When President Goodluck's team took over government in Nigeria in May 29, 2007, saved in Nigeria's coffers was a whopping sum of $20 billion (dollars). Today, less than 3.6years into their administration, the money has disappeared - depleted to less than $1.2 billion. It would be recalled that late President Yar'Adua before he kicked the bucket, was too sickly and perpetually absent to have had time to spend any much; so Icheoku asks President Jonathan where is Nigeria's money?
What happened to the content of the safe-box that was entrusted to you or was it a case of the rat being made the custodian of the dry fish? This becomes more disturbing in view of the fact that there is nothing much on the ground to justify and show for the massive profligacy. There is still no motor-able roads in Nigeria, no electricity in Nigeria, no jobs in Nigeria, no security in Nigeria, no healthcare in Nigeria, no social security in Nigeria, no $120 minimum wage for workers in Nigeria and the general despondency in the country has not yet abated. Nigerians, you can now see who you have manning the till:- a drunken-sailor like spender!
But don't you think there is something eerie, weird and unnerving about this guy's seeming timid demeanor; yet behind those aloofness lies a spender extra-ordinaire who is been spending Nigeria's wealth as if he just won the lottery! Jonathan, please show Nigerians invoices and receipts for what you have so far spent their $18.13 billion or thereabout on. Even the much castigated and despised Prince of Darkness of Minna, Babangida, at least has Abuja to show for Nigeria's unaccounted for $12billion dollars, admitted Nigerians still want him to pay it back or be punished for it. So you decide
