There were reports last week that former Minister of Finance, Ngozi
Okonjo-Iweala sent a list of corrupt deals done during the past
administration to President Buhari. Dr Okonjo-Iweala, released a
statement through her media aide, Paul Nwabuikwu, discrediting the
report. The statement below
The recent report by the integrity-challenged website, Saharareporters
and some other media that former Minister of Finance, Dr Ngozi
Okonjo-Iweala has handed over a “dossier of corrupt deals” perpetrated
by the Jonathan administration to President Buhari is completely false
and without foundation.
This sponsored lie is part of the political attack by the pay masters of
Saharareporters against Dr Okonjo-Iweala.
These attacks will continue given that these
individuals are bent on a political and personal vendetta against her.
Why are they angry? It is simply because she tried to bring integrity
and transparency to the management of Nigeria’s public finances which
obviously did not suit their interests.
Saharareporters which has a long history of publishing falsehoods and
distortions against Okonjo-Iweala is a paid tool of these individuals.
But the lies of Saharareporters and its cohorts will never stop
Okonjo-Iweala from loving her country or make her regret serving it, not
once but twice.
As always, we are confident that the truth shall prevail.
Paul C Nwabuikwu
Media Adviser to Dr Okonjo-Iweala
