"On Saturday morning, just a day after the attack, a very close associate of President Jonathan called me and explained to me that there had been a bombing in Nigeria and that President Jonathan wanted me to reach out to the group, MEND, and get them to retract the earlier statement they had issued claiming the attacks. They wanted to blame the attacks on northerners who are trying to fight against him [Jonathan] to come back as president and if this was done, I was not going to have any problems with the South African government." Okah said in an interview with Al Jazeera on Tuesday conducted by telephone from the South Africa prison where he is being held on terrorism charges.
The presidency have denied the politically damaging, and potentially incriminating allegation, saying it was all made up by the militant leader.
Oh dear, what is going on in our country...?
if he's right then Jonathan is no good then.
ReplyDeleteThe Nigerian political arena is a good example of confusion, treachery, backstabbing, mudslinging, and corruption.Millions of Nigerians have adapted to the lifestyle of corruption. Nigerians are the greatest enemy of Nigeria, and unless Nigerians change, Nigeria will never change.
