space, former Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, yesterday, said she
had nothing to do with the campaign posters suggesting that she would be
running alongside former Vice President Atiku Abubakar in the 2019 Presidential
election.
A statement by Paul C Nwabuikwu! her
Media Consultant stated that “Our attention has been drawn to speculative media
stories linking former Minister of Finance, Dr Okonjo-Iweala with the next
presidential election scheduled to hold in 2019.
“In an effort to invest their
efforts with phony credibility, those behind the project have even gone to the
extent of designing a fake campaign poster embossed with her image.
“This is to clarify that Dr
Okonjo-Iweala who is busy with important international duties has absolutely
nothing to do with these speculations and activities.
“She has neither discussed nor endorsed them
with anybody. “We urge the Nigerian media and public to ignore this mischievous
exercise and its sponsors.”
