We have heard all sorts of amounts being bandied in the media against Jonathan’s wife and wonder why Abacha’s wife, YarAdua’s wife and the others who have universities in their name are not being subjected to the same scrutiny.”

“Why is Jonathan being picked on? What are they afraid of? Did he not leave them with the power? It portents danger for everyone.

Amaechi and his buccaneers must know that they are not unknown to our people.”
