Some people will use grammar to confuse Buhari to sign $800 million fuel subsidy palliative in order to steal—Senator Ndume
The senator representing Borno South Senatorial District, Ali Ndume on Wednesday said the $800 million loan sought by President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration is unfair, illegal and unconstitutional.
Ndume, who vowed to challenge the loan request in court made this known in an interview on Trust TV’s Daily Politics.
According to him, some people are misleading the President.
He explained that President Buhari will just approve it because they are using grammar to confuse him. Stating that the President doesn’t understand that they just want to steal the money.
He said, “I will go to court on that because it is unfair, illegal and unconstitutional. Let me give you example, we are two now in the studio and you say you are going to borrow one million and share among the two of us, how are you going to select the two?
“Besides that, if you are giving to the two and they are the ones to pay that is okay but it is all Nigerians that will pay.
“If you give Nigerians today N4,000 randomly, how fair is that? In fact, it is unconstitutional because the constitution of Nigeria does not allow you to discriminate.
“These guys, they will just use grammar to confuse this old man (Buhari) and he will just approve. He (Buhari) doesn’t understand this, they just want to steal the money, we cannot continue to allow this kind of things.”
“What they are targeting is what they can get out of it not what Nigerians can get, you can quote me on that. Any of them can come to challenge me on TV, I will come back to explain myself; they are misleading the President,” he added.
