Another source, however said the $2.27m was money duly approved by the Ministry of Defence for certain projects, earmarked for the Nigerian High Commission in India. The senior officer said the money was part of the amount released for the unnamed project. He said the project was initially meant to be carried out by a former defence attache (a Navy Captain), who is currently at the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies. According to the source, ”Following the appointment of a new defence adviser, the cost of the project was reviewed downward.” He said that through preliminary investigation and discussion with Ojedokun, ”we discovered that the officer was trying to return the money which is the balance of the original sum that was approved for the project.” He, however, noted that problem arose because Ojedokun failed to declare the money as required by international practice. He said the incident was blown out of proportion simply because it involved a diplomat.

doyin13: I find it one of the most absurd connections linking Soyinka and cultism.
A disastrous distortion of history.

For the guy on a bike, I believe it was an okada. This was a status thing and for the same reason even in US, if someone just signs a multi million dollar deal with your boss and he jumps into a wreck of a car your same boss that rides a cycle will wonder if he can fulfil the contract.
