Instead of explaining to Nigerians how over N8 trillion that should have accrued to the country from the sales of oil between January 2012 and July 2013 was diverted by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), the Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, on Tuesday lashed out at those she claimed have mounted a “campaign of falsehoods and distortions” against her.

In press statement released on Tuesday evening, in an apparent response to a PREMIUM TIMES exclusive story of how the NNPC, under the watch of the petroleum minister, Diezani Alison-Madueke, illegally corners 76 percent of all crude oil sales, Mrs Okonjo-Iweala said she “has been the subject of high profile media attacks from several quarters” by elements whose aim is to unduly politicise her management of the country’s economy.
