Former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili has angrily described the government’s attack on her personality for attending the World Economic Forum (WEF) in South Africa as part of cheap and frustrated strategy designed to bully, slander, denigrate her at every opportunity.

While reacting to the alleged attacks, Ezekwesili in series of tweets stated that “You’d be naive to think that the mob action the Nigeria Government planned, incited and orchestrated against me was “because she went to WEF when the country boycotted it”. No. Just part of a cheap & frustrated strategy designed to bully, slander, denigrate me at every opportunity.

“A Nigeria Government that had several of its high ranking and low ranking officials in South Africa when I arrived for WEF on Wednesday mischievously rolls out the drumbeats of attacks against me, a private citizen for “ignoring the boycott of WEF. Their dishonesty is incurable.
