An All Progressive Congress (APC) chieftain and erstwhile director (election planning) of the Muhammadu Buhari Campaign Organization, Dr. Theodore Ekechi yesterday, lambasted former president, Mr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan for presenting bogus report about the nation to President Muhammadu Buhari.
He argued that the nation’s economy was already in a state of abyss before President Muhammadu Buhari took over the affairs of the nation from his predecessor.
He stated most of the campaign promises made to Nigerians by Buhari prior to his election were purely on the basis of report from the Federal Ministry of Finance stating that the inaccurate report received by the president from the Jonathan administration was not the actual facts on ground.
Ekechi who is a former Imo State Commissioner for Information and Strategy, state thiss while fielding questions from newsmen at his country home, Umuoye in the Ngor Okpala Local Government Area during which he identified corruption as the bone of the nation’s economy.
He dismissed insinuations in some quarters that President Muhammadu Buhari is being selective in his anti-corruption war against former public officeholders insisting that those with unassailable, overwhelming evidence of having soiled their hands while in office are only those being compelled to face the music.
