..Says he will go to jail for his atrocities
The Ned Nwoko Media Directorate has condemned a video where the Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, purportedly made wild insinuations against Hon. Prince Ned Nwoko.
In the video, the governor dabbled again into the issue of the $418 Paris Club refunds, which the Media Directorate said is the legitimate entitlement of Prince Ned Nwoko, “whose patriotic ingenuity, as a time-honoured lawyer, secured billions of dollars in favour of local and State governments including Wike’s administration as a beneficiary.
Recall that Wike had chastised Ned Nwoko for laying claim to monies the international lawyer genuinely earned and approved by the Federal government following various Federal High Courts, Court of Appeal and Supreme Court judgments, Federal Government and presidential approvals and 3 separate EFCC reports supporting the payments.
“When has a demand for professional fees, duly sanctioned by statutory authorities and scrutinized by anti -corruption agencies like EFCC and DSS, become fraud? We are appalled by Wike’s wicked and despicable wild goose chase”, the Directorate noted.
It asserted on the contrary, that the Rivers State governor received a whopping share of over 60 billion Naira from the Paris Club refunds to the States, “thanks to the sterner stuff of Prince Ned Nwoko, who took the Federal government to Court on behalf of the States and local governments and won over the arbitrary deductions”.
