PDP supporters please prove me wrong!
By May 29 1999, we had 23 PDP governors, 6 AD, and 7 APP. 8 years after, this is their story:

AD / AC – 6 governors
None has ever been taken to court for treasury looting.NOTE:- Tinubu of Lagos was dragged to Code of Conduct Tribunal for having foreign accounts while in power against government policy of zero foreign account for public officials. He was found not guilty because he had the accounts before his election to the office of governor. Case dismissed.
APP/ANPP – 7 governors
- Attahiru Baffarawa – APP Sokoto – In court for looting (he is now in a PDP member)
- Prince Abubakar Audu – ANPP Kogi – In court for looting.
You may add the two ex-national chairmen of PDP, Ahmadu Ali and Bamanga Tukukur whose sons are facing multi-billion naira oil subsidy fraud charges. It’s sad some senseless Nigeria still believe we do not need a change from this same PDP while they claim they can’t see the difference btw APC n PDP. The difference btw them is like daylight to darkness. If you chose not to see may you remain blinded for eternity.
