Oshiomole replies Okonjo-Iweala, says 'I don't want to say she knows how to lie with statistics'

Edo state Governor Adams Oshiomhole has replied former Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala who yesterday denied allegations he made that she she spent N2.1 billion from the Excess Crude Account without authorization from members of the National Economic Council.

Speaking on Channels TV this morning, Governor Oshiomole said;
"I think with all due respect to former Minister Okonjo Iweala, she knows how to play around, I don't want to say lie with statistics. I have made this point that she keeps opening only parts of the pages and not the entire book. The logic of transparency is that the honorable minister must publish in full what is accruing to the federation account month to month and what is distributed to who?
What she has been publishing is what went to the Federal government, state government and Local government. What she has never published simultaneously is what is it that accrued during the period out of which this said some was distributed so we can net what is distributed from all that was collected so we can see what was left in the Excess Crude. Now you can see her changing the goal post. Okonjo was a member of the National Economic Council, I was a member and we have asked her and I am on record at asking her , don't give us verbal report on matters of federation account. Give us written report and the power to spend is not vested in Commissioners, she knows that. You look at the constitution and tell me what section gives the commissioners of finance presided over by the Finance Minister all not elected by Nigerians. The membership of NEC is clear-the governors chaired by the Vice President representing the President, the CBN governor and other federal relevant ministries such as the ministry of National Planning. How would she avoid this level of responsibility? When people are abusing governors today nobody is talking about Finance commissioners.Sometimes not even finance Minister. Why will she rather have the conversation with Commissioners of Finance and not the governors? So she has some explanation to do."he said

And he's not mistaken, same Okonjo Iwela that once told us that our economy is healthy brandishing figures, later turned around to tell us government can't settle its debts without borrowing.

This ugly un-intelligent idiiot should just shut his smelly bucal cavity! She's told you the simple truth! The plain truth! The black and white and you're still ranting! You're just annoyed that she publishes to the public how much you receive on a monthly basis! You where the first to harass her why she had to publish the ECA going to states! You where the first to shout wolf on why she had to publish monthly subventions going to states! She's out now and you still can't let her be! Stupid, arrogant, ugly granny like you!

Welldone the Comrade Governor. Your statements has confirmed to me that the Buhari led administration needs Governors like you, El-Rufai, etc and not ministers. They (ministers) are nothing but economic nuisance and unnecessary overheads. What are the permanent staff of those ministries doing anyway??? Can't they work without supervision of the so call ministers???

This APC are still playing opposition. You can't blame the last administration forever. As for monies missing, they are just being mischievous of they are ignorant. Certainly the committee of governors setup to investigate won't be able to find anything, if one of them is this ignorant.

Unknown said...

Comrade Governor you should be very careful the way you and your so call panel address this issue because we are talking about economic of the country as such politic should not be brought into it.

If you have personal issues with the former minister i advice you try and sort it out because that woman cannot and will not spend such amount of money with approval. Haba. stop this witch hunting and do the right thing

THE MAN HIMSELF IS MORE CORRUPT. HE NEEDS TO TELL THE NATION HOW MUCH HE AND HIS WIFE HAVE STASHED AWAY IN OVERSEAS BANK ACCOUNTS. HE HAS OVER $50 MILLION IN HIS OFFSHORE INVESTEMENTS AND PROPERTIES. CORRUPTION CANNOT FIGHT CORRUPTION. BUHARI CAME INTO POWER THROUGH CORRUPT MEANS. THE BRING BACK OUR GIRLS SCAM. THE BOKO HARAM THEY SPONSORED. THE AMERICAN ORGANISATIONS THAT SPONSORED BUHARI AND APC. IF THAT IS NOT CORRUPTION, TELL ME WHAT IS CORRUPTION. IF THAT UGLY SHORT AND EVIL MAN HAS ANY EVIDENCE WHY DONT HE TAKE THE WOMAN TO COURT? WILL THE WITCH HUNT? WHY THE TRIAL BY MEDIA? WHY TARNISH THE WOMAN'S NAME? WHAT IF IT TURNS OUT THAT THAT HIRRIBLE MAN WAS LYING, CAN HE REPAIR THE DAMAGE HE IS CAUSING TO THE WOMAN'S REPUTATION? WHY DONT HE, BUHARI AND APC DO THIS IN A PROPER AND CIVILISED MANNER, INSTEAD OF BEING BARBARRIC AND ENGAGING IN CAPAIGN OF CALUMNY AGAINST THEIR POLITICAL OPPONENTS. VERY SOON, NIGERIAN WILL WISE UP AND REALISED THAT THEY WERE DECEIVED BY BUHARI AND APC. BUHARI AND APC HAVE NOTHING TO OFFER NIGERIANS. BUHARI SCAMMED HIS WAY INTO POWER. THE ONLY CHANGE HAPPENING IS IN BUHARI'S BANK ACCOUNT, HIS VILLAGE, HIS FAMILY, HIS COWS, HIS NEW RETIREMENT HOME (ASO ROCK), AND HIS NEW PRIVATE JETS (PAID FOR BY ALL OF YOU, 200 MUMUS IN NIGERIA).

SAI AUTHORITY STEALLING !!!
SAI FRAUD !!!
SAI BUHARI !!!
CHAIRMAN, FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF SCAM, DECEPTION, CORRUPTION, TYRANNY & IMPUNITY.

Nobody lies with statistics because numbers don't lie , they don't just add up if they are wrong . Number is the closest we have to God .

The last time I checked Oshomoile has no certification in Economics, not to talk of Statistics. Moreover he is not learned to argue with world acclaimed economist. It is a case of a prophetess has no honour in her home country.

Look at this so called 'comrade' that forgot he is a comrade in the government house. U governors are amongst the problems we have in Nigeria. I could remember that u guys practically forced gej to share the savings in the excess crude account and yet have nothing to show for it. Most of you are owing your workers and there are no tangible projects commensurate with the allocation you get to show for it. You are now carrying out a campaign of calumny against the woman because he started publishing the amount of money u guys receive. The allocation these cabals get every month as security vote is enough to carry out very obvious developmental projects in their various state.
Meanwhile, this was the 'comrade' that invited a common big brother star, Dilish, to Edo state and wasted the scarce resources of the state on her to the tune of $30k. He has now become so rich that he could afford to go to another country and marry a trophy wife. Out of all the governors, he's the one I detest with passion. Others are not pretenders like him, some of them made money already before they became governors. But the so called comrade spent all his life prior to becoming governor in the NLC. Tell me, where did he get all the money that has made him vastly rich? Meanwhile, he goes about deceiving gullible nigerians with his ubiquitous khaki. Pathetic!

These baseless accusations are really beginning to irritate. Same goes for postings by some numbskulls on this page who delight in spewing rubbish & blighting individuals just because they have access to keyboards.
Either support your accusations with verifiable/incontrovertible evidence or for ever hold your peace. I would advise Gov. Oshiomohle to start behaving gubernatorial & less like he is streets. With due respect, Sir, Government is serious business, not a circus.

You ar the chief criminal. After all it takes a criminal to know one. Even though orbits only an upright person like OkonjoIweala that will be attacked by criminals like governors and their foot soldiers. Shame on all of you.
