Former Economic and Financial Crime Commission chairperson, Madam Farida Waziri recently commented that she is “thankful” to Jonathan for removing her as the Head of the Anti-Corruption agency.

Revelation has emerged that the Former Assistant Inspector General of Police actually wrote Former President Olusegun Obasanjo to help her persuading to the then President Jonathan to reappoint her for second term.

The letter which was dated 24th of June, 2011 reads in part ” I am writing this letter to seek your indulgence to compel President Goodluck Jonathan to reconfirm me for a second term as Chairman of EFCC. My tenure will expire in May 2012.

“I am already working on modalities to bring Ex-Governor Gbenga Daniel to account for his atrocities and insult on your good self. It is the evil machinations of Gbenga Daniel that made your daughter to lose her election which is an insult on your personality in Ogun State.

The letter continues “I hope that you are satisfied with the treatment meted out Dimeji Bankole for the insults on your revered person. How can a little boy want to hijack Ogun State politics just because he got the opportunity to become a Speaker of the Federal Republic?

The letter concluded that “I will be most grateful if you can talk to President Goodluck Jonathan to retain me”
