Atiku was asked to defend the allegation made by Sowore that as vice president under ex-president Obasanjo, $16billion dollars was released for addressing electricity problems.
Sowore said, “I watched a video clip of your interview this morning wherein you were asked about my view on power scam under your regime, you failed to address how $16b was used to procure darkness instead you claimed “he doesn’t even know,” well these are some things I know.”
Sowore further slammed the former vice president for changing different political parties in the course of his political life.
He said, “You’ve done your rounds from SDP- UNCP- PDP- ACN-PDP- APC back to PDP, you have never done anything for the Nigerian people, you’ve only taken care of your needs and those that benefit your family, cronies, and friends. It is time to quit and let Nigeria experience electricity!”
“My question again, is this; what happened to the $16billion dollars released for electricity during your tenure as Vice President?” Sowore asked.
