hehehehe.....President Goodluck Jonathan has again denied allegations that he is sponsoring the Niger Delta Avengers.
The former President said this in a statement by his spokesman, Mr. Ikechukwu Eze, on Thursday.
Some national newspapers had quoted a
presidency source stating that a new report had linked Jonathan to the
militant group and that the Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government had
begun probing the former president.
In his response however, Jonathan said
that reports in the media against him are being sponsored by those who
feel intimidated by his rising profile in Nigeria and abroad.
The ex-President said, “It is sad that
the two publications wore the cloak of deceit from the same misguided
characters that are hell-bent on pulling down the former President,
despite his clear record of diligent service to his country and long
standing commitment to the good of society.
“There is no doubt that there exists
such people who may have scores to settle with the former President but
are now feeling frustrated by the fact that his national and
international profile has continued to rise, despite their recourse to
endless muck-raking character assassination. Such people will stop at
nothing to continue to throw obstacles, albeit futilely, on his path.”
