Government gets ready to blame Ngozi Okonjo Iweala for everything

Lagos - As the race heats up for the position of World Bank president, news reaching this newspaper indicates that the Nigerian government is working round the clock to ensure that Nigerian candidate, Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, gets the job.

So confident is the government now of NOI's success, that several panels have been set up in anticipation of her victory.

Apart from a panel to organize a sendoff party for the finance minister and a panel to advice the President on a suitable foreign based replacement, another panel has been set up to determine how everything that has ever gone wrong in Nigeria during the Goodluck regime is Okonjo Iweala's fault.

This last and very secretive panel has been given an unlimited budget to carry out its duty and has amongst its members a certain Reuben Abati.
