Theophilus Danjuma on Tuesday lambasted Diezani Alison-Madueke, a former petroleum minister.
Danjuma, former Nigerian Chief of Army Staff.
Danjuma while speaking in Enugu State at the opening of the Goodwill Medical Centre said Diezani is the only Nigerian woman who has excelled in corruption.
He stated that Diezani set a record that has yet to be broken.
In his words:“I used to say that if you want anything properly done and deliver on time without any excuses, give the job to a woman, until we had a female minister of petroleum. That woman excelled in corruption. She set a record that is yet to be beaten by anybody.
“So, I was in the process of reviewing that my statement when I met one lady, Prof. Uche Amazigo. Uche and I have come a very long way. My first encounter with Uche was around mid-October 2010 when she, accompanied by Mrs. Franca Ilamiji, another Igbo woman.”
