The PDP unusually yesterday cranked up its Twitter posts splashing accusations against President Muhammadu Buhari, his aides and wife as beneficiaries of dollar allocations from the Godwin Emefiele’s CBN, even alleging that they got the dollars below the official exchange rate of N197.
Garba Shehu was the first to come on the line of fire, accused of collecting $800,000. Lt. General Abdulrahman Dambazau was accused of collecting $6million via a bureau de change with ties to him and Chief of staff, Abba Kyari was also accused of collecting $400,000.
Aisha’s company was accused of collecting $22million at the rate of N185 and then selling it off at N362 same day.
In the last of the accusations, the party claimed that in 7 months, President Buhari has withdrawn $23m forex from CBN for foreign travel expenses and estacode.
Aisha however replied the party Saturday night, threatening legal action.
Mrs Aisha Muhammadu Buhari is not a dealer of forex. She has not and will never be involved in any illegal dealings.

Making false and unfounded allegations without proof just to incite Nigerians on social media is wrong.

This is grounds for a lawsuit on defamation of character.
