I Could Not Afford To Pay My Mom’s House Rent When I Was In Government

    A former Minister of Education, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili, during a
    live interview at the ongoing national convention of the Foursquare Gospel
    Church, at the Foursquare Camp, Ajebo, Ogun State yesterday has disclosed that
    she never embezzled money during her tenure as a Minister of Education in
    Nigeria. Here’s what she said.
    “There were times I couldn’t pay my mother’s rent, not
    because I couldn’t make a choice and build her a mansion. When I was in
    government, we had to withdraw our three children from their school to Baptist
    Special School. I was (just) answering big titles. Some of you would have said,
    ‘They are eating our money’. May God save those who speak without knowledge! I
    am not saying this so that you can say I am holy, I have my shortcomings.

    “Integrity will cost you a lot. Anyone who talks about
    integrity without the cost is preaching what I do not know about. Integrity can
    require a supreme cost from you. You will be persecuted for making the choice
    of integrity but make that choice nonetheless.’’
