Ngozi Okonjo-iweala, Ex-finance Minister Spent $2.1bn Without Approval - NEC by candycrushsoda(op): 7:35am On Jun 30, 2015
This was disclosed on Monday, June 29, 2015, by
the National Economic Council (NEC) which is
chaired by Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo.

The Federal Government has accused former
Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala , of
spending $2.1bn from the Excess Crude Account
without approval.

This was disclosed on Monday, June 29, 2015, by
the National Economic Council (NEC) which is
chaired by Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo .
The NEC also consists of Nigeria’s 36 state
governors and Central Bank governor, Godwin
Emefiele .

“We looked at the numbers for the Excess Crude
Account. The last time the former Minister of
Finance and Coordinating Minister of the
Economy, Mrs Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, reported to
the council, and it is in the minutes, she
reported by November 2014 that we had $4.1
bn,” Edo State Governor, Adams Oshiomhole
told journalists after the NEC meeting in Abuja.

“Today, the Accountant-General Office
reported we have $2.0bn. Which means the
honourable minister spent $2.1bn without
authority of the NEC and that money was not
distributed to states, it was not paid to the
three tiers of government,” he added.

Oshiomhole had earlier accused Okonjo-Iweala
of borrowing heavily to satisfy the expenditure
of the Goodluck Jonathan administration.
