The All Progress Congress (APC) has described the ongoing debate about the Federal Government’s plan to spend $1 billion dollars on fighting insurgency, as totally unnecessary.
The National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Bolaji Abdullahi said this on Monday, during an appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
Mr Abdullahi said the fund also has nothing to do with politics or the party, as insinuated by some members of the opposition.
“In the first place this should not be a conversation for politics, it has nothing to do with politics. It has nothing to do with our party.
“This wouldn’t have been an issue if the PDP did not try to muddle up everything by bringing up that wild and unsubstantiated allegation,” he said.
His comments come days after the Peoples Democratic Party, criticized the move by the ruling party, describing it as alarming.
This followed the approval by governors of the 36 states, to withdraw the sum from the nation’s excess crude account.
