Former Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, has revealed how some powerful aides of immediate past President Goodluck Jonathan embezzle $6 million yearly from the Cargo Tracking Note (CTN) charges.

In her recently released book, “Fighting Corruption is Dangerous: The Story Behind the Headlines”, Okonjo-Iweala said she became a target of very powerful interests after she sought and got approval from Jonathan for the implementation of the ports reforms, which include the abolishing of a Cargo Tracking Note (CTN) a regime which importers argued added costs to them for duplicate services.

Excerpts: “During my second month in office in September 2011, the issue of port congestion Okonjo-Iwealawas brought to the attention of the Economic Management team by members of Nigeria’s organised private sector, especially the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN) as a serious impediment to doing business. Importers were irate about a Cargo Tracking Note (CTN) regime which they argued added costs to them for duplicate services.

“They said that their cargos were already being tracked by the Nigerian Customs Service (NCS) from origin to destination, so then; there was no reason for the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) to collect this charge. Upon enquiry, we learned that charges totalled about $6 million a year, so this was consequential. I had never seen this money remitted to the treasury and, in fact, had not known of the existence of the CTN. We recommended that the CTN be abolished immediately.

“On October 14, 2011, the Minister of Transport and I sent a memo to the President that outlined the short, medium and long term problems of Nigeria’s ports, proposed solutions and requested approval for implementation shortly thereafter. Then the problems began. I received an anonymous text telling me the port reforms were bad and harmful and I should rescind them. I learned that some agencies such as the Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) and others that had been told to develop alternative collaborative arrangements with the Customs to take care of their responsibilities while staying out of the ports were not happy and were lobbying to be let back into the ports.

“About six weeks into the implementation of the port reforms, in early December 2011, I received a message that a top-ranking presidential aide wanted me to stop by his office anytime I was in the Villa.”

The former Director of World Bank further disclosed that she was locked out of the Villa for refusing to obey the order given by the unnamed influential aide in Jonathan’s administration to restore the CTN with immediate effect.

This is a misleading headline. Iweala stated they situation met on ground. They went ahead to implement reforms that blocked the loophole. Of course corrupt interest will fight back. The fact that its from the presidency is not strange. What do we say of Buhari’s former SGF Babachir Lawal? In this case I hear he is even spearheading Buhari’s re-election. He was also nominated to Apc convention Committee.
Certified hypocrites!

I agree with her that $6million is consequential(as if every kobo belonging to the government is not consequential) but why didn't she report this issue to the EFCC?
Mrs Okonjo Iweala was hands in glove with all the corrupt elements of GEJ's tenure and it's so sad that her memoir is just confirming what PMB has repeatedly told Nigerians.
The case should be revisited by the EFCC to retrieve the $6million collected for at least 5 years and all the thieves in NPA who were sharing the money be prosecuted.

Until a sitting president actually charges a past President for corruption then know that real change has come to Nigeria. It's almost an unwritten rule in Nigeria. Why Bubu;s war on corruption is a big sham.
Throwback:
Ngozi will soon be termer an Afonja, Jihadist and Zombie for not seeing that Jonathan was a saint who could never steal, and who employed only the best hands into positions.

Why Jonathan's head is not hanging on a pike at the entry point into Abuja city, is one of the many reasons I consider Buhari to be a spineless failure himself.

I'm getting a bit suspicious this recent trend okonjo said this she said must be the handiwork of apc because Okonjo we knew don't blabla like lair moha-mad.

I'm very sure this is apc game to always blame and blame they have mentioned virtually everybody in gej administration and no one else to mention they now turned to using okonjo to win ranks again Mr apc you failed.

Either it's Okonjo who said it or not it does not count again it's Nigeria money let apc go to hell. Deliver your mandate or your party die come 2019.

I can read some fools already shouting corruption and I'm still asking those fools where is that 23billion dollars NNPC contract scam Baru vs kachukwu Pls where is Mr Grass cutter Pls where is Maina or Meina Pls who owns ikoyi million dollars etc Yayah blew 5billion to recall Melaye is that iyayah salary

Pls if you are not mad just don't talk thrash like gej is corrupt here, pls just provide answer to all my questions above or just quietly go to hell.

PRESIDENT GOODLUCK EBELE JONATHAN AND HIS AIDES TURN THE COFFERS OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT INTO THEIR OWN ATM MACHINE.

They milk and milk and milk and milk the treasury to emptiness.

JONATHAN THAT WAS RUSHING TO GIVE LECTURES OVERSEAS NOW KNOW THAT THE WESTERNER WORLD IS FULLY AWARE OF HIS CORRUPT TENDENCIES.

May, Nigeria never experience the kind of looting that was masterminded by the JONATHANIAN in its history again.

no abacha, ibb,obj didn't have much to steal comparing Nigeria's earnings during their time.

The list is

1 -good luck Jonathan
2- abacha
3-ibb
4-obj.

Obj came last because despite the fact that Nigeria earnings was not much

He manages to pay debts(Paris fund )
And grow our reserves from 3$b to 45$b during his reign
Something to write home about.
