BOMBSHELL: Yale University Withdraws Honorary Doctorate Degree From Okonjo Iweala
Yale University had withdrawn the honorary doctorate degree awarded to
Nigeris's Minister Of Finance, Mrs Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala. The university
took this step days after awarding the degree having been convinced it
was undeserving. Read the citations or the degree and against it
below.
"YALE UNIVERSITY GAVE ITS PRESTIGIOUS HONORARY DOCTORATE DEGREE TO AN
UNDESERVING NIGERIAN":Ngozi Iweala, the outgoing Nigeria's finance
minister was awarded a honorary doctorate degree by Yale University on
May 15, 2015. The citation from the Yale University reads:"Ngozi
Okonjo-Iweala, Doctor of Humane Letters. You are a citizen of your
country, your continent, and the world. Shaped by challenging
experiences during your childhood in Nigeria, you have made social and
economic reform your mission. As Nigeria's coordinating minister of
economic development and minister of finance, you have tackled
corruption, created a vision and path to long-term economic stability,
and worked to build a culture of transparency. At the World Bank, you
made food security a priority and provided policy advice and capital
for the world's poorest countries. With wisdom, a fierce dedication to
doing what is right, and unflagging energy, you have transformed the
economic landscape of your nation. We are proud to name you Doctor of
Humane Letter"
Below is the citation against the Degree:
This citation from the Yale University does not reflect nor represent
everything that has happened under the watch and the supervision of
the Nigerian economy by Ngozi Iweala as the nation's finance minister.
There is no tangible evidence of any economic development in Nigeria
under the leadership of Ngozi Iweala in all reality. Nigeria's economy
is still an oil-dependent economy that is debt and borrowing ridden as
well as 100% consuming and importing in nature. Nigeria's debt profile
has risen rapidly under Ngozi Iweala and Nigeria has borrowed over $2
billion in the last four months alone to pay salaries of the federal
and state civil servants.
Our foreign reserves and excess crude oil accounts have both depleted
heavily under Ngozi Iweala. The recurrent expenditures in the federal
budgets reached the highest levels which made capital development
practically impossible in Nigeria under Ngozi Iweala. The board of
regents of this ivy league school missed it completely by awarding
their prestigious honorary doctorate degree to an undeserving Nigerian
in all truth, honesty and reality. The Nigeria's economy has remained
the same under Ngozi Iweala without any evidence of its diversity from
oil. The Nigerian Naira crashed to its lowest value in its history
under Ngozi Iweala. The true picture that Yale University missed is
the fact that the economy of Nigeria has almost grounded to its final
halt today which will makes its a daunting task for the incoming
administration of General Muhammadu Buhari to meet its campaign
promises.
The menace of official corruption and financial scandals have both
reached their peaks in Nigeria under Ngozi Iweala. A central bank
governor was fired for disclosing that $20 billion was missing from
the federal coffers and this allegation was investigated in a shady
and questionable manner. The oil subsidy scam that cheated Nigeria's
tax payers of trillions of Naira was coordinated and supervised by
Ngozi Iweala. The culture of official corruption and state resource
mismanagement were both honored, celebrated, protected and defended
under the leadership of Ngozi Iweala as the supervising coordinator of
the Nigerian economy. To give a honorary doctorate degree to an
undeserving Nigerian by this world's reknown university is the biggest
slap on the faces of the 180 million Nigerians in 2015. I am using
this social medium to appeal to the board of regents of this
prestigious university to withdraw this honorary degree that they
awarded to this Nigerian immediately and without any further delay for
the sake of posterity.
