2019: Senator Alimikhena Talk Tough, Says “PDP Would Have Auction Nigeria If Not Buhari Intervention”
Senate Deputy Whip Senator Francis Alimikhena has expressed confidence that President Muhammadu Buhari will win any election in Nigeria even with 48 hours notification before the election. His performance is a Sufficient campaign to guarantee his victory at any poll despite the any short notice. ” The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) would have auction Nigeria if giving the opportunity. The high level fraud and abuse that characterized the privatization exercise under the PDP era would have continue and left this county as a barren nation if not the emergency of president Muhammadu Buhari who terminated their plans of making Nigeria a miserable place.
“The massive privatization that the PDP era embarked upon cannot be justify because even those government agencies that were booming were also privatized due to corruption. PDP sold our National Assets among themselves. They buy off state enterprises at a rates lower than the market values. They would have sold every thing and education would have been a luxury but APC rescued Nigerians. The poor would not have been educated if not APC. “To vote PDP is to deprived the less fortunate from been educated in Nigeria”
According to Senator Alimikhena, President Buhari is not a vain glorious president. He has proved that he is a better and capable president by strenthening various governmental institutions. “The same JAMB that was a drain pipe of government resources and a financial pressure on our treasury during the PDP era, the same JAMB has become a major source of revenue in APC administration. President Muhammadu Buhari has shown commitment in tackling our challenges in order to build a verile nation.
The Deputy Whip of Senate maintained that “Billions and trillions of naira that were accrued to government from agencies like CUSTOM, JAMB, NIMASA, FIRS, etc in recent times was as a result of the integrity, prudence and discipline of the Buhari administration. If such discipline was visible in the PDP era in Nigeria many government properties would not have been privatized. PDP should hide their face in shame rather than seeking for another opportunity to privatized and distribute the remaining Nigerian assets among themselves.
The Edo North Senator stated this weekend ahead of the 2019 sensitization program organized by members of Edo North Investment forum on “Evaluation of Government Investment” an initiative meant to encourage entrepreneurship in the in Edo North. He said, “Nigeria government invested heavily in public utilities as a tool for public intervention because government was afraid to leave such important utilities invest the hands of private individuals but these utilities gulped billions of naira without yielding result due to poor management and indiscipline of the PDP.
“The Inability of these public enterprises to performed under the PDP era became unbearable and pronounced because they became financial pressure on government and burden on the national treasury. This was the clueless situation that force them into privatization even though the decree was made in 1988 it was implemented by the PDP. Both public and private investment can only yield the desire result when discipline and accountability are the watch word and not lose leadership. Those same institutions that were drain pipe in PDP era has become source of wealth for all Nigerians. PDP is not an option and Nigerians must not compromise their sovereignty in the 2019 general election.
Sovereignty belongs to the people and through election they gave it to president Muhammadu Buhari to exercise it on their behalf and Buhari has the massive support of the people because he can be trusted with power. He can be trusted with Nigeria resources. Unlike the PDP, Buhari won’t sale our collective heritage even if the whole nation is sleeping.”
Relishing the various triumphs of President Muhammadu Buhari, Senator Francis Alimikhena emphasis that Buhari have given succour to the ordinary people and hope to millions. More Nigerians have relocated back home from abroad due to the enabling environment and entrenching Democratic governance which impacted on the lives of the people. He has put Nigerians at the centre of all development by targeting his energies to the eradication of poverty, providing employment, social justice and integration.
“2019 general election is a destiny decision for Nigeria future and we must not return back to the era where corruption was our identity. Under the PDP era, EFCC was a shelter for the corrupt. But today, EFCC is like a rain that everybody run to avoid. The action of president Muhammadu Buhari in strengthening government institutions is an indication that democracy is alive and kicking well in Nigeria. Our international image and pride has been restore. The economy that Buhari inherited was bartered beyond recognition and we must not vote for the PDP in the 2019 election in order for us not to return back to Egypt.
While assuring the various stakeholders in the Afemai project of effective representation, Senator Alimikhena said, Edo North is the home of APC. “My performance and infrastructural development in Edo North has already started giving PDP sleeplessness night. “If our Senatorial election is tomorrow, just tomorrow with twenty four hours notification I will defeat PDP and any other political party. My performance is a sufficient campaign.” He assured the people of Edo North that all hailing government properties in the area will be reinvigorated and be put to optimal use in order to revive the economic life of the Afemai community.
