Sharing Recovered $320m/N98bn Abacha loot: APC reinvents culture of vote buying


Dr. Nnaemeka Onyeka Obiaraeri

I will be shocked, If Saraki and Dogara  allow/approve the  planned  sharing of the N98bn recovered Abacha loot by the Buhari government amongst the phantom poorest folks in Nigeria.

The APC has REINVENTED and restructured the vote buying antics into another fearsome and brazen dimension.  Now they share monies to voters even with the aide of security men and electoral officials.

Having weaponized  poverty across the nation space ,  through their  retrogressive and poverty foisting policies, which has seen over 10Million Nigerians pushed into the gaping extreme poverty hell hole in the last three years , N98Bn will buy over 19m votes at N5000 per vote.

For those of you thinking that 2019 is going to bring the nun dimities of the APC across the political  landscape of  Nigeria because of  their too glaring  records of atrocious governance  over the last three years , you are in for a shocker.

Let me tell you the raw truth that people have deliberately shied away from discussing in public.  Kindly multiply  30m liters PMS per day by N145 per liter and by the number of days from January 2016 to January 2018.

Add the subsidy leg paid on this amount and you will have an idea the humongous amount of monies that may be available to those in power to buy votes of impoverished and pauperised Nigerians in 2019.

In case,  you are still confused and don't understand what this man means .

Please I want you to note that the sudden spike in the volume of PMS consumed in Nigeria daily from average of 30m liters per day before may 2015 to average of 53m- 60m liters a day under Baru And Buhari is not accidental, coincidental or a reflection of the reality and  facts on the ground (please do not be deceived by their product  smuggling tales.

Have we all forgotten that we have an incorruptible Customs Comptroller General now , Hamid Alli . How can smuggling rise when the incentive and margins are far lower today at the pump price of N145 today up from N87,when we had average consumption of 30m of the PMS  a day?

The spike in the amount paid as subsidy on the PMS from N600m a day before May 2015 to N2.4bn a day under Buhari and Baru is also not accidental.

Use your tongue to count your teeth . We are in for a torrid time in 2019 . For every you and your knowledgeable likes , who have conscience and comfortable enough not to sell your votes , there are 1,000 other  Nigerians, who live in such extreme poverty that N5000 for their vote will be worth more than gold.

We are dealing with monsters and behemoths , who have over N700bn of our cornered commonwealth to throw around.

 Dasuki and PDP are truly learners compared to the sophistication and brazenness of the warchest and Armada (cash and furious forces of coercion),  those,  who control the levers of power today will unleash on hapless and helpless Nigerians
