The pan Igbo socio political group, Ohanaeze Ndigbo youth wing, has insisted that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, is trying to convict wife of the former President, Goodluck Jonathan, Patience Jonathan at all cost.

Recall that the anti-graft agency had recently confirmed that Mrs Jonathan is being investigated for money laundering, but no case has been instituted against her in any court yet.

The Commission took a step further in its ongoing investigations by freezing her personal account in Skye Bank Plc, titled ‘Patience Ibifaka Jonathan.’

In her defence, Mrs Jonathan claimed the money was meant for her medical treatment abroad, and asked EFCC to defreeze the account or face legal action.

But, Ohanaeze’s National President, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, in a statement criticised the commission for subjecting its suspects to media trial without thorough investigations.

According to Isiguzoro, “The EFCC is simply persecuting ex first lady, Dame Patience Jonathan. She has already been found guilty without trial in a court of competent jurisdiction. This is unhealthy for our democracy. EFCC is clearly running a campaign of calumny intended to convict Dame Patience Jonathan at all cost. The former first lady is yet to be tried in court, yet the EFCC has been treating her as a criminal. This strategy of trial in the media must stop.

“To fight corruption, the process must be thorough and not selective. EFCC is not a court and must submit to the laws of the land. The haste to rush to the media to vilify suspects is responsible for the low number of convictions recorded by the EFCC.

“If we may ask, where are the wives of former first ladies including past Nigerian leaders who were at various times accused of corruption? Why can’t they be investigated? We can only take EFCC serious as anti graft agency when it investigates the likes of ex-Presidents, Ibrahim Babangida, Abdulsalami Abubakar, Olusegun Obasanjo, including late ones.”

Why should she be convicted when they are thieves in the presidential cabal

A thief doesn't have the right to catch a thief atleast for once let the Buhari Administration Practice What They Preach

Simple

The useless woman deserves every humiliation that comes her way. Her misguided talks and misuse of power coupled with her insatiable greed for state resources cost her husband the re-election. Unlike Aisha buhari opposing her husband and speaking on behalf of the masses, this bag of fat called mama Piss kept amassing needless wealth and building hotels as if she has any child to inherit all her illegally acquired vanity. Barren witch

In your own opinion, should the loots be returned or should she be allowed to go with it? What's your opinion?

Seriously i'm confused @ these supporters


You're free to support or even protest but why the fvck will ur mode of defence be WHERE ARE THE OTHER FIRST LADIES?

Is that even a defence @all?

So if your landlord serves u quit notice for owing rent and you drag him to court...you will say to the court, why am I the only one being evicted when other tenants are also owing rent?

I'm confused.

Stupidty!

This is what is most pressing for Ohanaeze Ndigbo youth wing while most of their mothers are in their villages scraping their livelihood through backbreaking activities!

You are wrong on this one, there has been protests in the Niger Delta about this already.

Good Bless Ohaneze Ndigbo, this proves to Nigeria that the Igbo stand with us and we stand with them.

Who wan fear make ein begin fear

even ojukwu will be mad at ohaneze for saying this trash,when she was looting the treasury where you given a dime,the only thing I can phantom here is that the hatred for buhari is the reason most easterners support corruption, its not as if they wish to.no matter whose ox to s gored, let's call a spade a spade
