Okonjo-iweala Denies Presenting “Jonathan’s Corruption Document" To Buhari

Former Minister of Finance, Ngozi
Okonjo-Iweala has denied reports
that she has presented a document
containing former President,
Goodluck Jonathan’s alleged corrupt
deals to President Muhammadu
Buhari.
Okonjo-Iweala, speaking through
her media aide, Paul Nwabuikwu,
stated that the story was created to
make her regret working for Nigeria.
This was contained in a statement
released by Nwabuikwu on the ex-
minister’s behalf.
It reads in part:
“Recent reports 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
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.
“But the lies 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.”
