FORMER President, Goodluck Jonathan, has exonerated himself from allegations that an Ex-President has been receiving N5 billion monthly from the Pension Fund.A report which was credited to Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, had alleged that the chief legal officer to the federation had told a Senate ad-hoc committee that an “Ex-President was taking N5 billion monthly from the Pension Fund.”

In a statement signed by Media adviser to the former president, Mr. Ikechukwu Eze, Jonathan said, “it is a blatant lie hurriedly cooked up to divert the attention of the general public from the raging ‘Mainagate’ and other embarrassing scandals.

“We believe that the story was concocted as part of the unfolding grand design to always dodge responsibility and blame every evil act taking place in the present dispensation on the past Jonathan administration.”
