Jonathan Moves To Kill Ribadu Report - Aide Calls It “Inconclusive”



President Goodluck Jonathan appears to be maneuvering to discredit the report of the Petroleum Revenue Special Task Force, which was headed by Mallam Nuhu Ribadu.

His attack dog, Senior Special Assistant on Public Affairs, Dr. Doyin Okupe, said the report appeared to be the work of "certain quarters" to "disparage the genuine efforts of the President to bring sanity and cleanse the Nigerian oil sector once and for all."

On Thursday, from his office at Asokoro District of Abuja, Okupe declared that the committee did not complete its assignment.
One of the major terms of reference of the committee, he said, was “to work with consultants and experts to determine and verify all petroleum upstream and downstream revenues (taxes, royalties, etc) due and payable to the federal government of Nigeria” but this aspect of the committee assignment, he claimed, was left undone.
