Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir el-Rufai has said that the ideology of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is looting the treasury.
The vocal governor made this known at the inauguration of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Campaign Council on Tuesday.
He added that the 2019 election would be a contest between thieves and honest people, calling on Kaduna people not to bring back looters into the Sir Kashim Ibrahim Government House.
El-Rufai accused the PDP of renting crowd from nearby Niger Republic to give its presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar a semblance of popularity.
He said, “The 2019 general election is a poll between trustworthy people and thieves, between patriotic leaders and those who went to Abuja to loot our treasury.
“So we have to stand up and show them that Kaduna is not a state that will allow them cheat the people and the masses.
“What we have done in Kaduna State in the last three years has shown that APC, as a party, is the one that loves the masses and assists the masses, not a party that will take public funds and share among the rich. That is why we want you people to go out and tell the people to vote President Muhammadu Buhari again.
“Thieves have ganged-up against President Buhari. Yesterday (Monday) they were in Sokoto, and they rented a crowd from Niger Republic, because Sokoto people refused to come out.”
