Exclusive report, indicates that former President, Goodluck Jonathan, has decided to watch from afar, the unfolding dramatic episode of the claims made by the Economic And Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, that $43 million and some other huge sums, were recovered from an Ikoyi apartment.
A close Associate to the former President, highlighted that Jonathan may not succumb to pressure to speak on the huge amount of money recovered from the Ikoyi apartment, despite mounting calls from some quarters.
The President’s Associate, maintained that the standard thing to do, was to request concerned Intelligence Chiefs to offer professional clarifications when necessary.
He said: “Nigerians should be careful not to let their emotions get the better of them, in order not to destroy the integrity of the nation’s respected institutions, especially the Office of the President.
“From a section of the media, we have seen a baseless desperation to link the former President with the money, generate negative headlines, and swing public opinion, in line with preconceived objectives.“It is worrying the way the media is sensationalising the issue of the funds recovered in a Lagos flat, with reference to the immediate past President, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan.
“From that quarter also, is a strident and dramatized call for ex-President Jonathan, to openly discuss details of security approvals and operations, even when a Presidential Panel is already investigating the matter.
“There is nowhere in the world, where former or serving Presidents, are challenged daily to speak on covert activities of elite intelligence agencies, especially where concerned Intelligence Chiefs are on hand to offer professional clarifications.”
He added that, while investigations are on-going: “those sold on spinning imaginary tales, have been vainly striving to sell to the public, an orchestrated narrative that the fund which we are told belong to the NIA, was set aside for the 2015 general election.”
“Obviously, this unsubstantiated calculation holds no water, because it does not make sense to claim that the NIA Chiefs, who are now under a new boss, would still be warehousing money for the 2015 polls, long after the elections, and two years after the former President has handed over to his successor.
“We should not forget that former President Jonathan stayed on as President, for two months after the 2015 Presidential election, before handing over power to his successor, President Muhammadu Buhari, on May 29, 2015.
“Have the Authors of this false narrative, wondered why Jonathan did not use the opportunity of those last days in office to help himself to the recovered money, if indeed it was stashed on his orders, as is now being strangely claimed in some quarters?
“As Nigerians who wish the best for our dear country, it behooves all of us to remain truly committed to the efforts towards rebuilding the nation.
“Those who pour all their energies into spreading falsehood and promoting unhelpful lynch plots, are only hurting the process,” Jonathan’s Associate stressed.
When contacted, Jonathan’s Spokesman, Ikechukwu Eze, confirmed that the ex-President has just returned from a foreign trip.
Eze however, refused to make any comments on the story, stressing that he was yet to meet and discuss with his boss, since his return.
