GEJ never confirmed withholding of $10b from Federation account - FG
This is a State House Press release sent by Mr Reuben Abati. Find it below.. (Jonathan pictured at Schiphol Amsterdam airport, Netherlands, on March 22 to attend the Security Summit in The Hague)
Reports in some domestic media today which quoted President Goodluck Jonathan as "confirming" in Amsterdam that the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) wrongly withheld $10 Billion from the federation account are completely false and a total distortion of the President's comments during his meeting with the Nigerian community in the Netherlands.
At no time during the well-attended reception did President Jonathan also confirm any "irregularities" in the NNPC.

Actor James Rebhorn dead at 65; a familiar face in character roles (Photos)
James Rebhorn, whose acting resume includes a long list of character roles in major films and TV shows, died Friday, his representative said Sunday. Rebhorn was 65.
While you may not know his name, Rebhorn's face may be familiar as the arrogant headmaster in Al Pacino's "Scent of a Woman" or the scheming secretary of defense in "Independence Day."
Think back to the series finale of TV's "Seinfeld" in 1998. Rebhorn played the district attorney.
More recently, he was Frank Matheson in eight episodes of "Homeland."
Rebhorn was one of those busy actors sometimes referred to as "that guy." Tall and gangly, he had a face that served him well as a villain or corrupt politician.
