What does she want us to do with this admission when the deed is already done??

TheGoodJoe:
So, when Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala talks about Nigerians having zero will to save, who are we to blame? Goodluck Jonathan, Governors?

Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala was the Coordinating Minister of the Economy.

She was in the driving seat to direct the Nigerian Government. During a windfall, the person who was to save the money, dip her hands in the reserves, without the knowledge of those who owned the money.

She went on to deceive people that the FAAC backed it but later the FAAC denied her claims.

She shifted to GEJ that he ordered her to withdraw from the ECA to pay for Subsidies.

That was where we lost the wheel to save. Our Crude Sales were mismanaged during a time of plenty and we resorted to paying for Subsidy from the ECA.

She was the one to find a way and show to Nigerians that we were to save but she was the one who first dipped her hands into the ECA without appropriation.

Did follow the drama then, do u know how Amechi and Oshimole went to court for that ECA? Don say what you don't know.

maupe:

There is no admission of guilt in her statement. She merely stated what she has always said: That the governors and some members of political parties frustrated the efforts of her and the executive to save for the future. The only thing she did was to leave that part out. It is inconsequential to mention the names of Fashola and Amaechi in a lecture at an American College

modath:


Una don start bah?

NOI talked about LACK OF WILL , check the meaning & "USAGE" before trying to engage in discuss far above your comprehension....

Amaechi, The all powerful arm twisted the 52% federal share out of Hero IB's control as well?

Like the ECA is even constitutional...

Abegiii, exit stage left with your Amaechi induced Paranoia.......

This is an indictment of the government, she served under, not Amaechi.

She said, there was no political will to save. Who does the saving? Is it Amaechi or the federal government.

Obama is currently being denied his right to nominate and confirm a supreme court judge, by the Republican congress. Will you hold Obama responsible for that. Remember the President was forced by a judgement from a federal high court to release the funds.

boujaye:
f NOI truly said so, then she is right. Amaechi and co, never wanted the Excess Crude Oil reserved to be saved, they will go to court and be over ruled "share the money". Today everybody suffers the repercussion.

Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala was the Coordinating Minister of the Economy.

She was in the driving seat to direct the Nigerian Government. During a windfall of Crude Oil Sales at over $100, the person who was to save the money, dipped her hands in the reserves, without the knowledge of those who owned the money.

She went on to deceive people that the FAAC backed it but later the FAAC denied her claims.

She shifted to GEJ that he ordered her to withdraw from the ECA to pay for Subsidies.

tbaba1234:


No one said Obama lacked the will to nominate.

Here, NOI is saying there was no political will to save. Meaning, the government did not take saving seriously.

omenka:
Let me ask you a simple question in the hope that you give me an honest straightforward answer: what exactly can we hold NOI and Jonathan accountable for in he last admin?

maupe:


Obama has already nominated Merrick Garland, but the Congress has refused to give him a hearing, not to talk of a confirmation. In 1989 President George Bush Snr got elected on the basis that he would cut taxes, but when the congress became dominated by Democrats, they made sure that he could not accomplish this. At the next election, he lost to Bill Clinton, for failing to fulfil his promise. Did he lack political will. Infact he went on live tv shortly after his election, and stated the famous "READ MY LIPS, NO NEW TAXES" speech. Governance is not a bed of roses

tbaba1234:


OBJ saved even with pressure from governors because there was the political will.

There was no political will in GEJ regime. This is coming from a person who served as the finance minister for both parties.

9jatatafo:


NOI was in the driving seat as you said but there was a boss and those legislators as well as governors who spent money as tomorrow will not come.
