Living up to the hype, Oshiomhole, continues to feed Nigerians with details of financial impropriety and wanton recklessness under the Goodluck Jonathan administration.
But Oshiomhole, a self proclaimed stickler for the truth, essentially called Orji a liar, by saying that the $1bn fund has been depleted to $300m.
Speaking to state house correspondents on Thursday night, the governor said he had evidence to prove his case.
“I reported to the media that the Sovereign Wealth Fund people, in their report to us, which I have in black and white, showed clearly that they have only $300m left in the account.And then, he dropped one for the media.
“We have it in black and white and I can publish it if anybody wants to deny that because it was not submitted to me secretly. It was submitted at a plenary of the committee.
“And then we asked, because I knew that the fund was $1bn, what was done with $700m and they said they have made some investments.”
“We asked them what they invested in and they said the second Niger Bridge and partially in the Kaduna-Abuja rail. That is what they said and I was not alone there.
“We were about five governors and it was a full plenary. But we know that the Kaduna-Abuja rail was funded with Chinese loan, which even Mrs. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala spoke about, when they said the loan from China was not used for Lagos, she said it was for the Kaduna-Abuja rail.”
“You media need to develop your own library and have your record so that when people speak from both sides of their mouths, you can replay back. Because sometimes it hurts me when political leaders and technocrats say one thing in the morning and they change the language the following day”Well spoken, Mr Oshiomhole, very well said.
“Don’t make me the issue, I’m not. The only difference is that there is beauty in standing by the truth and ultimately, it will set you free.”
When he talks, people laugh. In much the same way they laugh at a child's antics. Oshiomhole needs to grow up and accept that all his accomplishments will never amount to one-tenth of Okonjo-Iweala's. Capish?
ReplyDeleteOshiomhole is a rogue who only specialises on attacking those that are far above him even in status. Am just sorry for his life.
