Dr Akilu Sanni Indabawa, the Special Adviser to President Goodluck Jonathan has written the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr. Mohammed Adokie, asking him to investigate claims that he received N500 million each on behalf of President Goodluck Jonathan from six state governors as campaign contributions.

The presidential adviser also asked the AGF to investigate the authenticity of a letter he purportedly wrote to the governors to  acknowledge the donations allegedly made to help fund the campaign of President Jonathan.

Indabawa who firmly denied receiving any such donations therefore asked the AGF to investigate the matter so as to clear his name and that of the President on the issue.

The letter which was circulated to journalists read:  “I write to complain about a story on President Goodluck’s Campaign funding published in Peoples Daily (Vol. 4 No. 88 Wednesday, January 5, 2011, p. 1 – 3), Vanguard (Vol. 25: No. 61273, Wednesday, January 5, 2011, p. 1 and p. 5) and on the website of online news medium, Saharareporters.

“The publication alleges that, I wrote and “signed” letters “on behalf of His Excellency, President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan (GCFR), to acknowledge with thanks the receipt of your mandatory financial contribution of N500m each to the Jonathan/Sambo Presidential Campaign Organisation.

“The letters were purportedly written to the Governors of Bauchi, Benue, Cross River, Ebonyi, Katsina, and Ogun States, each of whom serves as the Zonal Coordinator for the Goodluck/Sambo Presidential Campaign Organisation.

“I have never written any such letter.

“I never, directly or indirectly, ever got, or, was ever involved in any Goodluck/Sambo Presidential Campaign funding matters or transactions with any one – Governors and all others alike.

“I therefore humbly invite you to take appropriate legal steps to bring the perpetrators to justice”, he concluded.
