This is in addition to apprehensions on why he was caught in the public space while allegedly ferrying stolen currencies for persons said to be close to the Presidency.

The party says the Muhammadu Buhari Presidency must also speak out on this huge scandal and allegations, that Danu has been in the business of connecting the close relations of the President with many oil contractors for alleged underhand deals through which billions of naira get frittered.

The PDP also notes that, this is beside allegations of him being in a scandalous contracts running into billions of naira from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency, among other government agencies.

The party also cautions the Buhari Presidency to perish the thoughts of concealing this scandal as it is already in the public domain with Nigerians demanding for investigations.

Therefore, the party charges the Buhari Presidency to immediately order an open investigation into the matter and expose those in this scandalous racket.

Saying that, Nigerians can now further see how the Buhari Presidency stinks. Our party therefore insists that for a government that always orchestrates claims of integrity and zero tolerance for corruption, it is behoves on the Presidency to come clean as well as order an investigation into this huge allegation.
