Edo State Governor Comrade Adams Oshiomole, has dismissed the claim by former Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala that she did not spent N2.1 billion from the Excess Crude Account without authorization from members of the National Economic Council.
In an short interview with Channels Television Wednesday morning Oshiomhole reject the former minister’s claim saying its not true.
“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?” Oshiomole stated.
