A Special Assistant on Public Communication to former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, Phrank Shaibu, on Monday, alleged that the refusal of the Federal Government to react to recent reports on the return of petrol subsidy showed that public funds had started going into private pockets.
Shaibu, made the allegation in a statement while reacting to reports by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) that the Nigerian government had begun paying petrol subsidy again.
According to media reports monthly subsidy payment was nearly N1 trillion which exceeds the amount being paid monthly by the President Muhammadu Buhari administration.
