$15m: Patience Jonathan needs to apologise to Nigerians- APC

APC has asked Former First lady, Patience Jonathan to apologize to Nigerians following the recent discovery of $15 million found in five accounts in a company linked to her.

Acting National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, Timi Frank, said this in a statement released over the weekend while reacting to the recent protest by some Niger Delta youths in Port Harcourt, Rivers state calling on EFCC to leave Patience Jonathan alone over the money found in her account. The statement reads in part;





“My candid advice to Mrs. Patience Jonathan is to apologise to Nigerians for the current economic hardship which Mr. Jonathan’s regime could have easily averted instead of sponsoring shameless protests against the government. Anyway, Nigerians are still waiting for the apology. The show of shame called protest at the Port Harcourt office of the EFCC to demand the unfreezing of Mrs. Jonathan’s dollar accounts was uncalled for. And there is nothing wrong if the former first lady explains the source of the $31.4m to anti-corruption agencies. The country is presently going through recession as a result of mismanagement of the economy left behind by Patience Jonathan’s husband led administration which the APC is working hard to correct as soon as possible. It should be made clear that there is nothing wrong for the EFCC to invite Mrs. Patience Jonathan for questioning if the organisation suspects a foul play in the accumulation of such big amount of money. Again, the era of ‘I’m above the law’ is over. This is a change government of accountability where the rule of law is paramount. The number four citizen of this country today, Senate President Bukola Saraki, whose office is prominently recognised by the constitution is facing trial and why not one former first lady that is not recognised by the Nigerian constitution?”the statement read
