The Catholic Bishop of Sokoto, Mathew Hassan Kukah has slammed people who took money from former president Goodluck Jonathan.
He said such persons should be ashamed of themselves.
Kukah also insisted that his relationship with Jonathan had nothing to do with financial gain.
He stated this in an interview in the current edition of The Interview.
“Despite my friendship with Jonathan over this long period of time, we never discussed a penny, we never discussed one dollar; we never exchanged a penny, and we never exchanged a dollar,” Kukah said.
The cleric also claimed that some journalists have selfish interests and collected “tons of money” from the former president.
“Suddenly, journalists whom I knew were writing, hoping they would be given positions (by Buhari) and all those who were abusing me have gone full cycle,” he said.
He continued: “Those who should be ashamed of themselves are those who took money from Jonathan, tons of it, and have decided to lie, buried under the table; they have decided to change course in the middle of the race. Those are the guys who you should be talking about.”
