Terrorism: Edwin Clark Wants Nigerians To Learn From Paris Attack.. by Kingspin(m): 7:34pm On Jan 16, 2015
Abuja :The Ijaw leader, Chief Edwin Clark, has
lashed out at the opposition for
always criticizing President Goodluck
Jonathan over insecurity in the
Northeast, saying they should learn
from the recent incident in Paris, France, where terrorists killed 12
journalists. Clark, who is a political father of the
President, told Journalists in Abuja that
former President Olusegun Obasanjo
and his deputy, Abubakar Atiku, are
the most corrupt leaders that the
country has ever produced. He did not also spare the All
Progressive Congress (APC)
presidential candidate, Gen.
Muhammad Buhari, whom he said was
not as clean as people were made to
believe. The former federal commissioner, who
spoke when he received a delegation
of Northern Youths Movement for
Positive Change led by David Glavda,
said: we should learn from the recent
incidence in Paris where terrorists killed 12 journalists in a bomb attack.
Over 3.7 million people marched in
solidarity with their President and that
was attended by over 40 world
leaders. “But in Nigeria, the opposition will use
the press to attack the government for
no just cause and make inflammatory
and inciting statements that the Boko
Haram was brought by Mr. president
while they know that Boko Haram is mainly used to destabilize the
government in support of the
statements they made earlier that ‘they
will make the country ungovernable
unless they are in power.” He said the opposition does not see
insecurity as “a national problem.” “They refused the extension of state
of emergency in the three northern
states in order to benefit from the
confusion that will arise during
elections in those areas where
insurgency thrives,” he added. Speaking on corruption charges
against the Jonathan led government,
the elder statesman told journalists
that those shouting to the roof were
the real corrupt people. He alleged that Obasanjo and Atiku
were the most corrupt leaders. He said: “Those of them who are
corrupt are the ones shouting
corruption to divert attention.
Obasanjo is one of the most corrupt
leaders and I am going to give my
own account of him very soon because he has been busy shouting
corruption and he is the most corrupt
person. Abubakar Atiku is another
corrupt person. Both himself and
Obasanjo accused themselves of
squandering PTDF money. “They are shouting corruption,
corruption, what do you want to do to
fight corruption? They have not said
anything. On the APC presidential candidate,
Chief Clark said his hands were not
clean as people were made to believe. He said, “Buhari brought three
consultants, his in-laws and they were
mere consultants. Because as usual he
was not mentally alert, he cannot do
anything, he delegated the job of PTF
to this three people who were mere consultants as executive director. “My brother (Prof. Clark who was also
a member of board) even threatened
to resign. Buhari did nothing at PTF. It
was these people that were busy
running PTF excluding other members
of the trust fund. “And at the end of it, Obasanjo sets up
inquiry and that inquiry found Buhari
and his three men guilty of
squandering N25billion and that had
been unaccounted for till today.
Obasanjo in the interest of peace refused to make the outcome of the
report public. “Last week that report was leaked, we
are going to comment. If anybody
says that Buhari’s hands are clean that
is not true.”

Did Clark see how France fished out the killers in France? The French president got into action by mobilizing 88,000 police and soldiers to tackle the killers within 24 hours. We didn't see the president of France ask his fellow citizen to pray to solve their problem. The president of France motivated his country when the country needed him to do so.
