A former Minister for Education, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili has said that she could not afford to pay her mother’s rent while serving in government.

This came as she also disclosed that the #BringbackourGirls campaign was an assignment from God.
Ezekwesili said these during a live interview at the ongoing national convention of the Foursquare Gospel Church, at the Foursquare Camp, Ajebo, Ogun State, on Thursday. The former Minister was invited to speak to the congregation on the topic, ‘Integrity’. She told the congregation that integrity comes with its cost, adding that she did not spend from her imprest accounts as Ministers of Solid Minerals and later Education.

So we should give you an award for not being able to pay your mother's rent?
OK since you weren't able to do so your mother must have been homeless while you served the govt isn't?

She didnt finish the story, let me help. She couldnt pay her mother's house rent, so the landlord had no other choice than to envict her mother out of the house. Story for the doGs.

First,
When I was a boy, I had no shoes.
Now this nonsense

Next, one female minister will say;
Before I was minister,
I couldn't afford tampons.

Aaaarh. Politicians disgust me

Nigerians love corrupts individuals and lothe honest public servants - especially the southern and eastern parts of the country. That is why people like Alamiesiegha, Goodluck Jonathan, Ibori, Odili, Peter Obi are revered, while people like Oby Ezekwesili, Nuru Ribadu, Tam David- West, Wole Soyinka, General Buhari, and a few others who served Nigeria without stealing are hated and called names.

Thieves and rogues have become role models for our children. And you will wonder if Nigeria has any future at all.

A Nigeran civil servant without stealing or engaging in dishonest means of making money would not be able to buy and maintain luxury cars, pay expensive school fees for his/her children - home or abroad and pay house rent for other members of their family.

What is the total package for a minister? What is the basic salary plus allowances? A minster who does not create a scheme for defrauding the government or the people cannot afford to build a small house for anybody.

She was appointed as Vice President of the World Bank after serving as a minster of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

I wonder why you TAN hacks cannot get your facts right.

A minister's salary is higher than that of a perm sec and comes with so much allowances?

Was her mother staying in a luxury condo in VI?

This is the season of poor politicians.

The sheer Hipocrisy of these 'new breed' is just Mind Boggling.

What is the monthly take home of a federal Minister (of cabinet rank for that matter)?. Is the rent that upscale that just one months pay could'nt offset it??
Just imagine.

The question you need to find out;
What was the legitimate salary and allowances of a minister during Obasanjo's era?
What were the total expenditure obligations of Mrs Ezekwelisi - Bills, Childrens's school fees and upkeep and family obligations.
What are her own personal needs- Leisure, clothing and jewelries, etc.

And finally, how long was she a minister?

I now see why ministers and public officials need to embezzle as fast as possible when they get to office. The expectations of friends, family and the masses is unrealistic.
