Okonjo-Iweala denies attacking Buhari

Former Finance Minister, Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala has denied the news going round in some sections of the social media alleging that she was attacking the Buhari-led administration.
Reacting to the allegation on her twitter handle on Tuesday she tweeted: “My attention has been drawn to a spurious and nefarious story circulating on the internet. The story makes false claims of utterances against President Buhari.
“I had earlier debunked the same fake news on Jan 5, 2017, but it is obviously in some people’s interest to see this falsehood circulate again”.
Also, Paul C. Nwabukwu, Media Adviser to Okonjo-Iweala issued a press statement with the title: “Fake Statements Attributed to Okonjo-Iweala” and he wrote: “The comments on the performance of the Nigerian economy being circulated by unknown persons and attributed to Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala were not made by her.
“Like the previous fake audio by an imposter pretending to be her, this is another desperate action by mischievous persons. The former minister doesn’t need anyone to speak for her because, as everyone knows, she is very capable of speaking for herself. We urge the media and Nigerian public to ignore these petty gimmicks”. Nwabukwu concluded.
