Senator Magnus Ngei
Abe has dismissed claims that President Muhammadu Buhari is investigating the People’s Democratic Party’s presidential campaign which the party lost to the All Progressive Congress (APC)in last year’s general elections.
Abe, who represented the Rivers South East Senatorial zone in the 7th National Assembly gave the indication on his facebook on Tuesday explained that the Federal Government was rather investigating the mismanagement of funds approved for the procurement of arms for prosecution of the war against insurgency in the North East.
The former lawmaker who had his prayer granted by the  Appeal Court  for  a re-run election in the senatorial district said the issues are unrelated, explaining that the PDP’s presidential campaign is involved in the investigation to the extent that it is involved in the funds meant for the arms purchase.
According to him,’’ nobody is asking about the funding for TAN, SouthWest Oba’s, First Lady’s campaign, 100million signatures for GEJ, etc etc.  There is no investigation of the PDP presidential campaign fund, but there is an investigation into the management of funds approved for the prosecution of the war against insurgents in the NorthEast.
“The president has a duty to find out about the funds for the war effort. That is the investigation currently ongoing, despite several petitions from leaders of the PDP, including that of PDP office staff demanding an investigation of their campaign, no government agency is investigating PDP’s campaign funds to the best of my knowledge’’, he said
