The deal was facilitated by Center for Global Development (http://www.cgdev.org): Where We Came From And: The second element obtaining IDA only status was needed solely for the purpose of meeting the Paris Club requirement for Naples terms or other deep discount debt relief. With the creative help of CGD, Nigeria achieved the change to IDA - only status in mid 2005, which helped to lay the ground work for another key element, also with the help of CGD – a discounted buy-back. |

So her company should render services to Nigeria free of charge just because she was a minister abi? BTW from what I saw there, she is not even a founding member of the organisation and there are more than 25 members in the Board of directors. Then when the services are rendered free of charge she would pay the others from her private salary abi? Clap for yourself. N/B: If she's later found guilty of corrupt practices she should be prosecuted sha 6 Likes |

My annoyance is the way this woman gives the impression she's doing Nigerians a Favour by being Finance Minister! Emeka Anyaoku has played on the Global Stage yet He's humble Philip Emeagwali is also very humble But dis Ngozi and Diezani women are so arrogant you'd think they are the ONLY people capable of doing the job! 8 Likes |

NOI is no change agent! She is just like every other politician in Gej's cabinet. A woman that adviced Nigeria to pay off all her debt under obj, presided over the saving of over 64b usd in foreign reserve , over 22b usd in excess crude accout, same woman is presiding over the aggressive accumulation of debt, violent depletion of both excess crude and foreign reserve and giving out scandalous import waivers that she dared not touch with a long pole under obj! So much for world bank vp! Back in new york I can bet her office is not as nice as her secretary's office in abuja. Fg spent 1.2b naira on her maitama residence, plus she will not get upto a tenth of the aides hanging around her in Naija in new york. So pls she is doing no body no favour. 4 Likes |

She was redeployed to another ministry and remains on record the first Minister to resign her appointment. OBJ redeployed her when it became obvious she will not play ball by agreeing to cover the shaddy withdrawals he made for his 3rd. term and transition elections. |

If Mrs. Okonjo-Iweala did not disclose her relationship with the company that brokered the deal to the government beforehand, then she’s guilty of corruption and she knows it! Whenever you’re facilitating a deal on behalf of the government or a company and you’re in a position to influence the deal, you have to disclose your relationship upfront to management. How does one know after the fact that she didn’t broker and stack the deal in her favor? I’m highly disappointed if true because she should have known better! Nigeria is a country where nothing is ever what it seems! 4 Likes |

Magic Bishop: [size=18pt]Liars!Nigerians are very myopic with their views,both Obj and Noi did not do us any favor,they can't claim the credit for debt relief, That credit goes to European activists,there was massive demonstration on the street of Europe especially Oslo and Brussels,the people there demonstrated against the rich European and American countries to write off the debt of poor African countries for them to use the funds to develop their country, One of the European government was voted out,this jolted others to succumb and there was debt forgiveness to some African countries expect Nigeria which then was under sanctions. With the return if democracy they offered debt reduction rather than debt forgiveness since Nigeria can afford it. We do our selves a lot of dis service when we give credit to those that don't deserve it. We credit some black people for slavery,but we forget Wilberforce,the British army and the blacks in the USA forgot the men who died in the American civil war all because slavery must stop. Here we credit some people for our independence not knowing that after the second world war,France and the British empire was too broke to maintain colonies and protectorates,they had no choice but to give us independent. So please Obj and Noi did not do us a favour. BTW if she followed due process and her firm wasthe best to handle it,there is nothing wrong. But paying $3billion commission for a transaction of $36 billion is ludicrous. 1 Like |

Cgd is the global economic consulting firm. Look at the board of directors. Only problem for some is that Ngozi works with the likes of Larry Summers and Smita Singh. Why not attack the company or better still say other ways the debt burden could have been relived. BTW we have gone through this false allegation before to no avail. I guess it is time to k brush it updated 1 Like |

she has borrowed that paid debt again probably for another kick back. Can believe we will be servicing debts with 700billion next year. |
Re: Revealed: Okonjo Iweala Got Kick-backs Over Paris Club Debt Deal by Kx: 4:59pm On Dec 24, 2013 |
As per whether she used her position as finance minister to corner juicy $2milliin dollar commission to a company she was an active sitting board member, I have no comment as the comment I would ordinarily have had is that of conflict of interest. But that the same minister who championed total debt repayment is the same minister that is encouraging GEJ to borrow fresh debts from all over the world is highly suspicious and gravely dissapointing in view of the widely canvassed views for debt repayment. What happened to doing things purely on principles? |

Obiagelli: she has borrowed that paid debt again probably for another kick back. Can believe we will be servicing debts with 700billion next year. most of the original debt was not used to do anything as it ended up in the pockets of IBB and Abacha. IBB used part of the IMF loan to procure sardines for the military. Fact! |
