Anti-Corruption Network Reminds President Jonathan He Has
Yet to Fire AGF Mohammed Adoke

The Anti-Corruption Network has reminded
President Goodluck Jonathan of its petition
one week ago in which it chronicled cases of
flagrant abuse of office and incompetence against the
Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, Mohammed Adoke.
In that petition, the group urged Mr. Jonathan, if his anti-
corruption claims are genuine, to fire the Minister.
"We are also aware that for you to make good success of your
efforts, you need a team of people whose integrity, commitment,
proficiency and character as well as their body language must be
visibly above board,," the Anti-Corruption Network said in its
reminder today.
"We are equally conscious that all hands must be on deck to help
realize the purpose of Government, secure democracy and
enhance good Governance. It is in the light of these that we will
continue to work in partnership with your Excellency to ensure a
better Nigeria and desirable qualitative life for our people by
exposing every inappropriate acts, behaviors and corrupt
practices by those entrusted with leadership position in public
offices."
Accusing the government's number one lawyer of massive
corruption, abuse of office and gross incompetence, the group
provided a long litany of cases and issues to back up its
argument for Mr. Adoke to be relieved of his appointment.
Previously, on February 17, 2013, a separate batch of anti-
corruption campaigners, the Anti-Corruption Coalition, called on
Mr. Adoke to resign his office, or be prosecuted for "aiding and
abetting" corruption in Nigeria.
The coalition included: ZERO-CORRUPTION COALITION; CIVIL
SOCIETY LEGISLATIVE ADVOCACY CENTRE (CISLAC); WEST AFRICAN
CIVIL SOCIETY FORUM; CENTRE FOR DEMOCRACY AND
DEVELOPMENT; WOMEN IN NIGERIA; PUBLISH WHAT YOU PAY;
TRANSPARENCY IN NIGERIA; Centre for Information Technology
and Development (CITAD); Centre for the Development of Civil
Society (CDCS); and NATIONAL PROCUREMENT WATCH PLATFORM
(NPWP).
Earlier, in January 2012, iReports-ng.com, an online journal,
accused Mr. Adoke minister of secretly operating four secret
accounts in which he had $40 million US dollars, 5.3 million Great
Britain Pounds and N6.2billion Naira.
President Jonathan, who does not normally take any action
concerning corruption allegations among members of his cabinet,
ignored all of those allegations.
Below is the full text of the petition sent to him about Mr. Adoke
one week ago by the Anti-Corruption Network:
FLAGRANT ABUSE OF POWER VESTED IN THE OFFICE OF THE
ATTORNEY GENERAL BY MR MOHAMMED ADOKE.
