2007: IBB must account for oil windfall –Anglican Primate
Insisting that the past of aspirants to political office in next year’s general elections be closely scrutinised, the Primate of the Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion, Most Rev. Peter Akinola, yesterday threw the gauntlet for former military president Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida ,demanding that he account for the $12 billion oil windfall which accrued to the country in 1991.

Akinola spoke in Abuja while briefing newsmen on the forthcoming 2-day conference planned by the Church and scheduled for nex Thursday. Said he: “we are tired of recycled politicians who have over the years, run our industries down making Nigeria remain a baby even after 47 years of Independence.''

He said such politicians must be rejected because they had plundered before and were planning a return to do the same. ``Where is the $12 billion we realised from the Gulf War? Who has ever accounted for it? “It is the same people who are coming back to ask Nigerians to vote them into power again,'' he said.

He said that while the present administration had made some positive achievements these were however `like a drop in a mighty ocean.' The primate noted that the nation's problems were legion and needed a comprehensive approach.

``Yes we are fighting corruption, thank God; but how many Nigerians have been put behind bars as a result of the fight?'' he asked. He also wanted to know what happened to those alleged to have received or gave out large sums during the third term controversy. ``That is why I said in Lagos recently that the ICPC and the EFCC have failed, as far as I am concerned,'' he said. On the forthcoming conference, with the theme ``Welfare of the Nigerian nation,'' Akinola said it would address the role of the Anglican Communion in Nation building.

``It is our intention to use the occasion of the conference to rediscover and celebrate the contributions of Anglican forebears in the development of the nation. ``Our re-discovery will lead us to challenge the leadership of our generation, what contribution and legacy it seeks to leave for future generations,'' he said.

According to him, “our re-discovery tells us that after 47 years of independence, the great vision of our founding fathers is lost in the wilderness of greed, corruption and self-seeking centredness.”
