Minister of Information, Mr Labaran Maku who addressed a press conference in Abuja on Sunday described Ezekwesili’s allegation as “outlandish and clearly fictitious.”
Maku also said the damning verdict passed on the education sector by Mrs Ezekwesili was a self-indictment, as she presided over the sector for 10 months without making any positive impact on it.
Also writing on twitter on Sunday in messages prefaced with the declaration, “Nothing but Accountability”, Ezekwesili said: “In 2007, the incoming Administration was handed $45Billion in Foreign Reserve plus $22Billion.
Nothing but accountability: Let Mr. Maku go further. As a citizen all I want to know is the Mathematics of the ECA and the Foreign Reserve. Nothing but accountability: I demanded accountability and that’s all a citizen asks of government. I will not stop asking for accountability.”

Gbaaammm, oya..."nothing but accountability" says Dr Obiageli Ezekwesili. All she challenged the present administration for is simple; " public debate of facts regarding 2007 ECA ( worth N10.6TR0) foreign reserve and last five and half year revenue".Maku`s statement is rather "outlandish and fictitious" and the government reaction to the challenge "self-indictment".All that is expected from a responsible government confronted with this kind of allegation is to come clean with facts and figures. Nigerian want to know the truth.

Deletemrs obiageli Ezekwesili has indeed broken the bond of quietness in masses. I'm solidly behind her in dis accountability issue na l every well fed nigerian join her cos it is our right even though she might nt be hundred percent gud. Then maku shud get ready for public debate nd defence if he is right, as it is always said Clear conscience fears no accusation.

"Nothing but Accountability." I guess Jonathan and his acolytes need a cryptanalyst to decipher that three word phrase.
