ANNE WELSH THE CEO OF OBASANJO FOUNDATION SCAKED BY OBASANJO OVER MONEY LAUNDERING $4.9M
It is becoming clearer why the former President Olusegun Obasanjo has been jittery since the anti corruptioncrusader Buhari was elected. If you listen to Buhari carefully he accuses PDP of ruining the country for the past 16 years without naming names but indeed Obasanjo was at helm for 8 years of what Buhari refers to as Corrupt and terrible. Little wonder he has been paying solidarity visits at least 4 in the open and others secretly . More corruption by Obasanjo will be exposed in due course that he always out rightly denies .
IBB is known to be corrupt but has not been making such solidarity visits. Time will tell what exactly is in the mind of the WAR AGAINST INDISCIPLINE GENERAL CRUSADER BUHARI.
The Olusegun Obasanjo Foundation has sacked its CEO and Board of Trustees member, Anne Welsh, following a video published online by SaharaReporters on Thursday, May 7, which showed Welsh scheming with a group of ‘Lebanese businessmen’ to launder $4.9 million through the Foundation. Pulse reported that Welsh, according to the video, exploited the Ebola Virus Disease tragedy in West Africa to help the group, who wished to donate money to the Obasanjo Foundation for some work in Sierra Leone » .
Welsh stated at the meeting, held in London, that it was not the first time she would be involved in such deals. In the deal, it was agreed that she would pocket over one million dollars. In reaction to the development, Chairman of the foundation, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo said that he, and other trustees of the foundation were sad after learning about the allegation against Welsh.
“Accordingly, the Board of Trustees has asked her to immediately resign, and she has done so,” Obasanjo told Premium Times. The former president also said that the matter has been reported to the London Metropolitan Polce and the UK Charity Commission for a full-scale investigation.
He added, “I can never associate myself with anything that has to do with money laundering and corruption, and this is a very disturbing development for us all.” However, in what seems to be an attempt to escape public scrutiny, Welsh has taken down her Facebook page and Website.
