Okonjo-Iweala’s Reply to Femi Falana’s Call for Her Probe at ICC (READ)
After writing a petition to the International Criminal Court asking for the probe of all those who looted money meant for purchase of arms and calling for the head of former minister of finance, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala for committing gross crimes against humanity, Nigeria’s leading human rights lawyer, Femi Falana (SAN) has received an insulting rejoinder from Dr. Ngozi Okonjo Iweala.
Writing him today (Tuesday) through a statement signed by her media adviser, Paul Nwabuikwu, Iweala called the learned lawyer an integrity challenged charlatan and called his attempt to bring her into the corruption scandal a malicious attempt to spoil her name.
“The malicious attempt by Lagos Lawyer, Femi Falana to mix Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala up in issues that have nothing to do with her in his letter to the International Criminal Court (ICC) is a desperate joke by an integrity challenged charlatan (ICC).
“This misadventure shows that the so-called learned lawyer does not have any idea of what the mandate of the ICC is about.
“He has resorted to this action because his previous efforts to tarnish her name – through his discredited NGO, SERAP and petitions to the EFCC – failed because they were lacking in credibility.” Iweala wrote.
However, Falana promised to reply the former minister in due time.
