The Presidency has denied claims by some youths in
Bayelsa state that it has frozen the accounts of former
President Goodluck Jonathan and stopped his
allowances as a former President.
During a protest in the state yesterday, Youths in
Bayelsa accused the present administration of
victimizing the former president and his family using the
EFCC and other related agencies. This claim has now
been debunked by Shehu Garba. Read the statement
below...
The allegation by demonstrators in Bayelsa State
on Thursday that allowances due to a former
President have been stopped and his bank
accounts were frozen is patently untrue. We have
confirmed with the Secretary to the Government
of the Federation (SGF) that the former President
and the other past leaders were paid their
allowances up to the second quarter. The past
leaders have not been paid third quarter
allowances but will get their dues when
remittances are received by the SGF from the
Ministry of Finance. Also, the story of account
closure is false. It is not known to the
investigation agencies. The National Security
Adviser to the President is not aware of this bank
account closure; the DG SSS is unaware of it, the
EFCC is unaware and the IG of Police is not in the
know. With all of these agencies not being
involved, how then could a thing like that
happen? In a dream perhaps! To put it starkly, we
believe there is a clear motive for the
demonstration that is different from that which
was being canvassed. This is a premeditated
attempt to blame President Muhammadu Buhari
for something he knows nothing about. These
claims are false and poorly sourced to present a
picture of vendetta; and they should be
disregarded by well-meaning members of the
public. President Buhari remains committed to
the ideals of justice and fairness to all
irrespective of creed, religion and political
leanings. His administration will not engage in
vendetta.
