Jonathan Denies Buying $15M Property In United Kingdom

NIGERIA'S Immediate-past President Goodluck Jonathan has denied owning a £15m property in the United Kingdom, which a former Editor of the UK SUN, Kelvin Mackenzie, had credited to the Nigerian leader in his weekly column on Saturday that Jonathan had bought a property in Surrey.








The former editor, who tried to play pun on Jonathan's name, said in the write-up, “I hear the aptly named Goodluck Jonathan, the former President of oil-rich Nigeria, has bought a 12,000 square foot house on the ultra-expensive and well protected St George’s Hill estate in Weybridge, Surrey.


“I’m sure he gained his wealth legitimately but these houses are £10-£15million a pop, so, perhaps the ex-President could explain where his money came from as he has been at the forefront of the fight against his country’s corruption. Surely, it can’t all have been good luck.”


In his reaction,  Jonathan, through his media aide, Mr. Ikechukwu Eze, denied the report and demanded a retraction from the newspaper.


A statement put out by the Nigerian immediate president  read in part, “Nothing could be further from the truth. Dr. Goodluck Jonathan takes pride in the fact that he does not have any property or accounts outside Nigeria. He stated this publicly while in office and his commitment to Nigeria’s economy remains total even after he left power.


“As the Nigerian President who signed the Freedom of Information bill into law, Dr. Jonathan is well aware that the United Kingdom is a nation with good record keeping at county and national levels and as such, it will not take a serious and responsible media long to verify ownership of property before rushing to the press with potentially libellous publications.


“It is hoped that this publication will correct its error and do a retraction and that other media will likewise follow up on this story to put the lie to the details it contains.”

We need proof to verify this claim, in the absence of none, Jonathan remains innocent

Am not saying GEJ is a saint, but their fight against him is looking more like LIBEL and SLANDER.

If the man is corrupt, charge him for corruption. Let him face a competent court of jurisdiction. Back up your charges with evidence, real evidence, and not this metaphorical evidence I see....

GEJ, we know your hands are not clean, but thank you for what you did for us. Under you Nigeria was a construction site...

God bless you

The radio without battery oyibo man no get sense. Shey e no know sey oga jona no get house for abroad. Ein con go rush go marketsquare with this yeye story, wen one yoruba person give am. See how Yoruba don disgrace am now. Oyibo, naija APC people too dey lie, dey no send if e go hit them for eye, they just wan lie.

Its been one full year since Goofluck Jonathan left Aso Rock but even at that his name still rings bell even more it did during his stay at Aso Vila.

GEJ will go down into history as the most celebrated Nigerian president ever.

Buhari & his team of liars, his team of confused men & his team of noise makers keep celebrating him everyday. Thinking they are destroying him.

If GEJ goes anywhere in the world press men makes it their headline cos GOODLUCK JONATHAN is a brand the sells News better & faster than PURE WATER.

If he is boarding or coming out from airplane, photo journalists & paparazis will full the place just like bees around honey comb.

GEJ nobody can pull you down. Na you biko. Peace be unto your GENERATION

This insensitive people are still witch-hunting when all hands ought to be on deck. A whole year has gone and they are still on this corruption saga.

Then somebody should name it Donsmith123 property. Simple!

Gej sir, no weapon formed against you shall proper. If they come in one way, they will flee in seven direction. Enjoy your freedom sir.

I believe this man is a beloved of the Lord and God will fight for him in a way that we all least expect. A man who stopped blood from flowing but another who didn't care if precious human blood was shed for his interest and frustration !!!!!! May Jéhovah GUARD GEJ!!!!
