The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of authorising secret release of N16.6 billion Paris Club fund to Osun State.


In a statement yesterday by the spokesman of the PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan, the opposition party said the presidentโ€™s action amounted to aiding corruption.

The PDP said its investigation had revealed that the N16.6 billion was meant to bribe officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

It also alleged that part of the money was meant to compromise international observers as to pay hoodlums to be contracted by the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in a plot to rig the upcoming September 22 governorship election in Osun.

The opposition party further alleged that part of the fund was to be moved to some unnamed private company accounts, as well as various hidden locations for the โ€˜compromisedโ€™ INEC officials and APC leaders.

โ€œThe PDP has been at alert regarding the movement of these funds and other secret deals between the APC and INEC and will not hesitate to expose the INEC officials, including a close relation of the President, who has been the arrow head of plots to rig elections for the APC.
