Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, the immediate past Finance Minister has handed
President Muhammadu Buhari a list of corrupt deals approved by Goodluck
Jonathan, SaharaReporters has reported.
The online news medium
claimed that Okonjo-Iweala has been quietly cooperating with Buhari’s
administration. “In an attempt to curry favor with the new government,
Mrs. Okonjo-Iweala recently directed officials of her polling agency,
NOI Polls, to give President Buhari a 70 per cent approval rating among Nigerians,” SaharaReporters said.
“The polling results were simply cooked up,” a professional pollster
told US-based news platform, noting that, “prior to the 2015 general
elections, the former minister’s fake polling organization kept
repeating that Mr. Jonathan approval rating was up even as his political fortune plummeted.”
SaharaReporters also learned that former Minister of Petroleum
Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, is also actively cooperating with the
Buhari administration. “Mrs. Alison-Madueke had struck a deal with the
new government to submit a document to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) exposing her collaborators at the NNPC.
“The former Petroleum minister, who was one of the closest cabinet
members to Mr. Jonathan—and the mastermind of numerous money laundering
deals on behalf of the former president—currently shuttles between the
United Kingdom and Switzerland. A source close to Mrs. Alison-Madueke
said the former minister was receiving treatment in the UK related to
breast cancer,” SaharaReporters claimed.
It would be recalled that SaharaReporters reported that several sources
in Abuja, including aides of Buhari, said that former President,
Goodluck Jonathan sent Emeka Anyaoku, former Commonwealth Secretary
General as an emissary to Buhari.
One of our sources said Jonathan moved quickly to send powerful
intercessors to the Presidency after the Buhari administration began to
question massive last-minute withdrawals and disappearance of more than
$20 billion in government funds orchestrated by former President
Jonathan as well as his closest ministers and aides.
One source close to Anyaoku’s desperate mission to President Buhari
revealed that he urged the new president to remember that Jonathan
voluntarily decided not to contest the results of the March 28, 2015
presidential election, won by Mr. Buhari, on the understanding that he
and his administration would not be subjected to a probe.
