President Jonathan Demands Apology,calls Inclusion in List Of Richest African Presidents BASELESS AND LIBELOUS



Yesterday, a report was published by richestlist.com, listing President Jonathan as the 6th Richest African President,with a net worth of $100million dollars.
Here is a state house release demanding a retraction and an apology
We have noted with consternation the listing of President  Goodluck Ebele Jonathan by a website – RichestLifestyle.com - as the sixth richest African President with an estimated net worth of $100 Million U.S. Dollars.
The Presidency condemns the totally unwarranted inclusion of President Jonathan in the publication titled “Africa’s Richest Presidents 2014” as another attempt to unjustifiably portray the President as a corrupt leader and incite public disaffection against him.
We categorically assert that there is no factual basis for ranking President Jonathan as the sixth richest African Head of State with a net worth of about $100 Million U.S. Dollars.
