"In all actuality like a lion. You don't need to safeguard it. Give it a chance to lose and it will protect itself"- St. Augustine. Throughout the previous couple of weeks I have been the subject of ridiculous and extraordinary feature stories in different daily papers who have blamed me for being a fraudster and who have asserted that assets were moved into my financial balance by the previous National Security Counselor, Col. Sambo Dasuki and by the Legislative head of the National Bank of Nigeria.
They have additionally guaranteed that I utilized open assets for the Presidential crusade of President Goodluck Jonathan. The endeavor to discolor my name, paint me as a typical criminal and convict me of wrongdoing in the court of general assessment without listening to my side of the story is unimportant, dishonorable and disgusting. It is additionally an impression of the edginess of those that look to draw me down and devastate me just on the grounds that my restriction to this legislature has been persistent. In January 2015 I was named as the Chief of Media and Exposure for the Jonathan/Sambo Presidential Battle Association by President Goodluck Jonathan. The Executive General of the Crusade Association was Congressperson Ahmadu Alli and the Representative Chief Officers were Alhaji Ibrahim Turaki SAN (north) and Senator Dwindle Obi (south). Boss Tony Anenih, an elderstatesman and a standout amongst the most recognized and reverred pioneers in our nation, was the Presidential Consultant to the Battle Association. There were no less than 10 different Chiefs and Directorates separated from me and mine including the Directorate of Assembly which was driven by the regarded Educator Jerry Gana and the Directorate of Organization which was driven by Alhaji Aliyu Modibbo. There were additionally zonal and state Chiefs of the Presidential Crusade Association in all the zones and conditions of the nation. All these names that I have said including the various Executives whose names I have not specified are, similarly as I am mindful, men and ladies of gigantic trustworthiness and great character and they have for the most part been either Pastors of the Government Republic or state Governors at one time or the other in our history. It was a honor to serve nearby such individuals and I have truly no second thoughts about doing as such. However given the way that I was by all account not the only Chief in the Crusade Association and in perspective of the way that every one of the Executives and zonal and state Chiefs got their assets from the same source and record as I did, one marvels why just I and three others ought to be singled out for this unpardonable treatment and these false claims. I stayed noiseless on the issue as of not long ago basically in light of the fact that the claims have not been authoritatively made by the Monetary and Money related Violations Commission (EFCC) or any other person yet the daily papers continue refering to their sources "inside the EFCC" as their premise for these dishonorable charges. Mr. Josef Goebbels, Chancellor Adolf Hitler's Data Priest when Germany was in the ghastly hold of the Nazi party, said that once an untruth is rehashed enough times it gets to be truth to the individuals who are constantly subjected to it. This is particularly so in the event that it goes unchallenged. I can't sit by quietly as my name is dragged through the mud along these lines and I am indicted in the court of general supposition. This has transpired once before and it took me seven years to demonstrate my innocence. It won't transpire once more. Thus I am compelled to take this chance to express the actualities of this matter, put some rumors to rest and anticipate my traducers and informers to make their best course of action. It is without a doubt time to challenge those that are making these affirmations and to kill the falsehood. The way that my financial balance was solidified on the requests of the EFCC two weeks back with no clarification is verification of the way that I am being targetted and that those that try to have their evil path with me are going to jump. Given this it is essential that all the significant certainties are put before the world before I am subjected to the Dasuki treatment, set away indefinately and not given the chance to protect myself before the general population. In the mean time, in their typical way, after this is done the EFCC will then surge the media with all way of lies about my purported outrages which just exist in the fantasy of their creative energy. The claim of misrepresentation and the receipt of open assets from the National.Security Counsels Office and National Bank into my ledger is false. These claims are outlandish, evil, disgraceful and flighty. It is not genuine that ANY cash was paid into my record by or from the National Security Consultant's Office, the National Bank of Nigeria or some other government organization or establishment a year ago or at some other time. As the Executive of Media and Attention of the Jonathan Presidential Battle Association I was approached to present a financial plan for my Directorate by Boss Tony Anenih, the Presidential Counselor to the Presidential Crusade Association and Mrs. Nenadi Usman, the Executive of Account. My group and I arranged the financial backing and it was affirmed. As opposed to gather money, for security reasons and the motivations behind responsibility I was informed by the Chief with respect to Fund to open a financial balance for this reason, which I did. The assets were paid into that record in portions toward the start of a year ago by the Executive of Account and every store was approved and affirmed by the Presidential Guide to the PCO, Boss Tony Anenih. The record that they used to exchange the cash to me was a privately owned business account which was claimed or under the control of the Executive of Money. It was the same organization and record that was utilized to send cash to the various Executives of the PCO and the Zonal Chiefs, State Executives and all our PDP governorship and administrative applicants amid the different crusades. I tried soliciting what the source from the assets in this record were and I was told by the Chief of Money that the assets were sourced from private people and privately owned businesses who selected to backing and store President Jonathan's crusade. She let me know that no cash was paid into her organization from any administration authority, record or office. This she let me know in the prescence of witnesses and I trusted her. I was informed that there was a gathering pledges occasion held by our gathering (PDP) which occurred toward the beginning of January 2015 in which billions of naira was raised particularly for the Presidential crusade. I trusted this to be valid and I had no motivation to uncertainty it. Our assets were given to us by the President who was the pioneer of our gathering through the Executive of Money of the PCO and we were not in a position to ask into the wellsprings of subsidizing of the gathering's effort. In reality, it was not our obligation to do as such. When I got these elucidations and affirmation I consented to get the assets into my ledger and use them for their expressed reason. The exchanges were made and I utilized the assets to do every one of our operations over the span of the presidential crusade. It was a forceful and well-run crusade and we gave our adversaries a hard time to be sure. It was likewise extremely costly and we scarcely had the assets that we truly required however we made a successful showing with regards to with the little we were given. The entire country, including our companions and our adversaries, can manage observer to that and they saw the superb nature of our work. Scarcely anybody can debate this yet some neglect to value the way that such a solid demonstrating costs a considerable measure of cash. Media and attention crusades can't be keep running on goodwill alone: you require money and a lot of it. Over the span of the race and after its decision I submitted point by point records of our costs and confirmation of our work to the Chief of Fund of the PCO for ahead transmission to the Executive General of the PCO and at last President Jonathan himself about how the cash was spent and they were fulfilled. Given the way that these were not open finances the main lawful body that can ask into our use of battle assets is President Goodluck Jonathan who set up the PCO. I was recognized for my endeavors by him and I can gladly say that my Directorate did not owe any individual, administration supplier, association or media equip that gave any administrations to us one kobo at the end of the crusade. Every one of our obligations were paid and commitments met amid and soon after the race. The recommendation that there was any misrepresentation in any of either I connived and planned with others to utilize government cash to run a battle is false and extremely annoying. The recommendation that the cash was some sort of "money bonanza" or "bazaar" as has been accounted for by the main genius government daily paper in the nation today is immature and silly. On the off chance that that had been the situation I question that I would have been sufficiently silly to open a financial balance to get government assets or "bazaar reserves" as this would have been effortlessly followed. In the event that I had anything to stow away or on the off chance that I was doing anything incorrectly I would have demanded gathering money for my operations which would have been far less demanding to disguise. The way that the EFCC accessed my financial balance and spilled points of interest of it to the media including my inflows is a gross infringement of my security as well as unlawful. I was a Clergyman of the Government Republic of Nigeria ten years back and I was a key authority in the Administration thirteen years prior. I had the honor and privilage of serving my nation in these two limits when the father of our country, President Olusegun Obasanjo, was our Leader. Thusly I am acquainted with the workings and significance of responsibility, due ingenuity and due procedure. This is the reason I was exceptionally cautious with how we dealt with our assets at the Directorate and why I designated a prepared common worker who resigned from the common serv
