In a series of tweets released
yesterday, the former World Bank VP for Africa, and minister of
education, Dr. Obiageli Ezekwesili turned on her former ally, Dr. Ngozi
Okonjo-Iweala, who is the Coordinating Minister for the Economy and a
former World Bank Managing Director.
Ezekwesili claimed that Iweala had
subbed her in a lecture she gave at the Future Awards Symposium where
she said "We should stop having false debates based on wrong or no
information. Sometimes, I think it’s deliberate"
Upset by the alleged sub, Ezekwesili
released a torrent of tweets where she hit back at her former colleague
and friend (see below). She also released former speeches by
Okonjo-Iweala to back up her claims.
Thereafter she again threw the gauntlet down and challenged Iweala to take her up on her demand of a public debate.
