A global magazine, RichestLifestyle.com recently
published that the President of Nigeria,
Goodluck Ebele Jonathan is the 6th wealthiest
African head of State. The magazine claimed that
Goodluck Jonathan, known for his claim of having
no shoes, now had a whooping 100 Million
dollars estimated to his name.
In response, the Nigerian President threatened
as published in the Vanguard of Wednesday 8th
October, that all of us who re-broadcast that
assertion should either retract it or be prepared
to face him in court. Quoted:
“The clear and unacceptable imputation of the
claim that President Jonathan is now worth
about $100 Million is that the President has
corruptly enriched himself while in office which
is certainly not the case. We therefore demand a
retraction and an unreserved apology from
Richest Lifestyle.com and all those who have
reproduced the offensive article. Otherwise, they
should be prepared to substantiate their
libelous claims against the President in courts of
law within and outside Nigeria.”
I hereby categorically provide myself and the
ENDS organization ready to defend all those who
re-broadcast and re-published this information.
We stand ready to face President Goodluck
Jonathan in court and ready to substantiate the
claims against his amassed wealth.
Indeed we assure the President that the only
falsity in the publication is the total amount of
wealth attributed. The amassed wealth of
Nigeria’s President, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan
stands well over the $100m reported; in the
range of several billions of USA dollars.
In contrast to his predecessor, late President
Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, the current President of
Nigeria did not declare his assets before and
since assuming office. We invite him to do so
forthwith.
Being prior to his political service, employed as a
teaching staff at a public University in Nigeria,
we demand a full explanation of his wealth and
how he has amassed such figures as he himself
as presented by his spokesperson, Reuben Abati
admitted never being a businessman.
We would also like him to explain how his wife
got the $13.6 million dollars she lost (that was
seized) in 2006 as she was indicted of by the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,
EFCC.
We also immediately demand a full account of
the missing and now classified as “un accounted
for” $20 billion US dollars oil revenue for a
period of only 18 months factored. Is the
Presidency “misplacing” this money and it is not
in Jonathan’s account? If such huge sums are
missing and not at least in his private accounts,
these monies are well being used to sponsor
terrorism in Nigeria. We would like an account of
the entire sum missing/unaccounted for over his
five years of “leadership,” which estimates put at
over $127 billion dollars.
We also demand the immediate arrest of the
Minister of Petroleum, Diezani Alison-Madueke
for continuing in violation of the law and as
exclusively excused and permitted by the
Nigerian President who continues to stand in the
way of justice, to steal $4 million dollars every
day in the illegal kerosene subsidy scam.
We eagerly await court proceedings on the
“disputed” wealth of Nigeria’s “leader.” While
the Nigerian masses have been buried deeper in
poverty with over 100 million “desolate” of the
nation now living under a dollar a day, it is
unconscionable that a select few cabal and the
top leadership would remain shamelessly
swallowing billions for use on frivolities like
private jet contests…jets which end up being
used to smuggle cash and arms for terror.
We will meet in court.

Ok

He thot we're all dump just like himself. We still remembered after Jonathan became president, hw he mocked declaration of his assets, as against his predecessor (Yar'adua). I don't knw of any other country with a blankheaded as a president no less than Nigeria. Jona has rebranded us with his transformation plan...d best way he knws best.

All I know is that KARMA is watching and smiling

if I knew it was ENDS that was yarning this dust, I wouldn't have bothered opening the link...

I'm usually repulsed by antagonisers with an agenda that prevents them from being not just fair, butlogical as well.

Well,there goes my 2 and a half mins...
