Buhari Loans: Nigeria now on the auction market - PDP

Kola Ologbondiyan

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has alerted that with the volume of foreign loans being accumulated by President Muhammadu Buhari and his All Progressives Congress (APC), Nigeria as a nation and her people have been placed on the international auction market.

The party said President Buhari’s moves to take a fresh $5.513 billion (N2.1 trillion) loan in addition to an earlier $22.79 billion (N8.5trillion), the size of 2020 budget, without operable repayment plans, will totally compromise the fiscal integrity of the country and open her up for economic annexation by foreign creditors. 

It is worthy to note that the fresh loan request is in addition to N850 billion from the capital market.

A Press Release signed by the national publicity secretary of the major opposition party, Kola Ologbondiyan, notes that it is even more alarming that the Buhari government, in this fiscal year, cannot muster the capacity to harness the huge resources available in the country to generate even half of the sum of its own budget, but has been going cap in hands to shop for foreign loans.

The PDP therefore expressed fears that with this situation, the APC administration is practically driving Nigeria to the brinks while exposing her to the risk of modern day slavery by mortgaging her future to economic appropriation by foreign interests.

Part of the statement reads: "Already the situation has created apprehensions, anxiety and trepidation among the citizens, particularly the youths, who are now scared about their future and the survival of our nation under the APC.

"It is even more distressing that this administration cannot account for the loans it has taken so far. In spite of the deluge of loans, the lives of the ordinary Nigerians, on whose behalf they claim to be 
amassing these debts, have become worse than the APC and Buhari met them in 2015.

"Painfully, even the savings made by previous administrations have been opened up for pillaging by APC leaders and the cabal in the Buhari Presidency

"The PDP calls on Nigerians to look beyond our primordial differences and unite in speaking against this accumulation of debts. It is no longer about political party affiliations, creed, ethnicity, class or age. We all must unite in one voice to save our nation from an imminent collapse.

"Our party holds that rather than mortgaging our nation to foreign interests, President Buhari should immediately cut the size of his government, slash its over bloated budget, clip its luxuries, curb 
unbridled corruption in his administration and make haste to recover the N14 trillion that was stolen by APC leaders under his watch.

"If the N14 trillion stashed away by APC leaders and the cabal is recovered, our nation will not be in need of these humongous foreign loans.

"The PDP also urges the National Assembly to stand on the side of the people and save the nation by immediately using its legislative instrument to check this unbridled appetite for foreign loans," the statement concluded.
