'Buhari must prosecute Jonathan and his wife'
Former President Goodluck Jonathan’s kinsman and factional Chairman, All Progressives Congress, Chief Perekeme Kpodo, has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to prosecute Jonathan and his wife, Patience.
Kpodo, who made the call at a news conference in Yenagoa on Wednesday, said the former President, his wife and known associates should be prosecuted for the alleged looting of resources of the country and other associated crimes.
Kpodo, who was the former Interim Chairman of the New Peoples Democratic Party, said the acceptance of defectors to the APC by the Tiwei Orunimighe-led executive committee was an illegal action.
He claimed it was an action to provide cover for band of corrupt politicians and fake protection against prosecution by Buhari.
He said the APC stance against corrupt associates of the last administration of Jonathan was well known and must be prosecuted.
Kpodo said, “As a decent state executive, we consider the attempt to make the APC a dumping ground unacceptable and vexatious.
“APC in the state will not allow the party to become a dumping ground for desperate looters and thieves in need of protection from prosecution.
“We call on President Muhammadu Buhari to order a detailed investigation into the acts of fraud and embezzlement by these defectors and their associates.
“We support the moves by Buhari for the prosecution of former President Goodluck Jonathan, his wife, Patience Jonathan and his known associates for the looting and associated crimes committed against the state.”
The factional chairman asked every aspiring defector to obtain clearance at the ward through to the state level of the party.
He said defectors must show clear record of performance from the parent party before official presentation to the loyalists and progressive supporters of the APC.
Kpodo said the APC would soon release a timetable of events of the party to receive its teeming supporters, defectors and the processes for primary election of the party.
