Goodluck Jonathan administrations over the $16 billion spent on power
projects that in no way improved power supply in Nigeria.
Speaking at the APC rally in Yenagoa, Bayelsa state on Tuesday,
February 12th, President Buhari pledged that his administration will go
after those that mismanaged the money meant for the development of the
sector.
Recall that in 2018, President Buhari while speaking in the state
house, said those that mismanaged funds meant for the power sector from
1999-2017, had questions to answer.
Speaking about the power sector at the presidential rally, President Buhari said
“You know we are building roads. The railway was virtually killed. We
are rebuilding it and there was no power, we are bringing power
back. The previous government mentioned on their own that they spent 16
billion American dollars for power. But you are better witnesses than
myself. Where is the power? Where is the money? We will follow them and
eventually God willing we will get them and we will get our money
back”.
