GEJ CORRUPTION: Oil business is oily.
YOU KNOW THIS OIL BUSINESS IS VERY OILY — GOODLUCK JONATHAN
• Jonathan's Response when Saraki pointed out to him he observed Scam in Oil Subsidy
～ The Senate President said, "I like to share one or two things that will probably summarise the former President Jonathan. I remember when I was then a PDP senator and I came across this issue of fuel subsidy and the way the country was losing close to about N1.3tn."
"In the history of this country, I don’t think of any singular kind of level of corruption as huge as that. I had a motion already that I wanted to present on the floor of the Senate. But I felt as a member of the ruling party at that time, it was only proper I discussed it with the President (first) maybe some action can be taken so that I can step down the motion."
He added, "I booked an appointment to see Mr. President and I went with my paper."
"I started with the background of how people brought in petroleum products. I said Mr. President, in the past, people use to get award letters from the NNPC to bring in PMS, DPK, and make 10, 20 per cent profit. I said sir, they’ve taken it to another level, now, and they get an order to bring in products and they don’t want to make 10 or 20 per cent any more."
"They will get an offer to bring in a cargo of 20,000 litres they will bring in 5,000 litres but stamped it for 20,000 litres and instead of making 10 per cent; they make ten times the amount. I was telling the President thinking the President will get very agitated, but he only said, ‘Senator Saraki, you know this oil business is very oily."
The Senate President said he was stunned. Saraki, however, conceded that that was the kind of person the then President was.
