Stop donating money like Father Christmas, Atiku tells president Buhari

Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to attend to the needs of Nigerians instead of donating money to other countries.

The former vice president said that Nigeria’s resources should be used for the country and its people and not as donations to others.

He said that the President and his team should be more prudent with national resources.

Atiku, in a statement by its media office in Abuja on Sunday wondered why a country whose leaders had vowed to sell its national assets would still be donating money without considering its implications.

He said that the President recently promised to donate $500,000 to Guinea Bissau, along with other material donations.
