Suit Against EFCC: Governors trying to destroy democracy – Atiku’s ex aide, Bwala
Daniel Bwala, an erstwhile aide to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has accused governors of attempting to destroy the nation’s democracy.
DAILY POST recalls that sixteen state governments had filed a suit at the Supreme Court to challenge the legality of the establishment of the country’s anti-graft agency, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
According to Bwala, a former member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, the move signals the governor’s plot to frustrate democracy in the country.
He made this statement on Tuesday’s edition of Channels Television’s The Morning Brief.
He further stated that the governors have not done much in developing their states and have pushed the responsibilities of governance to the Federal Government.
“The governors in Nigeria are making concerted efforts to destroy this democracy.
“I have said when President Tinubu started, when these allocations started moving; when nobody was looking at the responsibility of the federating unit in administering governors, when all pressures were pushed and directed at President Tinubu. I said that we have taken our minds and attention from the fact that this allocation we are talking about – the majority of this allocation – goes to the state. The development is at the state level and local level and nobody cares to look at governors and probe them on their affairs,” he said.
Bwala also accused governors of masterminding some corruption in Nigeria and thus the recent push for the scrapping of the EFCC.
