If
I had been invited by President Muhamnadu Buhari or Professor Paden to
the book launch I would have mounted the podium and said as much. Sadly I
was not.
Permit me to end this contribution by making a
suggestion to Paden. Since he wrote about Jonathan's campaign funds and
alleged all manner of corruption concerning their source and
application, in his next book on President Buhari I would suggest that
he sheds more light on how his subjects own 2015 presidential campaign
funds were sourced.
For a start he
should tell us who provided the 10 million USD that was paid as
consultancy fees to the company of Mr. David Axelrod, President Barack
Obama's erstwhile campaign manager.
He should also tell us the
source of funds and how Buhari and his team managed the 19 billion naira
that was given to him in cash by the then sitting Governor of the
leading and largest state in the south west and the 24.6 billion naira
that was given to him in cash and in one day (which was recorded on
video before being handed over) by another leading south western
politician.
In addition to that he should tell us precisely how
much the then Governors of Rivers and Kano states and the present
Governors of Ogun and Kwara states amongst many others contributed to
Buhari's campaign and where they got the money from.
Since
everyone is claiming to be holy and righteous in this matter let us all
get there and publicly exchange notes. After all the Nigerian public,
and indeed the entire world, has a right to know.
If Paden fails
to ask those questions and declines to provide the answers then he, his
accursed books and his questionable and dubious "white-washing" mission
of President Muhammadu Buhari shall undoubtedly remain damned forever.
Whether
he does so or not other governments that will come to power in the
future in this country will not only get the necessary answers but they
will also do the appropiate thing and bring them to justice. It is only a
matter of time.
