"I'm Being Investigated" - Goodluck Jonathan

Ex-president Goodluck Jonathan has disclosed that he is being investigated by the Muhammadu Buhari-led federal government for corruption. Jonathan said this in an exclusive interview with Bloomberg.

“I cannot say the country from the beginning of our independence, that there was no corruption, yes there has been corruption. I did very well also, to curtail corruption.

"My approach to corruption, was ‘don’t make money available for anyone to touch.


“We made sure that area of fertiliser subsidies was cleaned up,and the whole corruption there was removed. I tried to do the same in the oil industry, but the very people that were accusing us of corruption, were the same people frustrating it, its unfortunate."

Asked if he was concerned that he would be investigated for corruption while in office, Jonathan said he is being investigated. “Obviously, I’m being investigated”.

Jonathan continued, “I will allow the government to do the work its supposed to do. I wouldn’t want to make serious comments on that, its not proper. After all these investigations, the whole stories will be properly chronicled. I’ve just left office, and I should allow the President and his team to do what they believe is good for the country. "

It is known that Jonathan’s aides have come under scrutiny, since he left office, over massive looting.
