The camp of former President
Goodluck Jonathan has lambasted former Lagos governor, Bola Tinubu, over his
verbal attack on the Jonathan administration.
A statement by Jonathan’s former
special assistant on New Media, Reno Omokri, drew Tinubu’s attention to the
recent happenings in the Buhari government, noting that the current speed of
corruption was faster that Jamaican sprinter, Usain Bolt.
Tinubu on Thursday attacked the
former PDP government at a book presentation held at the State House Conference
Center, Abuja.
“The prior government used the
public treasury as a private hedge fund or a charity that limited its giving
only to themselves.
“So much money grew feet and ran
away faster than Usain Bolt ever could. That which could have been spent on
national development was squandered in ways that would cause the devil to
blush.
“Boko Haram would have taken more
territory and more lives would have been lost to insurgency if Jonathan had
remained in power,” he said.
However, Omokri disagreed with
the APC national leader, recalling that Jonathan received good ratings on
anti-corruption from renowned internal bodies.
“It is a fact that Nigeria made
her most improvement in Transparency International‘s annual Corruption
Perception Index In 2014 under President Jonathan when we moved from 144 to 136
representing an improvement of 8 points.
“Transparency International
observed the Jonathan administration’s fight against the corruption in
Nigeria’s fertilizer procurement regime, the use of technology to remove 50,000
Federal ghost workers and the speed at which the then President fired ministers
accused of corruption or conflict of interests.
“From that time till today,
Nigeria has not made any improvements and has remained at 136 where Jonathan
left us because Transparency International deals with facts, not opinions or
media trial.
“Other than media sensationalism,
there have been no convictions of financial misappropriation stemming from the
Jonathan era.
“However, we do know that it is a
fact that the allegedly corrupt pension thief, Abdulrasheed Maina, was
dismissed and declared wanted by the Jonathan administration.
“We also now know that it is a
fact that the present Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, met
with Maina in Dubai. We know that Maina’s family revealed in a press conference
that Maina was invited back to Nigeria by the present government. It is also a
fact that Maina was recalled, reinstated and given double promotion by the
current administration.
“Moreover, we know from the Head
of Service’s leaked memo that President Muhammadu Buhari was aware of this
entire saga.
“Perhaps Asiwaju Bola Tinubu
mistook the Usain Bolt speed at which Maina was smuggled back into the country
and reinstated for the unproven claims of corruption under Jonathan.
“We also know that it is a fact
that $25 billion worth of contracts were awarded at the NNPC without due
process. It is also a fact that this is the highest ever such amount involved
in Nigeria’s history. Again, perhaps it is this amount that Tinubu meant when
he said “So much money grew feet and ran away faster than Usain Bolt ever
could”. Or perhaps he was referring to Babachir Lawal.
“Nigerians should note that on
the 7th of March 2014, then President Jonathan said “I am loyal to Nigeria’s
economy. I don’t have accounts or property abroad.” Till date, nobody has been
able to contradict that statement because it is true. Can Bola Tinubu or
anybody in the APC leadership make a similar claim?
“On the issue of Boko Haram and
terrorism, it is a fact that there is only one global body recognized to
monitor terrorism and that is the Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP) which
releases the annual Global Terrorism Index.
“It is a fact that between 2013
and 2014, Nigeria under President Jonathan was unfortunately listed as the
fourth most terrorized nation in the world.
“However, in the latest Global
Terrorism Index released yesterday (November 15, 2017) by the Institute for
Economics and Peace, Nigeria has deteriorated from where Jonathan left it and
is now the third most terrorized nation.
“In 2015, President Jonathan ensured
that elections held in every local government in Borno states, but last month,
the United Nations declared that they could no longer operate in certain local
governments of Borno state. So who is fooling who?
“So if according to Transparency
International, Nigeria was less corrupt under Jonathan than it is today and
according to the Institute for Economics and Peace, Nigeria is more terrorized
today than it was under Jonathan, it becomes clear that Bola Tinubu has no
factual basis to make the claims he made,” he said.
