People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Chieftain in Benue State, Chief Abu
King Shuluwa has urged the incoming government of Gen. Muhammadu Buhari
to make the issue of corruption its first priority as he takes on the
mantle of leadership in the country.
Shuluwa who stated this in his Makurdi residence while speaking with
newsmen yesterday advised that the President-elect could do that without
embarking on a probe.
“The incoming government must set people to handle corruption issues.
They must make sure that they bring money that people have stacked in
their rooms. and I believe they can do away with corruption without
having to embark on a probe. If I discover any document indicting you, I
can ask you to bring the money without having to embark on any probe.”
The PDP stalwart who noted that the PDP failed in the last elections
because the presidency and the governors became too powerful such that
they felt that the voice of the didn’t matter.
He urged the incoming government of President Buhari and the All
Progressives Congress (APC) to learn from the mistakes of the PDP by
ensuring they separate governance from party affairs.post by expdonaloaded.blogspot.com..“Most of the governors were too powerful and they didn’t need
people’s advice. Governors in the states are responsible for the failure
of all the elections of the PDP in the country. All the governors
should have resigned because they were responsible for the failure of
the elections. So, Buhari should watch out and not make the same
mistake.”
“I advise the APC to separate the party from government. Don’t lump
both together. They must leave those who are running the party with the
party and those running government to run government.”
Shuluwa also advised the Governor-elect of Benue State, Dr. Samuel
Ortom to focus on payment of salary arrears owed workers in Benue as
well as energy and water in his first tenure.
