See Where Fayose Got pres. Buhari Angry

The drama between the embattled governor of Ekiti State went worse when Peter Ayodele Fayose recently accused the wife of president Mohammed Buhari of being involved in the Haliburton scandal.

In his accusation, governor Fayose said if the government of president Buhari was actually fighting curruption it would have looked into the money scandal which the wife's name Aisha Buhari was included.

On the part of EFCC, Ibrahim Lamorode who was the former director of operations when reacting to the statement accredited to Ekiti state governor said, the name AISHA BUHARI mention among the people indicted in the Haliburton scandal was not refering to the wife of president Buhari. According to him,

“I was the director of operations at the EFCC at the time so I know about the case very well.

I can tell you that it is not her (President Buhari’s wife)~ Ibrahim Lamorde''.

Recall that the name AISHA BUHARI was among the Haliburton bribery scandal, which dates back to 1994 when the Nigerian government was to launch an ambitious plan to build the Bonny Island Natural Liquefied Gas Project, where $182 million bribery was said to be taken in exchange of $6 billion for the launching of the said Project.
Since then, reactions has continue to trail among Nigerians stressing that those involve should be brought to book. Indications has it that after the Fayose's statement till date things has not gone down well with him.
