Ex-President Goodluck Jonathan has reportedly denied going on exile over fears of his arrest by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
Mr. Jonathan, who handed over to President Muhammadu Buhari last year May following his defeat at the polls, has recently come under scrutiny following allegations that he approved the disbursement of billions of dollars from the treasury without approval, to fund his re-election.
Following calls for his arrest to clear himself of these weighty allegations, the ex-president reportedly went on “temporary self-exile” in Cote d’Ivoire until the coast is clear for him to return to Nigeria.
However, a news flash by controversial online news medium, Sahara Reporters, said Mr. Jonathan, who left Nigeria almost two months ago for the United States from where he traveled to London to be with his children for a few days preparatory to his return to the country, has denied going on exile.
