strongest and most visionary political party in Nigeria,” the statement read.
“The PDP administration established two major anti-corruption agencies, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) to curb the menace of corruption in the country.
“These efforts reduced corrupt practices and further increased the confidence of foreign investors that resulted in huge investment inflows into the country.
“The APC-led government of today has destroyed the independence of these agencies with their selective approach of using ‘deodorants’ when APC members are involved and ‘insecticides’ when it concerns the PDP members and other Nigerians.”
