Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Nigeria’s former Finance Minister, has stated that Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo state is suffering numerical diarrhea after he alleged that she took $1billion to fund the re-election bid of former president Goodluck Jonathan.SEE THE REPORT HERE
In statement issued by Paul C Nwabuikwu, media adviser Okonjo-Iweala, he described Oshiomhole’s accusations as “another false, baseless allegation against Okonjo-Iweala by Oshiomhole.
“The allegation by Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State that former Minister of Finance Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala spent $1 billion out of the Excess Crude Account to fund the re-election bid of former President Jonathan is the kind of ludicrously false statement that has unfortunately become a trademark of the Governor in his public campaign of falsehood against Dr Okonjo-Iweala,” the statement said.
“The statement is just another example of the numerical diarrhea that seems to have afflicted His Excellency in recent times in his effort to damage the reputation of the former Minister.
“He has, within the last few months, asked Dr Okonjo-Iweala to explain all kinds of totally wild and unsubstantiated figures, ranging from $30 billion, $20 billion, $2.1 billion, N720 billion and now $1 billion.”
Okonjo-Iweala then stated that Oshiomhole’s accusations totally lack any credibility. ” Governor Oshiomhole’s published comments also contain other falsehoods. For instance, he quoted Dr Okonjo-Iweala as saying that she and the Finance Commissioners of the 36 states approved the spending of $2.1 billion out of the Excess Crude Account, adding that the Commissioners had disowned the statement. This is also a complete distortion.
“Dr Okonjo-Iweala never said the Federation Accounts Allocation Committee (FAAC) approved spending out of the ECA. Rather as the Commissioners themselves stated, the former Minister of State Finance informed them that former President Jonathan approved the expenditure to end the debilitating fuel queues across the country.
“As Nigerians know, the Finance Ministry under Okonjo-Iweala regularly published details of revenue allocations from the ECA in national media. So Oshiomhole’s tortured “calculations” based on his “four figure tables” are mere political numbers conjured to achieve a political purpose. Nigerians can see through the elaborate antics.
“Governor Oshiomhole’s latest statement, like earlier ones, labours to give the impression that the entire FAAC process which involves the Federal Government and the 36 states of the Federation is a personal monopoly of Dr Okonjo-Iweala.
“This is, of course not true. FAAC is a long standing national platform for allocating revenues chaired by the Minister of State Finance. The governor’s insistence on pushing this clearly fictional narrative underscores his desperation.
“It is instructive that Governor Oshiomhole is a key member of the committee set up by the National Economic Council to investigate the ECA spending. His continuing attacks against Dr Okonjo-Iweala seem to suggest that he has lost confidence in this platform which he deployed to make some of his initial false and baseless allegations. The Governor does not seem to appreciate that he is undermining the very credibility of the committee.
“Once again, we ask: why are Oshiomhole and his cohorts so ready to sacrifice truth, precedent and decency in this political witch hunt against Dr Okonjo-Iweala? We are confident that they will fail because truth will triumph,” the statement read.

ReplyDeleteThe end will justify...
Where's d foul language or u dunno d definition of foul language?? Aboki.
DeleteSorry o make i laugh small cos as i just saw "Numerical Diarrhoea" i just burst into laughter
ReplyDeleteHahahahahahahaahahahahaha
Lolll. But madame, it would behoove u to publish "empirical evidences" to substantiate your counter claim, instead of the inglorious names calling which doesn't acquit u of the "charges".
DeleteWhat did Oshiomole publish?
DeleteIf push comes to shove, can Oshio stand this woman when it comes to doling out figures?
Oshiomole made a wide, vague claim.
Maybe they have the feeling she misapprioprated funds and can't prove it. If they can, we have law courts.
This press system APC has brought into Nigeria will ruin governance. Something is boiling on fire and before its done, you're running off to the press to mouth off! Why can't Oshio and his people do the needful instead of this calumny?
She's a public figure and they know the best way to punch her without prosecuting her is to cast a shadow of doubt to her image to ruin her international career and it's painful when it's coming from semi-literates as far as the financial world is concerned. They should get proper auditors to audit the accounts and dealings of the ministry, all Iweala's reports and put their findings in a confidential file and send to the EFCC. When they decide to prosecute her, she will answer with facts in the court. Long as these things are brought before the press, can you call them charges? Or mere mouthing off? Btw, he once called her a liar who manipulates figures. Isn't that inglorious too? How easy is it not to chip in sarcasm or snide comments in the face of accusation.
I detest this 'press governance' Nigerians are adopting. I feel they are just playing with illiterate and semi-literate Nigerians. Playing to the gallery.
Bwahahaha!! Oshomole is suffering from numerical diarrhea lmao. English ntorrr
ReplyDeleteDear Adams,
ReplyDeleteHeres my second "love lerrer" to you.
Please respond lovingly to my earlier request .
Educate us on Comrade Rauf Aregbesolas "a-mmma-zing" balanced governance in Osun State

Hop a chopper to Osun State already ! We look forward to your press conference on this issue with BREATHLESS ANTICIPATION.

Lolll u are on his neck I can see. Saw ur earlier comment on the previous post. I tried to help him answer ur queries though. Lol
DeleteOh and BTW, I also lost respect for this Oshimole when he became a governor and stopped speaking for the people unlike his days as an "activist". His tempo and focus dwindled and he became self serving. Made me conclude that hunger was his compelling force abi-initio.
DeleteLet wait and see who will need medical attention among the two of you..

Numerical diarrhoea lolzz kikikikik hahahaha buhahah,
ReplyDeleteOshiomole is an illiterate, corrupt, fool. The go and die stuff that he exhibited the other day is the real Oshiomole. He is arrogant and self centered. When he was the Vice President and President of NLC, this man ate money like it's going out of fashion. Pascal Bafyau was a nice gentleman compared to this ugly baboon. So many people in Edo state, even his family disliked him. He fucks anything fuckable, married women o, singles o, anything in skirt. His first wife was a gentle soul, she endured till her last days, God bless her soul. So he should get the hell out. He should take NOI to court if he's so certain she used the money for Jonas campaign. Idiot.

ReplyDeletePlease check my blog out.
He not only has numerical diarrhoea, doctors probably have not found a name for that man's mouth odour. I wonder how he kisses his wife. Does he use pipe? He has a way of making unsubstantiated allegations. During the 2012 governorship allegation he thought he was going to lose to PDP, so he came out on television and started accusing INEC chairman and staff of having rigged the election in favour of PDP. He lied with figures and was copiously quoting how much each INEC person received, when and where the money exchanged hands. It was later discovered the fabricated all the figures from his bedroom in Edo government house. This time around he wants to play the good guy for Buhari and the best way is to accuse Iweala without solid facts. Oshio Baba, go rest, this your NLC tactics no dey work again. We recall how as NLC president, he used to curse and abuse government and their policies in the day and frolic and party with the same government at night. Iweala please don't mind Nigeria's randiest governor. E fit dey eye your behind.
