A former Chief Whip of the Senate, Senator Rowland Owie, has called on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, to immediately begin probe of the administration of ex- President Olusegun Obasanjo.
He said the call became necessary following alleged fraudulent activities perpetrated during the tenure of the former President, whom he described as an anti- democrat.
Owie, who predicted victory for President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015, stated that Obasanjo caused the problems being suffered today by Nigerians due to his alleged misrule and failure to create jobs for the youths.
“And that is why today, immediately he left, Boko Haram started killing Nigerians in the North because Obasanjo’s regime failed to create jobs for our youths.
“I read in the papers, yesterday, of shocking revelations of fraud perpetrated by Obasanjo’s administration. I urge the police and the EFCC to start investigating these allegations immediately. Some of us have been saying it that Obasanjo’s regime has been the most corrupt regime that ever ruled this country.
“Obasanjo is the worst thing that had happened to Nigeria. He should be probed by EFCC publicly. Jonathan is working day and night to clean up the mess he left behind, yet he cannot see anything good in the man and for some of us it is satanic”, Owie added.
