Nigeria's Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed has
former president Dr. Goodluck Jonathan will be probed if found
implicated in the arms deal scandal.
The ex-president had mentioned the minister when he addressed a world press conference in Geneva on Wednesday,27th January 2016.
"As for the Information Minister(Lai Muhammed), you quoted, I was not
president in 2006 but in 2010.He said about 15 former governors of
states were corrupt. I believe for the Minister of Information to say
that, he must name the 15 governors. I also believe the list must be
with our security network. The truth will still come out."
Lai Mohammed however replied on Friday at the Obafemi Awolowo University
(OAU) Ile-Ife where he delivered a speech at the Faculty of Arts
Distinguished Guest Lecture with the theme "Nexus between Corruption and
Under-development of the Nigeria State".
"The presidency does not micro-manage the anti-graft agencies and the
presidency does not decide who to be probed at any point in time. The
anti-graft agency will probe him if they feel that he has questions to
answer and they would do their job at the appropriate time.” he said.
