It has been brought to my attention that while I am away promoting democracy in Sierra Leone, a campaign will be unleashed against me to falsely impugn my name using both faceless and identified persons.
When I was in power I said my ambition is not worth the blood of any Nigerian. Even out of power, I continue to hold that belief.
What I will say however, is that no matter how far and fast falsehood has traveled, it must eventually be overtaken by truth. GEJ.
the Nigeria presidency in a statement on Saturday, March 24, urged the leadership of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) to stop raising “false alarms in order to gain public sympathy and divert attention from its abysmal past record and failures”.
