"There are some phony and maliciously crafted quotes (circulating on social media platforms and Blackberry messenger) attributed to me. The one created today says that I said that the poor don't get it. It is entirely false and made up by people are committed to selling lies. The people on this hideous campaign are the ones who don’t get it. No amount of falsehood will ever triumph over truth. I neither hold such opinions nor use such phrases. Please disregard tweets and messages that purport to broadcast my quotes. I only speak to reputable news organisations and not individuals. Thank you very much for your time."

Some people can be really foolish. Who can tell me her crime. What wrong did she commit. She said that because she is tired of people changing her stories and now some eedoits here on nl are cursing her. If the first posters had commended her others would have followed suit. Dunces.

I can only feel sorry for the poor woman. She contrives an economic solution to a problem that is primarily mass felony of a Government. If only she knew. . . .

[size=14pt]Don't mind the pack of shameless liars and haters. The bigotted protests failed woefully, thats why they are so red eyed and have resorted to lying shamelessly.

1000000000 lies will not bring back the subsidy, or return the "born to rule" to power.

Why insult a very intelligent woman. See my people; if Nigeria looses the woman, then we have lost a whole lot. Ngozi, Sanusi, and Goodluck are one of the smartest things that have happened to Nigeria in a long time. What is manifesting is the reality of a cleanse going on in Nigeria. We cannot live on borrowed money any more. Yes I agree we have to fight corruption, but we have to start from somewhere. Let’s give these people a chance abeg

I see nothing wrong in what Dr. Mrs Okonjo Iweala has done. She dissociating herself from a false information and we are here shouting her down. Please have some brains.

Carry on Ngozi, Nothing do you! You should not be swayed by the amount of insult from people who are bent on keeping Nigeria in captivity.

the same force who tried to prevent her nomination as minister are now bent on destroying her reputation. They can only try but will never succeed.

Carry on Amazon! May your days be long!
