Bolaji Abdullahi alleged Ex Ministers plotting to stop him from publishing his book on Goodluck Jonathan

Few former ministers in the government of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan are allegedly weighing the options to use in stopping the release of ‘On a Platter of Gold’, a book written by Bolaji Abdullahi, spokesman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

we understands that the ex-ministers are worried that the author might use the book as an avenue to hit back at Jonathan for relieving him of his duties as minister of sport.
Jonathan sacked Abdullahi in 2014 allegedly because of his relationship with Bukola Saraki who joined some influential personalities to defect from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Abdullahi has described his book as an exclusive account of the “making and the unmaking” of Jonathan’s government.

In a statement issued earlier in the month, he announced that the book, which gives revelations of the intrigues that surrounded the 2015 presidential election and its aftermath, would be out in October.
“The book, which has the subtitle, ‘How Jonathan Won and Lost Nigeria’, is introduced as follows,” he had said.

“Was Goodluck Jonathan weak and clueless, as his traducers have claimed? Or – as his supporters have alleged – was he just a victim of vicious conspiracies by an entitled cabal that would stop at nothing to bring down this ‘intruder’ to power?”

Led by Taminu Turaki, former minister of special duties and Abubakar Sulaiman, former minister of national planning, Jonathan’s loyalists are said to be working on strategies to use in achieving their goal.
